The scenario just now was just too much to comprehend and virtual-novel.net was really afraid that this group of people would really kill them.
“Exactly! Do you know that I nearly became Gerald’s girlfriend? How dare you treat me like this?”
Quinn also shrieked.
When they saw the group of respected people who were clustering around Gerald earlier at the top of the building, they were already extremely shocked.
Quinton and Howard fell silent throughout the whole time as their faces were pale with fear.
“Let them go…”
Gerald said as virtual-novel.net walked down.
“You heard him! He asked you to let us go!”
Quinn shouted.
Gerald was really Mr. Crawford from Mayberry Commercial Street. He was Mr. Crawford who owned the entire Mayberry Commercial Street. He was simply too amazing!
This whole surprising reveal was just too shocking!
Quinn was about to reach virtual-novel.net maximum limit!
“Gerald! Gerald! I always knew that you were different compared to them. I was wrong in the past. I always wanted to get your attention and that is the reason why I used to mock you in the past. In fact, I was only doing it because I liked you but you did not like me at all!”
Quinn kept trying to flatter Gerald as virtual-novel.net rushed in front of him.
Gerald felt goosebumps creeping all over his body as soon as virtual-novel.net heard virtual-novel.net words.
Fuck! This kind of explanation was simply too cringy, right? She had always been taunting virtual-novel.net and mocking virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net wanted to get his attention?
“Mr. Crawford!”
Quinton, Howard and both of their new girlfriends were all suddenly respectful towards Gerald all of a sudden.
How respectful were they willing to be?
It is to the point that anything Gerald would request of them to do, they would be willing to do it completely!
He could do and say as virtual-novel.net pleased, just like those big shots in the movies.
But at that instance, there were flashes of evil thoughts briefly through Gerald’s mind.
After all, deep down, Gerald had never been the kind of domineering person.
“Mr. Crawford, what do you plan to do with them? You can take necessary measures when it is necessary!”
Zack hinted to virtual-novel.net from the side. After all, Gerald’s identity has already been exposed to these few people!
“No, no, no! Mr. Crawford. Ahh! No, I mean Gerald, you are still the pathetic pauper, Gerald. We don’t know who you are and we have already completely forgotten everything that happened today!”
Quinton was always the smartest amongst the lot.
He immediately caught on and understood what Zack meant.
He spoke in a hurry as virtual-novel.net knelt down in front of Gerald with a loud thud.
“Yes! We don’t know that you are Mr. Crawford!”
Howard and Nathaniel also quickly jumped in.
“It would be best if you could just forget everything that happened here today. Otherwise, there will definitely be more trouble for you in the future,” Gerald said briefly, before virtual-novel.net turned around and left.
These people were already acting this way, so Gerald could not possibly get rid of them all just because his identity has been compromised.
They eventually got through this daunting experience anyway without any mishaps. Zack was also then talking to Gerald about some of his family matters in private.
He only gave virtual-novel.net a general outline but Gerald found out that the Crawford was a very wealthy and powerful family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. They also had countless industrial assets in their possession!
This resulted in the Crawford family having many rules and steps in inheriting the family, and its assets were even more cumbersome.
For instance, the first test was when Gerald had to live in poverty for more than ten years!
Gerald would have to face even more complicated tests in the near future and Zack urging Gerald to be fully psychologically prepared for these challenges.
…
Gerald sent Mila back home later on before driving back to school again. He stopped his car not too far away from the school gate.
Many pretty girls cast their gazes on him.
Some of them were even screaming out loud.
Gerald had already gotten accustomed to all these.
To be honest, Gerald felt that virtual-novel.net was quite a scumbag at this rate. Yes, virtual-novel.net was indeed rich now but showing off in front of everyone like this still made virtual-novel.net feel very uncomfortable.
To put it bluntly, no matter how much Gerald had changed, virtual-novel.net could not change his low key and down-to-earth character and personality.
However, it was not the case if virtual-novel.net had to drive this luxury car to go everywhere in future.
It seemed as though virtual-novel.net would have to buy himself a house in Mayberry City.
This way, virtual-novel.net would be able to park his car in the house and it would be very convenient for him, regardless of whether virtual-novel.net wanted to start his own company or do something else in future.
Most importantly, virtual-novel.net would be able to go to class, rest and live a normal campus life as virtual-novel.net wanted to, every day!
Gerald could not help but think about all this as virtual-novel.net sat in the driver’s seat.
Suddenly, a piece of news exploded in the class’s group chat.
“Shocking news! Look at this! This is simply too shocking!”
A student from their class posted all the pictures that virtual-novel.net had taken inside the group chat!
