    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 31


    ”I…I will not stay here!”


    When Xavia looked at Yuri, she knew exactly what he meant.


    This was too embarrassing!


    Xavia continued shaking her head.


    “My dear, please remember how kind I’ve always been to you. Just wait for me here. I’ll head home and


    look for some money, then drive back here to pick you up. After that, we can just stay outside for the


    night, okay?”


    Yuri nced at Gerald as he said that sentence. This was also a reminder to Xavia that the reason why


    they came for the dinner tonight was because they wanted to embarrass Yuri and she should not forget


    that!


    Okay!


    Xavia calmed down when she thought of Gerald.


    Of course, Xavia had to prove that her new boyfriend was definitely a hundred times better than


    Gerald! A hundred times better!


    She must not lose face in front of Gerald.


    “Okay, fine, I’ll stay here and wait for you. Anyway, I know that you’re rich and you’ll definitelye


    back for me.”


    Xavia intentionally spoke very loudly at this time.


    When Yuri saw that Xavia had already agreed to stay, he hurriedly withdrew from the restaurant.


    Xavia had originally wanted some of her friends to stay behind to apany her. However, Cassandra


    said that it would not be good for so many people to be out of the dormitory sote at night. Therefore,


    she took the rest of the girls back to the campus with her.


    Gerald was thest one to leave the restaurant. In fact, Gerald felt a little distressed when he saw


    Xavia in this state.


    Seriously!


    How could Yuri actually leave Xavia alone at the restaurant all by herself in the middle of the night?


    Gerald could not help but feel his heart aching.


    After all, he had already been in a rtionship with Xavia for more than three years and he would be


    lying if he said that he did not have any feelings for her at all.


    Even though Gerald was very disappointed with Xavia, he could not bring himself to hate her at all. He


    kept persuading himself that Xavia was not really a bad person.


    Gerald did not feel happy at all to see Xavia in this kind of situation. If Xavia would just beg him and ask


    for his help, Gerald would definitely agree without any hesitation at all.


    However, at this time, Xavia simply red at Gerald with a cold expression on her face. She was


    confident that Yuri would definitelye back for her in a short while.


    Ugh!


    Gerald could not help but sigh to himself. If that was the case, then he did not need to worry anymore.


    Perhaps the Xavia that he felt distressed for was the sensible and well-behaved Xavia in the past, and


    not the vain and materialistic Xavia that she had be today.


    Hence, Gerald left the restaurant without turning back.


    Gerald got back to the boy’s dormitory a short whileter. Gerald had humiliated Yuri in front of all of his


    ssmates and it was supposed to be a very happy day for him.


    However, Gerald was not happy at all.


    At this time, Harper came over before he patted Gerald gently on his shoulder. “Gerald, are you okay


    with spending so much money for dinner today? We tried to stop you a few times but in the end, you


    ended up spending so much money anyway. You should have kept the thirty thousand dors instead


    of spending it all at one go so you can enjoy and spend the rest of your days in university more


    comfortably.”


    Gerald smiled before he said, “Huh? Who told you that I only won thirty thousand dors from the


    lottery?”


    “What?”


    Gerald’s roommates quickly gathered around him because they were all in shock at this time.


    “Well, I have a lot more money than this and even though the meal tonight cost quite a huge sum of


    money. In actual fact, I did not spend that much at all.”


    Gerald quickly exined the situation to his roommates.


    “How much did you win from the lottery then, Gerald?”


    “Yes, how much did you win from the lottery, Gerald? Don’t keep us in suspense any longer!”


    At this time, Harper and the rest of his roommates were all lying on Gerald’s bed as though they would


    not let him go to sleep if he did not tell them the truth.


    Gerald was helpless and he could only show them his fingers.


    “Eight? Eighty thousand dors?” Harper asked with a shocked expression on his face.


    “Let’s go to sleep already! It’s Saturday tomorrow and I have to go to the library early in the morning to


    study. I have to go to bed early in order to wake up early tomorrow!” Gerald replied as he covered his


    face with his quilt as he got ready to sleep.


    “Tell me! Is it eighty thousand dors or eight hundred thousand dors?”


    Harper was very anxious. However, after harassing Gerald for a short while, Harper decided to give up.


    Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.


    In fact, it did not matter to him whether Gerald won eighty thousand dors or eight hundred thousand


    dors. All that mattered to him was that Gerald finally had some money.


    Harper felt very content as he thought about it.


    As Gerald was hiding beneath his quilt, he could not sleep even though he really wanted to sleep.


    This was because he was still worried for Xavia.


    He did not know if she had already returned from the restaurant.


    In fact, Gerald had actually conducted an investigation on Yuri before and he found out that his family


    was not exactly very rich. Yuri’s father owned a factory and he gave Yuri about one thousand dors for


    his allowance every month. Moreover, Gerald knew that Yuri did not have a lot of savings.


    He would definitely not have enough money to pay the bill tonight.


    Moreover, based on his personality, Gerald knew that Yuri would not go back and pick Xavia up from


    the restaurant.


    Gerald thought that Xavia would definitely call him to ask for his help. However, Gerald waited until


    midnight and Xavia did not call him at all.


    Why was he worried about her in the first ce? The person that she loved was Yuri, and not him…


    Gerald felt very helpless at this time.


    The next day was a Saturday. While Gerald’s roommates were stillzing in bed, he received a phone


    call early in the morning but it was not a phone call from Xavia. Instead, it was a phone call from Zack!
