Chapter 410

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 410 Tammy’s car was a handsome Camry. The very first thing she said to him was, “Hmph! Gerald Crawford… to think that a bottom-feeder likeyou could snare yourself a goddess like Giya—what a dream come true for you!” “Yes! Yes, indeed!” Gerald nodded. “Huh? Tammy, this guy is Giya’s boyfriend? Ah… what is this world coming to?” Tammy’s cousinclutched her forehead, staggering in place. After all, anyone who knew Giya, knew that she was a beauty among beauties, a goddess amonggoddesses. No one would have expected her to find someone like this to be her boyfriend.

It seemed that Tammy and her cousin were of like mind. They stood there now, scowlingcontemptuously at Gerald. ‘Wipe those dirty looks off your faces!’ Gerald thought to himself. “Alright, that’s enough,” Giya cut in. “Oh, Tammy—didn’t you say you had a bunch of distant relativeshere in Serene County? Are they not joining us?” As she said this, she hugged Gerald’s arm tenderly… and also rolled her eyes at him, as though to say,‘There, you see! Everyone thinks you hit the jackpot, scoring a girlfriend like me! But some people don’tseem to appreciate their good fortune!’ “Oh, they’re coming. I just got off the phone with them—they were asking me where we’d be eating,you know? Gerald, what have you got planned for lunch?” Tammy’s tone was kind of sharp as sheposed this question, as though Gerald’s relationship with Giya came as some sort of affront to her. As though she held some sort of grudge against him. Indeed, Tammy didn’t hold Gerald in high regard. She grew up in the cosmopolitan city; he was acountry bumpkin. He was simple and poor, a lightning rod for ridicule. The thought of him becoming a mainstay of her inner circle… she just couldn’t stand it! With a grimace, Gerald replied, “On the subject of lunch… just leave that to me! There’s a decent placenovelbin

here in Serene County, called Mead Hall. Let’s eat over there!” “Hmph! You should have told us that earlier! Come on, Giya! We’ll go in my car!” And so they found their way to Mead Hall, the finest restaurant in Serene County, frequented mainly bythe rich and powerful. When they arrived, Tammy announced with a mysterious air that she needed to find a place to park hercar, and wanted Giya with her. Gerald was to go ahead and reserve a table for them. Since that had been his intention all along, anyway, Gerald went inside and asked for a table for eight.Rather than having any private dining rooms to offer them, all the patrons were seated in the sameenormous hall together. Just as a table was found for them… “Oh, gosh! Is that you, Gerald?” someone called out. “It really is him! What’s he doing in Mead Hall?” A group of young men and women, halfway through their own meal, exclaimed with surprise when theyspotted him. Gerald turned when he heard someone calling his name, and saw six or seven people sitting togetherover there. Not just anyone, either—they were his classmates from high school, including MorganaLopez and Cameron Laver. What a coincidence! Almost as though…
