Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 560

This time, it was a call from Giya.

 

“It’s your birthday tomorrow right, Gerald?” asked Giya as soon as he picked up.

“Hmm…”

“Humph! Why didn’t you invite me over to celebrate with you then? I was waiting all day for you to call me today!

It’s already this late yet you still haven’t invited me… Could it be that you’ve already forgotten about me?”

“Not at all. It’s just that since I’m back in my hometown, I was just planning to have a simple birthday celebration!”

explained Gerald.

To be completely honest, Gerald really hadn’t planned to invite Giya at all.

Though she was very nice to him, Gerald simply wanted to be together with Mila now. He didn’t want to get too

close to other girls. Therefore, he summarized that continuing to have such a complicated relationship with Giya

just wouldn’t do.

What more, Giya had gotten into trouble when she was here with him the last time. Gerald felt embarrassed to

even invite her to come over again.

“Whether you’re inviting me or not, I’m coming over to your house to look for you tomorrow. Unless… you don’t

regard me as your friend at all…?”

Giya leaned her head against the bed’s headboard as she spoke through the landline. She was currently in a room

in a villa.

Over the line, Gerald could only agree helplessly as he nodded. Immediately after that, he came up with an excuse

saying that he was busy and ended the call.

“Humph! You b*stard! You’re really heartless toward me!” said Giya with a desolate expression on her face before

hanging up as well.

She had initially expected Gerald to take the initiative to invite her over to celebrate his birthday with him. On the

contrary, she now felt that if she hadn’t called him, he definitely wouldn’t have invited her over at all.

What more, since that major incident, whenever she tried looking for Gerald just to have a simple chat with him,

he’d always reply indifferently. At most, it was common for him to reply with just a few words.

This made Giya slightly uncomfortable. The more uncomfortable she felt, the more she couldn’t help but overthink

the matter.

At that moment, knocking could be heard on her bedroom door.

“Giya? Are you asleep? Your father and I have some things to discuss with you!” said Giya’s mother from behind the

door.

“Dad, mom, I’m not asleep yet! You can come in!”

Both her parents then entered her bedroom. Giya could see that her father had a very sad expression on his face.

“Giya, I know that you don’t want to hear this, but the Quarrington family in Yanken is giving us the orders this time.

They want you to get engaged with the third young master from the Long family in Yanken. There’s really nothing

else that we can do about the matter.”

“Mr. Crawford has already helped us settle our family’s economic problems last time. However, the Quarrington

family is still pressuring us even now. We really can’t do anything about it and we can’t always rely on Mr. Crawford

to help us. So tell us Giya, what do you think about a marriage contract with the Long family?” asked Giya’s father.

Giya’s mother sighed before saying, “Though we’ve already ended our relationship with the Quarrington family, the

influence and power they hold over us is simply too great. Please don’t blame your father, he’s done everything

he’s could. You have to consider how this is putting the company’s interests at stake here. In extension, it’s also

going to affect your uncles and all the other employees working for our family as well!”

“Is there really no other way? You know, we can still beg Gerald to help us! He’ll definitely help me!” replied Giya,

her eyes tearing up.

“Giya, though Mr. Crawford is very capable, the Mayberry Commercial Group is only influential in Mayberry City. The

Quarrington and Long family, on the other hand, have even bigger groups and corporations in Yanken!” said her

father with a sigh.

“What more, the third young master of the Long family may even come over to pay us a visit tomorrow. You’ll have

to stay home and prepare to meet up with him. If he leaves a really bad impression on you, we may still have some

time to think of a solution then!” added Giya’s father.

“No! I’m not free tomorrow! It’s Gerald’s birthday and I’m going to celebrate it with him!” replied Giya angrily.

“You are not to go anywhere tomorrow. You shouldn’t bother Mr. Crawford about our issues anymore. You’re just a

young girl who doesn’t understand anything at all!”

As soon as he finished his sentence, Giya’s father pulled her mother out of her bedroom immediately.

Giya was so anxious about the whole thing that she was ready to burst into tears.

Moving back to Gerald, he woke up at six in the morning the next day.

Gerald had a call with Zack last night. He wanted to welcome his 22nd birthday.

Since the guests could arrive early, Gerald decided to tidy up the place a little first.

At that moment, a girl suddenly entered through the front door.

“Gerald! I heard from my mother that you had come back, but I’ve tried looking for you a few times and you were

never home!”
