Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 552

“Hold it Gerald! Explain yourself!” said Queeny as she rushed toward him. Her face was deathly pale and she seemed very shaken up.

Just like all the others, she didn’t know how Gerald had been able to turn the tables so easily. She had always looked down on him. The moment Gerald had successfully intervened, Queeny felt as though she had just been crushed by a boulder. In her mind, she was continually wishing that it was someone else who was holding on to that much power. Anyone would do. Anyone but Gerald.

‘Why did he refer to Gerald as Mr. Crawford?’

‘Wasn’t he merely some lowlife? Why, oh why…’

These were the thoughts flooding Queeny’s mind. She felt extremely upset.

“What do you want?” asked Gerald dismissively.

‘If it wasn’t for Mr. Winters, I wouldn’t even be wasting my time fooling around with you people,’ Gerald thought to himself.

“Explain yourself right this instant! Why was that guy so respectful toward you? He even seemed scared of you! What’s your relation with him?” asked Queenie.

“Don’t ask things you’re not supposed to. Have fun with the rest of your trip. Don’t worry, I’ll be sure to tell them to leave you guys alone,” replied Gerald before exiting the restaurant.

As he walked past Michelle, she stared at him with mixed emotions. She hadn’t expected him to be such a powerful individual. She wasn’t able to tell at all.

With her cheeks burning up, Michelle was feeling no different from Queeny. In fact, she was arguably more upset than Queenie was.

At that moment, her only concern was Gerald’s actual background. Who was this man?

“No… There’s just no way! It couldn’t have been that lowlife who got us in! It was Jarvis! It must have been!” yelled Yolanda in denial.

Jarvis simply clenched his teeth as he gave his father a call. It turned out that Mr. Edward hadn’t even given them a proper response!

“What the f*ck! Who is Gerald, really?” Queeny was now immensely curious. She wasn’t interested in talking to anyone else but Gerald now. She immediately rushed out of the restaurant, hoping to catch up to Gerald.

Meanwhile, Blake handed Gerald a cup of water before saying, “Mr. Crawford, don’t you remember?

Tomorrow’s your birthday! And Mr. Lyle told us to organize something for you!”

‘So they were going to throw me a party’ Gerald thought.

Gerald knew Zack very well. He must have just wanted to give Gerald a nice birthday. However, Gerald would very much have preferred simply inviting a few people over to dinner. That alone would still be as meaningful to him. Still, the decorating process had already begun, so Gerald didn’t plan to interfere since all that effort had already been done.

As both of them entered Blake’s office, Gerald felt instantly relieved. The inside of the room was cold, and Gerald was finally able to take a rest. He breathed a sigh of relief the moment he sat down on a chair.

Blake, on the other hand, stood next to him politely. He didn’t dare utter a single word unless Gerald questioned him about anything.

All of a sudden, the office door slammed open.

“Gerald! I need to hear the truth! Please tell me what happened back there!”

A girl had burst into the office, and it wasn’t just any girl. It was Queeny Winters. She had been observing them from the window.

She could see that Gerald was sitting on the chair at the desk while the big man from before simply stood beside him politely. Queeny felt like she was going insane.
