Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1207
Gerald knew Naomi’s personality well. As long as she thought that she was able to solve an issue, she simply
wouldn’t rely on others to help her. In fact, she would still refuse to beg others for help, even if she couldn’t solve
the issue in the end!
He also knew that she was probably feeling guilty about asking for his—and in turn, Zack’s—help after receiving so
much of his money during their last meeting.
‘For a teacher, she still behaves like a silly girl…’ Gerald thought to himself as he drove Naomi to Mayberry First
High School.
Upon parking his car at the entrance, both of them had just taken a few steps into the school when a female
student—carrying a backpack—saw Naomi and called out, “Miss Milton! Hello!”
From her greeting, it was evident that she was one of Naomi’s students. Though her clothes were well kept and her
face was considerably beautiful, Gerald could tell that the girl barely had any confidence in her. After all, she hardly
even dared to raise her head while talking to others. While observing her, Gerald also noticed that her backpack

“You haven’t gone home yet, Sherry?” asked Naomi in a slightly concerned tone.
After lowering her head even more, Sherry then replied, “I-I was told to stay back at school, miss… I’ve already
written about how you remained at school throughout the entire day the day before yesterday… They told me that
it could be used as evidence! I’m really sorry I can’t help with much, Miss Milton! But I truly believe that you weren’t
the one who had taken the money!”
Sherry’s voice slowly got softer and softer, and by the end of her sentence, the now teary-eyed girl’s voice was
barely audible.
Smiling subtly, Naomi then said, “It’s fine, Sherry. You said the truth and that’s all that matters to me… Regardless,
your results have been wavering slightly of late… It’s almost time for the final high school exam you know? Focus
more on that and give it your all, alright? Now, it’s getting pretty late. Hurry along home, now!”
After getting patted on the head, Sherry then nodded before leaving the school.
As Naomi watched her run off, Gerald averted his gaze from Sherry, disallowing Naomi from noticing the sudden
seriousness in his eyes.
“…She’s the most obedient student in the class, you know? She’s extremely diligent when it comes to her studies as
well. Seeing her that hardworking, I was always willing to stay back at school to teach her… However, it was about
a month ago when her mood suddenly turned slightly bad… I’m not sure what happened, but it influenced her
results slightly negatively as well!” said Naomi, concern in her voice.
“Studies aren’t the only thing you should be concerned about, you know? If you think the student deserves it, then
as a teacher, you should be concerned about her life as well. You should take note of whether there are any sore
spots that she refuses to talk about, or whether something’s happened to her family… Things like that, you know?”
replied Gerald as he smiled at Naomi.
“You almost sound like you’ve previously worked as a teacher yourself,” said Naomi as she returned the smile.
“I have, but nowhere near your level of dedication, of course! I was a Biology teacher for a short period, but then
again, I only taught by reading out of the textbook!”
Amused, Naomi simply chuckled at his reply, and soon enough, both of them arrived at the principal’s office.
Before they even entered, however, both of them could already hear the frantic yells of a woman from inside the
principal’s office.
“I’m telling you, officers, she’s the culprit! You really don’t have to investigate any further! I swear to god that
there’s nobody else capable of doing the deed! Besides, not only do we have a testimony now, but we also have
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmaterial evidence! I mean, just look at the house she’s just bought for herself! I’ve been wondering for a while how
she was so willing to suddenly fork out so much to buy that house! At long last, I finally realized that she had her
eyes on the cash this entire time! It’s been her plan this entire time, I tell you! So again, there’s no need to
investigate anymore! Just capture and take her away already! Imprison or shoot her in the head, I don’t care! Just
do whatever you need to do!”
“Miss Yallop, please be quiet… Solid evidence is needed before we do anything…” replied the male officer as both
of the police looked helplessly at Yasmine.
It was at that moment when Gerald and Naomi decided to step into the principal’s office.
Staring at the teacher who looked to be around the age of twenty-four, Gerald remembered how Naomi had said
that Yazmin’s husband was quite capable.
While Naomi had only been able to join the school after passing the official teacher examination, Yazmin was simply
given an important position in the school the moment she was recruited.
As time passed, the difference between Yazmin and Naomi’s capabilities became more and more discernible. With
Naomi clearly being more adept at her job, it was no wonder why the principal had handed the more important
tasks for Naomi to deal with.
Knowing that only caused Yazmin’s jealousy to skyrocket…
