Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 322
However, if it was indeed true that Gerald was a powerful and influential man, they would prefer to die rather than
accept that fact.
Cassandra recalled the time she had suffered terribly and had a restless night when she found her power bank in
Flynn’s car before.
“I was nervous back then and now that I think about it, I’m not too sure if I had called Gerald anymore… However,
it is undeniable that the first contact number in my contact list is his. The second is my cousin’s, whom I called just
this morning. If we’re talking about connections, it could be her. She works as a vice president for an international
trade enterprise so she would definitely know a lot of people,” said Naomi, careful with her words.
“That sounds much more logical. Your finger could have accidentally tapped her number. Following that, your
cousin must have arranged for the rescue! Some of the guards here look like they could be SWAT cops while the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtothers look like gangsters!” Cassandra said in a soft voice to them as she analyzed the members of their rescue
team.
“Did we guess correctly, mister?” Felicity asked Leopold. They were quite sure that they had made the right
conclusion.
However, Leopold’s face didn’t move a muscle. He simply opened the door of the Maybach which was parked in
front of the other cars. It was the same car which Gerald and Michael had arrived at the factory with.
“It’s time to return to your college. Get in the car,” said Leopold.
“You’re avoiding our question… That must mean we guessed correctly!” Yvonne said happily.
“Mister, may I borrow your phone? I wish to call my cousin.” Yvonne’s confidence had assured Naomi that it was
indeed her cousin who had saved them.
“Very well, Miss Milton,” said Leopold as he handed his phone to Naomi with utmost respect. All of them then
entered the car.
“Hello? Cousin, is that you? This is Naomi. Were you the one who had orchestrated the rescue mission?”
“I wouldn’t say orchestrated but yes, I was the one who called the criminal investigation team. Have they already
saved you? They work really fast. I’m glad to hear that you’re fine. I had tried to call you back earlier but the line
kept going to voicemail. So I called your counselor but that failed too. I began to worry that something bad may
have happened so I sent a message to your classmate, Gerald, to look into the situation. He told me that you had
been kidnapped!” Naomi’s cousin said nervously.
Wait… How did her cousin know about Gerald? Was it because she had that many connections? Actually, where had
Gerald gotten the money to buy that phone and those clothes for Xavia before? Was it even possible to earn that
much money through a part-time job alone?
Thinking back, it was Naomi who had asked her cousin to find a place for Gerald, Harper and the others for their
part-time jobs.
Sometime then, her cousin had occasionally made Gerald run errands for her. That was probably the reason why
she had Gerald’s, Harper’s, and a few of her other friends’ contact numbers in the first place.
“I see… Well don’t worry, we’re fine now. They’re taking us back to the college at the moment.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That’s good to hear. Rest well, I’ll meet up with you tomorrow. You’re going for an internship soon so I’ll have to
discuss the work details with you anyway.”
“Got it. Make sure you hit the hay soon too!”
Sitting so close to each other, the other girls were able to listen in to the entire conversation.
Putting two and two together, they eventually pieced the puzzle together.
It was indeed Gerald who had notified her about the kidnapping.
“That stupid Gerald! He knew we were being kidnapped but he didn’t do anything about it!”
“If Naomi’s cousin hadn’t called him, who knows what would have happened to us!”
“I’m going to strangle him to death once we return to college!” scowled Cassandra under her breath.
All of a sudden, Felicity yelped in pain. It seemed as though she had hurt herself somehow.
Biting her lower lip in pain, Felicity moved her hand beneath her to find whatever had hurt her butt.
She pulled out a small coat that had a phone inside it.
“I’m terribly sorry mister, I accidentally sat on your clothes!” said Felicity apologetically.
“…Hmm? This coat looks familiar…”
It took her a moment, but when she realized who it belonged to, Felicity was dumbfounded.
