Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 711

By then, Marven had already gotten up from his seat and was now approaching them.

He then shook hands with Alexander before saying, “Good day, Mr. Brookes! We’ve talked over the phone the day before. I tried calling you again earlier but you didn’t pick up!”

“I’m terribly sorry Mr. Wadley! I had to resolve some of my daughter’s school matters just now! Please forgive my tardiness!”

“Speaking of which, Mr. Wadley, you’ve told us to prepare a few documents the day before. Here’s the office area you were interested in and the 4D showroom model of the outlet,” said Mr. Brookes as he took a few documents out.

“Before proceeding any further, here’s a general breakdown regarding the payment. The outlet and the office area combined will cost around thirty-five million dollars since you’re paying the full lease upfront. I’ve made sure to give you a few discounts as well!”

“No problem. For now, let’s just have a seat first before discussing this any further!” replied Marven as he led Mr. Brookes to the side.

Meanwhile, Raquel was still standing at the same spot, though she was now hyperventilating. She felt as though her soul had just left her body.

‘How… How could this be? Why Marven? Since when did he become this powerful?!’

“Don’t be fooled by this fatty, Mr. Brookes. As if he could ever cough up thirty-five million dollars in cash!” said Jefferson looking extremely doubtful.

“Yeah, we know him well, Mr. Brookes! He definitely can’t pay that amount of money! You’re just wasting your time and energy talking to him!” added Raquel, visibly upset.

“Heh, you’re the ones who are mistaken. If you aren’t aware, Mr. Wadley’s Salford Star Travel Agency already has over two hundred projects signed! And the numbers keep on rising! We’ve checked their funding as well, and they have somewhere around eighty million dollars worth in capital!” explained Alexander as he smiled.

‘Do they honestly take me as a fool? As if I could ever make a mistake about something like this! What funny kids.’

The group then watched in pure horror as Marven signed the contract with Alexander. With that done, Alexander immediately bowed respectfully at Gerald who had been watching silently at the side this entire time.

Seeing this only amplified Raquel’s embarrassment.

She had only wanted to rent a place but she didn’t have the money to do so.

Marven, on the other hand, had just bought two whole units in one go! And to think that his travel agency had already signed over two hundred projects!

‘What is even happening anymore?’

With the contract signed, Gerald and Marven decided that it was high time to leave.

Jefferson didn’t even dare to look at him anymore, choosing instead to keep his head low. Raquel herself was reluctant to simply accept this colossal defeat.

She then ran after Marven before asking, “Marven… You… You started your own company? What is this? Why didn’t you tell me about any of this before?”

Raquel could feel her cheeks burning up as she asked the question.

“Oh, I just started it quite recently. We’ll officially be operating in a few days though we still have quite a few projects to prepare for!” replied Marven, not feeling any need to hide this.

“I… see… Then, regarding how rich you suddenly became…?”

“Quite frankly, that’s none of your business.”

After saying that, he immediately turned around and left her there. Marven hadn’t felt this satisfied and proud of himself in ages.

“…Y-you!”

Raquel was so upset that she was speechless. She could only stomp on the ground in anger as she watched the two leave her behind.

‘How could this be? How could any of this actually be happening?!’ Raquel thought to herself repeatedly as she felt her frustration well up in her chest. It almost felt like she was ready to burst into a million pieces.

Meanwhile, Gerald came to realize that after settling all those necessary procedures, it was already nearing noon.

With that, the two had a quick lunch before returning to campus together.

While they made their way back to school, the news about Gerald and Marven starting a new company had already spread like wildfire. There were even rumors that they already had multiple projects on hand!

Even though the two had yet to return to class, all their classmates were already talking about it, and all the noise made for a rather huge commotion.

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 712

The moment both of them opened the class door, they were immediately greeted by simultaneous screams and exclamations!

“Gerald! Marven! Where did both of you go?” asked a few pretty girls as they surrounded the duo while trying their hardest to spark a conversation. All of them had their eyes on Gerald as though they were trying to seduce him.

After all, everyone figured that it was Gerald who had given Marven a hand in this. While it was true that Marven was the director of the company, his main funds could only have come from Gerald. It was the reason why the girls were all trying to get into Gerald’s good books.

Marven’s status had heightened greatly as well, and quite a few of his classmates had already approached him to try their luck at striking a conversation with him.

While everyone was excitedly surrounding the two, Isabelle and Stella had completely opposite reactions. Both of them had darkened expressions on their faces. After all, they had bullied Gerald back when they didn’t know that he was rich.

Now that Gerald had a sudden popularity spike, Isabelle was starting to panic as she turned to look at Fabian.

Back then, lots of people tended to surround Fabian when recess came. Today, however, nobody was even standing near him. Seeing that, Isabelle took the chance to walk over to him before patting him gently on the shoulder.

Fabian was obviously still slightly traumatized by the embarrassment from the donor appreciation event, so Isabelle was standing close to him to ensure that he remained calm.

“Umm… Is Fabian here?” asked a girl who stood at the door out of the blue.

“He is. What’s the matter?” asked Isabelle.

“Oh, Mrs. South told me to invite him to participate in the competition this evening! She wants Fabian to perform as well!” replied the girl.

“Oh? That’s great! Did you catch that, Fabian? The school’s asking for you!” cheered Isabelle cheerily.

The only response she got out of him was a slight nod.

Seeing his lack of response, Isabelle then slammed on her desk before exclaiming, “Hey, everyone! Fabian’s participating in the Taekwondo match this evening! Let’s be sure to go there later to cheer him on!”

“Oh wow, congratulations Fabian!” shouted most of their classmates.

After all, while Gerald clearly had the money, Fabian was still a very influential figure in their university.

Since everyone wanted to see him perform as well, all of them began heading to the school’s stadium.

“Let’s go too, Gerald! Classes usually head to and sit together in the stadium!”

“Sure thing!” replied Gerald. After all, he honestly wanted to watch as well. He had always dreamed of becoming a martial arts master when he was younger.

Though Gerald slowly matured as he grew older, in turn giving up on his childhood dream, he still enjoyed watching martial arts performances.

Besides, even if Fabian had something against Gerald, Gerald didn’t really hold any grudges against him. All these reasons were why Gerald was still willing to follow the rest of the class to support him.

By the time they arrived there, the stadium was already fairly crowded. However, since Fabian had been invited to join, Gerald and his classmates were given front row seats so that they could cheer even harder for him.

After all, it was honestly a pretty grand occasion, and such occasions required large audiences and loud cheers for champions like Fabian.

As Gerald walked toward the row of seats that had been reserved for his class, he noticed the sheer amount of competitors who were participating. Even Maia and Warren were present.

A surprising thing for most of the students in the stadium was the fact that both Warren and Wyatt were standing side by side, each wearing Taekwondo uniforms.

Even more surprising was the fact that while everyone from Warren’s class was holding on to signs while loudly cheering him on, not many were actually cheering for Wyatt.

That made it quite obvious that their class was well aware of how skilled Warren truly was.

While Fabian was warming up, he caught a glimpse of Warren, resulting in him getting instantly startled.

“He… He’s here?” said Fabian in shock.

It was also at that moment when Warren noticed Fabian’s presence as well. He was equally as startled as Fabian was as the two eventually walked up to each other.

“You’re… The champion of Sunnydale’s Youth Taekwondo team, right? I watched your national match last year!” said Fabian, respect reflected in his eyes.

“That’s me, and you got second place in this year’s Salford Youth Taekwondo match, didn’t you? I heard it was a close spar and that you could easily have ended up being the champion as well!” replied Warren, still a little surprised to see him there.

To think that both of them had been invited by the school to perform.

It didn’t take long for the other contestants and the audience to begin looking in their direction after realizing that the two martial arts experts were having a conversation.

“Yeah… I recall that you got to a pretty high rank in the nationals too. Truth be told, I’ve always wanted to spar with you. Looks like this will be a great opportunity to do just that!” said Fabian as he stared at Warren, a hint of competitiveness in his voice.

Hearing that, Maia smiled at Warren, clearly proud of him. After all, not only was he an absolute prince charming, he also had a great reputation worldwide for his great Taekwondo skills.

Being recognized by even people from overseas only served to make Maia admire Warren even more.

“It truly is!” replied Warren, a soft smile on his face.

Upon hearing their request to spar, the organization team immediately approved of the suggestion. After all, two superior martial artists sparring against each other would definitely be the highlight of the event.

The champion of Sunnydale versus the first runner up in Salford. This was surely going to be quite the show!

Even quite a few of the contestants were getting pumped for the spar, feeling much more fired up now to give it their all in their final matches.

While Gerald continued focusing on the competition, he felt Marven nudging him by the elbow.

“Brother Gerald, look at who’s sitting over there!”

Turning to look at the direction Marven was pointing at, Gerald was surprised to see that both Jasmine and Mindy were also watching the match.
