The Secretly Rich Man의 모든 챕터: 챕터 581 - 챕터 590

Though Gerald was aware that the incident had a huge impact on Xavia, he never once thought that it would almost end her life. “That was the worst and darkest day in my sister’s entire life. And it’s all because of you, the infamous peasant! You’re well aware, I’m sure, that everyone looked down on you and nobody would even talk to you back then. Nobody except for my sister. She would hold your hand in school, go shopping together, and even dine out with you! But did you ever consider that doing all that with you would affect how everyone looked at her?” “Hey, hey! Everyone, look! It’s Xavia Yorke! The girlfriend of our school’s biggest peasant!” “That was what everyone was calling her back then. Despite that, she persevered and ignored the mockery just because she wanted to be with you. However, every girl has their self-esteem and one day my sister just couldn’t take it anymore. She felt that she was being treated unjustly and yes, it was the day she broke up with you!” “But

“I-I don’t know where she is! She only came to the school to visit me once. Other than that, we’ve only communicated through the phone!” cried out Natasha. “Call her then!” ordered Gerald. He had to meet up and deal with Xavia as soon as he could. Gerald couldn’t have her troubling him all the time. ‘If I’ve done anything wrong to you, take your revenge on me! Your mistake was hurting those close to me,’ Gerald thought to himself. He just couldn’t stand people like that. As Natasha reached for her phone, she kept signaling to her subordinates—using her eyes—to take down Gerald and the duo. However, none of the guards even dared to move. They all knew how strong Gerald’s people were so they didn’t do anything. Only people like Scorpion would be able to deal with Tyson and Drake. Understanding that they weren’t going to act, Natasha could only hand over her phone to Gerald in defeat. Gerald quickly found Xavia’s numb

She gestured with a finger for him to come closer. Gerald really didn’t want to go over to them after being ordered like that. After all, he was no longer the same person he used to be. He didn’t need to listen to her orders anymore. He remembered snippets where she would order him to do things like this in the past. “Gerald, have you moved those boxes of mineral water?” “Gerald, go help everyone else with their luggage!” …Maybe that was why Maia was so used to ordering him around. Eventually, though he was left speechless, he found himself walking toward the group. “Haha! So it really is true! Gerald really listens to you!” “As if he would dare not to! Not only was she his team captain in high school, she’s now a cop too! He has to listen or he’ll be locked up!” joked another girl. “Anyway, say Gerald, I heard that you’re still pretty poor. How did you afford to drink at this bar? Did you get rich or something?” asked Maia. She had been curious about this from the mo

The trio then headed for the ladies. As Maia was washing her hands, through the mirror, her eyes caught sight of two women with long, curly hair walking toward her. Their eyes were equally cold and stern. As she continued looking at them through the mirror, she immediately felt that something was wrong. “What are you guys doing?” asked Maia and the other two girls in unison. It took her a moment, but Tina suddenly exclaimed, “Huh? Aren’t both of you men dressed up as women? Maia, look! They have Adam’s apples on their throats!” “Heh, you’re pretty smart! It’s too late for that though! We’re here to kill you!” sneered the two men as they each pulled out a pistol with silencers attached to them. They were both aiming at Maia. “Ahh!” Since the other two girls were only newly-recruited police officers, both of them were scared witless in this life-and-death situation. Maia herself was drenched in cold sweat. It was at that moment when she remembered Gerald warning her e

While Gerald was walking next to Giya, his phone started to ring. It was a call from Zack. “Gerald, there’s a celebrity banquet tonight and I hope that you’ll attend. Since a master treasure appraiser from the South will be attending, you can have him appraise the jade pendant when you meet him. A few other celebrities from Mayberry will be attending as well.” Zack was still helping Gerald track down Xavia. He had brought up the celebrity banquet a few days ago as well. The celebrity banquet was a yearly event and celebrities from all walks of life usually turned up. Since it wouldn’t look good on Gerald’s part if he refused to attend, Gerald simply agreed to go. When evening came, Gerald arrived—together with Yoel and Aiden—at the banquet which was being held at Mountainview Manor. As was expected, the venue was packed. The large manor was usually used for gathering events, second only to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment. The owner of Mountainview Manor, was Wallace Quinnens
