Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 664
After all, even she would be able to show off slightly if he truly came.
âWhat are you guys talking about?â said Hallie with a snicker as she approached Mila and Molly who had been whispering to each other for a while now.
âNothing much. Also, Hallie, while itâs true that youâve been freely toying around with us, donât ever try to cross the line. Consider this to be a fair warning if you wish to live to see another day! Iâve already told you that Milaâs boyfriend is Mr. Crawford from Mayberry, an extremely powerful man! He may even come today, and if he does, well⦠Youâll just have to wait to find out!â replied Molly.
âHahaha! Oh no⦠Iâm terrified⦠Please, Iâve heard of several rich people in my life, but never have I heard of⦠Whatâs his name again? Crawford from Mayberry? Haha!â sneered Hallie sarcastically.
âOh, you just wait and see, Hallie! You just wait and see!â said Molly in response.
As soon as her sentence ended, the crowdâs excitement seemed to suddenly escalate as ten dazzling sports cars, unlike any of the previous ones, arrived at the scene.
It was surprising to see such expensive cars here, to say the least.
Even Hallie was shocked speechless. While she had seen many expensive sports cars before in her life, this was the first time she was seeing a convoy of this many luxury cars together.
Before the cars had even stopped, a few staff members dressed in suits were already rushing toward the greeting hostessâs side while shouting, âMr. Crawford, the director of Dream Investment Group has arrived!â
Those who heard that felt chills run down their spines.
âHurry! Mr. Crawfordâs already here!â
âWhat? Heâs arrived early!â
The entire group still seemed to be in utter shock as the hosts and hostesses began running downstairs to greet him.
After all, though there were many other VIPs, Mr. Crawford was still the most important person today.
Even several of the businessmen and heirs that had earlier entered exited again, just to greet him after hearing word about his arrival.
ââ¦What? Mr. Crawford exists?!â
At that moment, Hallieâs face was the palest anyone had ever seen. It was as though her heart almost stopped beating.
After seeing the commotion happening before her eyes, she no longer doubted that Mr. Crawford was indeed, the most important person of the day.
It didnât take long for her to snap out of it, and once she did, she immediately threw jealous glances at Mila as she said incredulously, âYou said Mr. Crawfordâs your boyfriend? How could that even be possible?â
Could it really be that she was never actually a match for Mila Smith to begin with?
How was she always this lucky? To be even able to have such a powerful and wealthy boyfriend?
âHah! You look star-struck! Every word we said was true! Mila here is Mr. Crawfordâs girlfriend!â replied Molly excitedly.
She wanted to see how Hallie would react after being beaten in her own game.
Mila on the other hand, had her eyes peeled on the convoy before her.
She wasnât really expecting any help from Gerald. Rather, she was thinking about how she hadnât even had the chance to talk to him properly despite having returned to Mayberry briefly that day.
Saying that she didnât regret resenting Gerald was a big fat lie.
âHoly f*ck! This should be the most luxurious convoy weâll be able to see tonight, right?â exclaimed someone from within the crowd.
âIâd assume so! Each of the ten cars in there costs at least three million dollars! Thatâs like thirty million dollars in total!â
As many from within the crowd gasped in surprise after hearing that, the cars finally stopped moving forward.
âMr. Crawfordâs here!â shouted a man.
Following that announcement, fireworks were set off on the television buildingâs top floor, and the night sky was instantly painted with beautiful bursts of colors.
Simultaneously, water was also shot out from the water fountains on both sides of the pond while the staff carefully began raising a massive flag.
Mila herself had her head lifted, nervously looking out for Gerald.
