The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 342
“Haha! It's okay, forget it. That's not a big deal!”
Gerald won't leave.
“No, no Gerald, I insist! You're not looking down on us, are you? You would never look down on your own High School classmates, would you? Or do you secretly look down on us because you were accepted to Mayberry University while we only took normal entrance exams for normal universities and colleges? I see how it is now!” liana said without embarrassment.
“You know I didn't mean that! All right, let's eat together!” Gerald said before sighing. How could there be such a shameless person?
Gerald was at a loss for words.
However, since it was just eating, he was willing to eat together and finished. After all, he has nothing to lose. Moreover, this was the perfect time for him to prevent them from talking more about him in the future.
He would just join them to eat and see what they said back then!
Gerald nodded to himself before turning around again.
They don't eat at any of the stores on Mayberry Commercial Street. Instead, they went to an ordinary restaurant right next to that street.
Sharon had ordered many delicious dishes for Gerald.
"So tell us, Gerald, how did you get so rich?"
The topic was finally brought up by Lilian. Sharon was also listening carefully. That was the height of their concern.
"Rich? When did I ever become rich? I don't have any money!”
Gerald held back his laughter as he enjoyed the expressions on their faces. They are both funny and silly at the same time. He's no longer angry. Instead, he felt happy at the moment, so he simply replied innocently and casually.
He then took some roasted pork and rice before enjoying it.
“Pft! You're really naughty aren't you, Gerald? You've become quite good at acting, I understand! ” said Lilian while laughing.
He had studied art before this and that included a bit of theater. He's less stiff than the other two for sure.
As he spoke, he also slightly pinched Gerald's thigh.
“I... I really don't have any money!” gerald said again.
“Hmm... If you don't have money, how can you get seven to nine thousand dollars just to buy a phone? Moreover, how could you buy two jade bracelets today without having any money? A dragon jade bracelet alone costs around thirty-two thousand dollars! You didn't cheat anyone, Gerald. ”
Gerald groaned slightly as Lilian continued to question him.
Sharon just kept staring at Gerald, her eyes wide open.
“Ah, the? The money is not mine! I just run some errands for some people! I will send the bracelet to the buyer soon after this! ”
By deceiving them, the best outcome he could foresee was that they would continue to treat each other as strangers in the future.
“Ahh. So the money really isn't yours?”
Lilian and Sharon exchanged looks. They both felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders.
“Say, Sharon, can you give the pig trotter to me? I can't get it from here!” gerald said to see their reaction.
“Damn it! Why are you still eating pork trotters now? Are you a pig? You've eaten so much! Just look at how unpromising you look!” sharon said coldly while glaring at Gerald.
Shit... I really thought you were rich for a moment there. That is the only reason why you were invited from the beginning.I guess in the end you just became a errand boy for someone else!
While it was a thought in Sharon's head, Lilian slowly began to move away from Gerald.
As soon as he sat far enough away, he said coldly, “Oh, Gerald Crawford. I used to think that even if you were poor, you would at least be useful in the future because you remain good at learning. However, now that I see you, I feel that you will only become more useless in the future!
Apparently he'll be called by his full name now.
“Don't you guys say that we should support and help each other because we're all in Mayberry City? Since you guys are clearly better than me, can you help me as well? After all, we've been classmates for three years in high school!” ask Gerald.
"Yes God! As if we could help you! What can you do? You don't have to talk about our high school days anymore. I haven't even talked to you in a long time! Why not keep chatting with Sharon? Aren't you two almost a couple back then? Sharon must still like you!”
Lilian said this intentionally for Hayward to hear.
Sharon immediately caught what she was trying to do. “What do you mean by Lilian? How could I like Gerald! I never liked it!”
As Sharon ended her sentence, she slammed her chopsticks against the table angrily.
The two then began to argue.
Hayward could only try to persuade them to stop fighting each other.
Ah, being rich and handsome like him, is a sin.
Gerald did not notice them and simply continued eating while enjoying the lively atmosphere.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open rather loudly.
A few police officers suddenly entered.
"Is that them?" asked a policeman coldly while pointing towards Gerald and the others.
