Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 595
Gerald soon arrived at his seat. Even as he sat down, a few of the wealthy businessmen were still not done
proposing their toasts to Yunus.
At that moment, Xavia looked at Gerald, hinting with her eyes for him to take action.
“Just look at what they’re doing! Just wait till my godsister comes back!” said Yoel, dissatisfied.
Gerald simply took in a deep breath before picking his wine glass up and walking toward Xavia.
“…Bother? What are you doing?” asked Yoel.
“Don’t interfere. Mr. Crawford definitely knows what he’s doing!” said Zack though he too was quite surprised when
he saw Gerald heading toward her. However, he knew Gerald well enough to know that he wouldn’t be doing this
without a purpose.
“Ah, Mr. Crawford, you came here to propose a toast as well?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs soon as the businessmen there saw him, they immediately made way for him.
They were all the same as Wallace. Regardless of whether they had the Long family backing them up or not, they
couldn’t afford to offend Gerald.
After they hurriedly stood to the side, Gerald stood in front of Xavia.
Yunus was also there, and he sneered at Gerald while staring at him, his hand in his pocket.
“I’d like to propose a toast to you, Xavia!” said Gerald as he raised his wine glass.
While Xavia should have stood up to accept the toast, she simply remained seated while slowly shaking the red
wine in her own glass.
Without the slightest warning, she then splashed the red wine all over his face!
“I accept! This glass of red wine is to repay you for how much you hurt me in the past!” sneered Xavia.
“Also, don’t you dare call me Xavia anymore! You don’t have the right to use my name! Pay more attention to that
in the future!”
“…What?”
Seeing her splash the wine all over Gerald’s face left many, if not all, of the businessmen stunned.
F*ck! This wasn’t as simple a slap to the face anymore!
“Presumptuous!” shouted Zack as he and a few others immediately stood up. A conflict was imminent.
However, Gerald simply wiped the wine off his face as he signaled for the others to leave it be.
“Very well then, Miss Yorke. It should be fine for it to be done now, right?” asked Gerald as he raised his wine glass
again.
“Indeed!” replied Xavia as she laughed slightly. However, after raising her second glass of red wine, she poured its
contents all over Gerald’s head!
“This one’s for my personal revenge!”
Everyone was simply dumbfounded by the scene.
She finally drank a glass of red wine after Gerald’s third toast to her.
So it turned out that Xavia had personally been waiting to deal with him there and then. Gerald couldn’t help but
feel a slight bitterness in his heart as he returned to his seat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn all honesty, he wasn’t afraid of her at all. However, he was already at wit’s end. He just didn’t know how else to
deal with her anymore.
Knowing that she was still a virgin made it even harder for him. The whole situation just made Gerald feel very
confused and conflicted.
After the banquet ended, Zack went to look for Zayden, the master appraiser who had come all the way from
Northbay.
Gerald on the other hand, went to look for Xavia.
She knew that he would definitely come looking for her, so she was already waiting for him outside the manor.
“I’ve done as you asked, Miss Yorke. I hope that you’ll order your men to leave Queta alone now! You’ve already
achieved your goal of humiliating me today anyway!” said Gerald.
“Haha! Rest assured, I only hold a grudge against you. I don’t have a reason to hurt her. However, do remember
that you still have to do two things for me!” replied Xavia.
Gerald sighed before saying, “Go on.”
“These two things are actually relatively simple for you to accomplish. Firstly, you’ll have to let me live in your
Mountain Top Villa for a few days! And don’t worry, I won’t blackmail you into giving the entire building to me! You
just have to let me live in it for a few days. That shouldn’t be too difficult, right?” asked Xavia.
“Not a problem!” replied Gerald as he nodded.
