Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1954
Whatever the case was, the stall Gerald and Raine had chosen to eat at was established by an old couple.
After sitting down, Gerald immediately called out, “Boss!”
Upon hearing that, an old woman quickly walked over to their table, handing both of them menus as she said, “Well,
hello there! Come have a look at what you’d like to have!”
Hearing that, the duo began scanning through their menus…
Truth be told, this was Raine’s first time eating at a night market. With that in mind, she was rightfully overwhelmed
by the immense amount of options the menu had to offer.
Gerald, on the other hand, had been a regular when it came to ordering night market food. Due to that, it didn’t
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttake all that long for him to raise his hand before saying, “Boss! I’d like to have twenty mutton kebabs, a plate of
fried noodles, one roasted fish, a plate of chicken wings…”
By the time Gerald’s list was done, Raine could only stare wide-eyed at him. What a lot of food…!
Turning to look at her, Gerald then asked, “What about you, Raine? Don’t worry about the costs, just order
whatever you like!”
Shaking her head in response, Raine simply smiled faintly as she replied, “Well… You’ve already ordered quite a bit,
senior… Why don’t we finish that first?”
Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded before saying, “Alright, that will be all for now, boss! If we need any more food,
we’ll tell you “Got it! The food will be served in a while!” replied the old woman with a smile before quickly making
her way back to her stall.
To be honest, even though the other stalls appeared to have quite a number of customers, this particular stall was
barren aside from Gerald and Raine’s table. With that in mind, it was no wonder why the old couple looked so happy
to serve them. After all, they were providing them with business.
Regardless, while waiting for the food, Raine noticed something which prompted her to immediately whisper, “Hey,
senior! Look there! I think the one roasting the kebabs is the old woman’s daughter!”
Upon hearing that, Gerald turned to look at where Raine was staring… and true enough, the woman roasting the
kebabs—who looked to be around the same age as Raine—seemed to be their daughter.
“To think that she’s already earning money at such a young age,” muttered Raine with a sigh, now feeling that she
had it much better compared to her…
Whatever the case was, it was about twenty minutes later when all the dishes were served.
Since the old lady was here anyway, Gerald took the chance to ask, “That your daughter, boss?”
Chuckling in response, the old woman then replied, “She is, actually! My husband and I were around thirty when we
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmconceived her, and we’re just thankful that she’s so responsible and diligent. You know, even though she studies
hard, she still makes it a point to come help us after school! We really appreciate it since we’re too old to get things
done fast enough…”
Realizing that she had said a bit too much, the old woman then smiled before adding, “…Anyway, do enjoy your
meal! I’ll be attending to other things first, but if you need me, don’t hesitate to call!”
Watching as the old woman then returned to her stall, the duo shrugged before starting to dig in…
Since Gerald hadn’t eaten kebabs in ages, being able to eat them now brought back several joyous memories…
What bliss…
However, his moment of peace was cut short when a loud ‘crash’ suddenly filled the air, followed by someone
yelling “Beat it”!
Following that, even more smashing sounds could be heard! What kind of chaos was brewing…?
