The Invisible Rich Man's
Chapter 492
“Oh, you know, Gerald Crawford. Actually, now that I think about it, you should know him better than I do. After all, he was the one who pulled out ninety thousand dollars in cash and also my daughter's best friend! He treats her very well, you know?”
Everyone in the office knew each other very well, which was why Francesca spoke without the slightest hesitation.
"Wow! He must be your son-in-law!”
Everyone had a hint of envy in their voices.
"…What? What are you talking about? It was as if he could have that much power! You're kidding, right?" shouted Leia.
“Haha... Oh yes, yes, I must be kidding!” francesca replied sarcastically with a smile.
Francesca's words pierced Leia's heart like a spear. He was so angry that he could not even say anything at that moment.
How not? His competitors have won everything! He had even lost to the person he looked down on the most! The gerald!
As a mixture of anger, hatred, and jealousy filled his mind, he could not accept a complete defeat and began to cry!
…
Meanwhile, Gerald had just arrived at his hotel when he received a call from Zack.
"There are two things I want to tell you, Mr. Crawford!" said Zaki.
"Continue."
“Well, the first thing is about the jade pendant. Mr. Xiques has updated me on his findings. Although the final result would only be available in the next two days, his current prediction of where the jade came from was somewhere from the southwest! I've also asked some other masters just to double the confirmation with his assumption,” explained Zack.
“Southwest... All right, I get it. We will only wait for the final assessment before moving on. What other things do you mention?” ask Gerald. He was happy that there was progress on the jade pendant.
“About that.. Since the investment with Serene County and Mayberry development is a pretty big project, those from the top management are very concerned. They'll come to check later, so I've arranged a cocktail party tonight. It would be great if you could attend. That will show how much we care about top-level management as well!”
“There is Mr Harrison, Mayberry vice president and president, and Serene County management. All big names will be here!”
“Then, I better come early tonight!” said Gerald.
It was almost four o'clock and Gerald knew that he had to get ready immediately.
Suddenly, he remembered that he should have dinner with Xeno later.
Since he couldn't come now, he tried to call Xeno to tell her about the change of plans. But he didn't lift it.
Bizarrely.
Gerald then tried calling Sienna. It took him two tries before he finally lifted up.
However, he was able to immediately find out that something was terribly wrong as he answered his call.
It was very noisy on Xeno's side. He could hear someone cursing in the background and Xeno also cursed.
When Sienna finally spoke, her voice was extremely anxious.
“Gerald!”
“What's up, Siena? What's all that noise about? ”
Sienna stopped talking for a moment before continuing, “It's Xeno! Some people destroyed our shop! They were inside now and Xeno wanted to fight them! “
"What?!" Gerald immediately jumped off the sofa.
"Wait for me, I'll be here soon!"
