The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 95

"What's going on?"

The crowd swelled in size. Curiosity was mounting.

"Not sure yet, but it seems that hot babe had something going with that rich dude, but she's also been cheating on him with a toy boy on the side. Now, they're making a scene!" "That's right! The other guy is in the car as we speak! This is going to be the dramatic reveal! I'm dying here!"

"Heh, heh... If only it were me in that car right now. That girl is totally fine! Ah-woo!"

Many of the guys present were making no secret of their envy.

Sitting in the car, Gerald wished he could smash his head against something.

"Danny, what's going on?" Two figures appeared from the crowd. One, a man, and the other, a woman, both who came over to join Danny.

"Oh, Victor, Whitney... we need some help over here!" Danny said.

He briefly explained the situation.

Everyone craved the spotlight. When something was going on, especially with such a large audience gathered, there would always be people who wanted to get themselves involved and be a part of it!

"So that's how it is. Alright, we're all friends here. Let's resolve this matter together. Whoever's in that car, could you please step outside so we can clear this up?" Victor wore a mask of disdain. "That's right, that's right! Come out so we can talk!" Jacelyn echoed excitedly.

"No way! Who do you think you are? Get lost, all of you!" Jane snapped and then turned on her heel, storming off. At this rate, Gerald's good name was going to fall to ruin. She wouldn't be able to make up for that!

But this was only making Luke more anxious.

Burning with jealousy, he was losing all sense of reason.

"Jane, don't you walk away! One way or another, I'm getting an answer out of you!"

Then Danny and Victor were there, trying to open up the passenger door.

However, there was no need.

Seeing how things had reached this point already, Gerald opened the door and stepped out on his own. The way he saw it, if he hesitated any longer, it would only make matters worse! "Gerald!"

"I'll be dmned!" "The hell?!" "What?!" Danny, Jacelyn, Victor, and Whitney all planted their jaws on the ground. "Why are you here?!" Jacelyn gasped. In truth, these few days, Jacelyn had been harboring a major crush on Gerald. Unfortunately, he had remained oblivious to all the hints she'd been giving him. The reason she was going out with Danny was thanks in part to Gerald. Since he had shown no interest in Jacelyn, she had decided to go after one of his classmates instead, hoping to incite his jealousy! Furthermore, he was her main suspect as the true identity behind a certain legendary figure! For the sake of a catch like him, a few underhanded tactics were perfectly justified! However, this proved to be too big a plot twist. "Dmn! And here I was wondering how you'd suddenly struck it rich... Now I see that you were somebody's toy boy all along! And to think you were even flaunting your money for everyone to see!" Danny muttered darkly.

Honestly, finding Gerald in there had just made this much more interesting for him.

Gerald put on a relaxed smile. "Jane was just giving me a lift back to school, haha... You guys are making too much out of this!"

It was an embarrassing situation, but he kept his cool.

"The hell we are!" Danny hollered. "Don't try to wriggle out of this. Our Jane's been keeping you around as her plaything, hasn't she? All that money you've been splurging might very well have come from Luke!"

"What's this? Danny, you know this guy?" Luke regarded Gerald with open hostility.

"Hah! Not only do we know him, but we're also classmates with him! A penniless wretch who became rich all of a sudden... spinning some tale about winning the lottery, but it turns out he was just somebody's pet!"

"Right! That's right!" Whitney piped up. "I heard Gerald was shopping for clothes once, in that upmarket place outside campus... He didn't have enough money on him at the time, but then a girl our age showed up and paid in his stead! And then, he gave those clothes to me! The young woman in that story was loaded and owned the whole store chain... Maybe she's also one of the girls holding your leash, eh?" What had happened was that when Gerald had given that gift to Whitney just a few days ago, she had paid a visit to that same shop at the first opportunity to investigate if he had deceived her somehow.
