Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1223
“Now Aiden, you know me well enough to know that I’m not the kind of person who enjoys chasing after girls in the first place! I’m only doing what I did since I need that girl to help me with something!” replied Gerald as he shook his head, a wry smile on his face.
Gerald chose not to go into detail—about the fact that he needed invigorating blood from a female with a strong yin physique—since he didn’t want Aiden to worry about him.
Since both Aiden and Yoel had already helped him a lot in the past, now that they could finally afford to have a stable life, Gerald didn’t want to drag them into his own problematic situations again. Explaining things in only the most general sense was an active choice on Gerald’s part.
“Hahaha! I see, I see… Well if that’s the case, consider yourself lucky to have bumped into me! After all, if you didn’t already know, I’m an expert at pursuing girls!” said Aiden with a laugh.
“As I’ve said, I’m not trying to pursue her… I’m simply trying to get her to help me do something willingly!” mumbled Gerald in a softened tone.
“I get it, I get it… Well, that sounds similar to trying to pursue her anyway!”
“…Regardless, I do agree that I’m lucky to have bumped into you today, Aiden! After all, I know that you always have all sorts of tricks ready up your sleeves! Since I’m running out of time, I really need you to help me figure this situation out! To think that she’s already had such a major misunderstanding with me before I could even make a proper move… I truly have no idea how to proceed from here!” said Gerald.
Though he was strong, Gerald still had his own shortcomings. For one, he really wasn’t good at picking up girls.
After all, he was both an honest and inferior student back when he was still in university. In fact, he was so inexperienced with girls that he would immediately begin blushing when he came face to face with one back then!
As for Xavia, it was through sheer coincidence that he was even able to be together with her in the first place.
With that in mind, it was an exceptionally difficult feat for Gerald to even attempt to earn Noelle’s trust without the proper foundations.
“No problem at all, brother! But before that… I’m currently busy with a problem of my own as well. You see, the only task I have left involves capturing someone who’s as slippery as an eel! No matter how many times I’ve hunted him down, he keeps managing to escape my grasp! We’re still searching for him now, but once we manage to locate him, we’re planning to besiege and capture him in Mayberry City!” explained Aiden with a sigh.
Since Aiden had always been extremely sincere toward Gerald, Gerald didn’t doubt his claims at all. What more, Gerald now understood that Aiden was only looking so exhausted due to him having to chase that thief around.
