Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 555
“I’m sorry, Gerald…” said both of them simultaneously. The two girls bore expressions filled with embarrassment
and regret.
“That’s quite alright!” replied Gerald as he gave a gentle smile. Though he was still being nice to them, all three of
them knew that their friendship could never truly properly be mended. What’s done was done, and they could
never go back to the way things had originally been. Gerald would only treat them as acquaintances now. Nothing
more.
Both Sharon and Xella understood what Gerald was implying. The two knew that they couldn’t just rewind time to fix
all their mistakes, and simply understanding that made them feel like their hearts were being pierced by thousands
of needles. If only they were still friends, this reunion could have gone so much better.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot wanting to prolong the awkwardness any further, Gerald decided to head back since it was getting late anyway.
For all he knew, that psycho Queenie had probably gone home. Gerald really didn’t have the energy to walk all the
way back, so he simply used one of the company’s Audi A6 cars to drive home.
Just as he got to the entrance, Gerald bumped into yet another acquaintance. She was holding on to her purse and
it seemed like she was waiting for a cab.
It was Michelle. Since Gerald hadn’t bothered to wind the car’s window up, Michelle managed to catch a glimpse of
him as he was about to drive out.
“Gerald?” called Michelle out to him.
Gerald didn’t like ignoring people, but he really wished he could just leave at that moment.
He wasn’t really fond of this person. After all, she had openly expressed her dislike toward him. She even had her
own sister substitute her for her blind date with him! He treated this as a direct insult, which was why Gerald didn’t
intend to speak to her this entire time.
“What do you want?” asked Gerald coldly as Michelle came closer to the car.
“Ah, well, I just wanted to thank you for today! If it wasn’t for you, we may not have gotten out of that situation
unharmed! The other girls that came with me were my colleagues and some of them have already gone home,”
replied Michelle. Gerald noticed another shorter girl standing beside her as she said that.
“There’s no need to thank me. If I were to have any say in this, I wouldn’t have let any of you in in the first place. It
was Jarvis who did!” said Gerald coldly again.
‘It’s unnecessary at this point to show her any kindness.’ Gerald thought to himself.
His words were so blunt that her face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
She knew that the blind date incident had ruined their relationship before it even had a chance to start. She
understood very well that she had crossed the line, but she wasn’t willing to just leave it at that.
Michelle had initially not wanted to go through this embarrassment.
After all, it was fine to just remain as strangers and never speak to each other again. Wasn’t that what she had
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpreferred all along?
However, after that incident in the restaurant, she couldn’t just leave it at that. Just like everyone else, she just
couldn’t bear seeing him make such an immense comeback.
‘You’re nothing more but of the many guys that I’ve rejected.’ This was what she thought.
If Gerald had remained the way she had initially thought of him, she wouldn’t have had such a big reaction. To think
that this ‘optional’ man turned out to be this powerful! This made her extremely upset, especially when he didn’t
even seem to want to talk to her. He just went straight for the entrance with his Audi!
“I’d… I’d like to apologize for… You know…. Alright, I know I was wrong for flaking on you!” said Michelle as she bit
down hard on her lower lip.
“There’s no need for an apology. To be frank, I only see you as an acquaintance, so if there’s nothing else, I’ll be
heading off now!” said Gerald dismissively as he immediately drove off.
Michelle was now terribly upset and angry. This was the first time she had ever been ignored by a guy. She felt her
eyes start to water. Not only did he turn out to be extremely powerful, but he barely batted an eyelid when he
ignored her and just drove away.
It wasn’t long before Gerald passed both Toiun and Fuenti.
