Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 22
It was over. The oil painting was completely ruined.
One hundred and fifty thousand dollars!
Everyone could not help but swallow their saliva at this time.
Only Quinton and Harold were laughing in their hearts at this time. They could not help but wonder how Gerald would ever be able to pay for the oil painting that was worth a hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Even if the manager of Wayfair Mountain Entertainment owed him a favor, he would never be able to explain himself with regards to the oil painting.
Hehehe!
“Gerald, why don’t we leave now? Anyway, we’re almost done with the food,” Naomi said in a cautious manner at this time.
If they continued staying here for another second, Gerald would never be able to pay for the oil painting!
“Oh! Things don’t look good. It seems as though someone is coming up now!”
Jacelyn pointed at the staircase at this time and Gerald also looked in the same direction. At this time, Zack was walking towards them with a few waitresses and a bottle of good wine in their hands.
He was coming to give them a toast.
Gerald felt very helpless. He had already told Zack that he did not want to reveal his identity for the time being. Why was he still coming here to give him a toast?
Zack arrived a short while later.
Quinton also naturally knew who Zack was.
“Lyle…Mr. Lyle!”
Quinton quickly greeted him.
Unexpectedly, the manager whom Gerald was talking about was in fact one of the richest men in Mayberry City, Zack Lyle!
Alice was very surprised at this time and she did not dare to speak at all.
Good luck to Gerald!
As soon as he arrived, Zack nodded slightly towards the crowd of people.
After that, he looked at Gerald before he greeted him respectfully, “Mr. Ger…”
As he was about to greet him, Zack suddenly recalled that Gerald had already told him that he did not want his identity to be revealed.
Zack said: “Brother Gerald, are you satisfied with the arrangements I’ve made for you today?”
Gerald smiled as he nodded.
At this time, Quinton suddenly spoke up and said, “But Mr. Lyle, Gerald just ruined your oil painting by dropping it into the water!”
“Yes, Mr. Lyle! Even though we told him not to do it, Gerald took the oil painting down and he dropped it into the water!” Jacelyn quickly hurriedly chimed in as she did not want to bear the responsibility for the oil painting.
Meanwhile, Naomi quickly spoke up for Gerald. “Mr. Lyle, Gerald didn’t mean to do it!”
At this time, Harper also defended Gerald and he asked Zack what they could do in order to repay Zack for the oil painting.
Zack immediately understood the situation that was unfolding before him.
It seemed as though not everyone here were Gerald’s true friends and Zack knew that Gerald had not revealed his identity to anyone yet.
He also knew that Gerald was a very low-key and introverted person. It seemed as though he did not want to brag about the fact that he was actually very wealthy and powerful.
