Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 652
This was the reason why she wanted to have a nice chat with Mila first.
âWhat do you want to talk about? Spit it out already!â said Mila as both of them arrived at a park.
âIâll be frank with you. Itâd honestly be better for me if you broke up with Gerald. I wonât hide the fact that I do indeed, love him, and Iâve tried to gain his affection on multiple occasions!â said Giya.
Miya simply looked to the side without saying anything.
âHowever, itâs exactly because I love him that I can see how loyal he is to you. Iâm not making any of this up either. His feelings for you have remained unchanged from the very beginning. No matter how much Iâve tried to earn his affection, he simply ignored every one of my advances. This is just my two cents, but if you do end up breaking up just because of some misunderstanding about our relationship, heâll definitely experience extreme grief. He really is a kind man who likes helping people out, you know? Even the engagement was just him helping me out. He hasnât done anything to wrong you!â
explained Giya as she looked at Mila.
After that, Giya elaborated more about what Gerald and her had been doing throughout Milaâs absence.
It was honestly beyond Milaâs expectations. To think that so many things had happened to Gerald during that period of time.
However, Mila was honestly slightly jealous and irked by the fact that Gerald had helped Giya so many times.
After thinking about it for a little while longer, however, she realized that Gerald really hadnât done anything wrong.
âI kind of get what you mean now. Do you mean to say that youâve experienced much more with Gerald compared to what I have?â asked Mila.
âIn no way had I meant to indicate that. However, since youâve said it like that, why donât you look at it this way? During your time together with Gerald, what exactly have you done for him? Where were you when Gerald was facing his own difficulties?â
Giya had meant no harm with her words. She honestly just wanted to talk it out with Mila.
âWhat⦠have I done for Gerald? Where was I when Gerald was facing his own difficultiesâ¦?â
The two questions made Mila speechless.
Initially, Mila had just felt that their relationship still had a long way to go since Gerald was still pretty straightforward and insensitive romance-wise. However, she had never considered how she herself hadnât been doing anything for Gerald.
Gerald on the other hand, had constantly been helping and taking good care of her.
Not once had she given anything back to him. What more, she had even misunderstood him and was unwilling to hear his explanation despite having returned unannounced this time.
In fact, he had probably left earlier since he was still busy. She had been a mere distraction to him all this time!
After chatting for a while longer, Mila and Giya parted ways.
Back at home, Mila locked herself in her bedroom the entire afternoon, unwilling to even chat with her friends. She was feeling rather depressed by her new realization.
Her actions made Molly and the others extremely worried.
âWhatâs wrong with Milaâ¦? What did that woman even say to her? They chatted for an entire hour!
Something must have happened!â
âI agree! Milaâs been like that from the moment she got back!â replied Molly as she bit into a potato chip.
âHumph! I say we go ask Mila about this. If that Giya woman had really said something bad to her, letâs just go teach her a lesson!â
After hearing that, the rest of Milaâs friends made their way up to Milaâs bedroom.
âMila, please open the door already!â said Molly in a worried voice.
Soon after, Mila unlocked the door but when the others saw her, they were all equally puzzled.
Mila had packed all her luggage up!
âMila? What are you doing? We havenât even been here for a full day yet!â questioned Wanda.
âI know⦠But I miss Hong Kong already so letâs go back now!â replied Mila.
ââ¦Huh? Right now?â
Everyone was surprised by her rash decision.
âBut Mila⦠What about Gerald? It wasnât easy for you to return, and we know how much you wanted to meet up with him⦠Though there was a great misunderstanding, I honestly feel that Geraldâs innocent this time around!â
âI know, I know⦠Iâm well aware that Gerald would never do any of those things⦠However, Iâm sticking to my decision. I really want to return to Hong Kong now!â said Mila, her eyes now teary.
Mila had earlier tossed and turned in her bed for quite some time, deep in thought about her next move.
She definitely didnât resent Gerald anymore. Honestly, she just wanted him to coax and pacify her.
Though her wish was simple, Giyaâs words continued to echo in her head. What Giya had told her had simply never occurred to her before today.
She was well aware now that she couldnât do anything for Gerald. With that thought in mind, she knew that as long as she stayed here, she would only continue being a burden to him.
That was the moment when she made up her mind to return to Hong Kong. She would work hard and enrich herself to become even stronger.
Her end goal was to one day be able to strike a balance in their relationship.
Seeing how determined she was, her friends said nothing else and quickly began packing up their luggage again for their return trip to Hong Kong.
While they did so, Molly took her phone out before secretly sending a text message to Gerald.
âCome to the airport, quick! Mila is leaving for Hong Kong soon!â
