Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 314
“Yes. You’re right. Of course.” Gerald just nodded awaypliantly.

There was no point in arguing. He’d let them talk.
Next, they brought him to the car rentalpany, where they collected the Mercedes-Benz, and set out
for Wayfair Mountain Entertainment.
Now they were back on track.
Gerald had to open the door politely for Felicity to step out from the car. The other girls followed after
and they were all greeted warmly by the staff at the vi.
Why was the vi showing such consideration for Exceptional Live?
It was simple: though neither Exceptional Live nor that uing Yorknorth Mountain event was that
big a deal, the sponsors behind them were. Ultimately, Michael Zeke was trying to put on a show to
impress Gerald Crawford.
As she posed for the photographers, Felicity turned and muttered under her breath to Gerald, who had
been about to follow them inside, “Very good, Gerald. Now take the car to the parking lot and wait for
us there. You’d best stay clear of the event proper, lest you blow your own cover and embarrass us all!
Regarding dinner, you can buy yourself some bread if you get hungry—it’s not like they’re serving the
kind of food you’re used to eating.”
Clearly, she thought he was likely to say something that might embarrass her.
Unbelievable! One day, she’d get her just desserts!
Gerald had had it up to here with Felicity. He had his pride too, for crying out loud! Couldn’t she show
him at least a little respect?
Cursing in silence, Gerald could do nothing butply and bring the car to the parking lot.
He couldn’t reveal his true identity, one way or the other.
Of course, Gerald wasn’t going to just hang around here like a fool.
He’d already decided that while he was here, he’d seek out Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke to discuss
about Rye Group.
When he arrived at Michael’s office, the man was reading a newspaper. When he saw Gerald, he shot
to his feet, caught by surprise.
Momentster, Zack hurried over to join them.
Gerald recounted recent events to them and they in turn shared what they knew about Rye Group.
In summary, Rye Group pre-dated all their other organizations and was a stone-cold criminal family.
In this Mayberry region, they were big shots. As business continued to grow, Henry Rye established a
formal group, going legitimate.
However, for all the legitimate businesses they conducted, some of the things they did…well, Gerald
had some first-hand experience. One example would be when Chad and Danny Xanders attacked
William Rye, and then the Xander family vanished overnight. Then there was Damien Rye, who
commanded his own private army of thugs.
The reason Zack Lyle maintained cordial rtions with them was because of their might. The vast
network of people who served them, as well as their extensive underworld connections, made them a
force to be reckoned with.
Peace begets prosperity, after all.
By now, Gerald had a much clearer understanding of the state of the game. Then his phone rang. It
was his elder sister Jessica, whom he hadn’t spoken to for over a fortnight now.
“What are you up to, Gerald?” she began.
“Nothing much. Just having dinner with Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke!” Gerald answered brightly,
deciding that Jessica didn’t need to know about all this. At the end of the day, she was grooming him to
eventually take over the whole Mayberry Commercial Street. If he went running to his sister for help
with every little thing, what sort of worth would he be demonstrating?
“That’s great. I’m calling to let you know that I’ll be paying a visit to Mayberry in three days’ time and I
want to see my precious baby brother. Hahaha!”
“Oh? You’reing here?”
“Yup—and I’ll have some earth-shattering news to deliver to you, too!”
