Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 83
“Gerald, here!”
By the time Gerald had reached the dormitory where Xavia lived, it was already crowded with both male and female students.
The police were there. Cassandra was also there, as was the representative of Yuri’s class.
It was hectic.
Among the crowd, Gerald saw Harper waving at him, so he walked toward him.
Then, he saw Xavia and Yuri.
They must have had a fierce fight judging from the slap mark on Xavia’s cheek and her messy hair. She was shouting and crying at the same time.
As for Yuri, he was being held by the police, handcuffed. His face was so pale, he had to be very scared.
One of the police was interviewing the class representatives.
“What happened?” Gerald asked.
“What happened!? Dmn! Gerald, you are curious about how Yuri became rich since that day, aren’t you? Guess what? He’s a fearless lad, I tell you. He first borrowed a hundred thousand dollars from an online loan company for seven days. After seven days, because of the high interest rates, he had to pay back five hundred thousand dollars! There must be a black box operation behind this. And then, it seems as though Yuri had put down the shares of his father’s company on mortgage! In short, it’s a big mess right now. Also, it was his father who reported it to the police!” Harper explained, and then he continued, “Now that Yuri was desperate, he asked Xavia to return the money he spent on her. I heard that he had spent almost a hundred thousand on Xavia. However, Xavia refused to give him the money, so he beat her up! Dmn! These loan sharks are ruthless. I read a news article about a person who needed to pay back a hundred thousand dollars for borrowing just ten thousand dollars. It was ten-fold as much, man! I thought it was fake news, but now, I believe it. It’s so scary!”
After Gerald heard the whole story, he looked at Xavia who was in tears.
As Yuri was escorted to the police car, he was still yelling at Xavia. “Let me tell you, btch! I didn’t even get to touch you after spending a hundred thousand dollars on you. Just you wait! If you don’t give me back the money, I will ask my men to kill you!” “Get in!” Before Yuri could finish his words, the police forced him into the car. “You jerk! Asking back money from me? Did I become your girlfriend for nothing?” Xavia stomped her feet angrily. “Serves you right, you liar!” Although Xavia was scolding him fiercely, she was scared. The Lowell family was powerful, more powerful than hers at the very least. Seeing Yuri leave with the police, Xavia’s heart was still beating fast. Suddenly, she saw Gerald among the crowd. Right then, she teared up. She rushed toward Gerald and gave him two loud slaps! “You bstard! You saw me getting beaten up by someone but you just stand here watching?! You should have beat him up!”
Xavia grabbed Gerald’s shirt and cried hysterically. In her mind, Gerald would do anything for her. Before they broke up, Gerald would carry her on his back to the infirmary when she had a mild cold. If she told him she was hungry, Gerald would sneak out from the dormitory to get her some food even if it was midnight. If she wanted a mobile phone, Gerald would get some part-time jobs to earn enough money to buy it for her.
So, when she was beaten, she thought that Gerald would get all worked up about it.
Instead, he had just stood there and watched! Xavia was so angry that she almost went crazy.
“Xavia, I am no longer your boyfriend!”
Gerald honestly wanted to slap her back, but he could not do it when he saw her face. The earlier marks were still there.
So, he just pushed her away.
He had once loved her sincerely after all.
“Yeah, you are not my boyfriend anymore. Don’t you want to reconcile with me?!” Xavia shouted in her crying voice.
She had regained her composure.
But now, Gerald seemed very foreign to her. Could it be that this poor hillbilly did not love her anymore?
How could it be?!
‘I am Xavia. Gerald should be the one who kneels before me.’
“I don’t want to. Not anymore!”
Gerald shook his head as he turned around and left. Truthfully, his heart ached.
“You jerk! If you don’t get back with me, how will I pay him back the money?! Had it not been for Yuri wanting to compete with you by showing off his money, would I have ended up like this?”
Xavia had become hysterical!
Gerald no longer loved her and she now owed the Lowell family one hundred thousand dollars. That family was not one she could mess with!
