Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1009

Gerald then gave Misty a call to cancel their lunch plan. After all, getting more information from Kaleb was

definitely his priority.

“Well? Is he coming along?” asked Lydia nervously the moment Misty hung up the call.

“He’s probably unwilling to join us since you scared him so much…” replied Misty with a slightly disappointed tone.

“That’s great to hear! Anyway, now that that’s out of the way, Jamie said that we’ll be having our lunch at Logan

Grand Hotel! That way, we’ll simultaneously be able to have a look around the best hotel in the Logan Province!”

cheered Lydia excitedly as Misty returned a bitter nod.

Upon arriving, however, they were immediately stopped by a waiter who was standing by the entrance.

“Apologies, but someone has booked the entire Logan Grand Hotel today. We’re afraid that you’ll have to choose

another restaurant to have lunch in. Again, our sincerest apologies,” said the butler.

Hearing that, Lydia—who had earlier been quite eager to dine there—immediately became disappointed. Due to

her earlier excitement, she had even prepared to snap photographs of the hotel’s interior through her cell phone!

To think that they would end up getting prohibited from entering!

“For someone to book the entire hotel… How many people are attending? Being such a spacious hotel, there will

definitely be seats to spare, right?” asked Lydia.

In response, however, the waiter simply shook his head.

Seeing that, she sighed before stomping her foot in anger as she said, “How annoying!”

“Let’s just go elsewhere… Lunch is lunch no matter where we eat it,” advised Misty.

Agreeing, the group then began leaving the place. However, Lydia herself kept turning back to look at the hotel,

unwilling to just accept that someone had booked the entire place.

Soon after, several luxury cars could be seen stopping at the hotel’s entrance.

Widening her eyes in shock, Lydia immediately recognized all the rich and prestigious people from the Logan

Province as they stepped out of the cars. Making sure that there were no creases on their suits, the group of

prestigious people seemed to be waiting for someone.

“H-hey! Look there! Isn’t that Mr. Zander Lovewell? The president of the Lovewell family?” whispered Lydia in

astonishment.

Following the direction of Lydia’s gaze, Misty soon nodded before replying, “Indeed he is. So it was Chairman

Lovewell who had booked the entire hotel! That explains everything! Still, Chairman Lovewell never hosted such

grand feasts before at the end of the previous treasure exchange events… This means that there’s a possibility that

an extremely important guest is coming over!”

“An extremely important guest, you say?” said Lydia as she and the other members of their group curiously waited

along to see who the distinguished guest could be.

They didn’t have to wait long for the door of a car—that was parked in the middle—to be opened. Out stepped an

old man before respectfully inviting what seemed to be a youth out of the car.

Chairman Lovewell himself took a step forward and respectfully shook hands with the youth.

Lydia, however, now looked extremely stupefied as she said, “…I-isn’t that… Gerald?”

Misty found herself covering her mouth in shock as she replied, “Y-yes he is! He told me he was busy so he couldn’t

have lunch with us! To think that it was because he was coming over to Logan Grand Hotel!”

“Who cares about that? Look! Why are Chairman Lovewell and the others treating him so respectfully? Isn’t he just

a loser?” asked Lydia, feeling as flabbergasted as she was humiliated.

After all, she disliked him a lot. To think that he actually had such powerful connections! For a moment, she even

wondered if all this was simply a hallucination. Sadly, the thought only lasted for a short moment as reality dragged

her back down to earth.

Now that she knew he was so influential, Lydia bit her lower lip as she regretted treating him like that earlier.

Sure, his attire was certainly still lowly by her standards, but looking at him now, he looked quite handsome,

especially when he was standing together with all those rich businessmen.

Gerald himself had now entered the grand hotel with both Zander and Kaleb, completely oblivious to the fact that

Misty and her group of friends had been staring at him in astonishment just seconds earlier.

He had thought that he was only going to have a simple feast with Kaleb. To think that Zander had been invited as

well.

“Are you truly sure that this person holds great strength…? No matter how much I look at him, he seems to only be

a normal youth!” whispered Zander to Kaleb after pulling him to the back for a brief moment.

“And why would I ever lie to you, Zander? Please be careful not to look down upon Mr. Crawford. His strength is

beyond our wildest imagination. Do you understand?” replied Kaleb.

“Well, if he’s truly as strong as you claim, then perhaps the Lovewells will finally be able to resolve our current crisis

peacefully. Should that happen, then know that our family will honor you with the highest respect possible for the

rest of our lives!”

“Humph! If you’re willing to go through so much trouble just to give me respect, then you’d be better off begging

for Mr. Crawford’s help. Should he be willing to stand on our side, then all our problems will cease!”

With that said, both of them re-joined Gerald before entering further into the hotel.

Contrary to a simple lunch, a party had been hosted and after a simple exchange of pleasantries, everyone drank

three rounds of wine.
