Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 452

Lilian looked at Gerald reproachfully, “You did a pretty good job but I don’t want you to be touching me. Do you

really think that I am your girlfriend?”

 

“Oh? So, now that Hayward’s gone, what should we do?” asked a perplexed Gerald.

“Hmph! Don’t worry. He will definitely come back for me… One, Two, Three…”

Lilian counted with her fingers when suddenly, Sharon’s voice suddenly came over her shoulder.

“Hayward, what are you doing?”

“Lilian, there are some things that I need to clear up with you. I don’t know what you think of me now, but I admit I

was wrong for not standing up for you when Sharon hit you yesterday. I’ve been regretting it a lot. I sincerely hope

that you’ll give me a chance. I wish to prove that I am way stronger and capable compared to a nouveau riche like

Gerald!” replied Hayward, his tone contrite, much humbler than he always sounded.

Obviously, his self-esteem seemed completely diminished, which was once held so highly by him.

Gerald couldn’t help feeling a deep sense of admiration toward Lilian as he watched the scene unfold from the

sidelines.

“But I already have Gerald, a guy who has a luxury car, and he’s about to buy me lots of branded cosmetics and

bags too! What about you? What can you offer me?” Lilian asked in response.

“Wow! So, you and Gerald are together simply because he’s wealthier than me, right?” Hayward asked in

disappointment and disbelief.

Gerald remembered how the conversation sounded eerily familiar. Wasn’t that what Xavia said at the small grove

the other day?

He completely understood what was going on; it wasn’t because Hayward really loved Lilian but rather, a question

of the very fabric of the dignity of a man.

It had always been the case, whether he liked it or not. Men like Hayward, with a wall of ego surrounding him, would

never be able to swallow the fact that the person who was once head-over-heels for him was now in love with

someone else.

He desired to conquer Lilian in her entirety to reclaim his dignity.

“Say whatever you like! Let’s go for a ride, Gerald.”

Lilian then grabbed Gerald’s arm before the two headed off to his car.

“Get out of my way! You’re standing in my way,” said Gerald as he patted Hayward gently on his chest before

walking towards the parking lot.

Unwilling to yield, Hayward chased after the two.

“Gerald, can I drive your car? I have never driven something this good before,” begged Lilian with a sparkle in her

eye.

“Yeah sure! Here, take the keys,” Gerald grinned as he tossed the car keys to Lilian.

“Lilian… don’t go! Please. Can you just listen to me? I was wrong. I was really wrong! Can you please just give me

another chance? I will cherish and treasure you more than Gerald ever would! From now, I will buy you whatever

you want as long as I can afford it! Allow me the chance to prove that I am definitely a hundred times more capable

than Gerald!” Hayward implored Lilian as he held her arm tightly.

“Is that so? But don’t you already have Sharon?” Lilian asked as she looked at Hayward with accusing eyes.

Hayward looked into Sharon’s eyes, lowering his tone by a notch. “I’m sorry, Sharon. I just discovered that Lilian is

the person I really love. Let’s end this.”

“Hayward? How could you?!”

In a dejecting mix of rage, anger, and confusion, Sharon instantly broke into a fit of tears, weeping and sobbing

uncontrollably.

A smile finally appeared on Lilian’s face. She felt that her pride had been rightfully restored and a sense of

satisfaction and contentment filled her heart.

As for Hayward, Lilian had taken advantage of his ego and pride, knowing how he would undoubtedly be stimulated

once he found out that she had gotten a far more capable boyfriend than him.

After all, no matter how beautiful a person turned out to be, her value would certainly depreciate if nobody pursued

her. Not to mention how countless gorgeous women were walking the earth.

That would all change the moment a capable man of robust standing was head over heels for you. It was then that

your value would skyrocket beyond the bounds of social strata.

Otherwise, even if a man finally managed to capture your heart, they wouldn’t cherish you anyway.

Through this, Lilian’s importance to Hayward had far surpassed that of Sharon.

After all, Murphy, Sharon’s ex-boyfriend’s capabilities were simply no threat to Hayward at all.

Hayward grabbed Lilian’s hand as he continued to speak to her.

Gerald felt strangely embarrassed, and since he just had a massive mug of coffee, he had to use the toilet urgently.

“This time, since I can tell you’re sincere, Hayward, I promise to be with you then.”

Lilian replied with a smile on her face when she saw that her goal had been achieved.

At that moment…

“Eh? What a coincidence, Miss Cole! You are here? I happened to be looking for you…” said a woman.

When Lilian caught a glimpse of the person walking towards her, her pupils instantly contracted…
