Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 709
“L-lying? I have no idea what you’re going on about!” replied Raquel as she crossed her arms.
With quite a number of people in the center looking at them now, Raquel really wished she could simply
hide from all this embarrassment.
“…Why… Why are you behaving this way…?” asked Marven as he took in a deep breath.
In response, Raquel only looked to the side in silence.
“Huh, so you’re Marven, right? Raquel’s childhood friend or something? I’ve heard quite a bit about
you! Just look at yourself! Get out of my sight already!” yelled Jefferson as he dangled his Audi A6 car
keys right in front of Marven’s face.
“Hello, hello! Your name was Jeff, right? I’ve been waiting for you to arrive!” said a suited employee out
of the blue as he rushed over to shake hands with Jefferson, a friendly smile on his face.
“Hey there, Aaron! It’s been a while since we’vest met! Sorry for the wait!” replied Jefferson as he
returned the handshake.
“No problem! Alright, so let’s get straight to business. I’ve picked out a few pretty decent ces for you
already! Come have a look at them! And don’t worry about the prices just yet, I’ll definitely be giving
you discounts!” said Aaron.
“Sounds great, let’s go choose one right now!”
After saying that, Jefferson began dragging Raquel by the arm along with him. Since Raquel didn’t
really want to talk to Marven anymore, she simply followed him, standing close to his side.
As she left, Marven slowly collected his thoughts again. Recalling Gerald’s advice definitely helped him
keep his cool. Too many things had happened too quickly earlier, which was why he couldn’t hold his
anger for a brief moment.

Seeing that Marven had sessfully calmed himself down, Gerald simply patted him on the shoulder
and led him back to their initial seats.
“Holy cr*p, Aaron! How could office areas be so expensive now? This isn’t like what I saw online at all!”
It hadn’t even been that long before Jefferson’s exmations could be heard from a distance.
“Really, Jefferson? Do you honestly think this is too expensive? I’ll have you know that these are the
cheapest ones here! Their cements are pretty decent as well!”
“Cheapest? The rent is around a million dors per year! You may as well just rob us clean!” replied
Jefferson, the shock on his face fully visible for all to see.
All this was really too much for Jefferson. Though it was true that his family was quite rich, if he really
was going to spend a million dors just to pay for the rent alone, his bank ount would be empty in
no time!
Raquel was equally as shocked. From the research she had done online, office area rent usually cost
around three hundred and fifty thousand dors per year.
With that cost range in mind, she had calcted that together with Edificio’s poprity and the fact that
it was close to her school, she was going to get one hell of a sweet deal.
Little had she expected for things to not have gone her way in the slightest.
Three hundred and fifty thousand dors had simply been the base rent price. As it turned out, the
areas around the building had rents that could easily go over a million dors!
It was at that moment when Raquel finally realized that luck alone wouldn’t get her through life. Life
simply wasn’t that easy.
A million dors just for the rent? In her dreams!
“There’s really no way I can afford that, Aaron!” added Jefferson, still visibly appalled.
He then turned to face Raquel before saying, “Let’s just find some other ce, Raquel. This really is
too much!”
Hearing that, Raquel felt disappointed.
Edificio was a popr ce, famous for having a high consumption rate. In other words, only those
who had a high status could afford to work in it.
Knowing that she couldn’t match up to that status hurt Raquel’s pride slightly.
She really liked the area too since it was very close to her campus. Imagine being able to set up her
training center here! That would definitely help boost both her center’s publicity alongside her great
ego!
Oh well…
“Well, alright then…” replied Raquel with a nod, looking quite disappointed.
Hearing that, Aaron’s enthusiastic attitude changed drastically as well. After a bit more small talk, he
immediately rushed off with his documents.
“Let’s go Raquel. It’s still pretty early after all! We can still go look at other ces. I’m sure there are
plenty others with more manageable yearly rents!” said Jefferson.
