Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 999
“Well, hello there! We meet again!” said Haven Lovewell—one of the charming women—as she waved
at the youth.
“We do, indeed…” replied Gerald with a subtle smile as he closed the door behind him. cing his
baggage down at a specially designated area for tourists, Gerald then headed over to an empty table
that was coincidentally beside Haven’s.
As Gerald sat down, Haven added, “Do you remember our little conversation on the train earlier? It was
so pleasant that I even wanted to ask you for your Line number at some point! Still, I never expected to
meet you again so soon… I guess our meeting must have been written in the stars!”
“That’s quite enough, Haven. He came here to have his meal so don’t trouble him any more,” said
Xareni—Haven’s elder sister—as she gently stepped on Haven’s foot, reminding her to be courteous.
“She’s right, Haven. Why did you even ask him for his Line number?” added Quintin.
Hearing that, Gerald simply shook his head before smiling wryly.
As Haven had said, Gerald had earlier bumped into the three Lovewell siblings while they were still on
the train. At the time, the Lovewell siblings were sitting right across Gerald.
Quintin, however, had been dissatisfied with his window-side seat since the old man—who looked to be
around eighty—sitting beside Gerald was an eyesore for him. The old man himself had been sleeping
with his head leaned against the window throughout most of their journey, and Quintin couldn’t bear
having to look at his sleeping face for any longer.
As a result, Quintin asked Gerald to switch seats with him. Though Gerald initially had no problem with
that, Quintin had tossed a hundred dors at Gerald while asking.
If he had been a bit nicer and more polite, Gerald would’ve switched seats with him anyway. However,
from the moment the hundred dors were tossed his way, Geraldpletely ignored Quintin’s
request.

Had Haven not stepped in to advise Quintin, he would’ve definitely started a fight with Gerald.
Later on, Haven herself began chatting with Gerald. Since Gerald has traveled so much in the past
year, he was no longer the same person who only knew about Serene County and Mayberry City.
Due to his extensive knowledge of many different ces, Haven soon found herself getting fascinated
by him.
Xareni, on the other hand, never said a word to Gerald. Being the eldest among the three people, she
was slightly colder and more aloof in general.
That was the gist of their interaction back on the train.
“So, where are you headed to next? Did youe to the Logan Province to study or work?” asked
Haven curiously.
“I’m just here to travel!” replied Gerald with a smile.
“Oh! If you’re traveling around here, then I rmend that you go to a ce called Balbrick Manor!
There are lots of amusing things to do there, from golf to even horse racing!”
“Haven, not everyone can go there… You can’t expect an ordinary person to just go there! Regardless,
just hurry up and eat already,” said Xareni who clearly didn’t like Gerald one bit.
If it wasn’t already obvious, all three of them shared a rather extraordinary background.
Being born with great pride and elegance, Xareni was the least realistic among the three of them
despite being the eldest. She was simply too used to only meeting up with prestigious people. As a
result, she looked down upon normal people like Gerald. To Xareni, such people didn’t even have the
right to befriend her!
“Alright…” replied Haven, saying nothing more.
With that, Gerald ordered a te of fried rice with an egg on it. Once his meal arrived, he immediately
began eating slowly.
As he ate, he realized that the Lovewells didn’t really eat much based on what they ordered.
Sometimeter, all three of them got up to get their baggage. Before they left, however, Haven sneakily
returned to Gerald’s side before whispering, “Hey, I live in the Lovewell Manor in the Logan Province! If
you find the time,e over and have some fun with me! Also, just in case you’ve forgotten, my full
name is Haven Lovewell!”
Before Gerald could even reply, Xareni was already dragging Haven by the arm out of the restaurant.
“…What a na?ve girl she is…” muttered Gerald to himself as he smiled in resignation.
He, for one, was in no mood to have any sort of fun with her.
Now that he was finally getting a chance to ignore all his past resentments and grudges for a few days,
Gerald wanted to take the opportunity to properly rx.
With that in mind, Gerald began touring around tourist spots in the Logan Province. Before he knew it,
evening hade and night was swiftly approaching.
Realizing that he still needed to find somece to stay, Gerald was just about to go hotel hunting when
he heard a voice saying, “What do you n on doing?”
The feminine voice hade from the entrance of an alleyway. Taking a few steps back to look down
the darkened area, Gerald realized that a few drunk youths had dragged a woman into the alley which
only led to a dead end.
“What do you think? We’re going to have some fun with you, of course! Now,e on!” said one of the
three hooligans who instantly began dragging her further down the alley.
As she desperately struggled to escape, the corner of her eye caught a glimpse of another youth
walking toward them. Seeing that someone wasing over to help, the woman used all of her
strength to shove the hooligan—who was pulling her arm—away from her.
Thankfully, the hooligan was drunk enough to let go and the woman immediately ran over to the new
youth’s side before clinging on to his arm and crying out, “They’re trying to take liberties on me, hubby!”
She made sure to pinch his arm as well, a clear indication for him to cooperate with her.
