Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 671

This was what Maia said as soon as she saw that Gerald had also entered the high-end entertainment center.

Gerald himself had simply been walking around, minding his own business before turning to look at Maia after hearing her shout. Contrary to Maia, he was as calm as a cucumber.

Maia however, wasn’t having any of this. To her, Gerald could only possibly have entered due to him following them closely while Jamier was showing the staff his VIP card earlier. The staff must have allowed him in then, thinking that he was part of their group!

Seeing Gerald in such a place simply made Maia feel uncomfortable.

“Hey, Gerald! Why are you here as well? Who even allowed you in here?” said Maia rather angrily.

Hearing Maia’s interrogative question, Gerald felt stunned.

‘Who allowed me in? I can come and leave as I please since the staff have been notified that I came together with Barry.’

‘I naturally have free access to this place!’

In all honesty, Gerald was only passing through the entertainment center because he needed to. After all, it was the only way for him to get to the small manors at the peak of the mountain—above the entertainment center—where both Barry and Queta were still waiting.

“D*mn it, have you no shame at all? Don’t you know that unless you’re following a tour, you need a VIP card to enter this place? Not just anybody can enter as they want!” added Maia, her voice clearly filled with contempt.

“I am aware of that!” replied Gerald with a nod.

“F*cking hell! Since you already know about that, how could you just follow us in here after Jamier showed his VIP card? You can’t just sneak into this place with us!” replied Maia.

While she hadn’t really hated Gerald in the past, Maia still utterly looked down on him. After today’s events, however, she was starting to hate him slightly.

‘Jamier didn’t even invite you! Only Warren, Vincy, Lennard, and I were supposed to come here to enjoy ourselves!’

‘How dare you even consider sneaking in with us? What’ll Jamier think about this?’

‘After all, he knows that Vincy, Lennard, and I are your high school classmates! How utterly embarrassing!’

‘If you had snuck into someplace else with us without Jamier being present, I wouldn’t have cared this much! Hell, I’d probably have approved of it as long as you were willing to expand your horizons!’

‘But this is different. What’ll Jamier think about Vincy and I now?’

All these thoughts made Maia even more embarrassed than before.

“I didn’t even sneak into this place!” replied Gerald helplessly.

He knew how much Maia had looked down upon him in the past. To think that it could actually get even worse!

However, he wasn’t lying either. He really hadn’t snuck in.

“How could you even say that at this point…? If you didn’t sneak in, do you have a VIP card?!” said Maia furiously.

“Well… No,” replied Gerald. After all, he didn’t really need one to enter.

“Then why are you still lying? You snuck into this place yet you still don’t want to admit it! I’m honestly speechless right now!” shouted Maia, so angry that she was even stomping her foot now.

If it wasn’t because of how aware she was of her status as a police officer, she would’ve already kicked Gerald at least twice by now!

What more, several other respectable-looking people—who were also walking around in the entertainment center at the time—seemed to be finding the scene rather hilarious.

Realizing this made Maia and the others feel deeply embarrassed.

Trying to deescalate the situation, Vincy then said, “It’s fine, Maia. Don’t talk to Gerald that way… Remember, we still used to be classmates! Also, Jamier? I hope you don’t think too much about it. Gerald must have just entered with us to have some fun!”

“I don’t really mind!” replied Jamier as he shook his head while laughing slightly bitterly.

“Humph! You’re lucky Jamier’s so generous! Otherwise, we would’ve kicked you out of here immediately! God, I feel so annoyed seeing him like this!” growled Maia as she stomped her foot a few more times before finally turning around to walk away.

Vincy could only look at Gerald rather pitifully.

After all, all of what Maia had said to him was equally unpleasant and hurtful.

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 672

“I’m sure you know how straightforward a person Maia is, Gerald… After all, she’s been like that even from when she was still our captain! It’s just the way she is, so please don’t take what she said to heart!” consoled Vincy.

“Well, alright!” replied Gerald, peeking at Maia once before nodding at Vincy.

Since Vincy had been the only one treating him well, he chose to follow her advice.

Besides, if he really wanted to embarrass Maia, he could do so any time he pleased. However, he felt that that would be slightly childish of him, so he simply refrained from doing so.

Gerald wouldn’t usually have disputes with girls like her anyway.

“I hope you mean what you say… Speaking of which, if you’re not too busy, let’s hang out for a short while and catch up with each other! After graduating from high school, I asked about you and found out that you had been accepted into Mayberry University! I told you that you’d be able to do it back then!” said Vincy.

Back in high school, though she never actually said it, Vincy admired Gerald quite a bit. After all, Gerald was always studying and as a result, his results were top notch. What more, she also knew that he was the kind of person who would always persevere to the very end, regardless of the task at hand.

Once, the two of them—who were competing together as a small team—ended up becoming champion in one of the many competitions they participated in. Back then, Vincy had been extremely excited since she got to hold Gerald’s hand while receiving the award.

After all, she quite frankly had slight feelings for Gerald back then.

She honestly wanted to see Gerald finally get his moment and rise above everyone else.

However, that moment simply never came. As a result, her feelings for him were also short-lived.

In the end, Gerald was simply too poor. Although she continued treating Gerald well, she no longer tried to gain his affection.

It wasn’t as though she looked down on him or anything. She simply still retained a rather immature mindset. Putting it frankly, she wanted a more heroic person to be her life partner.

Gerald however, was rather unwilling to join her, simply because he didn’t want to deal with Maia any more than he needed to.

While he honestly wanted to refuse Vincy’s suggestion right there and then, Vincy seemed to have wanted to have a nice long chat with him from the very moment they had met again the day before.

He couldn’t really deny that he wanted to chat with Vincy as well. After all, it had been so long since they last met.

Thinking about this made it much harder for Gerald to decline her invitation.

Since the results of the jade pendant wouldn’t be out till a bit longer, Gerald eventually nodded slightly in response, not wanting to disappoint Vincy.

“Vincy! You-!”

At that moment, Maia and the others were sitting beside a hot spring while taking photographs.

Seeing that Vincy had brought Gerald along, Maia was stunned speechless. She found it weird that Vincy would even want someone like Gerald around.

“Well, since he’s already here anyway, let’s just have a chat together! This is as good a chance as any to catch up with each other!” replied Vincy immediately.

Hearing that, Maia fumed slightly before turning to look the other side.

Jamier himself wasn’t going to argue with Gerald. Instead, he turned to look at both Warren and Maia before saying, “What do you think? Isn’t the scenery here fantastic?”

“It’s definitely something!” replied Maia.

“Thanks for today, Jamier. You know, next time when you come over to Mayberry, I’ll get my dad to use his connections to allow us to enter Wayfair Mountain Entertainment to have some fun! Just the few of us together!” said Warren.

“Are you talking about the one in Mayberry? That’s the most luxurious place there! Take my word that you’ll definitely be satisfied if you go there, Jamier. Honestly, even as a person from Mayberry, I’ve never actually set foot into Wayfair Mountain Entertainment. However, I’ve heard lots about it! It’s not easy to enter if you’re just some random nobody!” added Maia as she let out a heavy sigh.

The way he worded it earlier, Warren’s father clearly had some kinds of connections. After hearing what Maia said, Warren simply patted his own chest twice before saying, “Not to worry, you’ll definitely be coming along as well when we eventually go there to have some fun! It’ll be just the five of us! You, me, Jamier, Vincy, and Lennard!”

It was obvious why he had deliberately mentioned those five names.

“Oh? Well now I definitely have to see Wayfair Mountain Entertainment for myself then!”

“Of course you do! Also, anyone who wishes to enter that place needs an admission ticket. You can’t just sneak in all willy-nilly!”

As she said that, Maia rolled her eyes slightly at Gerald’s direction.

It was clear as day that she was mocking him.

‘What else can I say to that? Little do they know that I used to be the owner of that place!’

“…Hmm? Look over there, doesn’t that girl look familiar…? Oh god. Vincy, hurry! Look there!” said Maia out of the blue as she started pointing excitedly at a girl standing next to the hot spring.

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 673

“Isn’t she the famous celebrity, YunaYames? D*mn! To think that we’d actually bump into her here!” exclaimed Maia, clearly surprised.

“While I was aware that this scenic spot was occasionally visited by some celebrities who wanted to have some fun after attending functions in County Salford, never would I have imagined seeing such high profile artists like Yuna here!” said Vincy, equally as surprised.

Her surprise was warranted. After all, she had studied and even established her own business in County Salford. There was little about the place that she didn’t already know.

A burst of laughter soon followed.

“If I remember correctly, you’ve never really been the type to idolize celebrities, right Maia? The only exception to that rule was Yuna! You admired her so much during high school that you even pasted posters of Yuna by your bedside!”

Hearing that, Maia nodded in agreement before saying, “That’s right! I like her because of her self-discipline! I’ve seen all of her work and I even discipline myself according to how she does it!”

“Well, then what are you waiting for? Look, several people are already approaching her to get her signature! Let’s hurry over there and get one for ourselves…”

“Yeah, let’s go get her autograph together!” said Vincy. Judging from her tone alone, it was evident that Vincy really liked Yuna as well.

Jamier, Lennard, and Warren themselves weren’t going to object to Vincy’s proposal any time soon. After all, Yuna was akin to a goddess in the public’s eyes.

While lots of girls liked her, even more men saw her as the love of their dreams.

Gerald himself was a fan of Yuna’s.

After all, the celebrity was very beautiful and had an extremely charming disposition. However, the thing that attracted her fans most, was how down to earth and friendly she was.

If he remembered correctly, Yuna worked under one of Gerald’s sister’s film and television companies in Yanken.

“Come along now, Gerald! Let’s go snap some photographs together with her! It’s not every day we get to do this!” called out Vincy.

Gerald simply nodded silently, a smile on his face.

He was well aware that if he really wanted to have a photograph with Yuna, he simply needed to call her over. There wasn’t really a need for Gerald to rush over to get such a chance.

Vincy herself immediately started jogging over to Yuna after calling out to Gerald.
