Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 78

Gerald withdrew his hand and said, “It’s alright!”

To be honest, although Gerald was a little annoyed when he had been belittled by Kyle Smith, there

was nothing he could do about it.

Why?

Because Gerald felt as though the whole world had stopped when he mistook him as Mila’s boyfriend.

And when he knew that he wasn’t, the whirlwind of emotions had made him unable to get angry with

him anymore.

“Oh right, Gerald!”

Mila’s beautiful sparkling eyes looked at Gerald with concern. “You looked pale just now. What’s

wrong?”

Although Mila had been busy introducing her cousin to Gerald, she was still observant enough to sense

the changes in his mood.

“Nothing, really. It’s just that I thought he was your boyfriend!” Gerald replied with a wry smile.

“Pfft! What?! You thought my cousin was my boyfriend? Haha!” Mila laughed out loud.

“How is that even possible! Actually, I have never gotten into any romantic relationships. Maybe I have

high standards when it comes to choosing a boyfriend.”

Mila sat down, and her remark triggered Gerald’s interest.

“What standards do you have for your boyfriend?” Gerald asked tentatively.

“The first thing I want my boyfriend to have is poise. Whether he is rich or poor, he must have a good

poise! And the second thing is that he must not look ugly at the very least. Thirdly, he should have a

kind heart and is loyal to his partner. Fourthly…”

“There’s still a fourth standard?!”

Gerald was getting a headache.

He could barely pass half of the first three.

He did not look ugly, and he perceived himself as a kind man.

As for his poise, Gerald admitted that even he himself thought that he was quite a hillbilly.

Although it was undeniable that he was a second-generation rich, he did not show any confidence of

being one whatsoever.

This was his biggest flaw!

It looked as though he could not keep a low profile any longer!

Gerald decided that in his heart.

Meanwhile, Gerald had planned to give her the gift, but he changed his mind in the end.

Although Mila had told him about her dream man casually, that was still what she wanted.

Since Gerald had not fulfilled all the criteria, he bet it would not be easy for him to pursue her.

It would be a better idea for them to be friends first. There was no need to rush.

So, over the next few days, while they were attending their driving lessons, Gerald did not show any

intention of him wanting to pursue Mila, and they simply got along as friends.

In fact, they got along pretty well and Mila had started to open up to Gerald, sharing all her thoughts.

Gerald was even getting suspicious of the action Mila had taken in telling him about the qualities her

dream man should have. Did she tell him on purpose to stop him from pursuing her? Was she hinting

that they should just remain good friends?

Was she trying to turn him down without hurting his feelings?

It was until that day when they were supposed to take the driving test together that it happened…

They had agreed to go back to the university together after the test.

However, after Gerald had finished his test, he could not see Mila anywhere.

Gerald tried to call her, but her phone was switched off!

They had two chances to pass the test. Even if Mila had to take the test twice, she should not have

taken so long.

Right then, Gerald saw a man who was in the same group as Mila walking out of the driving school

looking dejected.

Gerald approached him right away.

“Oh! That beauty, she did not take the test. It seems that when it was about to be her turn, she received

a call and left in a hurry.”

Mila was a beautiful lady. People would take notice of her wherever she went.

Gerald did not find it strange that this man would take notice of her.

But one thing that bothered Gerald was what happened to Mila. Why did she leave in such a hurry

without even informing him? And she had even switched off her phone.

Did something bad happen to her?

After much consideration, Gerald decided to make a phone call to Whitney.

“Why do you care so much about Mila, Gerald? Did you really think that you could pursue her once you

hit the jackpot? Don’t even think about it, you worthless man!”

It was obvious that Whitney still remembered the incident in Homeland Kitchen where Gerald did not

give her face.

She bombarded Gerald angrily as soon as she picked up the phone call.

“Do you know where she is? If you tell me now, I will repay you in the future. I will give you a Bienvietto

dress,” said Gerald calmly.

He had not given Mila the dress he had bought from Elena’s boutique. Now, he had a chance to make

good use of it.

Gerald needed to know what happened to Mila mainly because she had left without a word, and he

was worried about her.

It was not because he liked her. Gerald would do the same for all he considered as friends.

“Are you serious?! Can you even afford a Bienvietto? Their clothes cost tens of thousands!” Whitney

shrieked.

“Of course. I will send it to you in a moment.”

“Alright, then. Since you finally know how to deal with me, I will tell you. Sigh, I received the news about

Mila’s family just now. Her family business failed, and they are now on the brink of bankruptcy. That’s

why she needed to go back!”
