Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 536
The both of them then hung up the phone.
Gerald felt a slight pang of guilt. He felt sorry for Mila.
But on second thought, he knew that this was not for real. They were just going to meet each other for a while, and that was not a big deal.
On the other hand, in the room.
Michelle hung up the phone and began removing her makeup.
Her younger sister, Xabrina was eavesdropping on their conversation while lying on the bed.
She then chuckled. âSister, so youâre going to meet each other tomorrow. By the way, whatâs his name?
Do you know him?â
âHeâs Gerald Crawford. He studied in First Middle School before. Hmm⦠but why do I feel that his name is so strangely familiar? Seems like Iâve heard it somewhere before.â Michelle said as she continued removing her makeup.
Both sisters had quite a charm to themselves.
Xabrina scoffed and laughed, âGeez, how much dumber can you get? Sister, heâs one year younger than you, and he studied in First Middle School. You can simply just get somebody to inquire about him from your juniors in the school. Then youâll know more about him, right?â
âYouâre right. Iâll inquire about it then!â Michelle jumped up and immediately started making phone calls.
She called a few female juniors to inquire about Gerald.
The moment she was done, her face turned pale.
âD*mn it! How dare grandpa introduce such a person to me?â Michelle voiced out anxiously.
âEh? Sister, whatâs wrong?â
âSister, you donât know about this. Gerald is an infamous poor student back in First Middle School. His family is so poor, so much so that his parents and elder sister are out there doing manual labor.
Besides, when he was studying in middle school, he was always bullied by the others. No wonder he couldnât find a job even after he graduated from university. His family is so poor. Certainly he couldnât find a good job!â
Michelle cried out.
âD*mn! What are you gonna do then? Youâve promised him. Besides, itâs not like youâre able to bypass grandpa either!â
Her sister replied, feeling equally exasperated.
âI donât care. Even if I canât find myself a boyfriend, Iâll definitely never get together with someone as such. Oh my goodness! If my classmates or best friends knew that Iâm dating this infamous poor student, we would definitely be a laughing stock in no time!â
Michelle said in a worried tone.
Since she was just a girl, she would certainly care about what the othersâ opinions were.
Everyone wanted to find themselves the kind of boyfriend who would be the talk of the town, in a good way. The more people praised their boyfriends, the happier the girls would feel.
âBut Gerald turned out to be like this⦠Ahh! I donât want to think about it anymore! I need to go and tell mother all about it.â
Desperate and lost, Michelle called her mother.
She then told her mother all about Gerald.
Her mother was being put in a difficult position too.
âOh dear, that wonât do. Dating him is as good as telling the rest that my daughter couldnât find herself a boyfriend and just picked some random guy. How could this be?! No way! Itâs better to reject him firmly!â Her mother said.
âBut mom, you do know how grandpaâs temper is. He likes to keep his reputation. If heâs being humiliated in front of his friends, he might not be able to eat or sleep well. Then Dad will be angry with you too, right?â
Xabrina asked worriedly.
Her mother let out a loud sigh. âThen what should we do? Okay, how about this. Elle, just go and meet him tomorrow. Immediately reject him and come home!â
Her mother suggested.
âBut Iâm afraid that Iâll bump into my classmates!â Michelle said.
The thought never occurred to Michelle previously. But now, Michelle cared about that a lot.
âWhat if my friends or classmates see us?â She cried out.
Her mother felt anxious too. âWhat can we do now, though? It seems like you donât want to go!â
âHey, mom, I have a solution. Why not, letâs ask our little sister to go then. Sheâs two years younger than him. Besides, sheâs quite cheerful. Itâll be easier for her to reject him!â
Her mother said, âThatâll do too. Xabrina, just go there on behalf of your sister. After all, youâre more eloquent than I am!â
Xabrina nodded slowly and replied, âI can do that. But sister, after the university term reopens and I become a junior, please give me more pocket money!â
âNo problem!â
The entire family smiled as they were happy with their decision.
Xabrina sneered. She then thought to herself:
âHow could a man like him ever dream of marrying a pretty girl? Iâll humiliate him to the core tomorrow.
Otherwise, Iâm not ever Xabrina!â
