Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1423

Upon turning around, Gerald instantly saw a few tall, graceful, and well-dressed girls standing beforehim.

However, it was the girl standing right in front of the group who caused Gerald’s eyes to instantly wellup with tears.

It was Mila!

As he immediately began breathing rapidly, Gerald recalled how he had been extremely worried anddepressed just an hour ago. While it was true that he really wanted to meet up with Mila, he wasn’teven sure what kinds of emotions to present when he finally stood before her.

Since he hadn’t really figured how to deal with his emotions yet, now that Mila was suddenly beforehim, he instantly found his mind going completely blank.

Though he was now staring blankly at her, his mind was still able to register how beautiful, adorable,lovely, and kind-hearted she was!

While he was filled with adoration for her, Mila herself couldn’t help but feel slightly frightened when shesaw how Gerald was staring at her. While fear was her initial reaction, she couldn’t help but notice thatthere was some sort of inexplicable emotion reflected in his eyes.

The girls surrounding her clearly felt the same, and they instantly pulled her back as one of the girlswhispered, “Do you think that person is crazy, Mila?”

“I was just thinking the same thing! Just look at how he’s staring at her! Could Mila’s beauty havedriven him insane?” whispered another girl as all of them took turns staring at him in disgust.

Shortly after, another girl said, “…I think we should leave for now, Mila!”

After seeing how creepily Gerald was staring at her, all the girls had already lost interest in getting milktea. They simply wanted to drag her away from Gerald as soon as possible!

Hearing that, Mila quickly paid for Gerald’s drinks before turning to glance at Gerald who was stillstaring at her in a daze. Unable to stop herself from biting her red, lower lips, Mila’s friends were justabout to drag her away when Gerald suddenly shouted, “W-wait, Mila! Don’t go!”

Gerald didn’t even know what he was thinking, but the second he saw Mila about to leave, he instantlygrabbed onto her wrist.novelbin

He was truly terrified that Mila was going to leave him again. Once that happened, who knows howlong it’d take for him to meet her again? Hell, this could very well be the last time they ever met!

Whatever the case was, Mila was instantly taken aback by his action and screamed before shouting,“W-what are you doing?!”

Quite honestly, even though her roommates had all been disgusted by his earlier gaze, a voice in herheart had assured her that he didn’t have any malicious intentions at all. If anything, Mila was able todetect strong feelings of affection in his eyes!

Though her heart even began beating rapidly the second he held onto her wrist, she quickly snappedout of it and instinctively retracted her arm back in slight horror.

Why on earth was she feeling this way when she barely even knew who the person before her was…?

“…You… You sc*mbag! How dare you molest her?! You must be tired of living, aren’t you?!” shoutedMila’s friends as they instantly rushed forward to attack Gerald.

“I know right?! To think he’d take advantage of her when Mila even helped him pay for his drink! Don’tlet him off that easily, sisters!” shouted another girl as the group quickly encircled him.

Seeing that, Mila instantly shouted, “T-That’s quite enough! Let’s just go already…!”

Mila had a feeling that this boy didn’t have any malicious intent at all. With that said, instead of feelingcreeped out, she instead felt pitiful for him. Due to that, the soft-hearted girl quickly pulled herroommates away from Gerald while persuading them not to call the police.

Another reason she wanted to head off as soon as possible was because more and more people werealready gathering and pointing at them while whispering about what was going on!

As Mila and her friends began walking away, Gerald soon regained his senses as well when he sawMila’s slowly disappearing back.

…He… He was in the past now! Mila didn’t even know who he was yet at this point! Due to hisimpulsiveness, he had frightened her off!

He couldn’t help but sigh at his rashness. Still, Gerald now had a plan in mind…
