Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 707 Realizing that Gerald was ignoring her on purpose was the trigger to her anger.

‘Who do you think you are to just ignore me?’ Maia thought to herself.

“What do you want?”

Knowing that he had mixed feelings toward Maia, Gerald found that reason enough for him to ignoreher earlier. What more, he understood why she would be frustrated to see him, now that he was clearlywealthier than her.

He just couldn’t be bothered by her.

“So what if you’re a little rich now? Like that’s a good reason for you to ignore me! Anyway, I just wantto know where you got all that money from,” enquired Maia as she stared straight into Gerald’s eyes.

“Sorry, private information,” replied Gerald coldly.

“Private? Hah! You just earned a bit more cash, big deal! That still doesn’t change the fact that youwere a pauper in the past! I’ll be frank with you, Gerald! You’re at most an upstart, you got that? Andupstarts are infamously known for being arrogant pricks like you! Unlike Jamier and the others, youdefinitely lack maturity and stability!” huffed Maia, clearly not wanting to be outdone.novelbin

“Whatever you say. Speaking of which, Marven and I are planning on scouting for a nice place to startour new company. If there isn’t anything else, we’ll be off now!” said Gerald, shaking his head with asomber smile.

It wasn’t his first rodeo being insulted like this anyway.

‘Like her insults mean anything to me. It’s useless trying to explain anything to someone like her,’Gerald thought to himself.

“…Company? You’re starting a new company?” asked Maia.

It was extremely upsetting for her to see Gerald getting ahead in life. Even she wasn’t sure why she feltthis way, she simply did.

“Yeah! Gerald’s funding so that we can start a travel agency together!” added Marven rather excitedlyas he followed Gerald into the campus.

This wasn’t a lie either. Gerald had called Marven yesterday around noon just to discuss it.

Since Marven’s grandmother’s health had been deteriorating of late and his relationship with Raquelwas also in shambles, Marven had honestly been incredibly stressed. However, when Gerald steppedin to help him, Marven knew that he would soon be able to get through his tough times.

He had been extremely grateful to Gerald after receiving the offer to start a company together. While hehad seen Gerald as a close friend before, he now treated Gerald as though he was his real brother.

As the two walked further away, Warren looked extremely pissed. “What kind of luck does he evenhave?”

“Who knows? Still, even if he’s opening a company, he’ll be the only one funding it!” said Maia.

“You got that right. Humph! Just you wait and see. He’ll definitely use up all that money eventually.What else will he have then?” replied Warren, his tone sour.

“…Anyway, let’s stop talking about Gerald and get moving for now. The school’s organizing aTaekwondo competition, remember? Out of all the events in the school, this one caught my eye themost!” added Warren.

“Oh yeah, before you went to the police academy, you used to represent the seniors, right? Since youwere Sunnydale’s Taekwondo champion, you can definitely give your juniors some pointers afterwatching the competition!”

The group of five then entered the campus as well, casually chatting among themselves.

Meanwhile, Gerald and Marven had just signed their attendance in class. Seeing that they only hadideology class that morning, they decided to leave.

As they descended the stairs, Gerald thought about why he was so willing to help Marven out. Itprobably had something to do with how much he saw himself in Marven. What more, both of them hadgrown closer in the past few days, and Gerald now saw him as a brother as well.

Marven was an extremely filial person too, and Gerald was pleased by how much Marven loved bothhis parents and grandparents. Knowing how good a person Marven was, Gerald was more than happyto support him which led to his idea of forming a partnership for Marven’s new travel agency.

Besides, since it was mostly monetary issues, it wasn’t even that big of a deal for Gerald. He had themeans to help, so it was only right to do so for his brother.

Regardless, the first big step they had to do was to settle where the company would be located.
