Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 653

Gerald had just retrieved some porridge for Queta when he received a text message from an unfamiliar number.

After reading its contents, Gerald was stunned.

‘Mila’s returning to Hong Kong? Already? I haven’t even had the time to explain myself to her yet!’

Immediately after, he began driving to the airport. On his way there, he bombarded Mila with endless calls.

However, not once did she pick up.

Alas, when he finally arrived, he was just in time to see a plane slowly taking off.

Gerald was so anxious at that moment that he was ready to make some arrangements to get a helicopter to catch

up with her.

However, before he could do anything rash, he received another text message.

This one came directly from Mila.

“Gerald, I’ll be returning to Hong Kong first. You don’t have to explain anything to me regarding what had happened

today. I believe in you. To tell you the truth, I was acting out of spite earlier because of my jealousy. I honestly just

wanted you to coax and pacify me. However, now I’m aware that I’ve never even considered your feelings before

doing all that! For now, please don’t come looking for me yet. I just need some time. Forever loving you, Mila.”

After reading the message, Gerald was even more anxious now. He continued scratching the back of his head as he

wondered, ‘What could this mean? Why would she say such things out of the blue?’

Gerald hit his steering wheel in his slight frustration.

‘It’s been such a long time since we’ve last met, yet she’s already gone before we’ve even had a chance to talk to

each other properly…’

When Gerald returned to the hospital, he was visibly still upset.

In the end, Gerald couldn’t help but tell Queta about what had happened, hoping that she could give him some

advice about the matter.

‘What exactly did Mila mean by that message? Does she want to break up with me? Or is it truly something else…?’

After hearing Gerald’s story, Queta simply smiled.

“She’s not breaking up with you at all! Didn’t you see that she specifically added the part saying she loves you

forever? I’m sure she wrote that knowing for sure that you’d overthink the message. Don’t worry Gerald, it’s clear

that she simply wants to be left alone for a while!”

Gerald simply sighed internally when he heard Queta’s answer.

‘In short, she’s still mad with me…’

‘If only I hadn’t agreed to help Giya, none of this would have happened!’

‘Regardless, Mila did say that she wanted to be left alone for a while… It would be best if I didn’t disturb her for the

time being…’

‘Alright, once I find Xara in the Salford Province, I’m going over to Hong Kong to meet her.’

The very next day, Gerald, Queta, and Finnley rode together on the high-speed rail headed for the Salford Province.

Gerald’s was on a mission to find someone there.

Before boarding the high-speed rail, Zack had told Gerald about a small property located in the Salford Province

that Gerald’s sister had invested in before.

While she seemed to have long forgotten about it, it was the reason why he now had someone in the Salford

Province to help him.

Since he had relevant connections there and sufficient money, it would only take a few more days to look for said

person.

“Do have some fruits, Mr. Quick! I’ve cut some for you!” said Queta who was still slightly weak.

However, it was obvious that she was feeling grateful to Finnley for saving her life. In fact, she had been taking

good care of both Gerald and Finnley from the moment they entered the high-speed rail.

“So… Where exactly is your house, Mr. Quick?”

“I’ve forgotten the exact address, but I’ll definitely be able to look it up again once we arrive at the Salford

Province!” replied Finnley.

Gerald could only smile helplessly at that.

Just as Gerald looked out the window, seemingly deep in thought, he heard a baffled female voice saying, “…

Gerald? Why are you here?”

This surprised him. To think that he would bump into an acquaintance here of all places. Turning around to see who

had called him, he found out that it was Maia!

Beside her, was another person whom he had bumped into the other day. If he remembered correctly, his name

was Warren.

The two were sitting just opposite of them and they seemed to be part of a group that consisted of a few other

unfamiliar people.

What surprised him the most, however, was how they were dressed. In contrast to what they were wearing on the

day they last met, they were now all dressed up like students.

By then, a girl from Maia’s group was also looking at Gerald, following Maia’s gaze.

“I’m headed to the Salford Province! Where are you going?” replied Gerald casually.

“We’re going there too! But there’s no need for you to know why we’re going there!” said Maia calmly.

‘What a serious coincidence!’
