The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 490
After Gerald left, Xella re-entered the building quietly and stood near Francesca and her daughter.
She had been listening to the conversation of the mother and child ever since they started talking again.
“What happens in karaoke bars?” xella asked nervously before Francesca could even answer.
"Oh! Look, we went to a karaoke bar a while ago for fun. A friend of ours provoked some people there and it led to a clash with Louie of the Lourdes Mining Group in Serene County! Back then, even Douglas was scared to death even though he was a capable person! After all, it was Louie that we had provoked. Louie even ordered all the girls to stay at the bar and have a drink with her!”
"What's? Cindy! Why wasn't I told about this before? ”
All Francesca knew was that Gerald had invited his daughter to enjoy a meal with him. He just found out about the whole conflict today.
“Well, I'm afraid you'll be worried! I'll explain everything now. At that time, I cried with Leila because we were so scared. Douglas and the others also escaped! But guess what happens next!”
"Continue," replied Francesca anxiously.
“In the end, it was Gerald who helped us get everything done! He's the one who made Louie let all the girls go! If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't even want to start imagining what could have happened to us that night!”
As Cindy continues to explain, she notices how dear she is whenever she talks about him. He realized at the time, that he now had growing feelings for Gerald.
"And? What happened after that? You all just left Gerald alone with Louie? Would someone like Louie just let Gerald go?”
It was Xella's turn to ask.
“Yes, here's the problem. That's when things start to get even stranger! I was worried about Gerald so I told everyone to go back to the karaoke bar. By the time we arrived, the building was surrounded by dozens of Maybach cars! As we entered, Louie and her friends were beaten up by some men dressed in black!”
“Although it was a pretty good spectacle, my main goal back then was to help Gerald out. I was so worried at the time. However, it turns out that Gerald is not only fine, he is also enjoying an expensive French meal for his dinner at the restaurant next to the karaoke bar! When he saw us, he invited us to dinner with him too! When I asked Gerald about the specifics of what happened at the karaoke bar, he still answered ambiguously. After tonight's incident, I think I finally understood what happened just then a little better ... "
Francesca took a deep breath before exhaling it.
“...In that case, it was most likely that Gerald was the one who called a group of people to beat up Louie and her friends. He won't just help you solve this problem without a backup plan. Moreover, he even calmly enjoyed a good meal back then!”
"That's what I think too!" Cindy replied while nodding excitedly.
“...You know, some time ago I had a class reunion with Gerald and one of my friends, Cameron, said that Gerald seemed to have a good relationship with Louie! He even said that Gerald had kicked Louie's ass but Louie's only response at the time was to smile without saying a word! This could mean that Gerald had already defeated him once before. Why else would he be so polite to Gerald?” xella explained in detail.
Hearing her side of the story, neither Francesca nor Cindy could resist the feeling that Gerald's true identity was becoming more and more mysterious.
“I think... I think I understand! Cindy! If we are truly lucky, Gerald can become the young master himself! Mr Crawford from Mayberry City!” francesca said loudly.
“A-what?”
Hearing those words made Xella tremble in fear. He was so trembling that his handbag even fell to the floor.
He felt as if he had just been stabbed in the heart.
"Mama! That... is impossible, right?”
Cindy could feel her chest tighten as she thought of the idea.
“Pfft! I just pulled your leg! On a more serious note, this Gerald is definitely an exceptional individual. Even Jaxon gave her so much face. Cindy, she's always been nice and kind to you, right? Try to get as close to her as possible in the near future. From what we know, both his classmates and even Jung's family hate him. You are one of the few people in Serene County who treated her well, so you better take advantage of this opportunity!” francesca said gladly.
Xella was sad to hear his words.
If nothing else happens, he'll be Gerald's best friend in Serene County!
Not long ago, Gerald still loved her. Instead, he was now extremely cold and indifferent towards her!
At that moment, Xella realized that she felt like she was missing something…
Moments after noon when Francesca returned to the bank to work. He had a bright smile on his face.
“Vice Director Francesca, why are you so happy? Could you have met a noble person to complete your order for you?
Seeing Francesca's happy face, Leia could not help but feel a bit bitter.
