Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 880
When Gerald saw their employees staring in his direction, he was afraid that his identity would be discovered.
So, he wanted to leave.
“Why are you leaving? Don’t leave! After all, no matter what happened in the past, we’re at least acquaintances!”
Raquel grabbed Gerald by his collar.
More likely than not, Gerald had really turned into a pauper this time.
Hahaha! Raquel felt overjoyed and relieved to see him in such a pathetic state.
“Come! Come! I want all of you to take a good look at him! Let me introduce you to this young man, Mr. Gerald
Crawford!”
Raquel said as she waved her hand at the employees working in the project department.
They were all sharply-dressed folks, with all of them sporting creaseless business suits.
They had obviously graduated from university not too long ago.
They covered their mouths as they giggled at Gerald.

“That’s right! But isn’t he being really self-reliant? To think that he came out to look for a job for himself!”
However, as executives high up the pecking order, all of them obviously despised and looked down on Gerald.
“Don’t you look down on him! Have you any idea who he is? He used to be one of the ultra-rich, Mr. Crawford! He
drove a luxury car that none of you will ever be able to afford in your lifetime!” said Raquel as she cackled away.
“Ahhh? Is that true? He was actually a rich man?”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. How impressive!”
“I wasn’t able to tell though!”
The girls said as they laughed.
“Gerald, we do not have any other intentions but seeing the state you’re in right now, I believe that you do not even
have a girlfriend anymore, right? Why don’t I introduce a few girls in our company to you then? Who knows, maybe
one of them would be interested in you? What about you girls? What do you think?”
“What do all of you think about Gerald? Anyone who is interested in becoming his girlfriend?”
“Hahaha! Why don’t you go?”
The girls started laughing amongst themselves as they pushed one of the girls forward.
The girl who got singled-out started to sound rather anxious, “Why don’t you girls go instead? God, I hate you
people sometimes!”
“Thanks but no thanks. Now, if you’ll excuse me!”
Gerald lowered his head as he turned around.
“Wait a minute! You haven’t resolved the issue about your wage yet, have you? I heard everything just now. You
were arguing with Mr. Stone over your wage. I mean, it’s just two dollars anyway! We’re such a huge business, ain’t
no way we’re underpaying you. Am I right, Mr. Brown?” Raquel said coquettishly.
“Of course! That is only natural!”
“So, I will settle your daily wage for you! I want you lot to cough up some change right now!”
Raquel spoke as she glanced at the few girls from the project department.
They responded in a blink of an eye.
It didn’t take them long to come up with a large bag of five-cent coins.
“Here, sixteen dollars and not a single cent less. This is your wage for today!”
“Oops!”
Just as Raquel was about to hand the money over to Gerald, she dropped it all onto the ground.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe coins poured out of the bag immediately upon hitting the ground.
“So sorry Gerald, guess I wasn’t holding the bag properly.”
Raquel said apologetically.
“You know what? Why don’t you pick up the coins? You can calculate the amount at the same time! As they say,
‘killing two birds with one stone’.”
After that, Raquel took a deep breath before she gulped down the bottled water that she was holding in her hand.
She then threw the empty bottle at Gerald before she walked away.
Gerald knelt down before he carefully picked up the coins, one by one.
He placed it all back into the bag before he left the place. His lonesome, desolate figure receded into the distance.
As dusk arrived.
Gerald bought some food to eat.
He walked back to the village.
He kept walking and did not stop until he finally arrived in front of Finnley’s house.
Gerald would come here after work every day to see if Finnley was back. But every time, he’d leave disappointed.
However, this time was different.
The door to Finnley’s house was open and the lights inside were on.
