Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 565
“Oh? Another classmate is celebrating their birthday today too?” asked Chase as he smiled with a slightly raised
brow.
“That’s right! Today is Kirk’s birthday as well! Going back to Xeno, when I told him about the celebration, Xeno told
me that he wasn’t free to attend today!”
Kirk was another of their junior high classmates. Though he was a pretty honest and straightforward person,
academic-wise, he was always at the bottom of the class.
His family owned a cement factory and since he realized he wasn’t cut out for studying, he immediately started
working for his family after graduating from junior high school.
Everyone was now looking at Kirk.
“Well d*mn! Why didn’t you tell us it was your birthday today too, Kirk? Well this is embarrassing! Hahaha!” said
Chase.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“So it’s your birthday today too! Everyone, let’s add Kirk on WeChat so that we can each give him a red envelope
for his birthday!”
Hearing the suggestion from one of their classmates, the crowd cheered in agreement.
Mr. Weiss simply smiled before saying, “Why don’t you young people give gifts as birthday presents anymore?
When I was your age, I had to prepare my own gifts to give to other people! Now that we have WeChat, things have
become much more convenient!”
“They really have, Mr. Weiss! We can just send red envelopes to settle everything! From birthdays, to wedding
celebrations!” replied the girls as they laughed.
“I’ve already added you on WeChat, Kirk! Remember to accept the red envelope!”
“Alright, alright! Thank you so much, everyone! I really hadn’t expected my birthday to be on the same day as
Chase’s!”
Seeing how well he was being treated by all his classmates, Kirk was feeling extremely flattered. He kept thanking
them over and over again.
“What a coincidence! While Kirk and Chase share the same birth date, someone else does as well! Have you all
already forgotten who else used to celebrate his birthday on the same day as Chase back in junior high?” said Lolita
hurriedly when she saw everyone sending money over to Kirk for his birthday.
“Who? Nobody really comes to mind!”
Several of the classmates seemed very puzzled.
“Humph! If you really can’t guess, it’s Gerald! His birthday is today too! He’s always celebrated his birthday on the
same day as Chase. Three of our classmates are celebrating their birthdays today!” said Lolita.
“Oh, so it’s Gerald!”
The classmates then nodded to acknowledge that they now knew. However, nobody said anything else.
“Speaking of which, Chase, I heard that there’s going to be some activities in Fuenti later in the afternoon. Let’s go
over there and have some fun! My dad said that it’s really lively over there!” said one of the girls cheerfully to
break the silence.
“Yeah, that’s what I heard too! Why don’t we all go there to enjoy ourselves later?”
Everyone there seemed to agree with the suggestion.
“I’m fine with that. How many cars do we have here? Oh, and Miss Yahn! You should come with us later in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmafternoon too! Now let’s see if we have enough space to carpool everyone to save on cab fares!” suggested Chase.
After he said that, a headcount was done and there were just enough cars to accommodate everyone.
However, upon doing a second headcount, they found that one extra person wouldn’t be able to join the carpool.
“Well this is awkward! There’s one person left and it really isn’t worth renting a cab just for a single person!” said
one of the girls.
One of the guys coughed before saying, “If that’s the case, then Gerald shouldn’t join us. He has his business to
attend to anyway, so if he comes along, we’ll only be stopping him from doing his work!” He then laughed.
“That’s right. I think Gerald shouldn’t come along either! Hahaha!”
“I won’t be going anyway. All of you go have your fun. Mr. Weiss, the only reason why I came here today was to
meet you. I was originally planning to invite you over to my own birthday banquet today, but it seems that that idea
would be inconvenient now. I’ll come meet you in the next two days. I’ll be taking my leave first to attend to some
things!” said Gerald as he explained his plans to Mr. Weiss.
“That’s fine then, Gerald. Go on now if you’re busy!” said Mr. Weiss who knew that everyone was ridiculing and
making fun of Gerald. He was aware that it would only continue to become more difficult for Gerald the longer he
stayed here.
