The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 819
âClassic French? What is even going on anymore?!â
Everyone was utterly stunned.
Seeing that a top socialite in Yanken was behaving so respectfully toward Gerald, Bea was extremely happy.
âRegardless, itâs truly been an honor to meet you here today, Mr. Gerald! Iâll be personally bearing all the expenses of anything you order here tonight!â said Delilah as she politely stretched her hand out toward Gerald. In her eyes, the value of befriending such a powerful figure as Gerald certainly outweighed the cost of one nightâs bill.
In response, Gerald reached out as well and shook Delilahâs hand before saying, âItâs a pleasure, Miss Delilah!â
After Delilah finally left, the room was greeted by an almost pressuring silence. Yura in particular, felt like he had just received the most massive slap in his life. He had been completely embarrassed in front of all the others.
ââ¦C-could I⦠Try one of your cigarettes, Gerald?â asked one of the cousins there as he looked at Gerald. After seeing Geraldâs slight nod, he took a cigarette for himself before lighting the tip.
When he saw this, Yura squinted his eyes slightly as he glared at Gerald with a frigid gaze. After that, he stepped out of the room in the pretense that he needed to answer a phone call.
Nobody had ever dared to go against Yura, even when he was only a child. To think that this countryside pauper actually dared to go against him! Gerald had even made him lose face before such a beautiful goddess!
Yanken was Yuraâs territory, and he would rather be dead than lose to Gerald. Once he was outside, he lit a cigarette before making a call.
âAh, hey Brandon, you busy?â asked Yura as he released a puff of smoke.
âNot at all, just hanging out. Still, a call out of the blue, Yura? Could it be that you have a job for me?â
replied Brandon in a voice that hinted at his eagerness as he laughed.
âNothing too big. Iâm just in a bad mood since someone actually dared to trample all over me!â
âHahaha! Who would dare do such a thing in Yanken? The audacity! Who is it, Yura? Iâll get rid of them immediately!â
âThereâs no need to go that far! However, I do want you to thoroughly embarrass him!â replied Yura before sharing his location with Brandon.
âHah! What a coincidence! I happen to be drinking with a few of my subordinates around the area! Iâll be heading over immediately!â
Yura sneered as he ended the call. He then continued standing outside as he smoked on his cigarette.
This definitely wasnât the first time he was doing something like this, and it wouldnât be his last.
âSay Xoey, do you or anyone else need to use the bathroom? Letâs go together!â said one of the girls back inside the room.
In response to that, Bea and a few others headed out together.
Giya, on the other hand, glared secretly at Gerald. She had been waiting for him to take the initiative to speak to her the entire time.
However, he was simply sitting there calmly while munching on fruits! It didnât seem like he was going to make a move at all!
In the end, her anxiety got the better of her and she couldnât help but ask, âSo⦠are⦠you and Mila doing fine?â
Though everyone else didnât know his true identity, Giya was well aware of who Gerald truly was.
ââ¦Milaâs gone missing,â replied Gerald as he felt a surge of pain in his heart the moment he heard her name again.
He wasnât even sure if he would be able to persuade his grandmother on the day of her birthday. No matter what, Gerald knew he had to mend the relationship between both families. If he failed, nobody else would be able to talk to the Moldell family on his behalf.
ââ¦What? What happened?â asked Giya in surprise.
ââ¦Iâll tell you about it when I have a chance to in the future!â replied Gerald in a casual tone.
âHey, Giya, whoâs this Mila girl? Oh god, could she be Geraldâs girlfriend? Someone like him actually has the ability to get a girlfriend?!â said Marilyn, her shock apparent in her voice.
Realizing that she had just brought up something that greatly upset Gerald, Giya didnât reply to Marilynâs question.
âHello? Why arenât any of you saying anything? Who is this Mila?â
Before Marilyn could continue pestering the duo, Xoey came rushing back into the room.
