Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 322 However, if it was indeed true that Gerald was a powerful and influential man, they would prefer to dierather than accept that fact.

Cassandra recalled the time she had suffered terribly and had a restless night when she found herpower bank in Flynn’s car before.

“I was nervous back then and now that I think about it, I’m not too sure if I had called Gerald anymore…However, it is undeniable that the first contact number in my contact list is his. The second is mycousin’s, whom I called just this morning. If we’re talking about connections, it could be her. She worksas a vice president for an international trade enterprise so she would definitely know a lot of people,”said Naomi, careful with her words.

“That sounds much more logical. Your finger could have accidentally tapped her number. Followingthat, your cousin must have arranged for the rescue! Some of the guards here look like they could beSWAT cops while the others look like gangsters!” Cassandra said in a soft voice to them as sheanalyzed the members of their rescue team.

“Did we guess correctly, mister?” Felicity asked Leopold. They were quite sure that they had made theright conclusion.

However, Leopold’s face didn’t move a muscle. He simply opened the door of the Maybach which wasparked in front of the other cars. It was the same car which Gerald and Michael had arrived at thefactory with.

“It’s time to return to your college. Get in the car,” said Leopold.

“You’re avoiding our question… That must mean we guessed correctly!” Yvonne said happily.novelbin

“Mister, may I borrow your phone? I wish to call my cousin.” Yvonne’s confidence had assured Naomithat it was indeed her cousin who had saved them.

“Very well, Miss Milton,” said Leopold as he handed his phone to Naomi with utmost respect. All ofthem then entered the car.

“Hello? Cousin, is that you? This is Naomi. Were you the one who had orchestrated the rescuemission?”

“I wouldn’t say orchestrated but yes, I was the one who called the criminal investigation team. Havethey already saved you? They work really fast. I’m glad to hear that you’re fine. I had tried to call youback earlier but the line kept going to voicemail. So I called your counselor but that failed too. I beganto worry that something bad may have happened so I sent a message to your classmate, Gerald, tolook into the situation. He told me that you had been kidnapped!” Naomi’s cousin said nervously.

Wait… How did her cousin know about Gerald? Was it because she had that many connections?Actually, where had Gerald gotten the money to buy that phone and those clothes for Xavia before?Was it even possible to earn that much money through a part-time job alone?

Thinking back, it was Naomi who had asked her cousin to find a place for Gerald, Harper and theothers for their part-time jobs.

Sometime then, her cousin had occasionally made Gerald run errands for her. That was probably thereason why she had Gerald’s, Harper’s, and a few of her other friends’ contact numbers in the firstplace.

“I see… Well don’t worry, we’re fine now. They’re taking us back to the college at the moment.”

“That’s good to hear. Rest well, I’ll meet up with you tomorrow. You’re going for an internship soon soI’ll have to discuss the work details with you anyway.”

“Got it. Make sure you hit the hay soon too!”

Sitting so close to each other, the other girls were able to listen in to the entire conversation.

Putting two and two together, they eventually pieced the puzzle together.

It was indeed Gerald who had notified her about the kidnapping.

“That stupid Gerald! He knew we were being kidnapped but he didn’t do anything about it!”

“If Naomi’s cousin hadn’t called him, who knows what would have happened to us!”

“I’m going to strangle him to death once we return to college!” scowled Cassandra under her breath.

All of a sudden, Felicity yelped in pain. It seemed as though she had hurt herself somehow.

Biting her lower lip in pain, Felicity moved her hand beneath her to find whatever had hurt her butt.

She pulled out a small coat that had a phone inside it.

“I’m terribly sorry mister, I accidentally sat on your clothes!” said Felicity apologetically.

“…Hmm? This coat looks familiar…”

It took her a moment, but when she realized who it belonged to, Felicity was dumbfounded.
