Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 598
It was clear that they enjoyed watching the misfortune of others.
Tina herself was thinking that both parties involved weren’t nice men. She didn’t need to directly involve herself
with them since they were just fighting among their own kind. However, she was ready to call the police if things
got too messy.
At that moment, a loud crash was heard. Gerald had apparently knocked down a vase.
The shrill sound of shattering glass further attracted the attention of everyone in the bar.
“Good sirs, you’ve clearly done it now! Not only did you refuse to order anything, you even smashed one of the
vases here!” sneered the woman as she crossed her arms. She knew that the trio before her didn’t mean well.
“F*cking hell! It’s just a vase! We’ll just compensate for it!” shouted Yoel in return.
“I’m glad you’re willing to do so! But I first need to ask my boss regarding the exact price you’ll have to

had already started walking toward the group.
“What’s the meaning of all this?”
“Boss! These three refused to order anything and they even broke one of our vases! They’re definitely here to
create trouble! They have agreed on compensating for the vase, though,” explained the woman.
As he took a cigarette out, Hugh simply sneered before saying, “It’s good that you’re at least willing to compensate!
Acting all bold and audacious before me, how dare you even offend me! However, I’m a nice person, so you’ll only
need to give me five hundred thousand dollars!”
He then puffed his cigarette as he continued glaring at Gerald’s group.
Everyone’s eyes were glued on the scene happening before them now. After all, who wouldn’t want to watch others
get hit by misfortune? Even the DJ had turned off the stereo system.
At that moment, a few men who had their hair dyed in multiple different colors began surrounding Gerald’s group.
They seemed to be people who frequented the bar to have fun.
“What’s wrong, Hugh?” asked one of the men.
“Oh, it’s nothing much. He just broke a vase so I told him to compensate for it,” replied Hugh with a smile.
“See these people? If you fail to pay up the five hundred thousand dollars, I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave this
place tonight!”
After Hugh said that, the ruffians started cracking their necks intimidatingly. They seemed to be ready to attack at
any moment.
However, Gerald only smiled faintly before saying, “Hugh, Hugh, Hugh… I really didn’t expect you to still be this
reckless and arrogant. Five hundred thousand dollars for a mere vase? You dare say that to my face? Do you even
remember who I am?”
“Huh? Have we met before?” asked Hugh, slightly stunned by Gerald’s retort.
Squinting his eyes slightly, Hugh finally realized who Gerald was.
“So that’s why you looked so familiar! You’re the boyfriend of that Yorkes lady! Fck! And here I was thinking who you
were! You audacious, bstard! Didn’t I teach you a lesson before? It seems like I wasn’t harsh enough!”

resolved. If you aren’t, then you’d better start thinking about the consequences!”
As Gerald gave a subtle smile, Aiden stood up and said, “I’ll go get the money then! Wait for my return!”
“Boss, he could be trying to call someone over!” said one of Hugh’s subordinates.
“Leave him be. I want to see who he’ll even be able to call over!” replied Hugh as he smiled contemptuously.
“Hot d*mn! What a great mess this has become! That guy actually dared to challenge Hugh! Doesn’t he know that
Tiago owns Hugh’s bar too? Do these guys even want to continue staying in Mayberry?” asked a few of the guys
sitting at Tina’s booth excitedly.
“Say Tina, didn’t you say that he’s your colleague’s ex-classmate? Don’t you want to help him out?” asked a girl
from the same booth.
“Humph! And why should I? He’s already so weak but he doesn’t even have any self-awareness! Hugh may be bad
news, but Gerald should already know that he can’t afford to offend people like him!” said Tina as she crossed her
arms again.
A short while later, someone in the bar suddenly shouted, “Hey, look! Isn’t that Tiago? Tiago’s here!”
