The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1941

The three youths sitting before him went by Yong Haas, Jacque Lennox, and Ferdo Bach, and they were none other than the young masters of the prestigious Haas, Lennox, and Bach families of Schwater City.

Since they were three of the Famous Four of Schywater, it was evident that they had complex backgrounds. What more, they were even shareholders of Schywater University, and the only shareholder that could rival them was the Yonjour Group.

Then again, the four families were nothing in the presence of that group…

Whatever the case was, Yong—who was sitting on the couch—couldn’t help but ask in a playful tone, “Say… I heard rumors that you got beaten up by someone, Yash! Are the rumors true?”

Upon hearing that, Yash simply looked at Yong without saying a word. Just as he had feared, gossip about him being beaten up had already spread like wildfire throughout the university… How embarrassing…

“To think that that brazen kid was able to defeat Yash… Where do you think he comes from?” asked Jacque in a curious tone.

“Who even cares about that? Whatever the case is, since he dared to humiliate the Famous Four of Schywater in the first place, we’ll just make him eat his words!” scoffed Ferdo rather disdainfully.

“Indeed… Regardless, I’m not sure if you’ve heard about this, but there’s been some major changes in the university of late. Essentially, the principal and owner of the university have supposedly changed. What more, according to my father, he heard news that the university’s biggest shareholder is now the chairman of the Yonjour group! With that in mind, the Yonjour Group now owns the university!” explained Yong.

“What? The Yonjour Group has acquired the university? But for what reason?” exclaimed the confused Jacque.

Everyone knew about the Yonjour Group’s power. If the rumors really were true, then the trio knew better than to act hastily…

Whatever the case was, it was noon when Gerald returned to his office.

Shortly after, Natallie walked in before respectfully asking, “Is there anything you’d like me to do, Chairman?” “Before that, there should still be some villas under the company’s name, right, Natallie?” said Gerald.

“Indeed, Chairman. A few remain,” replied Natallie, much to Gerald’s satisfaction.

Nodding in response, Gerald then ordered, “That’s great to hear. I need you to get me the documents for one of our villas. Can you arrange for that?”

Simply nodding in response, Natallie then walked out of his office without another word…

The truth was, Gerald was asking for the documents on behalf of Raine’s family. After all, that family was currently plagued with demolition problems and needed someplace to move to. With that in mind, Gerald was stepping in to help by allowing them to move into one of his company’s villas.

A little over an hour later, Natallie returned with a document folder.

Handing it to Gerald, she then said, “These are the villa’s documents, chairman. Also, all the necessary procedures for moving into it have been settled.”

Taking the documents, Gerald replied with a simple, “Thank you.”

Hearing that, Natallie was prompted to ask, “Do you need me to come with you, chairman?”

“It’s fine, I’ll head there on my own. You can continue working in the office.”

With that said, Gerald then got up and left with the documents in hand…

Natallie herself didn’t think much of it, knowing full well that Gerald had his own way of doing things. With that in mind, she simply did as she was told…

Regardless, it wasn’t too long before Gerald arrived at the hospital. Naturally, he was there to meet Raine and her family.

Either way, the second they saw him, everyone from Raine’s family couldn’t help but smile.

Dexter himself couldn’t help but ask, “Gerald? What are you doing here? Aren’t you busy…? Are you sure we aren’t taking too much of your time…?”

Simply smiling in response, Gerald then replied, “It’s fine, uncle. Regardless, I’m here to discuss something with all of you.”

Seeing how confused they were after hearing that, Gerald then looked at the couple before adding, “I heard from Raine that the place you’re all currently staying in is about to get demolished. I’ve also been told that you still haven’t found a place to stay yet, is that right?”

Hearing that, Dexter simply heaved a heavy sigh, a helpless expression on his face as he said, “Indeed… The houses nowadays are just so expensive, you know? And we don’t really have the money to get a good place to stay… What more, Raine’s mother has just undergone surgery! We’re in a truly perplexing situation…”

Seeing how big a problem it was for the three of them, Gerald then replied in a confident tone, “I see… Truth be told, I’m here to help solve that very issue!”

Naturally, this surprised the family of three.

A brief pause later, Dexter was prompted to ask, “Really? Are you really going to help us out, Gerald…?”

After all, if Gerald truly was stepping in, then their most major problem would surely be taken care of.

“I wouldn’t joke about such things, would I?” replied Gerald, a serious expression on his face as he handed the documents over to Dexter.

Following that, he then explained, “Those are the documents of one of my vacant villas. It’s a nice place and you can all move there. I’m sure that aunt will be able to recover faster there too.”

Upon hearing that, all three of them could only widen their eyes in response, too shocked to even say anything for a while.

Eventually, Dexter snapped out of it before exclaiming, “A-a… villa…?!”

To think that Gerald was actually allowing their family to live in one of his villas! None of them had even dreamt of being able to live in a villa before! “You heard right, uncle. Regardless, all the necessary contracts and procedures have already been dealt with, so you can just move in straight away. Speaking of which, the villa is fully furnished, so you don’t need to get any new furniture!” replied Gerald with a smile.

“T-that… H-how can I even thank you…?” muttered the overwhelmed Dexter, actively fighting the urge to kneel before the youth. After all, without Gerald’s help, they would’ve surely had a rough time on the streets…

“A simple thanks is sufficient, uncle. As I’ve said before, Raine’s matters are my matters, and I’ll help whenever I can,” replied Gerald.

Upon hearing that, Raine couldn’t help but feel touched. Gerald truly was being too nice to her…

Regardless, it was a few days later when Raine’s mother was finally discharged from the hospital. It was also the day Raine’s family would move into the villa.

With that in mind, Gerald had made sure to remind Raine and Dexter to pack all their clothes and personal belongings before getting Raine’s mother from the hospital. That way, Gerald could immediately drive all of them to the villa once Raine’s mother was discharged.

Then again, there wasn’t much to pack in the first place. After all, as Gerald had previously said, the villa was already fully equipped with furniture and electrical appliances. Whatever the case was, the second the trio entered the villa, they were instantly left dumbfounded.

It took him a while to snap out of it, but when he finally did, Dexter couldn’t help but fumble a few steps forward while exclaiming, “M-my god… This… This is extravagant…!”

Yollande and Raine themselves remained stupefied in silence, unable to believe that they were going to live here from now on.

Turning to face Gerald, Dexter—who was still having trouble accepting all this—then added, “A-are you really sure we can live here, Gerald…?”

Giving a firm nod, Gerald then replied, “As I’ve said before, I’d never joke about something like this, uncle. Also, since I own this villa, you don’t have to worry about trouble from others. I should also mention that you won’t have to worry about paying for any of the utilities either.”

Hearing that, Dexter was left utterly flabbergasted. What a saint!
