Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 470
Leia told Leila to remain home as well to accompany Douglas.
As for Gerald, he immediately called Zack as soon as he got out of the house.
Once Zack had been updated on the matter, Gerald knew that the situation would be dealt with swiftly. This was
Zack after all.
As Zack immediately set out to start making the appropriate arrangements, Gerald headed to the supermarket to
get all the items on Leia’s list.
Once he had everything, he returned to the Jung family’s house.
When he set foot into the house again, however, a massive change had apparently taken place.
“Congratulations, Uncle Jung!”
“Thank you! I really hadn’t expected the Dream Investment Group to actually take over the real estate project! To
decide to take over the entire project… I’m honestly stunned!”
Willie didn’t need his drip anymore. His initial paleness was all gone and in his raised hand, was his cell phone.
“Gather round, everyone! All of you need to enjoy a good drink with me today! Especially you, Douglas!” shouted
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWillie joyfully.
To him, he felt that Douglas’s father’s help was crucial in the Dream Investment Group’s final decision. His own
connections may have also played a part in that.
To simplify, the leader had called Willie just a while ago to tell him that his position in Weston Merchants Holding had
been reinstated. He was also to take charge of this project in the future.
They would then collect a donation and the matter would be completely resolved.
How could he stay depressed after hearing all that?
Willie then looked at both Douglas and Leila. He had an idea in his mind.
“Leila, let me tell you…”
“Gerald, have some food!”
Just as he was about to say something, Willie saw Leila serving some dishes to Gerald.
He was utterly shocked. “Leila! What are you doing? Gerald still has both his hands, doesn’t he? Let him get his own
food!”
Leila turned to look at him before replying, “Dad, actually, Gerald…”
“Uncle Jung, Gerald’s no longer who he used to be!” shouted Douglas as he glared fiercely at Gerald before Leila
could finish her sentence.
If Leila was just going to relay the same information, he would be the one to say it!
“What’s so different about him now?” asked Aunt Leia as she served another dish on the table.
“See, Gerald here won the lottery! With the money, he bought himself a Mercedes Benz G500! That’s the reason
why Leila’s treating him so well now!” replied Douglas enviously.
“Oh my god…”
Everyone seated around the dinner table was shocked.
“How much money did you win?” asked Aunt Leia as she subconsciously gulped.
Gerald didn’t know what to say.
He had lied to Leila and told her that he had won the lottery just so he could conceal his identity back then.
Apparently, now he had to lie to an entire group of people.
“I just used most of the money to buy a Mercedes Benz G500!” replied Gerald.
“You used the money to buy that? You won more than three hundred thousand dollars through the lottery?”
Everyone was shocked silent. Gerald remained quiet as well.
All of a sudden, Willie slammed his chopsticks against the table, staring at Gerald with a cold gaze.
“What a fool!”
“Gerald, other people are free to show off, but don’t you even realize how poor your own living conditions are? Why
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmare you even trying to show off? Wasting your money to buy a Mercedes Benz… Do you even know how much you
could have done with that three hundred thousand dollars?” yelled Willie as he shook his head.
Douglas was satisfied. He smiled as he said, “That’s true, Uncle Jung. If he had only used one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars as a donation for your fundraiser, you could have arranged a position for Gerald in the labor
dispatching department! Ha! But all Gerald knows how to do is try to compete with other rich heirs!”
“See? Douglas is clearly more knowledgeable! Gerald, let me ask you. Have you bought a house for yourself in
Serene County?”
Gerald simply shook his head, knowing where this was going.
“Have you found a job?”
Gerald sighed as he shook his head again.
“Oh, I haven’t seen anyone as brainless as you are! Why are you spending so extravagantly? Get a decent job first
then start working to make an honest living for yourself! Tell you what, sell the car again immediately. If you’re
lucky, you’ll be able to get at least two hundred and seventy thousand dollars back. With that money, you can buy
yourself a house. Once that’s done, I can arrange a job for you with social insurance and housing funds. ”
“What else, what else… Ah yes, there’s one more thing,” said Willie as he sipped some wine before looking at
Gerald again.
