Semua Bab The Secretly Rich Man: Bab 1221 - Bab 1230

“Now Aiden, you know me well enough to know that I’m not the kind of person who enjoys chasing after girls in the first place! I’m only doing what I did since I need that girl to help me with something!” replied Gerald as he shook his head, a wry smile on his face. Gerald chose not to go into detail—about the fact that he needed invigorating blood from a female with a strong yin physique—since he didn’t want Aiden to worry about him. Since both Aiden and Yoel had already helped him a lot in the past, now that they could finally afford to have a stable life, Gerald didn’t want to drag them into his own problematic situations again. Explaining things in only the most general sense was an active choice on Gerald’s part. “Hahaha! I see, I see… Well if that’s the case, consider yourself lucky to have bumped into me! After all, if you didn’t already know, I’m an expert at pursuing girls!” said Aiden with a laugh. “As I’ve said, I’m not trying to pursue her… I’m simply trying to get h

“That’s right!” replied Aiden rather proudly. Since the Gerald he once knew barely had any fighting capabilities, Aiden had definitely been caught by surprise by how capable and impressive Gerald now was. Regardless, after witnessing Gerald’s true strength with his very own eyes, Aiden was certain that with Gerald’s help, they would surely be able to capture the rapist easily. If Aiden was going to be completely honest, even the most legendary of fighters in the military district weren’t worthy enough to be Gerald’s opponents at all. “…So it really is him…?” said Maia as both she and Warren took turns shaking their heads, wry smiles on their faces. “Is team Aiden really pulling our leg now? While it’s true that Gerald has a prominent background and he was quite a formidable figure in Mayberry City back then, I hope you realize that we’re currently dealing with the very cunning and capable Maverick! As a rich heir yourself, I’m sure you’ve had a good history with Gerald, but are

Without witnessing it for themselves, nobody would’ve believed that all of this had truly taken place. After all, no normal person would be able to possess the immense strength to just rip a car door open with such ease while being on an actual moving car driving at such high speeds! While it was theoretically possible for someone with immense skill, strength, and balance to do so… It was simply too absurd to even think of such a person existing! Maia herself would’ve never imagined that her high school classmate—who used to be so thin and frail and was constantly worrying about how he could make more money to properly feed himself every day—could actually end up being so powerful today! Though she had already accepted that he was a rich young master for quite some time, as it turned out, he was also an extremely skillful person whose power was equivalent to a god-like top master! Warren was also in a state of utter shock at that moment. After all, he had been sitting beside Ma

Gerald truly hadn’t expected that Noelle would behave word for word like how Aiden had predicted. After all, Aiden had told Gerald that goddesses like her enjoyed playing games of cat and mouse. In other words, they really enjoyed the process of being pursued. They particularly liked it when the ones they were after truly seemed to care for them. With that in mind, according to Aiden’s guess, even if Gerald truly had saved Noelle’s life today, she still wouldn’t take the initiative to hand him her contact number. The most she would do was chat briefly with him before turning to leave. Of course, she wouldn’t actually leave right off the bat. Instead, she would wait around a little to wait for Gerald to ask her to stay instead. This was the reason why it was oftentimes so difficult to pursue most goddesses. After all, what such girls truly enjoyed was the process of being pursued and sought after. Regardless, each and every one of Noelle’s actions were nearly identical to what A

Soon after, the very next day came. Despite facing a financial crisis, Noelle’s family still placed great importance in the preparation process for Noelle’s twentieth birthday. After all, Noelle being able to celebrate her birthday happily was the most important thing to her family. It explained how what was initially a tiny birthday banquet ended up becoming more of a large family gathering instead. The venue of the celebration itself was a large private room—that could accommodate up to thirty people—in Longthorne International Hotel that Noelle’s parents had booked for the day. Among the thirty people invited to the banquet were Noelle’s family members, her classmates, her cousins, and several other relatives including her eldest, and third uncle. They were adamant on making this birthday banquet as festive as possible in order to rid their family of their bad luck. “Sister-in-law and Second brother! Both of you are truly blessed to have such a beautiful daughter as Noel
