Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 651
After a short while of Gerald waiting anxiously outside the ward, both Finnley and Dr. Hudson exited the ward.
When Gerald saw both of them, he found it slightly odd and suspicious that Dr. Hudson now seemed much more
respectful toward Finnley. Gerald had also noticed that while they were leaving the room, the doctor had almost
tried supporting Finnley’s arm, though he quickly changed his mind at the last second.
“How did it go?” asked Gerald.
“She’s almost cured! You can go in and pay her a visit now!” said Finnley with a chuckle.
Hearing that, he entered the ward immediately to check on Queta. She was looking much better now compared to
earlier, and even the usual rosiness on her cheeks had started to return.
“You don’t have to worry, Gerald. Mr. Quick has exceptional medical skills!” said Queta as soon as she saw him,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtclearly worried that Gerald was still concerned about her condition.
“That’s good to know!” replied Gerald, breathing a long sigh of relief.
“Thank you very much, Mr. Quick!” Gerald then said as he gave Finnley a nod.
The old man had truly helped Gerald a lot. Though Gerald had been quite annoyed with him in the beginning, he
was now filled with sincere gratitude toward Finnley.
“It’s no big deal! My grandson, if there’s nothing else, can we leave now?” asked Finnley, evidently talking about
Gerald sending him back to his hometown in the Salford Province.
Finnley seemed like he really wanted to leave now, which led to Gerald’s expression immediately turning somber.
After all, he still had one more issue to attend to. Though Mila had misunderstood him, she was now so angry that
she wasn’t willing to even listen to his explanation. What should he even do now?
“Hold on for a little while longer. We’ll head there as soon as I settle this issue!”
After saying that, Gerald told Queta to take a good rest first before leaving her ward to make a call.
Even though he made several consecutive calls, Mila hung up immediately every single time.
Gerald could only sigh internally.
“Mila, why don’t you pick any of his calls up…? Maybe he’s changed his mind by now!” said Molly. Back at the Smith
family’s house, Mila and her friends were seated in front of the television while eating snacks.
Seeing how Mila had hung up on every single one of Gerald’s calls, Molly couldn’t help but try to advise her.
“I refuse!” said Mila as she threw her phone aside while nibbling on a potato chip. She was clearly behaving this way
out of spite.
At that moment, the doorbell rang.
Mila immediately sat up when she heard the familiar ring.
Her parents weren’t home, so the person at the door could only be Gerald, right? Though Mila was certainly angry,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe wasn’t unwilling to meet Gerald.
Instead of her, however, Molly was the one who opened the door.
“Humph! So you still know that- …Huh? Why is it you?” said Molly, her tone indicating clear disgust.
“Is Miss Smith here? I need to talk to her about something!” replied a pleasant feminine voice.
The woman at the door was none other than Giya.
“Why did you come here?”
Mila definitely didn’t have a good impression of Giya. In fact, she resented her.
If Gerald had nothing to do with Giya, why was she latching on to his arm so intimately? Why had she even wanted
to be engaged to Gerald in the first place?
“Miss Smith, I would like to talk to you in private, if that’s alright?” said Giya.
If Giya had simply chosen to return home after all that, she knew how uneasy she would eventually feel if she didn’t
settle the things between her and Mila first.
