    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 447


    The moment Gerald finally got his hands on some porridge, he felt a light pat on his shoulder.


    It was Lilian with a bag of food in hand.


    “Say, Gerald! You haven’t eaten yet, right? Come sit with me! I’ve just bought some delicious food from


    outside the hospital so let’s eat together!”

    “I’m fine. Aren’t you still on drips? Why are you here at the cafeteria?” asked Gerald as he smiled.


    He didn’t know why Lilian had suddenly be so enthusiastic. It was slightly uforting.


    However, despite the fact that she would often ridicule him, Gerald didn’t hold it against her at all.


    That was the only reason why he was still speaking politely to her.


    “I- I’m fine! I was fine the moment I saw you! You’re… Just like my medicine! Didn’t you know?” asked


    Lilian with a questionable smile on her face as she looked at Gerald.


    She was now standing very close to Gerald and her arm would rub against his from time to time.


    Gerald could feel goosebumps all over his body.


    To be honest, Lilian had a perfect body figure and looked extremely beautiful. This was because she


    used to be an art student and she was the captain of the Latin dance team as well.


    Compared to Sharon, she definitely looked more enchanting and she was more seductive too.


    However, when Gerald had talked to her just a little earlier, her attitude wasn’t like this at all. What had


    happened under the course of half an hour to make her this enthusiastic? Honestly, she was somehow


    too enthusiastic this time around.


    “Is there something you need, Lilian?” asked Gerald, thoroughly weirded out.


    “Oh, don’t worry about it! Foodes first! You know, I ran downstairs to buy some food just now


    because we all know cafeteria food isn’t the greatest in the world! They’re overpriced here too! But


    enough of that, look at what I’ve bought!”


    In addition to some roast chicken, some drinks, and various other dishes, Lilian had also bought a hot


    egg crepe.


    “I know how much you like eating egg crepes. I remember back during our high school days, you would


    usually only eat steamed buns with pickles for lunch but on weekends, you’d be willing to treat yourself


    to an egg crepe after saving a few dors. Since I saw a stall selling egg crepes by the roadside, I got


    one for you!”


    Before Gerald could reply, she had pulled him down to sit with her.


    Gerald felt a little moved when he saw the egg crepe. Back when he was still living in poverty, egg


    crepes were like food for royalty for him.


    He still didn’t know what Lilian was up to. However, seeing how enthusiastic she was and how much


    food she had bought for him, Gerald felt like it would be a little too cruel to just turn around and leave


    her like that.


    Besides, Lilian was also now starting work as a teacher at the Scothow Elementary School. It was a


    school that he had built himself, so he would be able to look out for her in the future. Looking at it that


    way, Gerald became more willing to ept this treat from her this time.


    However, the main reason he continued sitting there was still because he didn’t like the idea of outright


    rejecting her before even listening to what she had to say.


    “Come now, eat the food while it’s hot! Why don’t you put the porridge down first? I’ll tell you something


    once you’re done eating!” said Lilian as she pushed the food toward Gerald.


    After doing so, she cupped her hands on her face as she looked at Gerald with a smile.


    Gerald began eating and after a while, he asked, “So, what’s the matter? You can tell me already.”


    Gerald couldn’t help but hope that Lilian really had a change of heart. If that were the case, then Gerald


    would definitely be more willing to help her out since they were ssmates in the past after all.


    “Well… Hehe… I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend for one day! Just for tomorrow! If you help, I’ll


    always remember your kind deed!”


    “…What?”


    Gerald was so shocked that he almost spit out the egg crepe in his mouth.


    Again with pretending to be someone’s boyfriend?


    This wasn’t Gerald’s first time doing that and he knew it wouldn’t be hisst either.


    It was exactly because of that that he had inadvertently given some girls the wrong idea when he


    teased them while pretending to be their boyfriend.


    Since it was all just for show, it would be impossible for him to really get close to the person anyway. So


    why should he even pretend to be their boyfriend?


    Gerald was sensitive to the matter for sure.


    This was because Gerald was really afraid that eventually, someone woulde up to him to ask his


    help for a fake marriage too! That would open an entirely different can of worms.


    “Hmm? What are you afraid of? It’s just for one day, and you’ll just need to help me put on a show.


    Please?” asked Lilian as she ced her hand on top of Gerald’s gently.


    She was begging sincerely for his help.
