The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 545
Two men greeted them.
Both Queenie and Yolanda then led Gerald there, who was carrying a large and small bag.
âWhy did you arrive so late? Oh, hey, you indeed found someone. Thatâs good. It seems like we can enjoy ourselves fully today. Bro, thank you for your help.â
A man walked over and held Queenieâs waist. He looked at Gerald, smiled, and thanked him.
Another man then took out a pack of Marlboroâs and attempted to offer a stick to Gerald.
âJarvis, are you seriously giving him a cigarette? Heâs not a smoker. Besides, even if he is, itâs not like he can afford such a good one!â Queenie scoffed.
âHis name is Gerald, and heâs the guy Iâve told you about. Heâs going to help us to carry our bags today.
Weâll only need to buy him a meal this afternoon.â
Queenie then held the manâs hand and said, âGerald, this person who just offered you a cigarette is called Jarvis Fish. His parents are working in Water Utilities in the county. This is my boyfriendâHugo Wayman. His family owns factories.â
As Queenie introduced Hugo to Gerald, she carefully observed Geraldâs facial expression and reaction.
She was eager to see what kind of response he would have given that she had found herself such a capable boyfriend.
But much to her dismay, Gerald just nodded nonchalantly, unfazed.
Both Hugo and Jarvis were only pretending to be nice to Gerald. In actual fact, they were quite arrogant men who loved extravagance.
How could one tell?
It was because they just handed Gerald a backpack before they went to buy drinks.
In the end, they only bought four bottles of drinks. They did not bother about Gerald.
But after thinking about it, Gerald decided just to let it go. He would just treat it like he was there having fun by himself. He would act as if they did not exist.
Besides, Queenie was there. What more could he do?
âEh? Hugo, why are there so many people here in the hot springs? There are lanterns and lights everywhere. What are they going to do?â
Queenie asked curiously.
âI was discussing this with Jarvis just now. There are a lot of people here today. The staff looks really busy too. From the way things look, it seems like they will hold a big event, probably at the Hot Spring Hotel. I asked the security guard about it just now. I heard that the hotel has been reserved by a few influential bosses from Mayberry, and theyâre going to have a huge, important function here tomorrow!
A lot of big shots will be there! Why? Didnât you hear about it since Touin is so close to Fuentin?â
Hugo said.
âNo, we didnât hear about it. Hmm, but letâs not be bothered. Come! Letâs go and have fun now!â
âYes, sounds good! Letâs go!â
They then went ahead to buy the tickets.
The price of the tickets in a village town as such was not that expensive. It was only around seven dollars per ticket.
When they reached the ticketing booth, they saw a few people arguing there.
It seemed as though they were quarreling with the ticket seller.
âWhy arenât you selling the tickets today? The five of us purposely came all the way here today! Why canât you sell us the tickets?â
A girl who seemed to be the leader of the gang asked coldly.
There were three women and two men in that group.
âYeah! Youâve only posted the news on your official website now. But weâve already come all the way here!â
âIâm so sorry. We also received a last-minute notice just fifteen minutes ago. Our tourism spot wonât be opened to any tourists. Itâs because we need to decorate the venues for many important functions.â
The staff explained the situation patiently.
âBut how about the tourists who entered the place just now? I didnât see you asking them to leave. I donât care. It was just fifteen minutes ago. You have to let us in!â
âWeâre truly sorryâ¦â
That fueled their impatience and anger.
âDmn! The tourism spot just got closed! Fck! If I knew earlier, I wouldâve bought the tickets with Jarvis just now!â
âThen, Hugo, what should we do now?â
Queenie asked in disappointment.
âHow about this? Let me call my dad and ask him to use his connections and give it a try!â
Hugo then whipped out his phone.
Jarvis also said, âIâll call up my dad too. He knows the vice manager here!â
âAlright. Jarvis, I believe in you!â
The guys proceeded to make the phone calls.
Queenie then took some tissue paper and helped to dab away the sweat on Hugoâs forehead.
âHey you, come here, give me my bag!â
Seeing Queenie, Yolanda quickly rushed Gerald over to get her bag.
âD*mn! Hurry up! How could you be so slow?â
Gerald then put the big bag down and started looking for her small bag.
Yolanda immediately scolded him.
âHurry up and give it to me! Youâre so slow!â
âFound it!â
