Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 679
“A chance?” asked Queta in surprise.
In his mind, Gerald thought, ‘That unlicensed tour guide I met with earlier might be our next best shot.’
‘Come to think of it, that slick plump man cheated me of three hundred dors!’
Gerald recalled the moment when he had heard the uproar near the hot spring area just as he was
about to give that man a piece of his mind. Because of that, Gerald had failed to get him to share more
information about the girl.

However, Gerald was certain that that man definitely knew more about her. After all, the middle-aged
man had said himself that the girl had been there twice.
After making up his mind, it wasn’t difficult for Gerald to locate where the man lived.
It was around noon when Gerald and his men drove to the unlicensed tour guide’s house.
Upon arriving, the tour guide—who was thankfully at home—recognized Gerald and instantly became
nervous.
After all, he had only cheated the three hundred dors off Gerald knowing full well that Gerald wasn’t a
local.
Unfortunately, local or not, Gerald was now at his home with a group of ck-suited bodyguards
standing behind him.
“Um… Good day sir… What exactly are you nning to do?” asked the middle-aged man as he
chuckled nervously.
“Oh, I don’t n to do anything. I just came here to meet you!” replied Gerald as he slid his left hand
into his pocket before casually entering the man’s house without even waiting to be invited in.
Once he was inside, Gerald immediately sat on the man’s couch as his subordinates entered as well.
Each of his subordinates looked like men who shouldn’t be trifled with.
Finding the television remote, Gerald then began flipping through the channels. He was deliberately
acting like he owned the ce, not even bothering to say a word to the middle-aged man.
Seeing that, the man gulped, uncertain of what to do since he had no idea what Gerald had in n for
him.
Not knowing what else to do, he went toward Gerald before saying, “Um… Sir, I really don’t think I need
that three hundred dors anymore… If you look around, you’ll notice that my family’s condition isn’t all
that optimal. In addition, there are both old and young ones living in this house… I’ll get straight to the
point. I’m in quite dire need of money and I admit to cheating you of three hundred dors… However!
I’ve not touched a single penny of that money, and I’ll dly return all of it to you!”
The plump man was obviously experienced in his craft. He knew how to read the situation well, and
with Gerald here, the slick man knew that he couldn’t afford to displease him.
Hearing that, Gerald simply pinched the bridge of his nose before smiling slightly.
“Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m not here to retrieve that money. On the contrary, if you’re willing to
cooperate and tell me a little more about something, I’ll hand you even more cash!”
Hearing that, the plump man then forced a smile before saying, “Is this about that rich youngdy from
before? Why are you so interested in her, sir?”
“Hmm?”
Without even waiting for Gerald to say another word, a bodyguard standing beside him instantly red
at the middle-aged man.
“Ah, I understand. I shouldn’t ask what isn’t appropriate. I get it now. Regardless, I’ve truly only met her
once. While I know that she’s both rich and influential, I’m honestly clueless about her origins.
However, I do know something else. She’s about your age and she studies in the same school as my
son! He even knows her!” replied the man as honestly as possible, knowing very well that he couldn’t
mess around with Gerald.
He then stood up and shouted, “Come over here, Marven! These people aren’t here looking for
trouble!”
“Oh? I see! Coming!”
Soon after, the door to what seemed like a bedroom creaked open and out stepped a plump young
man. His body’s shape was almost identical to his father’s.
Still, it was rather ridiculous how the middle-aged man had made it sound like peopleing over to
cause trouble for him was nothing new.
“Hurry up and tell this fine gentleman about the rich youngdy from your school!”
“Well… She’s equally as mysterious, powerful, and influential in our school. While she studies in the
ss beside mine, we have our union ss together. However, she never says a word to us! All of us
are quite frankly terrified of her and nobody really dares to take the initiative to speak with her, not even
the teachers! Though who can really me us when she’s always surrounded by so many powerful
bodyguards!” replied Marven with a chuckle.
“I do, however, sit in the row beside her at times to eavesdrop on her conversations with her friends.
Due to that, I came to realize that they enjoyed traveling all over the ce! It’s also the reason why my
dad was able to act as their tour guide at the scenic spot!”
So the plump young man was equally as witty as his father. It was clear that everything that he did
served to help his father gain more business.
Regardless, after hearing what Marven had to say, Gerald became much more intrigued by the girl.
What a mysterious person she was.
