The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 413
“Hmph! Gerald, don't you know how to wait for us outside after you get the table?” When Tammy reaches him, Giya is by his side. The first thing that came out of his mouth was abuse.
Gerald put down his phone and smiled faintly. He was preoccupied with reading the investment reports coming from Zack Lyle.
Meanwhile, Sully and the others stared as if their eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. "What's? Whaaat! These are the friends Gerald was talking about?”
Cameron was still standing there, the phone in hand, his face now turning blue.
They ignored him, but, they were so friendly with Gerald? The explosion! It was indeed a vicious slap in the face!
"Huh? Gerald, happen to know the people at the table next door?”
Giya had been sitting next to him, and she was now wondering why everyone at the adjacent table seemed to be gawking strangely towards her.
“Hey, hey! Gerald, why don't you introduce your friends to us? When I went up to greet them, the women ignored me, you know? ”
Cameron, smiling stiffly, tried again.
He thinks Gerald may not move to accept the girls, hoping Cameron gets the humiliation there.
He continued in an exasperated tone, “How are you, ladies? We went to the same high school as Gerald! How lucky we are to meet such beautiful girls today... Really, this is not true for you, Gerald—the women are already sitting down, so why don't you order something to eat? How can you bear to see this beautiful woman starving? ”
Desperate to save his dignity, Cameron now drifts beside Gerald's desk, trying to assert himself as someone useful, hoping to attract the girls' attention.
“Indeed, they are my former classmates from High School. How small is the world we live in!” Gerald reluctantly admitted.
Giya laughed cheerfully.
"That's cool! You must introduce these old friends of yours to me! Besides, as your girlfriend, I couldn't possibly not know who your friend is.”
To him, it was simple: gerald's friend was his friend and although they were just disguised as a couple, it became more real to him at all times.
However, the last thing he said left everyone at the next table completely confused.
Whahuh? Really true? The epitome of this beauty is Gerald's girlfriend? To serious?
The flames of jealousy raged in the eyes of others.
Who's Gerald again? Some losers who can't even rub two cents together.
Not all of them even find their own girlfriends, but here is Gerald, a supermodel by his side. Who wouldn't be jealous? Without hesitation, Cameron turned greenish green with swathes of jealousy pouring out from his chest.
“So you're Gerald's girlfriend, so! How are you doing? I'm Cameron. My parents are in the Health Bureau. I do the hospital work. Ahahaha!” As he made clear his superiority, Cameron reached out to shake hands with Giya.
With a flick of his wrist, a watch with a price tag of over a thousand dollars slid into view.
Giya considers this fool before her, one who feels an inexplicable need to introduce not only herself but also her parents. What a weird way to go about things.
He decided not to take the hand he offered her.
Wanting not to embarrass Cameron too much, Gerald shook his hand instead, at least so he wouldn't be left hanging there.
"Ha huh! Who would have thought: Gerald Crawford, the famous bum of our year, in high school. "Who could have imagined that he might have captured such an exciting girlfriend beauty?"
As he said this, he looked at one of the other people on his desk meaningfully.
The minion that was shown slapped the table hard! "Fuckin' thick! Gerald," he shouted. “I can't believe your luck! Do you all still remember that one time when Gerald could barely pay his own tuition fees because he was just short of six dollars or something? Great Scott, our teacher chased him out of the classroom! Ha ha! And guess what — I think it was a heavy rain day!”
"Of course I remember," Sully sneered. “Gerald trudged through the rain looking for trash to sell and somehow managed to collect those last six dollars, just so he could stay in school. Ha ha! No one in the class cared to raise a hand to help him! She must have come a long way, hosted her own table at Mead Hall with the doll by her side.
There's a strange parade of veiled clues being circulated around here. They dig up all sorts of shit from Gerald's past, all to be stripped naked in front of Giya and her friends.
Predictably, Tammy's cousin and some of her friends had already peeked at Gerald's astonishment. So far, he sounds like a regretful loser.
"Alright, Gerald!" one of them shouted. "To commemorate your girlfriend's first visit to Serene County, you can't start lower than sixty dollars each, right?"
Cameron frowned.
“What empty moon are you spraying there? Just sixty dollars?! This pair of goddesses was much more precious than that! Gerald, if you don't get the best quality straight away with a hundred dollars per person, you don't deserve the company of these women! Ha ha! But don't worry, Gerald—if you are short of money, I'll pay you. In any case, it is important to keep up the appearance!”
Shortly after, the waiter came to take their order.
