Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 576
By then, Gerald had already returned to the dormitory.
When Harper and Benjamin saw him, they immediately rushed over to give him a big hug.
âWelcome back, Gerald!â
He was very pleased to see them as well. In no time at all, the three of them started chatting and catching up with one another.
Gerald had returned to the campus first just to see Harper and Benjamin. He would later still have to head to his company.
As the trio continued chatting with one another, the dormitory door suddenly creaked open.
Gerald was startled when he saw an unfamiliar girl standing at the door.
âBrother!â shouted the girl happily as she looked at Harper.
âHello, Benjamin! And you must be Gerald, right?â
âThat I am. Nice to meet you! Are you Harperâs younger sister?â asked Gerald.
âI am! My nameâs Roseanne! Youâre so handsome, Gerald!â replied Roseanne with a smile.
âSpeaking of which, my brother told me that heâs bringing me out for lunch with my new roommates later. Are you coming along with us too, Gerald?â asked Roseanne this time.
It seemed to Gerald that Harper had mentioned him quite often to his sister.
âIâd love to have lunch together, but I donât think Iâll have the time to, since I still have to return to the office for a short while. How about this, you guys can go have lunch together first and Iâll make some other arrangements for us later in the evening. Iâll treat you all to a nice meal later!â suggested Gerald as he smiled.
âI see! Thatâs not good⦠Alright, Gerald! You should attend to your things firstâ¦â said Roseanne, her voice slightly upset. Her eyes reflected her slight disappointment as well.
However, they quickly lit up again as she asked, âActually, what time will you be done, Gerald? Youâll still have to have lunch, right? If youâre only going to your office for a short while, you can still join us!
Weâll just have our lunch a little later than usual!â
âThatâs true. If I have nothing else going on later, Iâll definitely join all of you for lunch! Well, I better get going now so that I can finish up what I need to do faster!â
Gerald felt like he couldnât turn her down a second time.
âAlright, letâs go down together! My brotherâs going to be bringing me around anyway and my friends are already waiting for me downstairs!â suggested Roseanne.
The four of them then headed downstairs together and after exiting, they saw a few girls standing right outside the dormitory.
It was only the first day of orientation but almost everyoneâs faces looked a little bored. Despite that, having bored expressions didnât change the fact that a few of the girls still looked very beautiful.
After greeting them, Gerald accompanied the group and walked with them for a while before leaving the university and returning to the company.
âHey, hey! That seniorâs really handsome!â
The moment Gerald left, a few of the girls immediately started talking about him.
It was natural since the common topic of discussion for female freshmen was usually about guys.
Theyâd talk about which guy in class was most and least handsome, which senior they walked past looked the most flawless and so forth.
This was usually the case for the boys too though in the reverse gender.
âI know right? Heâs kind of gentle and he has quite a good temperament as well!â
Several other girls were now chiming in as well.
âDoes Gerald have a girlfriend, Harper?â asked one of the girls.
He simply smiled before replying, âOf course he does. Actually, do you girls know who he really is? I donât think Iâve even told Roseanne about his true identity yet.â
âOh? Who is he really?â asked Roseanne curiously.
âWell, have you girls heard about the mysterious Mr. Crawford from Mayberry City?â asked Harper in a suspenseful tone.
âWhat? Isnât he that amazingly rich heir from Mayberry City? Aside from him being wealthy, Iâve also read a post on some forum stating that more than half of the big and reputable figures in the Sunnydale Province attended Mr. Crawfordâs birthday banquet!â
The girls were surprised to hear Mr. Crawford being brought up. They obviously knew who he was.
âWell, thatâs him! Geraldâs Mr. Crawford in the flesh!â
The girls all immediately began either screaming or squealing.
