Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 944

Realizing that Harper’s clients were here, Gerald nudged his head toward the two new faces as he looked at Harper, clearly signaling him to deal with his work first.

As Gerald turned to leave, however, he was shocked when he realized who the man and woman were.

As it turned out, they were none other than Raquel and her boyfriend, Jefferson!

Back when he was still in a pitiful state over half a year ago, he remembered how Raquel had humiliated him when he was still working in the construction zone.

“D*mn! Is that really you, Gerald?” exclaimed Raquel as she crossed her arms before flashing a cold smile at him.

“Oh? Are you familiar with Chairman Quelch and Chairman Brown, Gerald? Haha! Chairman Brown’s in charge of a large company here! I’m currently negotiating a project with them!” explained Harper.

“We’re acquainted, yes,” replied Gerald with a subtle nod.

“Humph! Pretending that we barely know each other, Gerald? As if you’d ever be able to forget about me! After all, I was the one who paid you your salary back when you were part-timing at that construction zone!” sneered Raquel.

Hearing that, Gerald only took a brief glance at her.

From what Marven had told him before, she wasn’t always like this. However, her personality changed rapidly for the worse as she got older.

“I do wonder if there’s been some sort of misunderstanding between both of you, Chairman Quelch.

After all, he’s a good friend of mine and I know for a fact that he’s a good person,” defended Harper when he saw how ruthlessly Raquel was mocking Gerald.

“Oh? He’s your friend you say? Well then, I’m sorry to announce that whatever you’ve negotiated with my husband’s uncle will now officially be terminated, Mr. Sullivan! I’m sure you agree with the project’s cancellation too, don’t you dear?” stated Raquel as she clung onto her boyfriend’s arm.

“But of course!”

“Chairman Quelch, you…”

Though he wanted to say something, Harper was left completely speechless. To think that all the effort he had spent there throughout the week was now gone, just like that.

At that moment, a staff member entered the building and started shouting rather unceremoniously.

“Whoever owns the car with the registration number of ***Province, drive it away, right this instant! If nobody moves it soon, then I’m calling someone over to tow it away!”

As the staff member continued shouting for the owner of the car, it was instantly made clear to everyone foreign to the city that the people living here didn’t have the same sort of courtesy one would expect to see from someone living elsewhere within the country.

The way things worked here, if an argument took place, having fights was only the natural response.

“The hell? I made sure to park my car well! What’s the big idea?” shouted Jefferson coldly in reply.

“What do you mean what’s wrong? It’s blocked the road! Get out there and move it immediately else I’ll have it towed!” retorted the staff member rudely.

Not wanting to be humiliated in front of Raquel and especially not in front of Gerald and Harper, Jefferson replied, “Hey now, my uncle is Graham Worton! His nickname is Boss Gram, you know?!”

“I don’t know who the fck Boss Gram or Grey or whatever his name is! Just drive the dmned car away already!” scolded the staff member impatiently.

The staff member’s response momentarily stunned Raquel’s boyfriend. After a brief moment of awkward silence, he then said, “Fine! I’d like to see who I’m blocking as well!”

Not wanting to be outdone, he then held on to Raquel’s hand as both of them left the premise.

Even though they were no longer in the shop, Jefferson could still be heard shouting, “Just so you know, I’ll be calling my uncle immediately as well! How absolutely baffling that people who don’t want to pay him any respect exist!”

Meanwhile, Yukie ran over to Gerald before saying, “Here, I’ve bought a shirt for you, sir!”

Nodding toward her, Gerald then turned to look at Harper before saying, “Not to worry, Harper. I’ll contact you in a few days, so just wait for my call.”

After saying that, Gerald then left together with Yuki.
