    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 518


    “Heh, hey Nate! That new guy’s really screwed up big time, hasn’t he? Wait till his trial period ends. The


    department head is definitely not letting him through!” said one of the smokers cockily.


    “You got that right! He dared to get on Nate’s nerves. Nate’s definitely going to make that guy’s life a


    living nightmare as long as he’s still here!” added another guy.


    “Ballsy to say the least! I’ll screw with him too then!” said a third person.


    “By the way guys, I have my eyes set on Bianca, so make sure none of you dare to even make the


    slightest move on her!” echoed a familiar, arrogant voice.


    “Wouldn’t dream of it, Nate!” said everyone else hiding in the washroom. They all then left one by one


    after throwing their cigarette butts away.


    Gerald had been hiding in one of the stalls himself, and he had overheard their entire conversation.


    The Nate they were talking to was without a doubt, Nathaniel.


    It was clear that Nathaniel was the one who had summoned Mr. Murphy to the office earlier. As the vice


    team leader, he would definitely know about Mina’s habits in the office. After seeing her hand her USB


    over to Gerald and knowing how much of a hot-tempered woman she was, Nathaniel had used that


    turn of events as a prime opportunity to humiliate him. What a cunning b*stard that man was!


    Though Gerald had heard rumors of employees ying dirty within the workforce, he hadn’t anticipated


    facing such treatment on the very first day of work. Nathaniel clearly saw Gerald as a love rival now,


    and wanted him gone as soon as possible.


    ‘Well two can y at that game. You’re in for quite a show,’ Gerald thought to himself.


    Gerald then continued with his day, despite having to deal with the added sour remarks from Mina.


    Sometimeter after running some errands, he returned to the office to find everyone standing at the


    entrance.


    None of them seemed to be nning on leaving. Rather, they seemed to be waiting for someone to


    pick them up and a few of them were even on their phones. Fay and the chubby guy from his team


    were waiting there as well.


    “What are you guys waiting for?” asked Gerald with a smile.


    “Huh? What do you mean? Didn’t you receive the text, Gerald?” asked Fay in return, clearly surprised.


    “Text?”


    “Well, the marketing department is hosting a wee party for the neers! It’s for the two of you,


    you know? That’s why we’re all here. I experienced it too when I first joined, and I had a really fun


    time!”


    “I don’t think I’ve been informed about this at all, though,” replied Gerald as he checked for any new


    messages in his phone.


    “Let me have a look!” Taking his phone, she scrolled through his first few messages and saw that he


    wasn’t lying. There really weren’t any texts regarding the party.


    Fay then took her own phone out and showed Gerald the message that she had received. It wrote,


    “Marketing Department: wee party of the month. Fay Foster: Room 202.”


    ‘Well this is absolutely uncalled for! They invited everyone but me!’ Gerald thought to himself. Though


    he knew that he shouldn’t waste his time or energy being angry over such a trivial matter, he could still


    feel his blood boiling under his skin.

    “Which room are you in, Gerald? Are we in the same one?” asked Bianca who was walking toward him.


    “I wasn’t invited,” said Gerald in a calm tone before sighing slightly.


    “What? That’s not possible. Maybe Miss Miles and Mr. Chandler simply forgot? I’ll ask them


    immediately!” replied Bianca. She wasn’t going to just leave him out since both of them had joined the


    company together. The way she saw it, there was a special bond between them because of that.


    “It’s fine, really! You guys can just go on without me,” said Gerald as soon as he realized that it was


    both Mina and Nathaniel who were organizing the event. It was clear that they didn’t invite him on


    purpose. As some of his female co-workers snickered, Gerald simply walked out of the lobby with a


    slight hint of loneliness.


    After reaching his hotel, Gerald was just about to take a long shower when he suddenly heard knocking


    on the door. “Mr. Crawford? Are you there? Mr. Lyle sent me here!”
