Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 223
Lilian was jealous.
She was in no way in a good mood and felt Gerald more of an eyesore when she saw himing over.
She could still maintain some basic form of courtesy in the past, but as soon as Lillian saw him, she
started scolding him.
In short, she had said lots of bad stuff in public.

Everyone came, and after some persuading, Lilian finally cooled down a little.
Gerald really wanted to do one thing right now. He was dying to give Lilian a tight p across her face.
It was already bad enough that she was continually ridiculing him.
Now, she was directly provoking and looking down on him.
“Okay. That’s enough, Lilian. Why nitpick? If he is willing to eat, then just let him eat. You have your
own reputation to take care of. After all, you will be a teacher, and you’ll have a stable job with a
permanent ie!” Hayward said with a smile.
When she saw that Hayward had personallye over to persuade her, Lilian finally calmed down.
“Sigh. This person just makes me so annoyed and frustrated. Although you were poor before, Brother
Hayward, at least you are rich now after receivingpensation. You won’t forget and disregard me
just because of that, right?” Lilian asked as she leaned onto Hayward.
“Why would I even do that? No matter what happens, you, Lilian, will always be my good friend,”
Hayward replied with augh.
Those words made Sharon feel a little ufortable.
In fact, everyone present could sense something wrong in the atmosphere tonight, and obviously, a tug
of war was brooding between Lilian and Sharon.
Both rivals kept fighting secretly as they stuck around Hayward.
Hayward’s hometown was about to be redeveloped. No matter how things would shape up, he was
sure to receive a few properties in return. And just like that, he would bag a few million dors, and his
financial security ensured.
It was no wonder the two beauties were fighting so fiercely over him.
“Gerald,e here! This one’s already roasted!”
Queta looked at Gerald, now clenching his fists, and looked like he was about to explode. Hurriedly,
she pulled Gerald aside.
Queta continued advising and persuading Gerald.
And Gerald did not lose his temper because of her persuasion.
Hahaha. They could patronize him all they wanted now. One thing, though. He couldn’t help but wonder
what Lilian and Sharon’s faces would look like when he could finally announce his identity.
Would they regret their actions today?
Gerald smiled bitterly.
Ignoring them, he simply enjoyed the view of theke with Queta.
That night, Hayward put everyone up at the vige guest house.
Gerald saw that it waste at night, and it seemed as though Queta really wanted to spend the night
here. It was probably because she missed the times she had with her adopted parents.
After Lilian and the others retreated to their rooms, Gerald got Queta and himself a room each.
In short, apart from the incident with Lilian, Gerald’s day was reasonably rxing.
He really couldn’t wait for the mountain to be developed. When that happened, he could live all by
himself in peace and quiet.
It was a quiet night.
Early the next morning, he drove Queta down the hill. He hoped he wouldn’t run into Lillian and the
others. He might just beat them up for real this time.
Gerald suddenly hit the brakes, and the car came to an abrupt halt.
“There is still some time before you start work, and I have some spare time before my ss starts.
Let’s go to that Michelin Restaurant for some food.” Gerald pointed at the Michelin Starred Restaurant
beside the road.
“Wow? I’ve heard my colleagues saying Michelin Restaurants are really pricey. Only the rich like you
can afford those ces! I’m not going in!”
Queta shook her head and looked to the floor.
Gerald smiled. “Don’t worry! I’m cool if you feel like dining here every day.”
Ever since he became posh, Gerald’s confidence had puffed up significantly, especially in the way he
spoke.
