Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 256 She could not help but feel that Gerald did not only look very refined but the more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was very handsome even though he was dressed so casually. He definitely looked much better compared to her boyfriend in every way!
“Um…”
Gerald could not take this enthusiasm anymore and left immediately.
As for whether he hated them or not, he did not feel anything whatsoever. After all, both he and Elena were just pretending anyway.
“Oh my God! Elena, you did not tell me that Gerald was Mr. Crawford! Your aunt nearly offended Mr. Crawford just like how your eldest aunt did!”
Ruby clapped her hands excitedly.
Harriet was obviously unhappy when she heard this. “I say, Ruby, you were the one who was speaking viciously in the first place, and you are clearly the one who had offended Mr. Crawford. So, how could you say that it is me? If you don’t believe me, you can ask my daughter. Was my tone impolite at all when I was speaking to Mr. Crawford earlier? Wasn’t it your second aunt who was sneering at him all along?” Harriet hurriedly asked her daughters.
Her daughters did not know what to say.
Fortunately, her son-in-law, Pierre, said, “I don’t think so! Hehehe! Besides, Mr. Crawford’s attitude was pretty good when he left just now. He certainly did not look like he was holding anything against us at
all!”
Harriet looked at Pierre in disgust as she said, “Don’t you know your own place? I was asking my daughter so why are you trying to speak up now? Do you think that you can show off just because you have some money? You are so vile! Why can’t you learn something from Gerald who is so mature and stable?”
Pierre’s face turned green immediately.
At this time, her second cousin’s boyfriend, Felix, suddenly laughed.
“You’re laughing? What are you laughing at? Do you think that you are that great? You are always pretending to be so mature and oppressive all the time. Do you have enough money to be so pretentious? A bunch of good-for-nothings who are not promising at all! I want both of you to stay away from my daughters in the future!” Harriet yelled.
After meeting Gerald, who was none other than Mr. Crawford today, Harriet finally realized that both of her future sons-in-law were so lowly. No, they were not only lowly, but they were not even fit to be human at all!
Ruby simply ignored her sister.
She simply turned around and held Elena’s hand as she said, “Elena, we really have to go around more in the future. Your aunt has never been to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment before. Since Gerald has already talked about it, why don’t you bring us there to look around?”
“Yes, Elena! Bring us there!”
“I am not in the mood. If you want to, you can go and have a look on your own!” Elena simply replied lightly.
Her voice was very cold.
She was not intentionally directing her anger at her aunts, however, Elena was in a state of confusion right now.
This was because Elena had been sitting with Gerald just now. Therefore, Elena had happened to see the contents of a text message that Gerald received on WeChat.
It was a text message sent by a girl named Mila, and she was asking Gerald to accompany her to have dinner.
After that, Gerald had lied to her and told her that he was actually at the university before he had left in a hurry.
Gerald did not even dare to tell the other girl that he was with another girl at this time.
Elena could tell that Gerald obviously cared a lot about this girl!
This made Elena feel as though she had received a direct blow to her heart.
To put it bluntly, what was the reason she had been asking for Gerald’s help the last three to four times?
Was it because she truly needed Gerald’s help?
Besides, couldn’t Elena get anyone else to pretend to be her boyfriend?
Why did she have to look for Gerald?
Wasn’t it just because she wanted to create more opportunities to spend more time with Gerald?
However, all that Gerald could think about was that girl named Mila! She could tell just by looking at the nervous expression on his face!
Thus, Elena’s mind was completely blank at this time, and she was not in the mood to do anything at all!
She simply wanted to be alone.
At this time, Gerald was already back at campus.
He headed straight toward the entrance of the cafeteria.
Upon arriving there, he hurriedly sent Mila a text message: [Why aren’t you at the cafeteria yet? I am still waiting for you at the entrance of the cafeteria!]
Gerald thought of the tricks that Naomi and Harper had taught him—to interweave the truth with some falsehood at the same time.
Mila replied apologetically: [Hehe! I will be right there! I am just done with the meeting for our broadcasting department!! Sorry for making you wait!]
‘This trick really worked!’ Gerald thought to himself.
“Hey! Did you hear that a girl almost committed suicide today?”
At this time, Gerald happened to hear the discussion that was going on between some of the girls who were walking past him at this time…
