The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 61

Many boys gathered around immediately, and even Nathaniel was looking in that direction.

Gerald also looked in that direction with a curious expression on his face.

The girl who had just stepped out of the car was indeed very beautiful, and Gerald also knew who she was. In fact, they had just met not too long ago.

Who else would it have been if it was not Mila?

“Ahh. She is so beautiful! It would be perfect if she could become my girlfriend.” The boy who was standing next to Nathaniel said, his eyes filled with affection.

He looked like a fool at this time.

“D*mn you! Who said that you could dream about her ever becoming your girlfriend?! Let me tell you, this is the girl our Brother Victor is interested in! You can just treat her as eye candy, but you should not hope for her to ever become your girlfriend!” Nathaniel said in a disgusted tone.

“Ahh! Brother Victor. No wonder. Brother Victor is so handsome, and it’s no wonder why the girl that he likes is also so extraordinary!”

When the other boy heard the name ‘Victor’, he naturally took a step back and drooped a little.

Brother Victor was none other than Victor Wright, the vice president of the student union in the Department of Language and Literature. Everyone knew that he came from a very well-to-do family and that he drove an Audi A6. There was not a single person in university who did not know who he was.

How could anyone possibly afford to offend him?

“Who dares to ask this beauty for her phone number? If anyone can give me her phone number, I am willing to pay you fifteen dollars for it!”

“It’s useless. Someone tried to ask for her number earlier, but she refused to give it!”

“Furthermore, didn’t you hear what that kid said just now? That beautiful girl is the girl that Victor is currently pursuing…”

“Victor is the one who drives the Audi A6 in our school. He specially arranged for someone to come here to keep an eye on his girl today!”

Some of the girls were very dissatisfied at this time. After all, Mila’s appearance and her beauty far eclipsed the rest of them.

Everyone was gazing intensely at Mila.

Gerald was also no exception and was also staring at Mila.

Smack!

At this time, a small pebble hit his face out of the blue.

What? Who did it?!

Gerald turned around and saw Quinn glaring at him.

“Gerald, you pauper! Who gave you the right to look at that beautiful girl?! Do you have to look just because the other guys are also looking at her? Don’t you know your own place at all?”

Quinn was a little unhappy because she would have to have dinner with Nathaniel after losing her bet with him because of Gerald. Besides, she was also jealous and envious of Mila.

Was she not good enough to attract the attention of a pauper?

“Quinn, you’re crazy! What do you think you’re doing?!” Gerald cursed out loud as he was extremely annoyed.

He really wanted to straighten things out with Nathaniel and Quinn.

“Gerald!” Just then, Mila, who had just stepped out of the car, quickly greeted and called out to Gerald as soon as she saw him.

Mila had been in a hurry earlier because she had had to come here for her driving lessons.

Unexpectedly, she was closely watched and stared at by the group of boys as soon as she had arrived.

Most girls enjoyed the feeling of being watched and stared at by boys. However, Mila could not help but feel very awkward and embarrassed because they had been staring at her from the very beginning to the end. They were even intensely looking on as she was practicing her driving.

Fortunately, Mila had seen Gerald as soon as she stopped the car.

Mila did not know anyone in the entire training ground, and the only person that she knew was Gerald.

At this time, Gerald also smiled as he nodded slightly at Mila.

“Oh my God! Why does it seem as though sister-in-law knows this pauper?” Nathaniel was very confused.

Even the other boys were staring at Gerald with a curious and appalled look on their faces.

“Why does it seem as though this poorly dressed person actually knows the goddess?!”

“Moreover, it seems as though he has a very good relationship with the goddess! Both of them are talking and laughing together!

Everyone’s jealous and suspicious gazes were all projected and fixed on Gerald at this time. They really could not understand why the goddess could become friends with someone like him when she was not even interested in looking at any of them.

Truth be told, Gerald was also very surprised.

“Unexpectedly, you are also learning how to drive here…” Gerald smiled slightly.

“Yes! I came and registered for the class yesterday! I think both of us are really fated! By the way, thank you so much for paying for my milk tea earlier this afternoon…”

Gerald’s conversation with Mila was very simple.

Aside from Xavia and Naomi, Gerald hardly had any other female friends at all. Thus, he did not have much experience when it came to speaking to girls, and he did not know how to start a conversation at all.

He could only ask a question when he thought about it or answer a question when someone asked him one.

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 62

Even though the speaker did not intend for anything, mindless listeners could take their words seriously.

Nathaniel frowned as soon as he heard that Gerald had paid for Mila’s milk tea.

He could tell that both of them obviously knew each other. Moreover, Gerald had paid for Mila’s milk tea? Was there something more than this between them?

As he thought about it, Nathaniel immediately sent a text message to Victor.

Then, Nathaniel looked at Gerald who was about to continue chatting with Mila before he said, “Gerald, are you here to practice how to drive, or did you come here to chat with girls? It must have already been hard enough for you to save enough money to pay for your driving lessons. Aren’t you going to pay more attention to the driving lessons instead?”

Several girls who were standing at the side also looked at Gerald with contempt in their hearts. They had initially thought that this person was quite honest, but it seemed as though he had completely lost his train of thoughts as soon as he saw a beautiful girl.

Mila could tell clearly that Nathaniel was attacking Gerald, so she quickly defended him. “Nathaniel, what are you trying to say? Why are you attacking Gerald? You have failed Subject Two twice but you are still attacking others in vain. If you have that much time, you should focus on studying by yourself instead.”

“I…” Nathaniel’s face turned black immediately.

Vroom!

At this time, the sound of a car roaring suddenly sounded near the playground.

Everyone turned to look in that direction in an instant.

After that, a few of the girls pointed outside as they shouted, “Wow! That Audi A6 is so beautiful!”

“Oh my! Does that car belong to the Brother Victor that he was talking about earlier? I heard that he’s the vice president of the student union for the Department of Language and Literature!”

“So cool!”

The group of girls could not help but look at the direction of the car enthusiastically.

Meanwhile, the car finally stopped in front of Mila, and the tall Victor stepped out of the car immediately, Whitney following suit.

As soon as Victor got out of the car, his eyes naturally fell on Mila and Gerald.

He could not believe it when he received the text message from Nathaniel earlier. However, he realized that Mila was indeed standing next to Gerald at this time.

“Mila, do you know Gerald personally?” Victor asked curiously.

He was afraid that Mila might have fallen for Gerald’s petty tricks and lies.

“We met and got to know each other today. What’s the matter?” Mila was very displeased with Victor’s questioning tone.

“Nothing’s wrong. Did Gerald tell you anything suspicious? Did he tell you that he has some friends who are driving some limited edition Ferraris? I’m telling you, that’s all fake! We found out that he is just lying about those so-called friends that he has!”

Victor had already looked into the matter. He believed that it was highly likely that Gerald had spent seven thousand dollars to experience what it felt like to ride in a Ferrari because he wanted to use this as an opportunity to get close to girls.

Unexpectedly, Gerald also seemed to be interested in Mila.

Mila could not help but frown as soon as she heard Victor’s words.

At this time, Gerald was simply staring at Whitney who was standing beside Victor.

Needless to say, she had taken everything he had said to coax her the last time to heart, even conducting her private investigation into this matter.

What was wrong with this woman? Why was she so interested in his private affairs?

“Well, Gerald, let me give you a warning now. You’d better stay away from Mila from now onward. Mila is a girl that you will never be able to have or reach in your entire lifetime! Besides, you are a very hypocritical person, and I absolutely despise you!”

Whitney could still remember everything that Gerald had told her when she saw him getting out of the Ferrari the other day. He had told her that his friend had driven him back in his Ferrari.

Whitney was still very furious because she could not believe that this guy was so full of shit!

Moreover, Victor also said that Gerald had actually bought milk tea for Mila.

Was this toad trying to get a taste of a swan’s meat?

Whitney’s words made Nathaniel and everyone else at the North Playground look at Gerald as they sneered.

“Whitney, why are you saying all this about Gerald…”

Mila had already known and observed that Whitney was very cold and impolite toward Gerald ever since the last time.

“Mila, I’m just afraid that you will be deceived by this jerk! Gerald is not as simple or honest as you think he is!” Whitney replied as she glared at Gerald with a stern expression on her face. “By the way, Mila, will you be free tonight? Brother Victor is the host and he would like to bring you to Homeland Kitchen for dinner tonight! I can come along if you go!” Whitney continued in a sour tone.

“I will have to practice driving in the afternoon so I might not have time to go for dinner tonight…” Mila did not really want to go for the dinner with them.

“Oh, can’t you just practice driving some other time? Do you honestly have to practice driving today? Mila, don’t tell me that the reason you are turning down Victor’s invitation to dinner is because you want to practice driving with Gerald? Don’t you think that that’s a waste of your time?”

Whitney’s words placed Mila in a very difficult spot. It would be wrong for her to go, and it would be wrong for her not to go.

If she agreed to go for dinner, she would indirectly be saying that she did not want to spend time with Gerald. That would only embarrass Gerald and put him down.

Truthfully, Gerald was a very good person, or at the very least, Mila felt so.

However, if she declined the dinner, Whitney would never let her off.

Finally, Mila replied, “Okay, I will come for the dinner, but I want to bring someone with me. After all, he helped me out today. I will be the host tonight and all of us can go for dinner together, okay?”

Then, Mila turned around and looked at Gerald who was standing quietly at the side.

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 63

”What?! Mila, you want to bring Gerald with you?” Whitney asked in surprise.

Gerald was also slightly surprised at this time. Through their short-term contact today, Gerald already knew that Mila was the kind of girl who had a very kind and gracious heart. She did not look down on the poor, and she was not the type of person who disliked the poor and loved the rich. As long as it was a good person, Mila would treat them as her good friend.

Mila was a sharp contrast in comparison to Whitney, and she was also a very considerate person.

However, Gerald was not interested in attending the dinner with Victor, Whitney, and the rest of their group of friends.

Not one bit!

Mila nodded before she said, “Whitney, Gerald helped me out a lot today. That is the reason why I invited all of you out for dinner tonight. Of course, Gerald has to come today!”

“Why don’t you all go out and have fun without me instead?” Gerald replied as he smiled at Mila. Naturally, he understood Mila’s intentions for inviting him to join them for dinner tonight.

“No, you have to come!” Truthfully, Mila had another purpose for inviting Gerald to tag along for the dinner tonight. How could she possibly not know of Victor’s intentions and interest in her?

This was the only way for her to stay away from Victor as she did not like Victor at all.

At this time, Victor had a very ugly and dissatisfied expression on his face.

He could not say that he would not allow Gerald to attend the dinner tonight, and he could not possibly allow Mila to bear the costs.

Even if Gerald were to come for the dinner tonight, Victor would never allow Mila to pay for the dinner.

Was he that ungentlemanly?!

Therefore, Victor replied bitterly, “Mila, it’s settled then. I will buy you dinner tonight. You did not follow us for lunch at Homeland Kitchen the last time, so you have to come along with us for dinner tonight. As for Gerald, he can come if he wants to…”

Mila nodded slightly.

Whitney glared at Gerald as she said, “Hmph! You’re lucky that Victor is allowing you to join us for dinner tonight! However, you should remember that the only reason you’re invited to dinner tonight is because you helped Mila. Otherwise, you should not even be dreaming about it!”

After saying that, Whitney turned around to look at Mila before she said, “Mila, I will see you tonight then!”

As soon as she was done speaking, Whitney turned around and left with Victor.

‘Ugh!’ Gerald could not help but sigh in his heart.

If this was the case, there was nothing else he could do but tag along for the dinner.

As Gerald did not want to think of anything else, he simply focused on his training.

He continued practicing his driving until late in the evening.

Whitney came to pick Mila up in Victor’s car.

Quite a few people were joining them for dinner that night, and most of them were the boys and girls who were also close to Victor as they were part of the student union.

Quinn and Nathaniel were also amongst the crowd of people joining them for dinner.

They arrived at Homeland Kitchen after a short drive. Victor was very generous and had already booked a very luxurious and exquisite room for them.

Gerald simply followed them into the room without saying anything at all.

Gerald did not pay much attention to his surroundings and did not even notice a waiter glancing at him as he walked passed him. The waiter had a surprised look on his face before he hurried downstairs for inexplicable reasons.

“Mm. I guess this must be the first time someone has ever stepped foot into this restaurant. I’m afraid that he will not have a second chance to do so!”

Everyone was very excited at this time. Moreover, Quinn was glancing at Gerald as she targeted her sarcastic remark at him.
