Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 555 “I’m sorry, Gerald…” said both of them simultaneously. The two girls bore expressions filled withembarrassment and regret.

“That’s quite alright!” replied Gerald as he gave a gentle smile. Though he was still being nice to them,all three of them knew that their friendship could never truly properly be mended. What’s done wasdone, and they could never go back to the way things had originally been. Gerald would only treat themas acquaintances now. Nothing more.

Both Sharon and Xella understood what Gerald was implying. The two knew that they couldn’t justrewind time to fix all their mistakes, and simply understanding that made them feel like their heartswere being pierced by thousands of needles. If only they were still friends, this reunion could havegone so much better.

Not wanting to prolong the awkwardness any further, Gerald decided to head back since it was gettinglate anyway. For all he knew, that psycho Queenie had probably gone home. Gerald really didn’t havethe energy to walk all the way back, so he simply used one of the company’s Audi A6 cars to drivehome.

Just as he got to the entrance, Gerald bumped into yet another acquaintance. She was holding on toher purse and it seemed like she was waiting for a cab.

It was Michelle. Since Gerald hadn’t bothered to wind the car’s window up, Michelle managed to catcha glimpse of him as he was about to drive out.

“Gerald?” called Michelle out to him.

Gerald didn’t like ignoring people, but he really wished he could just leave at that moment.novelbin

He wasn’t really fond of this person. After all, she had openly expressed her dislike toward him. Sheeven had her own sister substitute her for her blind date with him! He treated this as a direct insult,which was why Gerald didn’t intend to speak to her this entire time.

“What do you want?” asked Gerald coldly as Michelle came closer to the car.

“Ah, well, I just wanted to thank you for today! If it wasn’t for you, we may not have gotten out of thatsituation unharmed! The other girls that came with me were my colleagues and some of them havealready gone home,” replied Michelle. Gerald noticed another shorter girl standing beside her as shesaid that.

“There’s no need to thank me. If I were to have any say in this, I wouldn’t have let any of you in in thefirst place. It was Jarvis who did!” said Gerald coldly again.

‘It’s unnecessary at this point to show her any kindness.’ Gerald thought to himself.

His words were so blunt that her face instantly turned red with embarrassment.

She knew that the blind date incident had ruined their relationship before it even had a chance to start.She understood very well that she had crossed the line, but she wasn’t willing to just leave it at that.

Michelle had initially not wanted to go through this embarrassment.

After all, it was fine to just remain as strangers and never speak to each other again. Wasn’t that whatshe had preferred all along?

However, after that incident in the restaurant, she couldn’t just leave it at that. Just like everyone else,she just couldn’t bear seeing him make such an immense comeback.

‘You’re nothing more but of the many guys that I’ve rejected.’ This was what she thought.

If Gerald had remained the way she had initially thought of him, she wouldn’t have had such a bigreaction. To think that this ‘optional’ man turned out to be this powerful! This made her extremely upset,especially when he didn’t even seem to want to talk to her. He just went straight for the entrance withhis Audi!

“I’d… I’d like to apologize for… You know…. Alright, I know I was wrong for flaking on you!” saidMichelle as she bit down hard on her lower lip.

“There’s no need for an apology. To be frank, I only see you as an acquaintance, so if there’s nothingelse, I’ll be heading off now!” said Gerald dismissively as he immediately drove off.

Michelle was now terribly upset and angry. This was the first time she had ever been ignored by a guy.She felt her eyes start to water. Not only did he turn out to be extremely powerful, but he barely battedan eyelid when he ignored her and just drove away.

It wasn’t long before Gerald passed both Toiun and Fuenti.
