    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 323


    “…Eh? Isn’t this the coat I bought for Gerald?” Felicity asked aloud, a clear confusion in her voice.


    There was no doubt about it. It was definitely the coat she had bought for him in the mall that afternoon.


    “Are you sure Felicity?” asked Cassandra, stunned at her im.


    She took the coat from her to have a look at it herself, and it was true. It was indeed the exact same


    coat.


    ‘How could this be? Why would his coat be in this particr Maybach?’ The girls were all thinking the


    same thing, their confusion reflected in their eyes as they took turns staring at Leopold who was still


    driving.


    Leopold, for the first time since meeting the girls, began fidgeting slightly.


    Mr. Crawford had specifically ordered him to keep his identity a secret.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    However, with the progression of the girls’ conversation, things were bing awkward for him very


    quickly.


    “That’s my coat. I usually just leave it on the passenger’s seat,” lied Leopold.


    Felicity and Cassandra looked at each other. They doubted Leopold’s im because the coat definitely


    looked like it cost less than a hundred bucks. While Gerald usually wore coats that ranged around three


    hundred dors, Leopold was even less likely to be the owner of the coat.


    This was because the coat Leopold currently wore probably cost at least five thousand dors.


    ‘Oh god, was Gerald in this car before them?’ the girls thought to themselves, shocked.


    “It really is mine, no need to specte. I wear casual clothes too you know!” said Leopold with a slight


    quiver in his voice. He knew they weren’t buying his story.


    A guilty person usually starts talking more. Cassandra knew this as a fact.


    Felicity didn’t believe him either. She slid her hand into the coat and took the phone out. It was what


    had hurt her butt earlier.


    “Isn’t… This Gerald’s phone?” she asked, stunned as she observed the familiar phone.


    “Let me have a look!” Felicity said aloud, her hands shaking slightly.


    Before she could grab it for herself, Yvonne snatched it out of Felicity’s hand. ‘…It’s true!’ Yvonne


    thought to herself.


    ‘Mr. Crawford must have forgotten about his coat and phone earlier while he was hurrying back,’


    Leopold concluded in his mind.


    But Leopold wasn’t one to give in easily to pressure. No matter how much the girls asked after that


    point, he remained quiet and refused to say anything.


    His mission waspleted the moment they returned to college. After dropping them off, he drove


    away immediately.


    “So… Counselor, is it really true? Was it really Gerald who saved us? Why else would his coat and


    phone be in the car! Thinking back, he was the first to learn that we were kidnapped too!” Yvonne cried


    out, almost in tears.


    Her nervousness was warranted as Yvonne had always condemned Gerald. If there were to evere


    a day where he grew more powerful than her, she would definitely feel extremely upset.


    Felicity’s face went pale as well as she considered the thought. ‘If that were the case, what was


    Gerald’s true identity? Could he actually be Mr. Crawford? Or even Ordinary Man?’ Felicity thought to


    herself, slightly shaking.


    “That’s enough! Stop ying the guessing game and calm yourselves for a moment. The coat and


    phone may be simr to Gerald’s, but how certain are we that they’re actually his? Another possibility


    would be that Gerald could have been in the car for a while after he told the police about us. Since the


    police needed to keep the informant’s identity a secret, they sent Gerald to a safe ce beforeing


    over to save us. Aren’t those exnations logical as well?” Cassandra exined her theories in a


    quivering, but mature voice.


    She had experienced a simr nervousness before. In fact, Cassandra was probably the most nervous


    among the girls at that moment.


    It was because she knew that Gerald had borrowed her power bank before this. It was left behind in a


    Rolls-Royce. Now both the coat and his phone were left in the Maybach. It was just too much of a


    behavioral coincidence.


    What more, Gerald was the first to suspect that something was wrong in both incidents.


    At the moment, Cassandra’s mind actively refused to link the coincidences together.


    “That’s enough. How about this? We’ll go to Gerald’s dorm and ask him about it in person. We’re going


    to ask him what happened today.”


    Cassandra said again.


    “Alright. If we’ve our phones with us, we could give Gerald a call!” Yvonne reacted soon.


    “Tried it. It won’t work since the phone’s switched off and the battery’s dead anyway.” Felicity sighed as


    she lifted her hands in the air to show her resignation to the idea. “However, we can still take the coat


    and phone along with us to pass them back to him when we meet himter. Hopefully all our questions


    will be answered.”


    Back in the men’s dormitory, Gerald shed his clothes off, leaving only a pair of shorts on before hey


    on his bed.


    All of a sudden, the dorm’s door was flung open with a loud bang.


    A scream followed shortly after.


    It was Harper as he ran off to find something to hide his underwear from in view.


    “Counselor Felicity! What on earth are you doing here?”
