Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1477
Hearing that, the trio then agreed to head to Heartstone Manor together first.
Yul had come looking for Perla since the Sherwins had initially been quite a prestigious and influential family in
Jenna City. However, due to the Dun family’s schemes, the fall of the Sherwin family came shortly after. With that in
mind, though Perla had initially driven a luxury car worth at least seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, she now
only drove an ordinary BMW 7 Series.
Of course, Gerald didn’t mind that at all.
On their way there, Perla began telling Gerald about the Heartstone Manor. As it turned out, the manor had a
history of over a thousand years, and the earliest depictions of it stated that the manor had first been established
by a prince and nobleman from ancient times.
Later on, the manor was eventually contracted by the Waddys who acted as the manor’s developer. Following that,
they began conducting many large-scale tourism projects there.
Aside from that, the manor was also used as the venue of the underground festival.

flocking the area by the time the trio got there.
Eventually, Perla managed to park the car in the crowded parking lot. Just as the trio was about to head off, all
three of them suddenly heard a feminine voice sneering, “Who’s car is this? Who allowed you to park here?!”
Turning around, Gerald saw that a high-end Mercedes Benz had stopped right in front of Perla’s car, and several
men and women had just stepped out of it. The one who had yelled at them appeared to be a woman who also
seemed to be the leader of the group.
Before she could further ridicule the trio, however, both Perla and the woman suddenly froze in surprise.
After a brief moment, both of them called out each other’s names in near-unison.
“Perla?”
“Jenny?”
The second after she said that, Perla’s face instantly reddened in embarrassment as she stared at the woman who
looked to only be a few years older than her.
On the contrary, there was a smug look on Jenny’s face as she crossed her arms while sneering, “So it’s you, Perla!
Aren’t you a bit too free to be having fun here at Heartstone Manor? Don’t you have work to attend to or
something?”
“Who is she, Jenny?” asked one of the young men from Jenny’s group. All it took was a glance for Gerald to see that
all of them were wearing clothes befitting fashionable nobles. It was also evident that they all had contempt in their
eyes.
“You could call her my cousin, I guess… Her mother is my grandmother’s adopted daughter, you see, and she
eventually ended up getting married into the Sherwin family. I trust that all of you have already heard about what
happened to the Sherwins, correct? With that in mind, I really hadn’t expected her to still have the heart to come
play around at Heartstone Manor! A place where only the wealthy can afford to come to!” replied Jenny.
It was really no secret that cousin sisters sometimes enjoyed comparing themselves with each other. Jenny, for
one, had always been jealous of Perla. After all, she could never even come close to comparing with her in the past.
Now that tragedy had befallen the Sherwins, however, she finally had the opportunity to mock Perla to her heart’s
content!
“You…!” growled the enraged Perla. However, she knew that there was nothing else she could really say.

Nodding in response, Perla was just about to leave with the other two when Jenny suddenly shouted, “Stop right
there!”
“What is it now, Jenny…” asked Perla.
“What do you mean, what ‘what is it now’? Move your d*mned car out of the way! How dare you have the guts to
even park your cheap car in this expensive parking lot?!” retorted Jenny, feeling extremely frustrated.
“I know, right? To think that she even brought along that pathetic pauper!” chimed in another girl who had been
standing beside Jenny.
The second they heard the words, ‘pathetic pauper’, Gerald and Yul instantly turned back to look at the girl.
“…Huh? Pathetic pauper? Who do you mean, Poppy?” asked Jenny.
“That guy, of course! He’s from our university and he’s as poor as a church mouse!” declared Poppy as she pointed
at Yul.
Hearing that, Yul instantly blushed and lowered his head.
“You’re really frustrating me, you know that, Perla? How did you ever manage to end up in such a pathetic state? To
think that you’d actually bring two paupers along to have fun at such a high-end place! Couldn’t you have just
brought them to an amusement park or something? Hell, you could’ve just spent a little more money to bring them
to Disneyland to have a look around! With that said, there was absolutely no reason for you to bring both of them
here! I mean, just look at what both of them are wearing!”
