The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 541-550

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 541

“My elder brother is Yale Lockwood, and he studied at First Middle School before. What’s wrong? Are you afraid? Hah. If you are, hurry up and get lost from my sight. Or you’re all dead meat when he has returned!”

Franklin stretched his neck and replied, his voice booming with dominance.

“Well, go f*ck yourself!”

Gerald’s eyes became bloodshot. He then raised his leg and threw a powerful kick right at Franklin’s stomach. He immediately fell to the floor at the blow, wailing in pain.

Although Gerald might seem frail on the outside, he was actually quite strong. Back then, he used to be quite a good fighter when he fought the others with Xeno.

Xeno got into more fights than him. Gerald only fought once for Xeno’s sake.

Basically, both his arms and legs were really quite strong.

When he heard that Franklin’s brother was Yale, he became instantly infuriated.

Besides, Gerald was not afraid of anything now.

He then picked up a tool, stormed over toward the other two, and smashed them with it.

The three others were extremely skinny, and it was inevitable that they would have been beaten into a pulp by Gerald.

Xabrina was stunned when the scene unfolded before her eyes.

At that spur of the moment, witnessing how masculine and heroic Gerald was, she found him to be rather charming.

“Gerald, help me give them a good beating!” Xabrina shouted.

On the other hand, when Lily saw them getting into a fight, she took her chance, grabbed a vase beside her, and threw it at Xabrina.

Both girls started getting into a fight too.

Gerald totally transformed into someone violent and fierce.

His eyes turned bloodshot.

Who was Yale?

He was as good as a demon in Gerald’s heart. Because of him, Gerald was unable to get rid of self-reproach feeling after all those years.

That was true. Yale was the culprit who got a gang of people to block off Gerald by surrounding him before beating him up into a pulp back in middle school. Yale went to such drastic measures all for a girl he liked.

He acted recklessly just because his family was wealthy and influential. Besides, his family had a lot of subordinates too.

It was after school when they bashed Gerald up. But luckily, that afternoon, Xeno came to his rescue as the both of them took on a dozen men.

That group of men was holding stools during the entire fight. They cornered Gerald and started beating him up, and Xeno appeared at that very instance with a knife in his hand.

Gerald would not be filled with so much hatred if that incident ended there and then.

Not long after, Xeno’s family was destroyed by Yale’s father and his subordinates. Xeno’s father was a truck driver, but he acted rashly during that incident when his family was being trashed. Yale’s men broke his legs, and just like that, as the breadwinner of the family, his life was completely ruined.

After the dust had settled, Xeno went to a vocational school. Despite being in a different school, Yale and his subordinates still found a way to drag Xeno out regularly to wallop him.

Fortunately, Xeno knew a friend from a society he treated as his brother, and he learnt how to repair cars through him. It was how Xeno got past his days and that was how things turned out in the end.

This unfortunate event on Xeno’s family was also one reason why Gerald became extremely wrathful.

‘Hah, so this guy even claims that he’s going to call up Yale to come and beat us up. Well bring it on, I want to meet this motherf*cker too!’

Gerald growled below his breath as an unfamiliar sense of fury boiled within him. He did not bother about anything else anymore.

“Oh! My leg!” Suddenly, Xabrina screamed in pain.

It turned out that she had accidentally kicked the damaged vase, which fell on the floor, and her calf was cut.

The entire ruckus had become quite a huge mess, and the manager of Domino’s had immediately reported the incident to the police.

Upon realizing that, Lily did not dare to do anything anymore.

She quickly dragged Franklin, who was still clutching his stomach in pain, and dashed out of the restaurant in a blink of an eye.

On the other hand, Xabrina’s classmates, who were there previously, had long disappeared, clearing themselves out of trouble.

“Gerald, come and give me a hand. Bring me to the hospital to bandage my wound. If there’s a scar, it’ll be over for me!” Xabrina winced but could only ask for help from Gerald.

After all, she still had lingering thoughts that Gerald might have fought on her behalf just now.

‘You’re indeed such a handful!’ Gerald cursed, leaving the thought to himself.

Despite his reluctance, he helped Xabrina up and gently took her to the clinic just beside to get her wound bandaged.

Luckily, her wound was not too serious, and it was just a minor cut.

Xabrina was propped up against the hospital bed. She leaned backward as she smiled and looked at Gerald curiously.

She suddenly let out a soft chuckle.

“What are you laughing at?” Gerald asked frowning.

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 542

“I really got a wrong impression of you today. I looked into you before coming here today. You seemed to be always bullied back when you were in middle school. Besides, when I first met you, I felt as though you were the type of person who was honest but just ignorant and gullible. Did you know that?

“But it never occurred to me, the extent of your strength when you get triggered. The three of them didn’t even have the chance to counterattack. You don’t even know how fierce you were just now. You were so manly!”

Xabrina used her leg to nudge Gerald gingerly.

It was true. Xabrina indeed saw Gerald in a different light now. She even felt slightly touched too.

Generally, girls liked masculine men, especially those who exuded that to protect their girls.

Gerald indeed had just that vibe.

“Nah, you don’t know anything. I’m not usually like this.” Gerald said, shaking his head.

“I know that. I can see that too!”

Xabrina pursed her lips slightly.

“That’s enough. If you’re okay, you can go home on your own. I still need to return to that place.”

Gerald turned around and was about to leave.

“Why are you going back there?” Xabrina immediately questioned.

“I ruined too much furniture there. It’s only the right that I should compensate for that!” Gerald replied.

“Hey, wait a moment, Gerald. I still have something I want to say.”

“Is there anything else?”

“I just wanted to say that you’re quite a good person, Gerald.” Xabrina tone was low and serious for once.

Gerald chuckled at the remark.

He bitterly laughed it off and quickly left.

‘When I first met him, I didn’t feel such a thing. But now, why do I feel like he’s quite a catch?’

Xabrina muttered to herself as she observed his strong, well-developed back.

But as soon as she thought about how Gerald fought the others for her sake just now, she smiled sweetly again.

It was almost noon when Xabrina reached home. Luckily, her parents were not at home. Only her sister was there.

“What took you so long? I called you, but your phone was switched off. Didn’t you tell me that you would resolve it in twenty minutes?”

Michelle asked impatiently.

Suddenly, Michelle realized that her sister was limping and her calf was bandaged. She immediately gaped, stunned.

“Sister, what happened to you?! Did you get into a fight with someone?”

“Yes, sister. I fought with Lily. She brought the others to get back at me!” Xabrina whimpered.

Michelle spat and rolled her eyes in disbelief.

“That b*tch! What she has to be so smug about? How about that extremely poor loser? Have you met him?”

Michelle’s thoughts immediately went back to Gerald.

“Sister, why address him that way? You haven’t even gotten to meet him in person yet. Why do you talk about him in such a mean way?” Xabrina felt quite uneasy listening to her sister ridicule such harsh words.

She felt quite upset if anyone, even including her sister, condemned him since she discovered how nice Gerald was.

“D*mn! What’s wrong with you? Have you met him? What does he look like? Is he handsome? Is he vulgar? Don’t tell me that he’s ugly.” Michelle quizzed.

“I don’t know. I’m tired, and I want to go and rest in my bedroom now. Besides, I’m no longer helping you with this issue in the future.”

Xabrina was feeling down and limped away to her bedroom quietly.

‘What’s wrong with her, man?’

Seeing her sister’s attitude, Michelle felt confused.

On the other hand, Gerald had returned to Domino’s to settle the mess.

At that moment, he received a call from Mr. Winters, asking him about the blind date.

Gerald claimed that he would tell him all about it when he returned home. After sorting things out at the restaurant, he immediately headed back to Mr. Winter’s place.

But when he reached the porch, he saw Queenie standing by the door. It seemed as though she was waiting for someone.

The moment she saw Gerald, she quickly walked toward him.

“Oh my god! I’ve been waiting for you for sooo long!! And you’re finally back now. Come here. I need to tell you something…”
