Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 601
It was a call from Zack.
“Mr. Crawford, we have some leads regarding the jade pendant!” said Zack the moment Gerald picked the phone up.
“Oh? Where are you right now?” asked Gerald in return.
The expert treasure appraiser from Northway went by the name of Mr. Zayden Weyham. Gerald had met him before during the celebrity party, and they even toasted each other on that day.
Since he had some issues to deal with back then, Gerald had told Zack to bring Mr. Xiques along to meet Mr. Weyham. Mr. Xiques himself could only discern that the jade pendant was produced southwest of the Salford Province.
However, details about its origins had still been vague up to this point. Zack’s call was a sign that they were finally able to find something.
“I’m in Mr. Weyham’s manor with Mr. Xiques now. Would you like to come over now, Mr. Crawford?”
“I’ll be there soon!”
After hanging up, he told Yoel and the others about his plan before heading straight for Mr. Weyham’s manor.
Mr. Weyham and his family had a lot of influence as well as a good reputation. While they were well known for their business in Northbay, Mr. Weyham’s business actually began in Mayberry. Since Mr. Weyham’s hometown was also in Mayberry, it only made sense for him to return to his homeland now that he was much older.
During the celebrity party, the Weyhams were seen as a considerably famous and influential family.
Gerald would definitely refrain from treating such a family coldly.
In no time at all, Gerald arrived at Weyham’s manor. He found Mr. Weyham having tea with both Zack and Mr. Xiques.
“Mr. Crawford!” said both Zack and Mr. Xiques respectfully as they stood up.
After nodding toward them, he turned to look at Mr. Weyham before saying, “Thank you so much for this, Mr. Weyham.”
“No need to be so cordial, Mr. Crawford. Please, have a seat.”
After a brief greeting, Mr. Weyham immediately cut to the chase.
“Mr. Crawford, this pendant comes from a family from Wendall City in the Salford Province. Though this kind of jade is extremely rare, I was lucky enough to go to Wendall City with my master about fifty years ago. Back when I first saw it, a young man local to that city was wearing it. It should be the symbol of their family!” explained Mr. Weyham.
“And what family is that?” asked Gerald rather anxiously.
In all honesty, Gerald wasn’t really interested in helping his father look for that Xara woman. However, Queta was almost the same as Xara, the woman his father had been looking for all this time. This was what made Gerald curious.
‘Is Queta my stepsister who shares the same father with me but has a different mother…?’
‘Why do I feel so close to Queta every time I meet her?’
Something was definitely fishy with the incident. Since his father wouldn’t tell him the truth no matter how much Gerald asked him, Gerald would investigate the matter himself.
Weyham shook his head slightly as he said, “I was just discussing this with both Mr. Xiques and Mr. Lyle earlier. I was still pretty young then, and I only managed to glance at the young man who wore that pendant once. Make no mistake, I distinctly remember seeing that pendant then, but I really don’t know which family in Wendall City he belongs to. I was even looking through a few large families in Wendal City with Mr. Lyle just now, but none of those large families have this kind of tradition!” said Mr. Weyham.
“I see… Well, since we know it comes from Wendall City, I’m sure it won’t be too difficult to investigate into it!” replied Gerald as he smiled faintly.
As they began talking about other things, Mr. Xiques suddenly stood up and walked over to a pendulum clock. Staring at it curiously, he asked, “If I’m not mistaken, this pendulum clock is from the 1900s… Am I correct, Mr. Weyham?”
Mr. Weyham nodded before replying, “Indeed, it is! It was made in M country and back then, it was even placed in the president’s office!”
“How did you even manage to get your hands on such a thing?” asked Mr. Xiques, astonished.
“It was a birthday gift from the Longs of Yanken!” replied Mr. Weyham with a chuckle.
Since Mr. Weyham mentioned the Long family so casually, it was obvious that Mr. Weyham wasn’t aware of the conflict between Gerald and the Longs.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 602
Gerald only smiled faintly as he took a sip of tea.
“It’s rather late now, grandpa… There are so many guests today…”
At that moment, a girl wearing pajamas slowly descended the stairs as she stared at Gerald and the others curiously.
“Ah, Lissa. Come over here and greet Mr. Crawford. Weren’t you quite curious about him before this?” said Mr. Weyham as he smiled.
“He’s Mr. Gerald Crawford?” asked Lissa as she made it to the final step.
When she got to him, she scanned him from head to toe before frowning slightly. Immediately after, she chuckled before saying, “It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Crawford. I’m Melissa Weyham but you can just call me Lissa.”
“A pleasure to meet you too, Lissa. You can just call me Gerald!” replied Gerald as he extended his hand out to shake her hand.
Lissa was considerably beautiful and after talking to her for a while, he found that she was quite generous to others as well.
Gerald’s first impression of her wasn’t bad, to say the least.
What more, she was a pretty nice talker too. She talked about all kinds of things with Gerald.
“So you’re Mr. Crawford, huh. What kind of entertainment do you usually partake in?” asked Melissa.
“I don’t usually attend many activities, to be quite honest,” replied Gerald as he shook his head.
“Humph! I refuse to believe that! I’m sure you always enjoy yourself to your heart’s content!” As she said that, Lissa laughed heartily.
After a while, she seemed to remember something. This prompted her to ask, “Speaking of which, I got to know a few friends here in Mayberry. We’re going to have a gathering tomorrow afternoon and I’ll be treating them to a meal! If you’re free, would you like to come along, Gerald?”
Gerald remained silent at her proposal.
“How rude, Lissa! Why on earth would Mr. Crawford want to fool around with you and your mischievous friends?” replied Mr. Weyham with a bitter smile.
“Well fine then!” said Melissa as she pouted slightly.
Since Mr. Weyham had done him a favor, Gerald knew that rejecting his granddaughter would eventually make him feel awkward for doing so. In the end, Gerald nodded slightly with a smile before saying, “It’s fine. Tomorrow was it? I’ll be there.”
“He said it, not me!” said Melissa with a smile.
A short while later, Gerald left the manor together with Zack and Mr. Xiques.
Though he initially wanted to return to Mountain Top Villa to have a rest, he suddenly recalled that he had lent the villa to Xavia.
Due to that, he told Zack to arrange a room in a hotel that he owned. He would stay there for the moment.
When Gerald arrived at the hotel’s entrance, he saw and heard a few security guards shouting, “Lousy beggar! Get lost already!”
They were busy trying to push away a dirt-covered old man who had extremely messy hair.
“What beggar? I’m no beggar! I just need to borrow a shower!” said the old man.
“To hell with that! Do you even know what place this is?” sneered the security guard.
“Humph! Let me tell you, I’m not any mere person! I’m Mr. Crawford’s grandfather! Your boss is my grandson! Now hurry up and let me in!”
“This old b*stard! How bold!”
By then, the guards were ready to beat him up.
Gerald didn’t really want to get involved in the mess. He didn’t care about what the old man said and the guards were there to take care of him anyway.
However, when Gerald took a closer look at the beggar, he was stunned.
“Stop,” said Gerald.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 603
Gerald realized that the old man was the same one who had blackmailed him when he was still looking for Giya back then. Gerald would never have dreamed that the old man would actually come looking for him again.
“How come it’s you again,” said Gerald as he frowned slightly.
“Ah! My grandson! It’s wonderful that you’re here now! Humph! These guards won’t let me in! Tell them to let me in!” said the old man with his hands on his waist.
“Why do you want to go in there? What do you need this time? I’ve already helped you before and I even cured your injured leg! Stop pestering me, do you really think that I’m a nice man without any temper?” replied Gerald rather impatiently.
Gerald didn’t really mind helping people if they looked as pitiful as the beggar did. However, he had already helped him once. If the old man continued to abuse Gerald’s pity, he would definitely be crossing the line.
“Why would you say that, grandson? What do you mean I’m pestering you? You just resemble my lost grandson a lot! If he isn’t dead, he should be around the same age as you are this year!” said the old man, his tone suddenly grievous as he lowered his head.
“What nonsense are you spouting? That’s it, I’m beating you up!”
Just as they were about to hit him, Gerald took pity after hearing the old man’s tale and he raised his hand slightly.
“Yes, Mr. Crawford!” shouted both guards as soon as they saw his gesture. Both of them then returned to their initial positions.
Seeing that, the old man sat on the porch with a sad expression on his face.
Gerald just couldn’t bear looking at the beggar’s poor state so he fished out a hundred dollar note from his wallet.
“I get it, you want money too, right? But I warn you, this is the last time I’m giving any to you. Now leave!”
He was aware that it would become a bad habit of the old man to depend on him if Gerald kept giving him money.
Still, it wasn’t like Gerald could stop himself from doing it. The old man was rather old and he couldn’t just turn a blind eye and let others beat him up.
“It’s not money that I want, my grandson! I just want to go in and have a bath! Just look at how shabby my clothes are!” said the old man with a chuckle.
Gerald then pointed at the old man before saying, “I’m warning you now. Don’t address me as your grandson ever again! If it’s just a bath you need, there’s a bathroom nearby. Go ahead and take your shower there!”
After saying that, Gerald handed some money to the guards before turning away to leave.
The guards instantly understood what he meant, and said, “D*mn old man! Mr. Crawford is so kind! He’s allowing you to take your bath there, so come along already!”
He then began dragging the old man away.
“Thank you, my grandson!”
“I told you to stop f*cking calling me that!”
The incident wasn’t really a big issue for Gerald so he simply headed to his hotel room to take a shower and retire for the night.
Not long after his shower however, he heard a knock on the door. Upon opening it, he was shocked beyond words.
It was the old man again!
“D*mn it, what are you doing here? Actually, how did you get in here?” asked Gerald, slightly stupefied.
In order to use the elevator in this hotel, one would first need to have a hotel room access card. What more, Gerald was staying on the VIP floor. To get to this specific floor, the person would also have to pass through a security door.
