Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 589

While Gerald was walking next to Giya, his phone started to ring. It was a call from Zack.

“Gerald, there’s a celebrity banquet tonight and I hope that you’ll attend. Since a master treasure appraiser from

the South will be attending, you can have him appraise the jade pendant when you meet him. A few other

celebrities from Mayberry will be attending as well.”

Zack was still helping Gerald track down Xavia.

He had brought up the celebrity banquet a few days ago as well. The celebrity banquet was a yearly event and

celebrities from all walks of life usually turned up. Since it wouldn’t look good on Gerald’s part if he refused to

attend, Gerald simply agreed to go.

When evening came, Gerald arrived—together with Yoel and Aiden—at the banquet which was being held at

Mountainview Manor. As was expected, the venue was packed.

The large manor was usually used for gathering events, second only to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment.

The owner of Mountainview Manor, was Wallace Quinnens, a middle-aged man in his forties whom Gerald had met

on several occasions. Due to Wallace’s slick personality, Gerald didn’t really have a good impression of him.

“Well look who’s here? It’s Mr. Crawford!” said Wallace as he hurriedly trotted over when he saw Gerald, Yoel, and

the rest.

Many other wealthy businessmen began approaching Gerald’s group as well, and the parties all greeted each other.

“Hello, Mr. Quinnens!” greeted Gerald as he forced a smile. A greeting was good enough.

Yoel then headed to a familiar round table in the manor and took a seat. The moment he sat down, Wallace

immediately jogged over and said, “Hey, Yoel, Aiden! You can’t sit here today!”

“Huh? What do you mean by that, Wallace?” asked Yoel, dumbfounded.

He had attended similar celebrity banquets like this in the past. This seat in particular was always taken by his

godsister, Jessica Crawford. As Jessica’s godbrother, he naturally sat together with her.

Now that Gerald—his godbrother—was the richest man in Mayberry, Jessica’s seat was Gerald’s to take. This of

course, meant that both Aiden and Yoel should continue to sit where they usually did.

“There’s nothing inherently wrong, but though you’ve sat here in the past, this year, some things have changed so

you can’t sit here anymore,” sneered Wallace.

The attendees for this year’s banquet were celebrities from all over the city. Seeing what had just happened, the

big bosses and rich businessmen surrounding Gerald began walking over.

“Humph, if we can’t sit here, then we won’t! It’s not like we want to see your face anyway. Let’s find another seat,

Aiden. You stay here, Gerald!”

Naturally, Yoel had to think about his godbrother first. Just as Gerald was about to sit down, Wallace shouted again.

“Hold it!”

“What now?” By then, even Zack and Michael had come over to see what the commotion was about.

“I’m afraid that Mr. Crawford can’t sit here this year either,” said Wallace with a laugh.

“Are you out of your mind, Wallace? What did you say? Say it again if you dare!” shouted Yoel as he grabbed

Wallace by his collar.

This son of a b*tch was seriously getting on his nerves.

“No need to be so aggressive, Yoel! I’ll just repeat the statement one final time, this seat isn’t for Mr. Crawford this

year!” said Wallace with a smirk.

“Explain yourself,” ordered the rich men standing by Gerald’s side.

“We just have an even more important guest coming today, and this seat is reserved for him!” explained Wallace as

he shook Yoel’s hands off him.
