Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 152
Gerald was surprised. He stopped to see what they were up to.
“You! Show me your admission ticket right now!”
Ted Lopez’s anger was overwhelming.
To be honest, Gerald looked nothing like a rich young man.
He doubted earlier that this could’ve been a mistake, but after taking a look at Gerald’s clothing.
This definitely was not a mistake!
Ted hated him to the bone.
“Didn’t you check my admission ticket earlier!” Gerald pointed at the female receptionist.
“If I didn’t check, how would I know that a loser just sneaked in!”
“Mr Zimmerman, this is the person, I think he picked up your admission ticket!” Hadley shouted at him, rudely.
After saying that, she approached Gerald and snatched away the admission ticket from his hands.
“Geez, the world is really big and there are all kinds of people, and people like you really think you can just join tonight’s cruise party!”
A few girls covered their mouths as they snickered, their eyes were filled with contempt.
Only then did Gerald understand.
He had a feeling that they called out to him because they suspected that he had picked up someone else’s admission ticket, and it just so happened that someone had lost a ticket, so the first person that they suspected was him!
Gerald was left speechless.
“Mr Lopez, call the police, this person must be trying to plot something bad!” The girls said.
Hedley had already taken out her phone and was ready to call the police.
“Mr Crawford, so you’re here!”
Just then, Aiden Baker and the others arrived.
They came running over.
“Huh? Aiden, it’s you!”
Yancy said at the same time.
“Nice to meet you, Aiden!”
The few beautiful girls beside Yancy greeted him respectfully.
The Baker family’s assets were over a hundred million dollars in total.
“Oh, Yancy, so it’s you guys!”
The group, like Aiden, were all third-year students at Johnhurst University.
Of course they all knew Aiden Baker, the big bully of Johnhurst University.
“Mr Crawford, do you know them?”
Aiden laughed and asked Gerald.
“I don’t know any of them. They accused me of stealing their ticket and sneaked in, they were even going to call the police to arrest me!”
Gerald smiled bitterly.
“What? Steal their tickets? Who the f*ck said that?”
Aiden was furious.
Hadley was stunned. She had heard of Aiden Baker, and he was considered quite famous, just like Mr Holden.
But why was Aiden so polite towards this loser?
And what did Aiden just call him?
MrCra…Crawford?
“Mr Baker, please let me explain, I think there might be some misunderstanding. We were just suspicious of this young man and we only wanted to check his admission ticket. After all, you know how important this cruise party is!”
“Hehe, of course I know! Ted Lopez and Yancy Zimmerman, do you both know who this person is?”
Aiden pointed at Gerald.
“He’s Gerald Crawford, the owner of Mayberry Commercial Street. Do you seriously think he would steal your tickets?”
“What? He’s Mr Crawford?”
The crowd had their jaws dropped all the way to the ground.
“Oh! Mr Gerald, I’m really sorry!”
Hadley’s legs were trembling.
She immediately bent and bowed at him.
The words that came out of Aiden’s mouth were obviously valid.
“Umm, Mr Crawford, I’m really sorry. I really didn’t expect…”
Ted felt a lump forming in his throat, he tried to apologize respectfully.
Not to mention, the girls who stood next to Yancy and mocked Gerald were simply nymphomaniacs.
So, he was the super-duper rich guy, Gerald Crawford!
Ah!
And they have just said something so mean towards him.
Ugh!
Gerald was used to all the mockery. He did not feel like he needed to slap them across their faces. Even if he wanted to, he would have slapped Hadley right in the face when she tried to stop him earlier.
He was only here for a simple meet-up, and he did not want to cause a scene.
All he did was to flash a tight smile across his face, then he headed into the hotel with Aiden Baker and the others.
His phone rang again, and it was Elena Larson calling.
“Mr Crawford, have you settled in yet? I’m afraid I won’t be able to get over to you!”
“What’s the matter? Is something wrong?” Gerald tried to listen closely as Elena sounded quite anxious.
“Argh, I think I’m about to go mad! As you know, I’m at my cousin’s house now, and guess what. My cousin wants to introduce a boyfriend to me, but I don’t want to! My cousin is not letting me go and there’s no way I can hide, argh, Gerald, what should I do!”
Elena had always been well-mannered, but from her tone, Gerald could tell that she was really frustrated and helpless at the same time.
“Oh, it’s simple, just tell them you have a boyfriend!”
“But here’s the problem, I got all excited and told her that my boyfriend is already here, but I can’t go out to meet other guys and such. My cousin started forcing me to introduce my said boyfriend to her, but where am I going to find a boyfriend? This is such a mess!”
Suddenly, Elena lowered her voice, “Gerald, can you do me a small favor?”
“Oh sh*t, what do you mean by that?” Gerald’s eyes widened.
