The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 271-280



Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 271
The incident involving Jacelyn really made Gerald break out in cold sweat.
Fortunately, after sending her to the hospital for a diagnosis, he realized that Jacelyn had only suffered a concussion and had
passed out from the impact.
She would be fine after recuperating for a while.
“Gerald, don’t leave! I love you!”
“Mr. Crawford, don’t leave! I love you to death!”
Jacelyn was still muttering nonsense to herself while she was in a coma.
Gerald was also a little frustrated. Do you really love me? You only love the identity of Mr. Crawford!
Finally, Gerald paid for Jacelyn’s high medical expenses.
After that, he drove to Mountain Top so that he could park his car there.
After leaving the garage, Gerald was just about to take a cab and leave.
At this time, Gerald suddenly noticed that something was wrong with Mountain Top.
That was to say, the Mountain Top Villa was very brightly lit at this moment.
The architectural style of this villa itself had an ancient charm to it. At this time, as the night was getting deeper, it looked
extremely magnificent and radiant with the brightly lit lights.
It was simply amazing.
However, he was not there, and Rita would not dare to live in the villa so blatantly.
Who could it be?
Gerald was very surprised.
Thus, he decided to go up and take a look for himself.

When he arrived at the entrance of the villa, he realized that there were indeed people inside. There was more than just one
person inside. There were many men and women, and it was very lively inside.
This was strange. Who were they? Why were they holding a party at his house? They even had his house key too!
Gerald walked over a little angrily and pushed the door open.
“Ahhh?”
The people inside were obviously taken aback when they saw Gerald appearing, and they all stared at him in amazement.
As for Gerald, he also looked at these men and women in astonishment.
Hmph!
There were about a dozen men and women inside the villa.
They had already turned the center of the living room into a makeshift bar, and it was filled with various food and drinks.
A dozen people were drinking and enjoying themselves at this time!
However, Gerald did not feel that these people looked familiar to him at all. They were definitely not from Aiden’s group of
friends, and they were certainly not his godbrother, Yoel’s friends.
This was weird.
The two security guards halfway up the mountain were still there. So, how did these people get into his villa?
“Dmn it. Who are you?! Dmn! Is this a place where an ordinary person like you can just come?” A scowling boy scolded him as
he frowned.
“Oh my God. He must be a pathetic jerk who heard of the atmosphere on Mountain Top! That’s why he wanted to come here to
visit!”
“Could it be possible that he came from the back of the mountain? Oh my! There are really all kinds of people in this world.”
Several girls looked at Gerald with a satirical look on their faces.

Yes. Gerald had never paid any attention to his own dressing. He only felt that it was important to wear clean and fresh clothes.
Therefore, he would naturally always be rejected wherever he went.
These girls who were already used to seeing tall, rich, and handsome guys would naturally despise him.
Gerald frowned as he asked lightly, “I also want to ask you. Who let all of you in here?”
It would be a lie to say that he was not angry.
His original intention in buying this villa was not because he wanted to show off. He simply wanted to have a place for himself in
the future.
But what had it become now? Was this their playground?
A girl who was obviously drunk walked up to Gerald before she poked his chest unceremoniously. “This person’s tone is not
polite at all. Do you think you have the right to ask us how we came in?”
“Forget it, Lucille. We have already seen many people like this. If Silas did not warn us repeatedly not to shed any blood on
Mountain Top Villa, I would have already beaten him up. Let’s just call the security guards and send him to the police station
directly!”
“Yes! We should send him to the police station!”
As everyone agreed, they started making phone calls immediately.
“Why are you guys so noisy?”
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 272
Suddenly, at this moment, an extremely impatient boy’s voice sounded from the balcony on the second floor.
Right after, a boy brought a girl down with him as they walked down the stairs slowly.
“I am enjoying the scenery here. Can’t you just be quiet for a moment? Do you really think that this is your house?”
This boy was obviously the leader of this crowd of people. Moreover, he was scolding them unceremoniously at this time.

The boy who was scolding Gerald immediately replied with a smile on his face. “Yes, yes, yes, Silas! It’s just because someone
is trying to cause trouble here!”
The boy who had been enjoying the scenery on the balcony was none other than Michael’s son, Silas.
Gerald suddenly realized what was happening.
It seemed as though Michael had given his house key to Silas!
“Someone is causing trouble here? Who is so bold? Is he tired of living?” Silas asked as he frowned.
“Silas, Silas, it’s him! It’s him!”
Immediately afterward, five or six girls came up one after the other before they grabbed hold of Gerald.
This was a scene that seemed as though a group of lackeys had caught hold of an intruder. After that, they were trying
desperately to claim credit for their action from their boss.
They dragged Gerald directly in front of Silas.
As for the girl who had been standing behind Silas all this while, the expression on her face tightened after she saw Gerald’s
face clearly. “Gerald, it’s you?”
She was obviously very surprised.
Gerald had been very focused on looking at Silas and had not noticed her at all. Therefore, he also had a baffled look on his face
when he saw her.
Alice!
After the surprise, sarcasm immediately followed.“Hehe. Gerald, how did you come up here? Did you come up here because you
wanted to see and experience the elegance of Mountain Top Villa?”
This event had already been planned for today.
To be honest, some time ago, the news that a rich heir had purchased the Mountain Top Villa for one hundred and twenty million
dollars had already been circulating the internet.

Alice and the others must have already heard about the Mountain Top Villa.
However, they could not even dream about it even if they really wanted to take a look at this place.
This was a truly grand location.
However, Alice discovered that even the impossible seemed to be possible after she had met Silas.
When Silas told everyone that he had the keys to the Mountain Top Villa today, no one had believed him at all.
Everyone was only taken aback when he had held the key out in his own hand.
It was also agreed upon that Jayden and Jacelyn would come here tonight.
However, there had been no news from Jayden at all ever since the afternoon. Moreover, Jacelyn’s cell phone had already been
turned off!
This made Alice feel a little awkward because she was all alone. Fortunately, Silas had been accompanying her throughout the
whole night.
As she looked at the scenery in the distance from the balcony just now, Alice finally realized what it meant to be above everyone
else.
Thus, at this time, Alice’s voice had a mocking tone to it. She no longer had the kind of vengeance that she felt against Gerald
before this.
What was there to retaliate against someone like this?
“Alice, do you know this person? How would you like to deal with him?” Silas clearly looked down on Gerald even more, and he
was smiling faintly at this time.
“Ask him to leave! I don’t want to see this kind of person in such a good environment!”
After she was done speaking, Alice glanced at Gerald before she walked back upstairs again.
“Didn’t you hear what sister-in-law just said? She asked you to leave!”
“Get lost!”

Before Gerald could say anything, he had already been pushed out of the villa by a group of girls before they slammed the door
close behind him.
This made Gerald feel extremely furious.
First, he had been humiliated and ridiculed by this group of girls. After that, he had been insulted by Alice.
And finally, they had asked him to get lost?!
Were they really treating him like a joke just because he was not showing his power?
Gerald could no longer hold in or bear the previous rage he was feeling including the anger that he was feeling right now.
Therefore, he took out his cell phone and called Rita and Michael, one after the other...
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 273
Gerald called Michael and Rita, but he did not say anything much. He simply asked them to come up and take a look at the
Mountain Top Villa. After that, he hung up the phone immediately.
As for just now, Gerald really had the urge to have a showdown with them.
However, after thinking about it, the reason why Alice had suffered time and time again and turned out like this was also because
of him.
To put it bluntly, it had always had something to do with him.
He was the one who had released the video of Quinton and his stepmother. This had really stimulated Alice and caused her to
be further aggravated.
After that, he had made a fool out of her.
Although he did not know how Silas treated her now, Gerald could tell that she seemed to be quite satisfied. Therefore, Gerald
also felt a little relieved.
If this was the case, couldn’t Gerald simply let this matter slide instead of calling Michael?
No!

Gerald was still a little selfish.
Alice was so beautiful, and it seemed like she was going to spend the night with another man tonight.
Gerald could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.
Although he did not like Alice, he did not feel good about it.
Besides, this was his own house. He could not just let it go like that when a group of outsiders had thrown him out of his own
house!
Gerald went down the mountain and prepared to leave.
“Mr. Crawford!”
It just so happened that Rita had already arrived in a hurry.
She already knew what was going on when she saw the bright lights shining from the villa even from a distance.
How could Rita possibly not be nervous?!
“Mr. Crawford! Mr. Crawford!”
However, Gerald completely ignored her.
Instead, he simply walked to the side of the road before stopping a cab and leaving directly.
“Ahh! It’s over!” Rita exclaimed nervously.
In fact, Rita already knew that this group of students would be coming up to the villa to play because Michael had already told
her about it in advance.
Rita originally disagreed with this matter. However, Michael had been praised by Mr. Crawford for his work this time. Moreover,
his unworthy son had kept pestering him relentlessly.
It would not be a problem for him to allow his son to go up to the Mountain Top Villa just to have a look, right?
After all, even his subordinate’s son, Aiden, had gone to play at the Mountain Top Villa before.

That was the reason why Michael had finally agreed to give the villa house key to Silas.
He simply intended to let him go up to Mountain Top Villa to have a look before coming down immediately.
Therefore, Rita did not take it to heart at all. However, Rita could not help but feel a little anxious because Gerald had ignored
her completely just now.
At this time, she quickly rushed up the mountain.
“Oh! Miss Rita is here! Everyone, quiet down. Alice, I will introduce Miss Rita to you. She is the personal housekeeper of the
Mountain Top Villa. She is also one of Mr. Crawford’s favorite personnel, just like my father!”
Silas had a glass of wine in his hand, and he held Alice’s hand as he brought her over to Rita.
These were all people who worked for Mr. Crawford.
Therefore, Silas also knew many of them, such as Aiden, Yoel, and the big bosses of many establishments on Mayberry
Commercial Street.
He had even become Jane’s godbrother.
Therefore, he was also naturally familiar with Rita.
“Hello, Miss Rita!”
Rita was completely speechless. “Why are you so happy?! Silas, do you know that you have caused a terrible disaster this
time?”
As soon as her words came out, the villa became very quiet. The music was also turned off immediately.
Silas was stunned and he asked, “A terrible disaster? What disaster did I cause?”
Rita placed her hand on her forehead as she said, “Let me ask you, who gave you permission to host a party at the Mountain
Top Villa? Weren’t you supposed to just take a look at the place and leave immediately afterward?”
Silas replied confidently, “Hehe. It’s okay! My dad told me that Mr. Crawford is in Northbay, and he will not be back here tonight.
Besides, I will definitely restore the villa to its original state tomorrow!”

Rita responded coldly, “Northbay my ass! Let me tell you something, Silas. Mr. Crawford was here just now. I believe Mr.
Crawford has already called your dad too. You should be prepared to explain things to your dad later!”
“What?! Mr. Crawford was here?” Silas was even more confused. His father had told him that Mr. Crawford was not here and that
he was away in Northbay.
Alice was also taken aback.
How could she possibly not know if Mr. Crawford had been here? When did any Mr. Crawford make an appearance?
“Miss Rita, aren’t you making too big of a fuss? We did not see Mr. Crawford, only a pathetic jerk who was just here! Hahaha!”
“We have already chased that pathetic jerk down the mountain just now!”
“Yes, Miss Rita, we also want to give you a suggestion. You should not wait for three days before sending the full security team
over here. The security team should be working at full force now!”
The girls all chattered, one after the other.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 274
Rita did not continue answering any of their questions. Regarding Mr. Crawford’s matter, it was obvious that Silas knew too little
about him. Therefore, she knew that it would be inconvenient for her to disclose too much information.
She simply shook her head as she went down the mountain immediately.
Silas spoke as he smiled bitterly, “What is the matter with Miss Rita today? Why did she say that Mr. Crawford was here earlier?
If Mr. Crawford was really going to come here, my dad would have already...”
But at this time, his cell phone suddenly rang.
Silas answered the phone with a smile on his face. “Dad!”
“Don’t yell at me, dad. You are my father!”
Michael continued yelling wildly on the other side of the line, he was also panting.

After that, both of them continued speaking. By this time, the smile on Silas’s face had already gradually disappeared, and his
face had turned pale.
In the end, Michael simply hung up the phone.
“Silas, Silas, what happened?” Alice asked as she was also in a perturbed state of mind.
“It’s over. It’s all over! My dad told me that Mr. Crawford might have actually been here! Moreover, Mr. Crawford specifically
called my father and Miss Rita to ask him about this situation. I am going to get my legs broken now! I’m done for!”
Silas dropped his cell phone to the ground in fright.
He was obviously very afraid of his father. He knew that things had already gone awry based on the current tone of his father’s
voice.
“What? Mr. Crawford was truly here?” Alice could not help but tremble uncontrollably.
As the girls had just mentioned, throughout the entire event, no one else had been here aside from that pathetic jerk, Gerald!
That’s right! Alice came to a sudden realization.
Gerald... wasn’t Gerald’s last name Crawford too?!
He was indeed much richer compared to the past. Moreover, if you just added the honorific, ‘mister’, in front of his last name, it
would be... Mr. Crawford!
What?!
How could it possibly be him?
Alice felt that her mind was a complete blank.
To be honest, this was not the first time that Alice had had some suspicions about Gerald’s identity. However, everything had
always been hazy and there was no solid evidence in the past.
However, she had never gotten closer to the truth than this!
Yes! Gerald came up to the mountain, and he had left the mountain after she had taunted him.

After that, Rita and Michael had gotten entangled in the situation almost immediately.
Moreover, they even said that Mr. Crawford had been here!
At this time, Alice was filled with doubts as she thought about everything that had happened between her and Gerald in the past.
If she imagined that Gerald was Mr. Crawford...
Then, everything would make sense!
“Impossible! It’s absolutely impossible! How could he possibly be Mr. Crawford? How could Mr. Crawford be him?”
Alice felt as though she was about to collapse.
If Gerald was truly Mr. Crawford, Alice would just want to jump off the top of the mountain and fall to her death now!
Had she truly missed out on this great opportunity from the very beginning?
She could never accept this!
Silas scratched his head before saying, “Okay, everyone. We should stop speculating now. How could that guy possibly be Mr.
Crawford? Besides, how could Mr. Crawford be so low-key? At most, this guy is a stalker who came here to supervise things,
and he reported what he saw here today! Just listen to my instructions first! We will clean up the scene, and then, we will leave
the mountain as soon as possible! Otherwise, my dad will really kill me when he gets here!” Silas hurriedly instructed them.
Everyone agreed with him. This included Alice, who agreed that Gerald was probably just a stalker.
This was because she knew that Silas would not lie to her. The mysterious Mr. Crawford had always been in Northbay!
After they were done cleaning up, everyone rushed to the garage, all prepared to get into their cars and drive away.
“F*ck!”
“F*ck!”
“F*ck!”
However, after going down the mountain, they saw the cool Lamborghini Reventon sports car parked in the garage, and they
were all dazzled.

Everyone asked in surprise, “Whose car is this? Silas, is it yours?”
“How could it possibly be mine? My car is a Ferrari!”
“Whose car is this? Very few people in Mayberry City drive this kind of sports car!”
Everyone was puzzled.
As for Alice, although her heart had already settled down initially, her emotions were all over the place again when she saw the
car at this time...
Alice whispered incredulously, “I know the origins of this car...”
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 275
”You know?” Silas and the others asked in surprise.
“Yes!” Alice replied in certainty. She continued, “This is a luxury sports car that has been parked at the small park near Mayberry
University. There have also been rumors that this car was bought by Mr. Crawford. After that, there were rumors stating that this
car had been bought by a mysterious local tycoon, Ordinary Man, who is also a student in the Department of Language and
Literature in our university. Some people also said that Ordinary Man is actually Mr. Crawford’s online nickname!”
“In that case, this car should be parked at our school! Why would the local tycoon, Ordinary Man, park his car here?”
“This is the villa bought by Mr. Crawford!” Alice frowned as she said in disbelief.
Yes. Anyone else could believe that Gerald was Mr. Crawford and it would mean nothing to them at all.
However, Alice could not believe it.
She was scared. She was especially frightened.
When she was still in the villa just now, she had been wracking her brains to figure out how she could remove Gerald entirely
from this equation.
She only needed one reason to avoid this fact, and Silas had finally come up with a reason for that.
However, how could things be explained now?

Ordinary Man’s car was parked here, and it was rumored that he was Mr. Crawford. Now, it was almost certainly sure that
Ordinary Man was truly Mr. Crawford!
Rita had already mentioned that Mr. Crawford was here.
The only other person who had been here throughout the entire night was none other than Gerald!
The local tycoon, Ordinary Man, was from the Department of Language and Literature, and Gerald was also from the
Department of Language and Literature!
Alice could feel her breathing increase rapidly.
Why? Why did it seem as though everything was pointing to the fact that Gerald was actually the mysterious Mr. Crawford?!
Silas took a deep breath before he gave his instructions. “Oh, it seems as though that kid from earlier also has some background
of his own. Anyway, everyone should just listen to me. Just hide when you see him in the future, and if you cannot hide, just be
courteous to him!”
He was very courageous, but he had only accepted one concept ever since he was a child. He would have to be very cautious
and careful when handling matters related to the Crawford family.
This was the case now.
Although he did not know who Gerald was, he would just treat him with common courtesy and respect from now onward.
Wouldn’t everything be fine then?
After he was done speaking, Silas looked at Alice before he said, “Alice, you should also stop thinking about this matter. Anyway,
listen to me. Just be polite and respectful toward Gerald when you see him in the future. What’s the big deal? You can also
apologize to him for everything that happened today!”
“Be polite? Apologize to him? Why should I apologize or be polite to him? Silas, you are the son of the boss of Mayberry
Commercial Street! Why are you afraid of Gerald? Didn’t you say that you will get rid of and teach a lesson to anyone who is not
pleasing to my eyes? I think Gerald is not pleasing to my eyes! I want you to teach him a lesson and get rid of him on my behalf!
As long as you do that, I will be yours from now on!” Alice replied as she jumped up.
This was because she could not accept the fact that the Silas that she felt was omnipotent was actually conceding to Gerald?

Wouldn’t this mean that Gerald was better than Silas then?
Since Gerald was someone she despised, he had to always be a scumbag! Alice would certainly not be able to accept it if
Gerald gained a good reputation!
Thus, she was yelling like a crazy person at this time.
“D*mn it! Alice, are you crazy?” Silas replied in a somewhat displeased manner.
Although the condition offered by Alice was really very attractive and even if he had always been a romantic who was very willful,
he was not stupid!
This Gerald could very likely be Mr. Crawford and she still wanted him to teach Gerald a lesson? He might not even be able to
keep his own tongue if he cursed at him!
Alice was about to cry as she yelled, “I don’t care! Gerald can’t possibly be Mr. Crawford. Didn’t you say that he is probably just a
stalker? How could he possibly be Mr. Crawford? How could that be possible? Moreover, he has always been famous as the
pathetic pauper in our school!”
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 276
Silas was also a little confused.
At this time, Silas’s cell phone suddenly rang. As soon as he saw the name on the caller ID, he answered the call with an angry
look on his face. He also turned on the speaker on his cell phone without any hesitation!
“F*ck! Jayden, where were you? Didn’t you already agree to come to Mountain Top Villa with Jacelyn tonight? Why? Did the two
of you go to open a room?” Silas asked as he cursed at him.
“Don’t talk about it, Silas. I caused a huge catastrophe today and was beaten half to death by my dad. My mom just finished
applying some medication for me!”
“What? Uncle Scott has always spoiled and doted on you, yet he actually beat you up today? Did you do something terrible or
did you do something to offend the Crawford family?”
“I don’t know who I provoked today. However, how could I possibly have offended the Crawford family? I am not stupid. To tell
you the truth, I simply had a conflict with some of the guys from the Department of Language and Literature today. Do you know

that Jane also hit me just because I offended someone called Mr. Benjamin Langdon from the Department of Language and
Literature? Jacelyn also knows who he is!”
“F*ck! Mr. Benjamin Langdon? Why haven’t I heard of him before? Jane beat you up because of him?” Silas could not help but
feel a little confused. What was going on today?
“Wait a minute. Who are you talking about? Benjamin? Are you sure that Jacelyn knows them too?”
These words made Alice’s body tremble a little.
She leaned over as she spoke over the phone.
“By the way, Alice, you should know them too. That woman, Jacelyn, told me that you often associate with people from their
dormitory! What is that Benjamin’s background? D*mn it! He is simply too powerful!”
“Well, if it’s the same Benjamin I know of, then I know for certain that he is just a pathetic jerk who has no money or power at all.
How could he possibly cause such a huge sensation?”
“Who said no? I also checked it out again. Benjamin has no background at all and his family is actually suffering to make ends
meet. The only good thing about their family is that there was someone who actually did very well in the civil examinations in the
past. That’s all! I really do not understand why my father is beating me up like this!”
Jayden had even investigated and turned over Benjamin’s full family background and history as he felt that things were simply
too unclear.
Alice paused at this time. She seemed to have thought of something. She did not want to ask about that person, but she couldn’t
help it.
Alice asked solemnly, “Jayden, let me ask you something. Was there a guy named Gerald by Benjamin’s side today?”
“D*mn it! How did you know? Yes! Yes, there was a man following him named Gerald, and he seemed to be one of Benjamin’s
lackeys. I think that the booking for the hotel and restaurant were all made by that guy named Gerald. He even picked up a beer
bottle and smashed it directly on my cousin’s head! However, he seems to know Jane really well.” Jayden replied, filled with
doubts.
“Sure enough, it’s him again!”

Alice was shocked once again.
What was Jayden saying? What Mr. Langdon? How could Gerald possibly be his lackey? Gerald was very likely the legendary
Mr. Crawford of Mayberry City!
The Mr. Crawford who had countless assets!
“D*mn it. It seems as though we really should not be messing around with that guy named Gerald. We should even apologize to
him the next time we see him! Otherwise, we will really be done for if he turns out to be Mr. Crawford!”
“Yes! Yes! Fortunately, I did not say anything harsh to Gerald just now. I was also very gentle when I poked him in the chest!”
Several girls had already turned pale in fright.
Silas simply nodded in response.
Alice was very dissatisfied when she saw that everyone was shocked because of Gerald.
She started laughing out loud as she said, “Hahaha. You’re all cowards! All of you are truly cowards! A pathetic jerk like Gerald
could actually scare you like this? Well, all of you are terrified of him, right? I’m not afraid of him at all! What’s so great about
Gerald? I don’t believe that Gerald is really Mr. Crawford! Gerald is just a scumbag and an idiot!”
Alice clenched her fists tightly until her nails were digging deep into her palms.
She was not convinced at all, and she really felt very uncomfortable. Why were all these high ranking people so afraid of Gerald?
Let’s talk about Gerald.
He had already gone back to his dormitory to sleep. So, he could not even be bothered to ask what Michael would do to deal
with this matter, and he slept all the way till dawn.
Gerald was feeling just fine when he woke up the next day.
It was only then that he thought of Jacelyn. After all, he was the one who had caused the accident. So, shouldn’t he find out if
she was already awake?
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 277

Gerald did not drive. Instead, he simply took a cab to the hospital.
Jacelyn was placed in a special VIP ward.
When Gerald came to the ward, the environment in the area was very quiet.
“Get out! I want all of you to get out! I will not accept your examination unless I see the person who saved me! Get out!”
Unexpectedly, when Gerald arrived at the door of the ward, he heard Jacelyn yelling and losing her temper.
A group of senior doctors and nurses were chased out of the ward by her.
“Oh! This Miss Leigh really has a very bad temper. She will not even allow us to examine her at all. What if her condition worsens
because of the delay?”
“Yes! How are we going to explain this then?”
Several nurses spoke anxiously.
When they turned around, they saw Gerald walking toward them with some fruits and gifts in his hand.
“Hello, Mr. Crawford. You are finally here. The patient has been clamoring to see you as soon as she woke up!”
Several beautiful nurses approached Gerald immediately.
This was because Gerald had been so lavish when he arrived at the hospital in his Lamborghini the other day. Therefore, these
beautiful nurses naturally paid a lot of attention to Gerald, and they all referred to him as Mr. Crawford in a respectful manner.
Gerald nodded faintly at the group of nurses before he asked a middle-aged attending doctor, named Dr. Zech about Jacelyn’s
condition. “Oh, Dr. Zech, when did Jacelyn wake up? How is she?”
Dr. Zech’s eyes lit up immediately as soon as he saw Gerald.
After that, he waved his hand slightly as he motioned for the nurses to leave first.
“Hello, Mr. Crawford. The patient only suffered a slight concussion which is not a major problem. We have also given her some
medication, and she has already lost about half a month’s worth of her memory now!” Dr. Zech replied as he smiled faintly.
He seemed to have already known about Gerald’s identity.

This made Gerald feel a little puzzled. After sending Jacelyn here yesterday, he had called Zack and asked him to arrange for
the ward and special care for Jacelyn in the hospital.
However, he had never asked Zack to give Jacelyn amnesia!
Gerald did not even need to think about it to know that Zack had already called the hospital to make all the necessary
arrangements after ending the call with him. He not only arranged the VIP ward and special medical staff to watch over Jacelyn,
but he also instructed the doctor to make sure that Jacelyn would not remember everything that had happened.
Zack was really very thoughtful and meticulous!
Gerald could only smile wryly to himself.
However, this was perfect too. It would be less burdensome for him in the future.
“Okay. I will have to trouble you with this matter. I will reward you greatly in the future. I will go in and see her first!”
“Okay, Mr. Crawford!”
Gerald pushed the door of the ward open.
“Get lost! I told you... f*ck! Gerald, why are you here?”
Jacelyn had already picked up a water glass and was about to throw it, but she was stunned when she saw Gerald entering the
ward at this time.
To be honest, ever since she had woken up in a daze last night, she had been filled with doubts. She had begun to put on airs
and display a very bad temper when she noticed the cautious and respectful attitude that the medical staff had toward her.
At first, Jacelyn had asked them how she had ended up in the hospital.
The doctor told her that a rich man had brought her here, and he had even arranged for her to stay in the VIP ward.
When Jacelyn eagerly asked about the identity of the rich man, the doctors refused to say anything at all.
Moreover, everyone was very courteous and respectful toward Jacelyn.
That was the reason why Jacelyn dared to act so unscrupulously just now.

However, she really did not expect to see Gerald.
“You seem to be feeling a lot better based on your voice.”
Gerald put down the bag of fruits in his hand before he sat down.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 278
”Oh my God. Gerald, why are you here? Wait. Don’t tell me that you were the one who saved me? But what happened to me?
Why can’t I remember anything at all?” Jacelyn asked in surprise.
Gerald replied without feeling ashamed at all, “Yes, I saved you. As for what happened... you were walking too fast on campus
and you tripped over a stone, subsequently hitting your head on another stone. I was the one who rescued you and brought you
to the hospital!”
“Ahh! So, that’s what it was. Cough! Cough!” Jacelyn replied in disappointment.
Gerald felt like laughing when he asked, “Why does it seem as though you are very disappointed to find out that I was the one
who saved you?”
Hmph! Of course that was the case!
I originally thought that I got hit lightly by a car, and it was a luxury car. The owner of the luxury car was also a very handsome
man.
Finally, it would be better if it was raining last night. The handsome man squatted down in the rain before he hugged me and
patted me lightly on my cheek as he asked me anxiously, “Miss, are you okay?”
When he saw that she was in a coma, the rich and handsome young man carried her in his arms as he rushed her to the hospital
in the car.
After that, he would visit her with a bunch of delicious fruits, and he would peel some apples for her too.
Then, he would take her for a walk in the park.
After getting along for more than half a month, the both of them would suddenly fall in love.

He would fall in love with her, and he would kneel down and propose to her on a starry night.
As for the marriage proposal, he would light up the sky with fireworks and spell out the words ‘I love you’.
“Jacelyn, I love you! Will you marry me? I am willing to use everything that I have in exchange for your lifetime happiness!”
“Yes! Yes!”
Then, both of them would start kissing on this romantic night. Halfway through the kiss, Jacelyn opened her eyes.
D*mn it! Gerald!
So, everyone could imagine Jacelyn’s mood and what she was feeling at this time.
“Hey! Hey! Why are you holding my hand? I’m asking you a question! Are you disappointed that I was the one who saved you?”
Gerald could not help but smile bitterly when he saw the idiotic look on Jacelyn’s face.
“Ahh! I... I’m not! Well, Gerald, you are actually pretty tall, and you do not look that bad. In fact, as long as you wear some nice
clothes and dress properly, you will also look very handsome. Now, after winning the lottery, you are also rich and have some
connections. So, you can be considered a tall, rich, and handsome man!”
“However, you are still far off from those who are really rich, powerful, and handsome. I do not know why it is like this. Perhaps it
is just your temperament!” Jacelyn started complaining, “Hmph! I thought that it was a tall, rich, and handsome man who saved
me, but I guess you’re not too bad either!”
Jacelyn knew that Gerald was also quite rich. Although it was highly possible that he was a gigolo who was someone else’s
lover, it was fine as long as he had money. She could try her best to get her hands on his money!
Gerald could tell that Jacelyn’s current memory was at the moment when Alice had misunderstood his intentions at her
department the last time.
“Gerald, can you peel an apple for me?” Jacelyn held her cheeks in her hands and asked as she tilted her head to look at
Gerald, smiling delicately.
“But I didn’t buy any apples. Can you eat a banana instead?”

Gerald also felt a little guilty toward Jacelyn. After all, he was the one who had bumped into her, and he was also the reason
behind her amnesia. Anyone would feel uncomfortable in this situation.
Gerald started to peel a banana for her.
“Oh, I don’t want to! Pfft! I am not eating it. Put it away!”
“Gerald, can you go out and buy some apples for me? I want to eat some apples that have already been cut!” Jacelyn asked as
she held Gerald’s hand.
Gerald quickly retracted his hand before he said, “Okay. Okay, then. I will go and buy some apples for you. Wait for a moment.”
After that, Gerald slipped away in a hurry.
Gerald had just gotten into the elevator when the elevator door beside his elevator opened.
About four to five girls stepped out of the elevator with a fruit basket in their hands.
“Alice, did Jacelyn explain everything clearly to you? This is the VIP ward!”
“Yes, don’t worry, Hayley. I’ve already clarified everything. Come! Let’s go and see her.”
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 279
”1902! This is it!”
When Hayley saw it, she pushed the door open.
“Jacelyn, we’re here to see you!”
“Alice! Hayley! You’re here!” Jacelyn was eating a banana at this time. She was delighted when she saw that Alice and Hayley
were here.
The next step was very simple. They started asking Jacelyn about her condition.
Finally, they were talking about the cause and effect!
“What? It was Gerald who saved you? Where is he, then?” Alice stood up suddenly as she exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone was shocked. If anyone was particularly sensitive to the word ‘Gerald’, it was none other than Alice.
After Alice had returned to her dormitory yesterday, she did not think about Silas or anything else. All she could think about was
Gerald alone.
Her heart hurt terribly, and she could not help but feel a little afraid.
What would she do if Gerald was indeed Mr. Crawford?!
To be honest, Alice had had the urge to leave her dormitory and rush to Gerald’s dormitory before she held Gerald in her arms
and told him she was sorry. She would try to make things up with him, and she would treat him well in the future.
She really wanted to put everything in.
However, after thinking about it, she could not help but wonder what if Gerald was not Mr. Crawford? This was because Gerald
was really a very confusing person now!
Oh! She did not want to say anything anymore!
In short, Alice felt even more entangled and uncomfortable than ever.
So, as soon as she heard about Gerald, she wanted to see him immediately so that she could ask him about things and make
things clear once and for all. After all, both of them had already lost contact with one another after the last time.
“Alice, are you okay? Why do you have such a strong reaction?”
Everyone could not help but feel a little surprised.
“Oh! Oh! I’m fine. I have not seen that scumbag in such a long time, I was just feeling a little angry when I heard his name!”
Alice had an ignorant look on her face. She was also a very shrewd person, and she did not disclose anything about what had
happened yesterday.
“Hmph! That’s right! Me too! I am so angry that Gerald actually treated you like that!” Hayley also replied.
Jacelyn hurriedly asked, “Hey! Hey! What are you guys talking about? Why can’t I understand what you are saying at all? Why is
Gerald a scumbag?”

“Jacelyn, are you pretending, or did you truly lose your memory?” Hayley and the others asked worriedly.
After that, they told Jacelyn about everything that had happened before.
“Ahh? I don’t believe it. I can’t believe that Gerald would get together with someone else!” Jacelyn said as she shook her head
sharply.
As for Alice asking Jacelyn if she could remember who Jayden was, Jacelyn simply shook her head.
Moreover, Jacelyn did not know why, but she actually felt a little disgusted when she heard the name Jayden.
What was even stranger was the fact that she actually felt as though she was convincing herself that Gerald was the person she
was pursuing right now.
It was truly strange.
When everyone realized that Jacelyn did not want to talk about things that had happened just before this, everyone stopped
talking about it.
As for Alice, she was also a very smart person. She could tell that Jacelyn seemed to be feeling very affectionate toward Gerald
at this time.
This was because she could not stop herself from mentioning Gerald in every other sentence that she spoke. She even asked
everyone if they realized that Gerald was actually quite handsome.
Alice was even feeling a little jealous at this time.
It felt as though someone was boasting about how handsome her boyfriend was and how she wanted to get together with your
boyfriend in front of everyone else.
However, the worrying fact was that Gerald was not even Alice’s boyfriend at this time!
“Sigh. Why isn’t Gerald back yet? He said that he was going to buy me some apples. Shouldn’t he have already returned a long
time ago?”
Jacelyn already felt as though she was missing Gerald at this time. Thus, she tried to call him.
Alas, Gerald’s cell phone was already turned off.

What was happening?
Something must have happened!
In fact, this was because Gerald’s cell phone had already been smashed into pieces after falling to the ground.
Back to three seconds ago on Gerald’s end.
After going downstairs, Gerald went to the fruit stall.
After buying the apples, he was preparing to pay using his QR code.
At this time, a woman standing next to him accidentally hit his arm.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 280
He was not holding his cell phone firmly, and it fell to the ground with a bang, and his cell phone shattered immediately!
Gerald had already had this cell phone for more than two to three years, but he had always been very unwilling to change it.
At this moment, Gerald felt a little dumbfounded as he picked up the cell phone from the ground.
The woman hurriedly said, “I am sorry! I am really sorry, handsome! I did not mean it. I will compensate you for your cell phone!”
Gerald smiled slightly before he said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. I will just bring it to the shop to try and repair it. Eh?!”
However, Gerald was stunned as soon as he saw the woman standing before him.
The woman was also taken aback.
“It’s you?”
“Oh, it’s you!”
Both parties exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
The woman in front of Gerald looked to be about thirty years old. She was dressed very elegantly and she had long hair, fair
skin, a very good figure, and an exquisite face. She was definitely the kind of person who would make people turn their heads
around to take a second look at her when she walked on the street.

Moreover, there was also a young girl who was about four or five years old with her hair tied up in a bun standing next to her.
Both of them were the mother and little girl that Gerald had rescued by the river near the milk tea shop the other day.
Last time, when he went to buy milk tea with Mila, he had heard a cry for help and had hurried over to rescue the other party
immediately. Upon his return, Nigel had already had the opportunity to kidnap Mila!
Gerald had a very deep impression of this event.
“Look! It’s Uncle Hero! Mom, haven’t you been looking for Uncle Hero all this while?”
The young girl with her hair tied up in a bun said as she smiled.
She also ran over to Gerald and held his hand immediately.
Gerald had a very familiar and affectionate feeling when he saw the little girl, and he pinched the little girl’s face gently.
The woman smiled cordially and looked at Gerald as she said, “Young man, we are truly fated! I have been trying to look for you
after you saved Minnie. I wanted to find the opportunity to thank you specifically. However, I never expected to see you here
today!”
To be honest, this was the case with most women. They would always remember the person who offered them a helping hand
during their most critical moment.
This was exactly what this woman was feeling toward Gerald at this time. Moreover, she also felt very safe when she saw
Gerald’s kind appearance.
“Anyone in that situation would have done the same thing too! Madam, you don’t have to worry too much. Is your daughter called
Minnie? I am just glad that Minnie is fine!” Gerald replied as he smiled.
“Nevertheless, we have to thank you! My name is Wynn Thornton, and my daughter’s name is Minnie Tessa Thornton!” Wynn
straightened out her hair as she smiled and spoke to Gerald.
“My name is Gerald!”
“Gerald, you will not be able to leave today! Are you free now? If you are free, it is almost noon. Can I treat you to a meal, then?”

Wynn looked like the kind of woman who had already been in society for a long time. Moreover, she was very mature, and each
of her gestures and actions was all very charming.
“Uncle Gerald, please agree to my mom’s request! We can go to my house and eat together. My mom’s cooking is really very
delicious!” Minnie shook Gerald’s arm and pleaded profusely.
To be honest, he was actually free. However, Gerald really did not feel like going. After all, he felt that it was only right for him to
save a person who was in need. Why should he be treated to a meal?
However, Minnie was begging him to go now.
Gerald could not bear to disappoint Minnie. Thus, he nodded immediately.
“By the way, Miss Wynn, I just have to buy some fruits for a classmate of mine first!” At this time, Gerald suddenly remembered
Jacelyn.
“Boss! My phone is already broken so I cannot pay using the QR code now. I can only pay with cash.”
After he spoke, Gerald placed his hand into his pocket. However, he suddenly recalled that he had forgotten to take his wallet
and ID with him as he had left it behind in the Lamborghini because he had left in a hurry out of anger.
“Boss, how much is it in total? I will pay for it! Also, can you send someone to help me to deliver these fruits up to the ward later?
Just tell the patient that her classmate has gone out for a meal with his friend!” Wynn smiled and continued, “By the way, Gerald,
I will also have to buy a new cell phone for you!”
The reason why she said this was because she noticed that Gerald did not seem too anxious about the patient he was visiting.
This obviously meant that they did not share any special relationship at all.
Therefore, she decided to decide on his behalf.
In truth, Wynn’s decision made Gerald feel very comfortable and relieved.
Indeed, he did not feel like going back to the ward to see Jacelyn acting coquettishly toward him like a baby!
Minnie cheered happily as she held Gerald’s hand, “Yay! Uncle is coming to eat at my house!”
Minnie was very close and affectionate toward Gerald who had saved her life.

After getting into Wynn’s BMW 7 Series, Gerald saw Wynn’s business card in the car. He was really taken aback after seeing it.
Wynn was so young, but she was already the boss of a company!
