    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1206


    Since Gerald had mentioned before that his fate was stillrgely undecided, she had often found


    herself thinking about the worst-case scenarios. It was the reason why she was so d to see him in


    one piece now.


    By then, those living in the neighborhood were already crowding around the duo as they watched in


    jealousy.

    “It must be nice being so rich! I’m sure he can do whatever he pleases!” said one of the men in the


    crowd rather enviously.


    His voice was so loud that a woman—who was returning from a stroll in a nearby park—heard it.


    Finding hisment strange, she then realized that a huge crowd had formed right in front of her


    house!


    Feeling that something was amiss, she quickly made her way through the crowd and was shocked to


    see that her daughter—alongside some man whose back was facing her—was the center of all the


    attention!


    “Still, that rich heir truly is capable… All he did was say a few things to that beauty to gain her


    affection!” said another person from within the crowd.


    Hearing that, the woman growled, “…What?”


    Under the impression that her daughter was getting bullied, she then rushed over and pulled Naomi


    away from the stranger’s embrace while before, “You b*stard! Unhand my daughter!”


    She couldn’t care less whether the person was a rich heir or not. As long as he was trying to take


    advantage of her daughter, she was going to make sure that that yboy would get a piece of her


    mind.


    “Now listen here, you-”


    Momentarily stunned when she saw who the person her daughter had been hugging was, her angered


    face slowly turned into surprise before eventually ending in delight.


    “…Gerald…? Are… Are you really Gerald…?” asked the woman, her shock evident in her voice.


    “Indeed I am, madam. It’s truly been a long time since we’vest met each other!” replied Gerald with a


    smile.


    “And here I thought that someone was bullying Naomi! Well, now that I know who you are, doe in!”


    replied Naomi’s mother happily.


    Since Gerald had cured her illness back then, her sudden change in mood was really no surprise.


    Regardless, all three of them then entered Naomi’s house.


    Upon entering, Naomi’s mother took good care of Gerald and immediately headed off to cook the


    ingredients that Naomi had brought home with her. ording to her mother, Gerald had to stay for a


    home-cooked meal with them no matter what.


    Gerald himself wasn’t about to say no to that, and he simply sat on a sofa, chatting with Naomi as her


    mother cooked in the kitchen.


    While chatting, Gerald eventually asked about the two people that Naomi had talked with back at the


    entrance of the neighborhood.


    Scratching the back of her head, Naomi then exined, “If you hadn’t reminded me about it, I would’ve


    surely forgotten about it by now… I even promised the two that I’d head over to the school to help them


    get to the bottom of the incident once I brought the groceries back home!”


    “An incident? What happened?” asked Gerald, realizing now that the ‘incident’ had something to do


    with Naomi.


    At that moment, Naomi’s mother walked out and said, “It’s all because of that thirty thousand dor


    schrship… You see, not only does Naomi have the position of a ss teacher, but she also


    manages the schrships of the senior students! The thing is, all that money suddenly went missing


    the night before the schrship money was to be distributed! As if that wasn’t already troubling


    enough, a woman by the name of Yazmin Yallop keeps asserting that Naomi was the one who had


    taken the money! Her argument was that Noami was suddenly able to buy a house not long after the


    money was stolen!”


    “While even the school had initially wanted to deal with the situation in a low-key manner, that


    madwoman reported the case to the police and insisted that Naomi was the perpetrator! That’s the


    reason why the officers were looking for her in the first ce!” grumbled Naomi’s mother angrily.


    Following, she then added, “I’m sure you’re well aware that Naomi isn’t such a person, right Gerald?


    After all, even though your subordinates keep trying to hand her money, Naomi never epts any of it!


    With that in mind, why would she even covet the thirty thousand dor schrship?”


    “But of course I believe her!” replied Gerald with a nod.


    “I’m d you agree! But my daughter here… You know, she said she was willing to just admit to


    stealing the money and let bygones be bygones! Just giving away thirty thousand dors for something


    she didn’t do? Not on my watch! There’s no way I’m allowing that Yazmin to take advantage of her like


    this!” growled the angered mother.


    “First things first… Who exactly is this Yazmin person?” asked Gerald.


    “Ah… She’s the ss teacher of the ss right next to mine… She’s been jealous of me ever since I


    took over her position in the grade she’s teaching in. I didn’t even have a say in it when I got


    rmended to get the role during the conferring of academic titles… However, she fully doubts that


    and believes that I made schemes to snatch everything away from her! With that in mind, she’s been


    hostile toward me ever since!” replied Naomi with a sigh.


    “She’s bullying you because her husband is both powerful and capable! Aside from that, you’re also


    slightly at fault for being so gentle all the time! Some people are just like this, you know? The more you


    respect her, the more she’ll think how easily bullied you are. I’ve already told you to tell Chairman Lyle


    about this, but you simply refused… We have Gerald’s support on our side, you know? What are you


    even afraid of?”


    “…It’d be better if you said less about this mom. Regardless, I need to head over to the school since


    the officers are still waiting for me… Do you mind waiting here for the moment, Gerald?” asked Naomi.


    “Actually, I was nning to head to your school to have a look around anyway. Let’s just head over


    together!” replied Gerald as he stood up.
