Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 943
“I still don’t think that the shirt I got for you is suitable for the occasion, sir… Why don’t we stop the car and get you
a new and better shirt? How about it?” asked Yukie with a smile.
She was currently sitting beside Gerald as their team of cars headed toward the gathering.
“I think it’s fine…” replied Gerald as he looked down at his shirt with a slightly bitter smile.
As the cars approached a commercial building, Gerald looked out the window. To his surprise, the first person he
saw was a rather familiar-looking youth.
“Is there anything wrong, sir?” asked Yukie.
“If my eyes do not deceive me, that seems like an old classmate of mine… Or at least a person that resembles him
a lot. Regardless, stop the cars here. I’m heading into that building,” ordered Gerald.
Hearing his command, all the cars under him immediately halted in the middle of the road.
Though this essentially blocked most of the main road, nobody dared to say anything about it. After all, whenever
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe people of Talgo Town saw a team of cars acting like they owned the place, they knew that a big shot—whom
they most likely couldn’t afford to offend—was present.
As a result, the other drivers on the road simply opted to take detours.
Meanwhile, Gerald and Yukie entered the commercial building together.
The youth from before was choosing from an array of suits when he suddenly felt a firm pat on his shoulder.
Shocked, he immediately turned to look at who had done the deed.
His shock, however, quickly turned from surprise to joy.
“F*ck! Is that really you, Gerald?”
“So it really is you, Harper!” said Gerald with a smile on his face.
“I had no idea you were still in one piece! After all, the last time I heard, you had gone missing! So you were in
Heavenly City this entire time! No wonder I couldn’t get any information on your whereabouts regardless of how
much I asked around!” replied Harper excitedly.
“Regardless, how wonderful to be able to meet you here again after so long!” added Harper as he patted Gerald’s
shoulder in return.
“It is indeed! Speaking of which, why did you come here, Harper?” asked Gerald with slight confusion once they
were done exchanging pleasantries.
After all, this place was infamously known for being chaotic. Aside from the locals, ordinary people from the outside
would never come here for any development projects.
“Well, since I’m now working for a large company in Weston that solicits business deals, I’m here on a business trip.
Still, this place truly is as chaotic as they describe. Looking at the people walking down the streets, it wouldn’t be a
stretch to say that nine out of every ten people here have guns on them at all times!” replied Harper with a sigh.
Upon hearing that, Gerald simply smiled.
“But that’s enough about me. What about you? I haven’t heard from you in so long! Have you truly been staying
here this entire time? Are any of your limbs prosthetic?” joked Harper with a laugh.
Being such close friends, it was natural for them to mock each other playfully.
“All my limbs are the real deal! Also, no, I only arrived here not long ago. Regarding the missing aspect… Let’s just
say I lost contact with all of you due to some ‘issues,’” replied Gerald.
Hearing that, Harper sighed before saying, “I see… While I did hear about the incident of you separating from your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfamily as well, it’s really no big deal to me, Gerald. After all, you’ve already enjoyed what you could a year ago.
With or without a family, your life is still very much worth it.”
After saying that, he patted Gerald on the shoulder again.
It was evident that both of them still had a lot to say to each other. Because of that, Gerald then replied,
“Regardless, here’s my contact number, Harper. Let’s meet up again in about two days! I’m a bit busy till then,
sadly!”
“Speaking of which, who’s that? Is she your girlfriend?” asked Harper as he looked at Yukie with a smile after noting
down Gerald’s contact number.
Hearing that, Yukie’s cute face immediately became as red as a tomato.
“I’ll explain the entire situation once I get a chance to in future…” replied Gerald as he smiled rather bitterly.
“Fine, fine… For now, I’ll leave you to your business. I need to buy a new suit too since I’m meeting an important
client tomorrow.”
With that, both of them hugged each other. Just as Gerald was ready to leave, a female voice could be heard
saying, “Hmm? Is that you, Mr. Sullivan? What a coincidence!”
Turning to look at who had called him, Harper found himself smiling as he replied, “Chairman Quelch! Chairman
Brown! What a coincidence!”
