Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 834
Rose said.
“Hmph! She can leave if she wants to! Out of sight, out of mind!” Lady Yaleman responded coldly.
She then turned around to take a look at the scene of the banquet.
“What’s going on? There were so many distinguished guests at my birthday banquet last year around this time.
Where have they all gone this year?”
Lady Yaleman suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Yuma replied, “Yeah, it does feel rather odd. Why are there so few guests here today? I mean, didn’t I personally
invite them here to the banquet?”
On Lady Yaleman’s face was a sour expression.
She signaled for her butler, Sheldon to step forward.
She asked him about the low turnout rate for the guests they had specially invited to the event.
Sheldon replied, “Lady Yaleman, I’m sorry but I too have no idea why this is happening. Many of the distinguished
guests and partners that we invited suddenly called to say that something has happened and they cannot make it

thirty chairmen of various companies that rang us up to inform us about their non-attendance!”
“What?”
Lady Yaleman exploded angrily, “Hmph! I understand now. They must have planned this together! Looks like our
family’s really on the decline now! If it were a few decades ago, this place would’ve been packed to the brim
whenever the Yaleman family hosted an event. But now, people aren’t even bothering to attend the event, even
after we have personally sent them an invitation!”
Yuma and the rest remained silent.
“Yuma, have you already gotten the project that I asked you to bid for? Or did we come back empty-handed?” Lady
Yaleman asked.
“Our capital turnover is a major problem right now. Mom, I am already working on it as fast as I possibly can. I’ll
come up with a solution for the supply chain issue before tomorrow ends. After that, I’ll try to get our hands on a
lucrative project!” replied Yuma.
“Dear God, our home no longer has the feel of a proper home, and the same’s happening to our bloody business!?
Are we really going to fall behind the Long and Quarrington families just like this?” Lady Yaleman said dejectedly.
Suddenly.
The butler suddenly rushed into the mansion from the main entrance.
“Ma’am! Ma’am!”
“What is going on, Sheldon?” Lady Yaleman asked.
“You…you should hurry up and come out to take a look. There’s a convoy outside with gifts for you!”
Sheldon said and he looked very nervous.
“Huh?”
Lady Yaleman was surprised.
Sheldon would never react in such an exaggerated way if they were ordinary gifts from ordinary guests.
So, who could it possibly be?
Lady Yaleman was momentarily taken aback.
So, she got up from her seat and followed Sheldon out of the house.
Yuma, Rose, and the rest also followed behind them out of curiosity.
When they finally got out of the mansion, they saw more than a dozen Rolls-Royce Phantoms outside the door.
These vehicles cost at least three million dollars a pop.
A team of bodyguards dressed in black were standing in line.
Each of them held a gift box in their hands.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Crawford from the Crawford family sends these gifts to you, Lady Yaleman! The Crawford family wishes you a
very happy birthday!”
The leader of the bodyguards finally spoke up.
Lady Yaleman and the others were all dumbfounded and at a loss for words.
A presentation of gifts could not get any fancier than this!
Seconds later, the first bodyguard opened the gift box in his hands.
“A thousand-year-old ginseng!”
“What? Thousand-year-old ginseng?”
Everyone was surprised.
“An ancient white marble pot!”
“What?”
Lady Yaleman was visibly moved by the gifts she saw.
Yuma and Rose on the other hand could only swallow nervously.
“An authentic Henri Matisse’s painting!”
The third gift box was the next to be opened.
“An authentic Henri Matisse’s painting?!”
Everyone clustered around the butlers.
“Mr. Crawford from the Crawford family? Who is he? How could he possibly be so generous and extravagant?”
