    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 457


    Gerald had not seen Elena in a while, and she seemed much prettier now.


    “Elena Larson is gorgeous!” a stunned Hayward eximed. Sharon, nheless, wasn’t jealous at all.


    She had to admit that Elena was a real beauty.


    “Of course, she is! Elena is Mr. Crawford’s godsister. She has to be!” Liam smiled.


    “Then why isn’t Mr. Crawford here, Liam?” Le asked.


    She was really hoping to see who Mr. Crawford was.


    “Let me tell you why. My dad mentioned he’s someone who keeps a low profile and doesn’t like


    banquets and functions as such.” Liam exined as if he knew about Gerald very well.


    “Aw!” Le was disappointed.


    “Hey Le, would you like a drink? This fruit juice is imported, it’s excellent! Let me get you some!”


    Dous was unhappy seeing Liam and Le hitting off well.


    “I’m good. Just leave me be.” Le frowned at Dous and turned towards Liam again.


    “I need one, please!” A waiter passed by Lilian, and she reached out for a drink.


    Lilian was parched after what happened earlier on, and she was even more anxious now.


    Elena delivered her speech on the stage as her eyes skimmed around the room.


    Suddenly, someone shouted, and everyone went silent.


    It was Lilian.


    She had discovered how lovely the drink was, and she wanted to get one for Gerald too, but the ss


    slipped, spilling the drink all over him and herself.


    “Oh, no! Let me help you!” Gerald quickly offered to help.

    He grabbed some napkins, helped Lilian clean her dress, then wiped the remainder of the liquid off his


    pants.


    “How embarrassing! She can’t even hold a ss properly!”


    “I know, right! Elena’s still speaking, and she’s only bothered by the food. Ridiculous!”


    A few people seated at the same table insulted her.


    “There is an obvious difference between finding a rich boyfriend and dating a fraud. Even the standards


    are worlds apart!” added Sharon, sniggering away silently.


    “Thank heavens I didn’t end up with her!” Hayward eximed.


    Le just looked at Gerald and shook her head judgmentally.


    “I’m so sorry! I really didn’t mean it!” A scared and quivering Lilian immediately apologized.


    Her face blushed a bright beetroot, and she tugged hard on Gerald’s sleeves.


    “Gerald, I think we should leave!”


    Lilian knew how tall of an order it was to get Gerald acting like someone of wealth, but she chose to


    follow him anyway. Never did she think she would embarrass herself like that.


    “Why should we leave? It’s just a ss. We’ll be fine!” Gerald found it really intriguing that a girl like


    Lilian would have such low self-esteem.


    Gerald remembered his first time attending such functions. He was not unlike her.
