The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 454
Hayward taunts Gerald before driving Sharon away with him happily.
Lilian crouched down and started sobbing.
"Oh! Mr Crawford! Why are you here?”
A voice suddenly spoke.
A middle-aged man wearing a suit and leather shoes ran towards Gerald.
"You are?"
Gerald thought she looked very familiar, but could not name her.
“Well, Mr. Crawford, it's only natural that you don't know who I am. But I know who you are. I was also there at your last reception meeting in Serene County. I'm watching how you live the day gracefully. My name is Blake Wadford. Mr. Lyle just recruited me into the group as an event planning manager. Are you also here to attend Miss Larson's birthday banquet?”
The man smiled and rubbed his hands nervously.
Lilian's sobs stopped, as she stared at the man blankly.
Even Hayward and Sharon who were about to enter the hotel were confused by the statement they heard.
"Oh! Hello, Mr. Wadford. So you're also planning Miss Larson's birthday banquet?”
Gerald couldn't seem to understand it. Which Miss Larson is she talking about? Why would someone from his own group plan his birthday banquet?
“Ehem. Sure was! It's Miss Elena Larson's birthday today. Since we are all members of the same group, it goes without saying that I should help in setting the banquet. Many Mayberry Commercial Street owners will be here as well today. By the way, they will all move to Yorknorth Mountain Commercial Street in the second half of the year together, so this also feels like a.” meeting
Blake explained.
"Oh so!"
Gerald felt a tremor of unease creeping.
Elena was also friends with him. So why wasn't he invited?
"Trs. Wadford, you know Gerald?”
Lilian asked, her eyes widened with curiosity.
He was observing Hayward's facial expression right now.
Lilian felt as if this was a good opportunity to return.
Could this be the man that his friend Quilla had arranged to come and save?
The more he thought about it, the more Lilian was convinced that this was all engineered by Quilla.
“Of course, I know Mr. Crawford's. Even if I don't know him, his car is definitely recognizable.”
Mr. Wadford replied, pointing at the Mercedes Benz G500.
Perfect!
Lilian was convinced that her best friend had made a move.
She had absolutely no idea how Quilla managed to find someone like her, but it felt so much fun.
Since Hayward and Sharon insulted Gerald earlier, it would be difficult for Lilian to explain herself if she just left.
Plus, Gerald wouldn't be happy either.
Since he was already here, right at the time of Elena's birthday, he thought he would stop by inside to take a look. This would also be a slap in Hayward's face and possibly stop him from acting pretentious.
Gerald turned to Blake and said, "Master. Wadford, why don't you give me two tickets? I didn't bring it today.”
"Oh? Okay fine! Of course, Mr. Crawford.”
Blake nodded.
Lilian looked at Gerald, as if she was trying to remind him not to overdo it. This is Miss Larson's birthday party. How could this man give them an entrance ticket if he was only here to act?
But to Lilian's surprise, Blake takes out a ticket for Gerald.
Hayward and Sharon were also dumbfounded.
Gerald was unaware of his surroundings. He simply pulled Lilian into his arms as he said, “Come, let's go. Let me take you to the banquet today!”
Lilian was surprised and confused when Gerald suddenly pulled her into his arms, but regained consciousness and gently held her waist.
The two of them walked into the hotel, under Hayward's envious gaze.
'Shit! How thick can Gerald be?'
Hayward thought with envy.
He then followed behind the couple and entered as well …
