Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 824
Bea’s aunts started ridiculing her and sneering at her.
Bea’s mother, on the other hand, stood at the side of the room, not daring to speak up for her own daughter.
She simply wore an ugly expression on her face.
She had already told Bea many times not to come here with Gerald. However, it was clear that Bea was defying her
order as Gerald was standing right there!
“Third aunt, sixth aunt, he is not my boyfriend. He’s actually my cousin, Gerald!” Bea replied.
“What? Ger…Gerald?!”
“It’s him!”
Silence descended upon the room as soon as those words came out from her mouth.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Gerald.
Although they knew that Yulia had given birth to a pair of children, Jessica and Gerald, after she left, this was the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfirst time that they had seen either one of them in two whole decades!
“How blessed and fortunate that woman is to have such a handsome son!”
One of the women sneered slightly.
“Cousin, let me introduce them to you. This is…”
Bea started introducing her relatives to Gerald.
Gerald greeted them politely one by one.
However, aside from his fourth uncle who responded with a smile and a nod, pretty much every one of them were
ignoring him.
“Why are all of you standing up? Sit down!”
An old lady yelled as she entered the living room with the assistance of a helper.
“Mom, come and take a look! Your beloved granddaughter, Bea, has brought you a gift right before your birthday!
That woman’s son has come to see you!”
Rose marched over to give the old lady a hand while wearing a nasty sneer on her face.
“Hmm?”
The old lady immediately turned to look at Gerald.
This was the first time that Gerald had seen his grandmother ever since he was a child.
Naturally, he felt a bit excited to see his beloved granny.
“Grandma!” Gerald called out.
The old lady’s hands trembled slightly when she heard him calling her grandma. She did not say anything but she
did respond with a nod.
“Your name is Gerald, right? Where is your elder sister?”
The old lady took a deep breath before she sat down.
“My sister’s abroad now. She is not back yet.” Gerald replied.
“Hmph. Why are you here then? It’s been so many years. Do you even remember that you have a grandmother?”
The old lady asked with a frown.
Although she sounded very cold and indifferent, the reality was the same as what Gerald’s mother had told him
beforehand. The old lady would not be too harsh on Gerald.
When she saw how Gerald bowed his head wordlessly, she started fearing that being overly-blunt would scare the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmchild away.
So, she eased up a little and said, “However, I guess you’re still a filial child since you’ve at least made the decision
to come and see me!”
Both Yuna and Rose were surprised to discover that the old lady was far from being angry at Gerald.
Yura was especially shocked. The humiliation and embarrassment he suffered yesterday was a result of Gerald’s
actions after all.
Since he held a grudge against Gerald, he tugged at his mother’s arm under the table.
Rose immediately started sneering. “Hahaha! Mom, you think too well of him, don’t you? Haven’t you realized?
They haven’t seen you at all in the last twenty years but why are they suddenly here now? To think that they even
have the guts to appear before you one day before your birthday! How outrageous! I’m gonna be blunt here,
they’re just here to get their hands on a share of the Yaleman family’s inheritance! Why else would they even think
of you at all?”
After Rose’s attempt to sow discord, it was clear that the old lady started acting with caution around Gerald.
“Gerald, are you really here to get your hands on a share of the Yaleman family inheritance?”
The old lady asked with an unhappy expression.
