The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 485
âKnow Aunt Lacy and her family, Gerald?â
Gerald previously drove a Mercedes-Benz G500 at the hospital, and he even knew the countyâs leader.
It really surprised Xella.
Frankly, Gerald was quite charismatic that day.
That said, regardless of circumstance, Gerald was still inferior compared to Waylon and Jacky, who were standing next to her.
Waylonâs family owned a huge empire. He had also started his own company and became a boss at such a young age.
Although Waylon didnât drive a car as posh as Geraldâs Mercedes Benz G500, he had higher prospects compared to Gerald.
As for Jacky, Xella suspected that he was the one who helped her the last time as the deputy manager of the personnel department.
He was a large organization manager, and he had very high standards in the public institution. He was also rewarded with a very high bonus and dividend at the end of the year.
Plus, Jacky also owned a business.
He was a handsome, eligible white-collar worker.
What about Gerald? What else did he have?
Although Gerald was one of the more capable ones from their class, Xella no longer had the kind of affection that she felt for him during high school.
âYes, I know them! How unexpected that the guestsâ Aunt Lacy invited for lunch today are you guys!
Such a coincidence!â replied Gerald as he nodded.
Although some of them werenât fans of Gerald, they all sat at the same dinner table, eating, drinking, and chatting with each other.
Gerald, who was sitting at the side, could sense that something was different this time.
It seemed as though Waylon and Xella were no longer as close as how they used to be.
To further explain, back then, Xella used to be really attached to Waylon, and Waylon had always been interested in Xella too.
But strangely, at lunch today, most of Xellaâs attention was focused on Jacky.
Waylon would sometimes throw a cold stare at Gerald before stealing glances at Jacky, envy dripping all over his face.
It was apparent that he didnât look happy, but not to the point of being too upset.
Cindyâs appearance really brightened up his day.
She was as gorgeous as Xella, but with a bonus look of innocence on herâpure and delicate.
Despite his jealousy toward Jacky, Waylon had put in a conscious effort to show his affection and favor to Cindy.
Milo was also captivated by Cindyâs beauty and tried to make moves too. But upon seeing the look on Waylonâs face, Milo quickly held back all of his advances.
What was even more embarrassing was the fact that Cindy seemed to be interested in Gerald. The whole time, she had been using her own chopsticks, picking up the food and leaving them on Geraldâs plate.
Her gesture really upset Waylon and Milo.
Although this lunch seemed to be peaceful on the surface, many little internal battles were going on behind the scenes.
Waylon quickly glanced at Gerald before he winked at Milo. After that, both excused themselves, saying that they had to go to the washroom.
âWaylon, whatâs the matter? Are you interested in Cindy? She is myâ¦â
Milo spoke up.
âShut up. We are not going to talk about that first. I mean, look. The opportunity has finally come for me to settle things with Gerald. I want to take advantage of this opportunity to make sure that this b*tch, Xella, and that girl, Cindy, have some respect for me!â
Waylon could not hide his sullen expression as he cringed at how awkward and embarrassing the atmosphere was at the dining table earlier.
âWhat? Are you serious, Waylon? Youâre going to deal with Gerald, like now? I mean, how?â
Milo got a little excited at the thought.
During the last fight, besides Cameron, Milo got himself involved too. Milo had also always been tagging along with Waylon ever since their high school days.
Miloâs family ran a factory and was rich, but he fought very well.
âBy the way, when we went out for drinks about two days ago, was that your brother, Warrick, who does like underground dealings? Why donât we do this then? Perhaps you could give Big War a ring later.
Tell him to come over and just give these bunch a little scare. And once the matter seems unsolvable, I will ask my godbrother, Jaxon, to give him a call then. Hah! And in Serene County, everyone knows how no one in the world wouldnât dare give face to Jaxon!â
âOn second thought, tell him to not just give them a scare. It would be best if they could belittle Gerald;
beat him up nicely. I want him to embarrass himself!â Waylon growled.
Milo was amazed when he heard Waylonâs suggestion.
âThat is a brilliant idea!â
âYes. Jaxon had been feeling very sorry towards me because he couldnât help me with the matter the last time. All the more, I am his godbrother. He promised me that he would definitely help me take care of things if I ran into any difficulties in the future!â
Waylon exclaimed proudly.
âOkay, then! Letâs do that then. Let me give Big War a call now!â
Milo then hurriedly dialed on his phone.
The both of them then returned to the room casually, but deep down, they could barely contain their excitement.
Gerald, enjoying his pork trotters at the side, could not help but wonder why both of them were laughing gleefully amongst themselves.
Not long after, there was a loud commotion outside.
âWhat do you think you guys are doing? You cannot go in there!â
