    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 127


    ”I didn’t bring a gift.”


    Gerald could not help but offer a regretful smile.


    He originally wanted to prepare a gift for her grandmother but M stopped him. She felt that the both


    of them could just give her grandmother one gift and naturally she would look for the gift herself.


    Hence the reason Gerald turned up empty handed today.


    He simply came to attend the birthday banquet to make M’s grandmother happy. Who would have


    known that Irene would deliberately bring this up to make things difficult for him?


    “What? He did not bring a gift? I thought that M’s boyfriend would be bringing something valuable


    along with him too!”


    “Isn’t M’s boyfriend also a rich second generation? Logically speaking, he should also be well-versed


    with basic etiquette and manners. This is the first time that he’s meeting her grandmother, but he did


    not bring anything with him at all?”


    “He definitely falls shortpared with Irene’s boyfriend, Keh!”


    Hush whispers and mumbling echoed amongst the rtives and friends.


    Despite the soft chatter, their conversations were still quite clearly heard amongst everyone present.


    Upon observing the situation, the olddy failed to keep a straight face.


    She was not the kind of person who enjoyed receiving gifts but as an elderly person, image and


    reputation were the most important things.


    She then dropped her sense of affection towards Gerald as she had been to Keh.


    She simply replied that it was alright and asked Gerald to take a seat at the side.


    After that, she asked faintly, “Gerald, I heard that your family’s business is doing pretty well. What kind


    of business does your family do?”


    “Oh, we dabble in almost everything!”


    Gerald replied lightly.


    Although Gerald was simply telling the truth, it felt like his reply was being a little disrespectful through


    the lens of M’s grandmother and others present.


    Dabble in everything?


    What kind of industry was that?


    How could he answer a question so carelessly and casually?


    M quicklyughed it off as she said, “Grandma, it’s his first timeing here. If you keep firing him


    with so many questions, I’m afraid that you’ll end up scaring him away!”


    “Okay, okay. I’ll leave him alone.”


    The olddy replied as she then immediately changed the topic.


    After all, the olddy adored M the most.


    “Wait what? Is he scared because grandma is asking him too many questions or is he actually just


    afraid to tell the truth? Sister, why don’t you tell us what kind of family business Gerald’s family is


    doing? I think you should know it better than anyone else anyway!”


    Irene suddenly threw a strange question.


    She could no longer take it as she felt her grandmother always sided whatever M said or did and


    thought it would always be right.

    Her grandmother was always spoiling M.


    The rest of them were all her grandchildren too but she would always throw a fit at them even for the


    smallest mistake.


    Although it wasn’t in Irene’s n to have a row with M, she simply could not tolerate it anymore!


    She wanted to see how stuck-up M could still be today!


    Surely enough, this question caught the olddy’s attention immediately.


    She then suddenly recalled her daughter-inw, Helen’s demeanor earlier towards M.


    The olddy frowned as she asked, “M, are you hiding something from grandma? What business


    does Gerald’s family do?”


    M’s face tightened immediately.


    At the same time, she turned around to look at Kyle.


    If Irene knew of anything, then it must have something to do with her brother, Kyle.


    As she had expected, Kyle did not even dare to meet his sister’s gaze.


    “No grandma, I am not…”, M replied nervously.


    “Hahaha. Are you too embarrassed to tell the truth? Alright then, I will exin everything on your behalf


    then! Grandma, do you know what kind of person Gerald is?”


    “He used to be a well-known pauper from Mayberry University who earns his living by running errands


    for others. Of course, Gerald indeed got some moneyter on after he won the lottery. Guess what


    happened after that? Gerald…”


    M didn’t know where Irene got all these information.


    It seemed as though she was rather well-versed as she told his story and had personally witnessed


    everything with her own eyes as she revealed all of his humiliating past that had happened to Gerald


    before.


    This included how he squandered his money after winning the lottery.


    She revealed everything, in public.


    “What? And M found this kind of person to be her boyfriend?”


    “She even said that he is a rich second generation? I think that this kid is deliberately deceiving M by


    lying and making up his own identity!”


    “Well, people who have already been poor for a long time are always like this. They will not even


    remember their ownst names as soon as they get their hands on some money! He simply won some


    money from the lottery. Does he need to go that far?”
