Chapter 551
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 551
Gerald had intervened because he couldnât stand watching Jarvis and Yolanda continue to abuse his power. Besides, Gerald finally remembered who Blake Wadford was. He was the one who had organized a birthday party for Elena Larson.
Gerald had been occupied with Lilian during the party, so he was only able to have a short talk with Blake back then. They were acquainted at most. However, Jarvis and Yolanda were clearly crossing the line, all because he wanted to keep a low profile.
If they were his close friends, he wouldâve just let it slide. However, these two were complete nobodies.
âWhy should I remain quiet and let these idiots have their way with my men?â Gerald thought to himself.
âM-Mr. Crawford? You were here this entire time?â Blake knew that he was screwed the moment he saw Gerald. It was as though his heart had just dropped all the way down into his stomach.
He had been angry after hearing that his beloved daughter had been hurt.Since all his attention had been focused on Yolanda and Jarvis, Blake hadnât really paid much attention to anyone else. However, seeing Gerald before him now, he instantly knew that there was a major misunderstanding.
âF*ck, everything makes sense now!â Blake thought.
Blake had been very confused as he had never heard of Thomas Fish before. So it turned out that the VIP in question was Gerald after all. Since Mr. Lyle hadnât wanted to expose Geraldâs true identity, he didnât explain much to the managers, which led to this misunderstanding.
âYeah, Iâm just here to take a break!â said Gerald with a smile as he nodded. Michelle and the others were stunned.
What was happening? This man knew Gerald?
âHey! Are you done talking? Come back here and let me slap you!â
Yolanda was clearly still very angry.
As she lunged toward him, Blake simply slapped Yolanda with full force, sending her falling to the ground.
âBeat these brats up!â ordered Blake without hesitation. With Gerald around, he knew that he had nothing to be worried about anymore. Blake turned to look at Geraldâs expression, but Gerald simply avoided his gaze. This meant that he wouldnât intervene with whatever Blake was going to do to the two.
The employees were all panicking at the sight of this. Blake, however, simply approached Gerald respectfully before saying, âMr. Crawford, if I had known that you were coming, I wouldâve gladly escorted you! You didnât have to waste such effort and ask Mr. Lyle for help!â
âThatâs quite alright, it was just an impulsive decision. This group didnât seem to be giving up and I didnât want to stand under the sun for any longer. I just pulled a few strings here and there and thatâs how we got in,â explained Gerald. Now everyone knew what the true story was.
ââ¦What? Gerald, you were the one who got us in?â asked Queeny in disbelief. Michelle couldnât believe it either. There was just no way that was true!
However, just from his conversation with Blake, everyone there was now sure that Gerald had his fair share of connections as well. After all, the barbarian of a man had bowed down to Gerald and was even talking to him respectfully.
At that moment, all the girlsâ opinions on Gerald changed instantly. Though nobody had acknowledged his presence previously, he was the actual person who had gotten all of them in.
It was a plausible explanation as well. After all, Jarvis had only contacted Mr. Edward. How on earth could he have made the managers rush in to welcome their arrival?
âMr. Crawfordâ¦â Gerald noticed that Blake had something to say.
âAh, can we talk about this in the office? Iâll be there in a bit, Mr. Wadford,â interrupted Gerald with a nod.
âOf course, Mr. Crawford!â said Blake as he led his bodyguards out of the restaurant.
Gerald had an idea of what Blake wanted to talk to him about. He finally understood why Sunny Springs seemed much grander than usual.
A big event tomorrow?
There was a high possibility that Zack had ordered Blake to organize a party for his birthday.
Gerald had wanted to clear his doubts by questioning Blake. However, it was a private matter, he didnât want Queeny and the others to know about this.
After glaring at Jarvis, who was still a total mess, Gerald left the restaurant.
