Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 199
At present, Mila and Gerard were in a relationship one level beyond friendship. However, Gerard had yet to pursue her in earnest—all they really did, for the most part, was chat.

Mila kept joking about how Gerard was her pretend-boyfriend, giving him the impression that she had never thought about going any further with him.

And yet, she was always throwing these little tantrums.

Basically, their relationship status was unclear.

Mila’s latest message to him: “I’m asking you a question. Why aren’t you replying? Have you been chatting with another girl these days?”

Girls are sensitive creatures, able to detect the slightest change in the wind.

Recently, Gerard’s behavior had become highly suspicious. Back then, he would always reply to her instantly. Nowadays, a full minute could pass without any answer.

It was a disconcerting situation for Mila.

Gerard didn’t want to lie to her. Anyway, there was no point.

“Yup. Just chatting.” That was his reply.

“Heh. You didn’t have to add that last bit. Even if you weren’t just chatting, it’s not like I’d know. You’re an amazing guy. I already expected lots of pretty girls to be after you. The one you’re talking to must be quite the looker. What’s her name? Do I know her?” A whole barrage of text tumbled out from Mila.

“I doubt it. Myself, I’ve only known her for a week. As for her looks… perhaps it’s her heart that’s beautiful.”

All this while, Mila had been playing all sorts of games with Gerard.

It made him feel like she didn’t see him romantically in the slightest.

She only saw him as a friend, even knowing that he was positively loaded!

Gerard, in turn, had no ulterior designs for Queta. She was just a friend he got along with easily. More than that… he hadn’t given the matter much thought.

“Oho! An angel with a beautiful heart? That’s really something! So the great Mr. Crawford has been ignoring his girlfriend because he’s already found another one!”
