    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 425


    “Yeah,e on Xe, tell us. What’s wrong?” asked a few of the ssmates curiously.


    Xe nodded before she began sharing an incident that had happened to her in great detail.


    Not too long after, Gerald’s curiosity was sated.


    It turned out that not long after she had been recruited by thepany, her superior began constantly


    harassing her. The superior in question was a deputy manager of one of the departments.


    ording to Xe’s description, the deputy manager was a balding man who had lost all his hair


    around the crown of his head. He looked quite old and obscene in general.


    Initially, he hadn’t dared to do much. He simply asked Xe out to have meals with him.


    After rejecting him several times, Xe eventually found it difficult to continue doing so. Hence, she


    finally decided to ept and have a meal with him one day.


    From that day onward, the man became more perverted and daring.


    He constantly called Xe to his office. At the start, he would only say imprudent things to her from time


    to time. Now, things were getting physical and it was not umon for him to use both his hands and


    legs to harass her.


    About two days before the carnival, the deputy manager had called Xe toe over. This resulted in


    her thigh being caressed by him.


    She was so nervous at the time that she instinctively picked a ss of water up and poured it all over


    the deputy manager.

    Now, she was being threatened to be fired. He wanted her to obey him, otherwise she would have to


    resign from thepany. She was told to be sensible and act ordingly as well.


    After that incident, Xe ended up telling Waylon about what had happened.


    Only Waylon was powerful and influential enough to set the deputy manager straight. Help from her


    ssmates was also wee.


    “Well d*mn! Now I really want to beat up that old pervert! How dare he bully our goddess!” shouted


    some of the men indignantly.


    “That’s the spirit! However, we women really need to learn how to better protect ourselves. We’re


    always being harassed and bullied. You know, a few people who didn’t know about my connections or


    background had constantly requested me to do things for them back when I first arrived at the hospital.


    Once they got to know who my boyfriend was, nobody tried anything funny with me anymore!” said


    Morgana.


    “I know right? Speaking of which, Xe, you and Sharon were both equally the most beautiful girls in


    our ss during our school days. Sharon’s already found herself a good and powerful boyfriend so you


    should definitely do the same! Find yourself a man like that who cherishes you and you’ll bump into


    way fewer problems like this in the future!” added Rae.


    Xe only blushed slightly at this before looking toward the floor.


    “Don’t worry, Xe. After today’s gathering ends I’ll resolve the issue for you! He’s just a deputy


    manager after all!” said Waylon confidently.


    “Waylon I just want you to scare him a little so that he’ll stop bothering me, please don’t do anything


    unnecessary!” replied Xe with a slightly worried tone.


    “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing!”


    “If you want to scare him off, you need to look no further! Gerald’s here and he can easily ask Louie to


    help with that!” said Cameron as he looked at Gerald.


    Gerald looked back at him and could only give a cold smile as the others burst outughing.


    It was a rare moment for Gerald to have finally found someone equally fun, good, and capable.


    However, it didn’t matter in the end.


    Xe looked toward Gerald for a brief moment before averting her gaze and looking back at Waylon.


    Her answer was quite obvious.


    Back in high school, Xe had shared quite a good rtionship with Gerald, up to the point where she


    actively defended him from Waylon.


    Now, however, she was much closer to Waylon.


    Waylon was naturally considered to be the most powerful among the ssmates and he had a lot more


    connections and resourcespared to the others as well. Gerald had nothing except for Louie, as far


    as the people there knew.


    Gerald could understand her reasoning and couldn’t fully me her.


    After experiencing enough in society, ordinary people usually concluded that money and resources


    were much more important than actual friendship.


    Gerald was honestly slightly upset since it happened to someone he had treated like a close friend


    before.


    However, Gerald chose to not say anything about it.


    He simply looked at the others when the topic was changed to ridicule him again.
