Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 489
Jaxon’s respectful attitude toward Gerald surprised everyone.
This was especially so for Xella, who was now looking at Gerald with a completely different expression on her face.
She had used to think that Gerald only had personal connections with average statused people. To think that he
knew such a powerful and reputable individual as Jaxon!
What more, Jaxon had even taught the people who were planning to beat Gerald up a lesson. He didn’t give them
any face at all!
“What a great coincidence! If it weren’t for you, I would already have been beaten up!” said Gerald with a wry smile
on his face.
He had seen through Waylon’s act. If his guess was correct, then everything that had happened was orchestrated
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtby Waylon. That was probably also the reason why both Waylon and Milo were laughing between themselves
earlier.
Jaxon simply bowed slightly at Gerald’s comment.
What an awkward meal today… Gerald himself already felt full.
As for Francesca, after seeing Waylon getting beaten like that, she didn’t have the mood to continue eating
anymore. With that, she decided to settle the bill first.
“Ah, Mr. Sanders, are you acquainted with Gerald? I’m the deputy director of X Bank. You seem like quite the
capable man! Please don’t hesitate to contact me if any of your groups wish to use our bank for your funding and
capital flow!”
Francesca wasn’t going to let the chance to befriend Jaxon slip away that easily.
After all, she knew that Jaxon had the capability to make smaller subordinate companies use X Bank for their cash
flow.
Instead of discussing the matter with Francesca, he simply looked at Gerald to see his response.
Gerald simply nodded.
If Francesca hadn’t invited him to join them for lunch today, she may have been able to get through with her
business negotiations with ease. Since her initial plan was disrupted because of him, Gerald thought that it would
only be fair for him to help her out this time. This was the only reason why he agreed to it.
At that moment, they could hear Waylon and the group of people fighting again inside the room.
It was clear, however, that the people were beating Waylon up this time.
Though Warrick had planned to use Waylon to befriend Jaxon, he ended up unexpectedly offending him instead!
How could Warrick not be angry?
Waylon was now the group’s punching bag to release all their anger and frustration.
Gerald only sneered when he heard Waylon’s screams. In fact, he felt that they weren’t beating him hard enough.
Xella continued looking at Gerald, a complicated expression on her face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she saw that Gerald was only talking to Cindy and wasn’t paying her any attention, deep in her heart, Xella
couldn’t help but feel slightly uncomfortable
And just like that, the meal was over.
Gerald went back to his hotel with Jaxon as the driver.
“Cindy, I can finally see why your grandfather told me that this young man’s identity wasn’t all that simple!” said
Francesca after a while as she sighed.
While they were having dinner together last night, Cindy’s grandfather had emphasized that Gerald wasn’t as
simple as he looked. She hadn’t thought much about it back then, but she could now see what he meant.
“I hadn’t expected him to be so powerful and well connected either! Actually, now that I think about it, mom! I
finally understand what happened back when I was at the karaoke bar last time!” replied Cindy as she smacked her
forehead with her palm.
Xella herself remained silent. She was waiting for the people inside to finish fighting before fishing Waylon out. She
didn’t dare to go in at the moment, nor did she dare to stay alone. She was terrified that Warrick and his men
would also take their revenge on her.
Earlier, she had followed Gerald out quietly when she saw him leaving.
However, Gerald paid her no notice and simply left without saying another word.
