The Secretly Rich Man

Chapter 489

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 489 Jaxon’s respectful attitude toward Gerald surprised everyone.

This was especially so for Xella, who was now looking at Gerald with a completely different expressionon her face.

She had used to think that Gerald only had personal connections with average statused people. Tothink that he knew such a powerful and reputable individual as Jaxon!

What more, Jaxon had even taught the people who were planning to beat Gerald up a lesson. He didn’tgive them any face at all!

“What a great coincidence! If it weren’t for you, I would already have been beaten up!” said Gerald witha wry smile on his face.

He had seen through Waylon’s act. If his guess was correct, then everything that had happened wasorchestrated by Waylon. That was probably also the reason why both Waylon and Milo were laughingbetween themselves earlier.

Jaxon simply bowed slightly at Gerald’s comment.

What an awkward meal today… Gerald himself already felt full.

As for Francesca, after seeing Waylon getting beaten like that, she didn’t have the mood to continueeating anymore. With that, she decided to settle the bill first.

“Ah, Mr. Sanders, are you acquainted with Gerald? I’m the deputy director of X Bank. You seem likequite the capable man! Please don’t hesitate to contact me if any of your groups wish to use our bankfor your funding and capital flow!”

Francesca wasn’t going to let the chance to befriend Jaxon slip away that easily.

After all, she knew that Jaxon had the capability to make smaller subordinate companies use X Bankfor their cash flow.

Instead of discussing the matter with Francesca, he simply looked at Gerald to see his response.

Gerald simply nodded.

If Francesca hadn’t invited him to join them for lunch today, she may have been able to get throughwith her business negotiations with ease. Since her initial plan was disrupted because of him, Geraldthought that it would only be fair for him to help her out this time. This was the only reason why heagreed to it.

At that moment, they could hear Waylon and the group of people fighting again inside the room.

It was clear, however, that the people were beating Waylon up this time.

Though Warrick had planned to use Waylon to befriend Jaxon, he ended up unexpectedly offendinghim instead!

How could Warrick not be angry?

Waylon was now the group’s punching bag to release all their anger and frustration.

Gerald only sneered when he heard Waylon’s screams. In fact, he felt that they weren’t beating himhard enough.

Xella continued looking at Gerald, a complicated expression on her face.

When she saw that Gerald was only talking to Cindy and wasn’t paying her any attention, deep in herheart, Xella couldn’t help but feel slightly uncomfortable

And just like that, the meal was over.

Gerald went back to his hotel with Jaxon as the driver.

“Cindy, I can finally see why your grandfather told me that this young man’s identity wasn’t all thatsimple!” said Francesca after a while as she sighed.

While they were having dinner together last night, Cindy’s grandfather had emphasized that Geraldwasn’t as simple as he looked. She hadn’t thought much about it back then, but she could now seewhat he meant.

“I hadn’t expected him to be so powerful and well connected either! Actually, now that I think about it,mom! I finally understand what happened back when I was at the karaoke bar last time!” replied Cindyas she smacked her forehead with her palm.

Xella herself remained silent. She was waiting for the people inside to finish fighting before fishingWaylon out. She didn’t dare to go in at the moment, nor did she dare to stay alone. She was terrifiedthat Warrick and his men would also take their revenge on her.

Earlier, she had followed Gerald out quietly when she saw him leaving.

However, Gerald paid her no notice and simply left without saying another word.novelbin
