The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1413

Glaring back at her, he then headed off to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment. He really couldn't be bothered with such a woman.

Naturally, he wasn't going there to sleep or attend to accommodation matters. He was simply headed there since he knew the people there knew who he was. Following that, he could tell them to call Zack on his behalf. At the very least, he wanted Zack to know that he was here.

Thankfully, things went smoothly this time, and Zack-upon finding out that Gerald was the one on the other end of the line-instantly exclaimed in a voice brimming with respect, humility, and excitement, "You're fine, Mr. Crawford?! That's great news!"

"I am indeed. I'd like to hear your explanation regarding some matters, so I'll be waiting for your return," replied Gerald rather casually.

"Affirmative, Mr. Crawford! I'll be returning right this instant to personally report the matter to you!" said Zack without the slightest hesitation.

From what Zack had said, it seemed that Peter's deduction had been correct. That this matter wasn't accidental. Gerald could tell that Zack seemed to know something about all this...

Gerald couldn't really tell why, but he knew for a fact that Zack seemed to be in a hurry earlier. After all, his tone was rather flustered during the call. Whatever the case was, Gerald didn't need to question him too much at the moment. He could simply wait for Zack to return tomorrow to hear his explanation...

It wasn't long before the next day came, and having nothing to do while waiting for Zack, Gerald decided to take a stroll around the villa within Wayfair Mountain Entertainment.

While walking around, he started recalling the first time he had come to the villa. Back then, he had just found out that his true identity was Mr. Crawford not too long ago, and he had to admit that he had made quite a fool of himself at the time. Even so, as he continued reminiscing about the old days, he couldn't help but feel that those days were still pretty good.

Regardless, it wasn't long before Gerald began hearing quite a commotion while he was walking on.

"Are you blind or something?! Don't you know how expensive this dress is?!"

"I-I'm sorry! I didn't do it on purpose! Please, I'm sorry...!"

"The hell is even wrong with Wayfair Mountain Entertainment? Do they hire just about anyone in this place? Even if you're just a mere waitress, they could've at least hired someone who was capable of sight! How absolutely frustrating...! Regardless, what are you going to do about this?" growled the infuriated woman as she grabbed onto the waitress's collar with one hand while poking her forehead with the other. Looking at the spilled champagne on the ground, Gerald-who hadn't been able to get a proper look of the angered woman-guessed that the waitress must have bumped into the woman and spilled some champagne over her dress.

Even so, he didn't take the situation too seriously. After all, such conflicts were all too common in a place made for entertainment. Besides, Gerald trusted that the staff would be able to handle the situation well Upon walking past them, however, Gerald turned to look at the infuriated woman's face... And was instantly startled.

As was expected, the aggressive woman was none other than Westlyn, and the group of people backing her up was, of course, her friends from the day before. How truly coincidental!

However, he was even more startled by the fact that he recognized the waitress Westlyn was grabbing onto! It was his classmate, Layla Hack!

His eyelids now twitching slightly, he remembered how both of them had done volunteer work together since the duo were considerably poor students at the time. He also recalled that while her family's condition wasn't all that great, her personality was as tough as nails and she always got good grades. She used to have a pretty good relationship with him too...

To think that he would bump into here under such circumstances!

Continuing to stare at Layla for a while, he then began walking toward the group. From how immensely angry Gerald was, he deduced that this was probably Westlyn's first time wearing such beautiful clothes. With that in mind, it was no wonder why she felt like she had just been deeply humiliated.

Even so, she was starting to get a little too far. After all, while she had initially simply been grabbing onto Layla's collar, the rage-filled woman was now shaking her as well!

Gerald managed to pull Layla away from the maddened woman just in time for her to avoid getting a tight slap from her.

The second Westlyn saw that Gerald was present, she instantly shouted, "You again?!"

Turning to look at Westlyn, Gerald realized that though most of her friends were the same people from yesterday, there was a new bespectacled boy in the group.

With a hand in his pocket, the new face simply looked at the scene before him as he sneered.

"It's almost done! Have fun and don't cause any trouble!"
