Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1012
Once their meal was over, Gerald left the hotel together with Zander and the others. Upon arriving at the hotel’s entrance, they were promptly greeted by a butler who immediately said, “Some people from the Long family in Yanken wish to pay you a visit, Chairman Lovewell!”

“The Longs? Humph! For what reason have they come over to visit me? Who did they send over to be their representative?” replied Zander who was clearly much more confident now that Gerald had agreed to help him.

“They sent the second lady of the Long family! She’s currently waiting to meet you and she even brought along several great gifts to celebrate the success of the treasure exchange event!” explained the butler.

Upon hearing that, Gerald lifted his head slightly.

The second lady of the Long family? Could it really be…?

“Does the Long family’s representative bear the surname of Yorke, by any chance?” asked Gerald.

In response, the butler immediately smiled before saying, “She does, indeed!”

So it really was Xavia!

For some reason, Gerald felt rather peculiar the moment he heard that Xavia was here. After all, he hadn’t met her for over a year now and he had completely forgotten about her until today.

With the passing of time, it was natural for incidents of the past to slowly be forgotten. However, there was one incident that Gerald knew he wouldn’t ever be able to forget.

That incident being the time when he was being pursued by both the Longs and the Moldells almost an entire year ago. While both families had desperately tried to kill him back then, Xavia had let him off, essentially saving his life.

‘It’s been over a year now… I wonder how she’s doing now… Regardless, she deserves to live a peaceful life… In other words, it’s better if we don’t meet at all,’ Gerald thought to himself before laughing slightly bitterly.

“Mr. Crawford…? Mr. Crawford…” whispered Zander beside him.

“…Hmm?” replied Gerald as he snapped out of his daze.

“Haha! I was just wondering where you’re currently staying. If it’s convenient for you, why not move into the Lovewell family’s manor for now? I’ll tell the others to arrange the best room for you if you agree,” suggested Zander.

“Sounds good,” replied Gerald with a nod.
