The Secretly Rich Man novel Chapter 196


Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 196
“Ahaha, don’t say that! He goes to Mayberry University, you know—after he graduates, he might very well find himself a job along Mayberry Commercial Street, too!”

Everyone wanted to get in on the merriment.

“Oho? Then we’d basically be colleagues! Let’s get along, Gerald!” Murphy chortled.

He wanted to keep this conversation going. He would often have to hear about everyone bringing up this old friend of Sharon’s.

It had made him curious about what she’d seen in a penniless guy like Gerald.

Sometimes it even made things awkward for him.

That was why, the moment this guy was introduced to him as Gerald, Murphy couldn’t resist having a bit of fun at his expense, just to see how he’d respond.

So far, it appeared that this Gerald had no social skills to speak of whatsoever. Once he started working life, it would be a carnival with him!

“Haha… Leave him alone, Murphy! For a guy like him to get a job in Mayberry Street, the boss would have to be deaf and blind!”

“Oh, yeah—Murphy, you never told us how you scored that Sales Manager job over there!”

The focus had been returned to Murphy, anyway.

“Oh, that’s a long story—but I suppose it could be because this is my field of specialty. But my boss thinks I’m still kinda green, so my salary’s only 45k per year for now. Ahh, I still have such a long way to go!”

“Whoa! That’s amazing, man!”

A fresh graduate commanding that level of pay was a rare thing. What’s more, he could still climb further up the coveted Mayberry corporate ladder.

Lilian was green with envy toward Sharon now. She was her equal in terms of looks—but Lilian was more carefree, while Sharon was more reserved. The latter approach apparently made a woman more desirable.
