The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 51

“Oh, Alice is in trouble? That’s fantastic! This isn’t the first time that Alice has targeted Gerald anyway. It seems like there really is a retribution!”

Gerald’s roommates were all gloating at this time.

Harper scratched his head as he said, “But aside from Naomi, Hayley and the rest of the girls had also chased after Alice earlier!”

“Then, what should we do now, Gerald?” Benjamin asked as he looked at Gerald.

Since Naomi was the one who called him, Gerald naturally had to go there. Moreover, all of this was happening in Emperor Karaoke Bar and it was his own property.

“Well, let’s go and check it out then. After all, we all came out here together!”

Gerald could not be bothered about Alice at all but he was helpless at this time.

The group of boys hailed two cabs before they headed straight to Emperor Karaoke Bar.

At this time, in a private room, there were several bottles of red wine that had been smashed to the ground in front of Alice. Moreover, Alice was also aggressively pouring red wine into her mouth.

“Why? Why is Quinton this kind of person? I thought that he was really a gentleman who had just returned from abroad. He always had such a good temperament and he’s so good at everything that he does! I thought that he would always be good and loyal to me!”

“But why? Why is he such a sick and perverted person?”

Glug. Glug.

Alice raised her head before she took a few sips of red wine before she smashed the bottle of red wine onto the ground immediately!

“Alice, stop breaking the wine bottles already! You’ve ordered all the most expensive red wines! We don’t have enough money to pay for all of this!”

Naomi, Hayley and Jacelyn quickly moved all the remaining unopened bottles of red wine away from Alice.

Today’s event had left a great impact on Alice and since it was broadcasted in public, Alice felt really humiliated and she could not stand it anymore. That was the reason she had chosen to come to the Emperor Karaoke Bar to get herself drunk. She had fallen in love with Quinton here and she wanted to forget him here.

That was also the reason she decided to order the most expensive box of red wine at one go.

After taking a few sips, she would just smash the wine bottle.

“Hahaha. This site belongs to my boyfriend, Quinton. As long as my boyfriend says the word, the boss of Emperor Karaoke Bar will just let us go! So what if I smash a few bottles of wine? Who says that I can’t do it?”

Alice really could not believe that her first boyfriend would turn out to be a scoundrel. She was in disbelief!

Therefore, she really wanted to get drunk and forget everything that happened today.

“Naomi, do you think we should call Quinton now? This red wine costs more than three thousand dollars a bottle! Alice has already broken four bottles and we don’t have enough money to pay for all these bottles and the damages!”

“Yes! Call my boyfriend so you can see how amazing he really is!” Alice yelled mockingly.

At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open and Gerald and Harper quickly walked into the room.

Gerald was slightly startled when he saw the mess on the floor. It seemed as though this woman was really crazy when she was upset.

“Gerald, you’re here!”

Naomi hurried over to Gerald. She was really worried and she did not know what to do.

“Hahaha! Did you come over here to make fun of me or to laugh at me?”

Before Gerald could even speak, Alice who was sitting on the sofa was also staring coldly at him as she questioned him.

“Yes, you must be here to laugh at me! Gerald, I know that you hate me for constantly targeting and bullying you. Now that I’m in this situation, you must be the happiest person on earth, right?”

“Alice, you really have a very deep misunderstanding about Gerald. I was the one who called him. I told him that something had happened to you and that you were in trouble, and he rushed over here immediately!” Naomi hurriedly explained.

“Yes, he came here in a hurry because he wants to mock me!”

Gerald really wanted to leave and if Naomi was not there, he would have left without any hesitation at all.

At this time, someone suddenly pushed the door open. One of the security guards had heard the commotion and he walked into the room immediately.

“What is going on here?” the security guard asked as he stared at them with a cold expression on his face.

What was even more of a coincidence was that this security guard was the exact same security guard that they had encountered during the previous incident.

Alice could recognize that he was the same security guard and she said, “Who are you to ask me that question? Get out of here! I want you to call your boss over here now!”

Alice was really acting like a crazy person at this time.

“Hahaha. You want me to call my boss here?” the security guard asked as he looked at the shattered wine bottles on the ground. After that, he sneered before he said, “Alright then, it might actually be a good idea for me to call my boss. After all, you are causing a lot of damage to our room! There aren’t many people who actually dare to act like this here…”

The security guard could not help but feel that this group of people were deliberately creating trouble.

“You’d better call your boss now or you might even lose your job otherwise! Do you know who this girl is? She’s Quinton Ziegler’s girlfriend! The Ziegler family owns Grand Marshall Restaurant on Mayberry Commercial Street. Do I need to explain anything else to you?”

Jacelyn was afraid that they would have to pay for the damages and the bottles of red wine. Therefore, she quickly brought up Quinton without even considering Alice’s feelings.

Unexpectedly, the security guard had a cold expression on his face as he said, “Yes, I know the Ziegler family and I know that they have recently gotten the rights to run the Grand Marshall Restaurant, but what has that got to do with me? Do you really think that you can come to Emperor Karaoke Bar and cause trouble just because you’re friends with the Ziegler family? They are nothing compared to Brother Flynn!”

Jacelyn really did not expect the security guard to be unmoved even after she brought up Quinton’s name.

“Quinton was the one who made the phone call to Mr. Flynn, asking him to apologize to us and let us go the last time! I remember that you were also here that night!”

Jacelyn suddenly felt that something was seriously wrong.

“What? Miss, I think you must have made a mistake. You said that the Ziegler family gave us a call? Even if they had really called, do you think a petty ant like them would be able to make Brother Flynn bow down to them?”

After Jacelyn’s reminder, the security guard finally remembered that this was the same group of people who smashed the arowana fish tank the last time. At this time, his tone eased a little.

After listening to this conversation, Alice finally sobered up a little. The meaning behind the security guard’s words were obvious. The Ziegler family meant nothing to him at all.

So, why should Flynn be bothered by them?

Even though the Ziegler family was powerful, they obviously could not beat Flynn. How could they possibly make Flynn get on his knees?

“Beauties, I think that you must have made a mistake. Let me tell you the truth. The reason Brother Flynn decided to let you guys go the other day was because he received a phone call from our mysterious boss. This has nothing to do with the Ziegler family at all…hahaha!”

“Mysterious boss?” Alice asked as she took a deep breath.

It seemed as though she had been mistaken the whole time! She had even agreed to become Quinton’s girlfriend because she was moved and deeply touched by what he had done for her.

No! How could this be true?

Alice immediately took out her cell phone before she called Quinton. She had to wait for a long time before Quinton finally picked up the phone. It was very noisy and it seemed as though there was still a huge commotion over there.

“Alice, I was wrong. I know that I’m in the wrong. Please forgive me…”

“Quinton, there’s something I want to ask you. Did you or did you not ask your father to call Mr. Lexington to apologize to us at Emperor Karaoke Bar? Did your father ask him to bow down and apologize to us that night?” Alice asked Quinton the question coldly over the phone.

“Ahh? Mr. Lexington? He bowed down and apologized to you? How could that be possible? Mr. Lexington is a close friend of Mr. Lyle. How could he possibly…”

“I understand now!”

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 52

Alice hung up the phone immediately.

This misunderstanding was really too much. At first, Alice had truly believed that it was Quinton.

Alice did not question Quinton regarding this matter in detail because she did not want Quinton to feel that she had agreed to get into a relationship with him simply because she was feeling grateful toward him for his help.

Now, everything was clear.

Quinton had not resolved this matter at all. So, who could it have possibly been?

At this time…

The security guard suddenly received a call from his headset. There was a surprised expression on his face as he replied with three respectful ‘yes’s.

His face turned pale immediately.

Right afterward, the security guard bent over before he bowed and said, “Dear ladies, I am really sorry. I made a mistake. Your consumption here tonight is all free. You… you can leave now!”

Upon saying that, the security guard remained bent over and did not dare to straighten his back at all.

“This…”

Alice and the rest of the girls were all stunned.

This scene was exactly the same as the last time, aside from the fact that Flynn had not made an appearance here today.

Who was the one who had called for help? Who had this kind of power?

Naomi was also extremely surprised. “I think we should head back to the campus first. We will discuss this matter after we get back to the dormitory.”

Then, Naomi looked at Alice with a worried expression on her face.

“Mm… let’s go back first.”

Alice was very confused at this time.

What was the problem?

Who was the one who had been helping them all along?

Everyone was ready to leave the karaoke bar at this time.

“Eh? Where is Gerald?”

Naomi wanted to look for Gerald, but she realized that Gerald was nowhere to be found at all.

“Yes! Where is that Gerald? D*mn it! He was just standing behind me just now!”

“Hmph! I bet he ran away again because he’s afraid that he would have to fork out some money. Isn’t this the same as last time? As soon as he realized that something was wrong, he hurriedly came up with an excuse to leave and go to the bathroom. He only dared to come back after we had already resolved the problem!” Jacelyn said in contempt.

“No! Gerald is not that kind of person!”

Naomi defended Gerald before she continued looking around for him.

Just then, Gerald suddenly opened the door and came into the room.

At the same time, he was putting his cell phone back into his pocket.

“Is everything settled? If everything has been settled, let’s leave now. I’ve called for three cabs and they’re already waiting outside!”

Gerald spoke to the group of people lightly.

Then, he turned around and left the room.

Everyone in the private room was startled, especially Alice.

She could feel her heart beating uncontrollably.

Gerald had already called for three cabs for them. This indicated that he already knew that everything would be alright.

It was the same situation as the last time when Gerald had secretly run out during the commotion.

When he came back, everything had already been resolved.

Was this simply a coincidence?

Could it be… that the person who had called for help… was none other than Gerald?

How could that be possible?!

“Gerald, stop right there! Tell us the truth now!”

Alice chased after Gerald immediately. At this time, there were already three cabs waiting for them outside the karaoke bar.

Alice ran toward Gerald as she demanded answers.

“The truth?” Gerald asked.

He was already very disappointed with Alice, and he knew that it was impossible for both of them to even become friends at this point. So, why was she constantly pestering him?

“I am asking whether you were the one who made the phone call and requested for help. Was it you?”

Alice was very nervous at this time.

This was because she felt as though everything was connected. From the expensive fifty-five thousand dollar Hermes bag to the exclusive invitation to the manor, Gerald being invited to sit with Aiden and the rest of the group, and also the attitude of the security guard at the Emperor Karaoke Bar just now!

Everything seemed to revolve around Gerald.

Had Gerald really gained all those favors just because he had saved Zack’s daughter? Regardless, wouldn’t there be a time when the favor would have already been fully repaid?

Alice was very scared. She was afraid that she had been hating on someone who was wealthy and powerful all along.

She would not know how to face the consequences then.

“Was it you?” Alice asked anxiously.

“If you hoped that it was me, then it was me. If you hoped that it was not me, then it was not me. Hahaha…”

Gerald replied indifferently before he turned around and got into one of the cabs.

Meanwhile, Jacelyn and the rest of the girls had also happened to overhear the conversation between Alice and Gerald, and they were all shocked.

Oh my! Was it really possible that all of this was because of Gerald?

He… wasn’t he just a pauper?

Alice was in tears at this time because she did not know what else to think.

Finally, Jacelyn, Naomi, and the other girls dragged Alice into the cab.

“Alice, are you okay? Gerald is a good person. Even though he might be poor, he is still a very good person. Don’t think too much about it!” Naomi persuaded Alice helplessly.

“No! I’m not thinking too much…” Alice suddenly raised her head as she looked at Naomi and Jacelyn.

“Do you still remember what I told you today? I told you that seventy percent of the Mayberry Commercial Street was owned by a young boss. I even told you that this young man was very humble and low-key, and even though I tried searching, there was no information about him at all on the internet…”

“Of course I remember. You said that the young man’s last name was Crawford. Everyone calls him Mr. Crawford… ahh! Crawford?”

Jacelyn was in shock as she seemed to have thought of something at this point!
