Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 963
Though he was dissatisfied, Mr. Lightburn wasn’t a fool. After listening to what his subordinate had to say, he
understood what was at stake if he continued pushing on with the issue. Because of that, he didn’t say anything
more.
Gerald’s Royal Dragon Group itself had developed at an immense rate in the past few days. After all, it now had
help from the five forces it had acquired in Talgo Town. What more, both Tyson and Drake—who had been beaten
up terribly by Sven—were now back at Gerald’s side.
Though their main base was still in Talgo Town, they had recently begun developing in Heavenly City as well. Their
efforts in doing so, of course, had been greatly aided by the Westley family.
“The Royal Dragon Group truly is a powerful dark horse!” muttered Specky—who had been standing next to Gerald
this entire time—to himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I wonder how they got so powerful so quickly…” asked a few girls who heard Specky’s comment.
“Well, from what I’ve heard, the Royal Dragon Group’s boss is extremely powerful! I’ve also heard that the bosses
of the five forces surrendered themselves only after a single round! Because of that, nobody dares to block their
path in the entire Heavenly City now! Well, except for Sven, probably… He still hasn’t returned though!” explained
Specky who seemed extremely well-informed about the entire situation.
Regardless, Quinlan was now extremely smug and in high spirits. After all, now that the Royal Dragon Group had
stepped forward, the incident he was involved with was as good as solved.
Following that, he then began heading to the chancellor’s office together with Marjorie and a few others to discuss
some issues.
As they passed by Gerald, Marjorie took a glance at him. However, she only shook her head slightly and moved on
without even greeting him.
From her middle school days till she was in university, Marjorie had always enjoyed her status as a goddess admired
by all. However, once she graduated from university, she knew it was high time for her to get a boyfriend. Of
course, not just anyone was going to be able to be her boyfriend.
Upon meeting Gerald the first time, she had truly admired him. After all, he was a handsome young man who had a
good disposition to boot! Quinlan, on the other hand, was lacking in every aspect that Gerald succeeded in, or at
least that was what she assumed based on her first impression of them.
After getting to know them a bit more carefully, however, Marjorie realized that Quinlan was hands down the more
suitable candidate to be her boyfriend.
As for Gerald, he was a nobody to her now. Because of that, her attitude toward him completely changed as well.
Gerald himself could only smile bitterly in silence as he watched her ignore him.
While it was technically his Royal Dragon Group that had helped resolve this mess, Quinlan ended up snatching all
the credits from him.
‘Humph!’
Even so, this wasn’t his first rodeo experiencing such injustice.
Recalling the multiple times similar incidents had taken place, Gerald remembered the time when he had regretted
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnot exposing himself. Back then, he had been just as aggrieved as Alice was.
However, he now felt nothing of the sort anymore.
With that, he then returned to the office as the clock struck twelve. It was a little later when he was just about to
get off work when he received a call. To his surprise, the number belonged to Tulip.
“I’m currently in a Starbucks in the city, Mr. Crawford. You’re off work now, right? Could you come over? I have
something urgent to tell you!” said Tulip rather mysteriously.
“What is it? Could you be planning to treat me to some coffee to repay my kindness for saving you?” asked Gerald
in return.
“Well, yes, but that’s not the only thing. Just come over now. We’ll talk more about it once you’re here,” replied Tulip
before hanging up the phone.
Frowning slightly, Gerald knew he still needed to go there in the end. After all, his main purpose was still to maintain
a good relationship with her.
Upon arriving sometime later, he saw that Tulip was seated at a table by the window, a cup of coffee placed before
her.
However, Gerald was surprised when he saw the woman—who looked to be around twenty-four, the exact same
age he was—sitting beside her.
