Upon hearing Aiden’s words, the crowd looked toward their direction in shock.
Dickson’s eyes widened in disbelief while Amber’s jaw dropped.
“Hey man, are you my godbrother Gerald Crawford?” Yoel asked anxiously. He never thought that Gerald would appear just like this.
“Yes, indeed!” Gerald answered while struggling to get up. He hissed and took a breath. His body felt numb from bearing the weight of the few pretty ladies who sat on top of him.
“Someone, help me up!”
“Oh my! Mr. Crawford, Mr. Crawford!”
The pretty ladies who were standing nearest to Gerald were stunned. Their screams drowned out Gerald’s voice.
Elena felt afraid and was almost shocked at what she saw. Nevertheless, she still rushed over to help Gerald get on his feet.
Last time, Elena had offended Mr. Crawford before, but Mr. Crawford was not too harsh on her because of her father.
However, this incident seemed very serious. Elena was uncertain as to how Mr. Crawford would be angry about this. She stood aside in silence without daring to say a word. Her brain could not process any response at the moment.
“Mr. Crawford! Who beat you up like this?” Yoel asked as he immediately lunged forward to help Gerald up with his hand.
This scene left Crystal and the few pretty ladies in bikinis dumbfounded. They realized that the VIP of the day was actually Gerald, also known as tycoon Mr. Crawford! Oh my goodness, they thought to themselves, what have we done?!
Since Mr. Crawford found favor in those pretty ladies’ eyes, Gerald went over to visit them. However, they ended up putting Mr. Crawford to shame, wasting the opportunity of getting to know who Mr. Crawford was.
