Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 448

"Be honest with me... Is it because of Hayward?"

Gerald didn't need to be a rocket scientist to figure that one out. He sighed.

People wouldn't treat you well without a reason. Gerald knew this as a fact since there were no such things as free lunches in this world!

"Bingo! I just need you to act a little so that I can slightly provoke him! If he takes the bait, he'll definitely change his mind soon enough! Hayward's a very petty and narcissistic person so he'll definitely never be able to accept that I'm going out with someone more outstanding than he is!" replied Lilian with a smile on her face.

Gerald sighed as he replied, "Then rather than provoke him, I think he'll only end up laughing at you if we go along with this plan... I'm nowhere near as outstanding as he is... His family is developing Yorknorth Mountain and he even has a shop there! He's lightyears better than me!" lied Gerald as naturally as he breathed.

"Of course I know that, which is why I specified the word, 'act'! Let me tell you something, Gerald, did you know that Hayward's always been rather sensitive whenever it came to you? Not only did you have an ambiguous relationship with that b*tch- I mean Sharon in the past, but you've also put him in tough and awkward situations for quite a few times now! If you change your identity and appear before him, then he'll definitely feel jealous! Consequently, since I'll be pretending to be your date, he'll surely regret not choosing me in the first place! That's why I feel that you're the perfect candidate for this task!" replied Lilian confidently.

It was her friend who had given her this idea earlier. Though Gerald wasn't really a rich and young heir, he could definitely play the part!

"Hold up, change my identity? Elaborate on that please," said Gerald in confusion.

"Oh that, it's simple, really. All you need to do is pretend that you've become filthy rich by winning the lottery! By saying that, in a way, you'll be even wealthier than Hayward! Can you drive? I've rented a luxury car for you to help keep the illusion up. As long as you're willing to act according to how my friend and I have planned, I'll definitely be able to give Hayward a tight slap on his face tomorrow!"

"I'll owe you one if you help me, Gerald. I've also already rented the car so please agree to my request!" pleaded Lilian.

It seemed that Lilian was really going the extra mile just to regain Hayward's love and attention.

Knowing how much this meant to her, Gerald found it hard to turn down her request.

He had initially planned to say goodbye to Giya tomorrow and drive her back to Serene County since his car would be due by then.

However, it seemed that his plans would have to be delayed for another day.

"Alright fine, I'm in," said Gerald as he nodded.

"Yes!" said Lilian as she smiled excitedly.

"I am curious though, how are you so certain that we'll be able to meet Hayward tomorrow?"

"Oh, we definitely will! You don't have to worry about that. You just need to meet up with me at the hospital's entrance tomorrow. I'll pick you up there!" Once he finished eating, he left the cafeteria with Lilian. Lilian looked much more energized now and it seemed like her fever had subsided.

Gerald couldn't help but think that this was the power of love. Could love really make a girl go crazy?

Then again, since it was Lilian he was talking about, it could also possibly just be the power of money. Gerald simply sighed.

After the two parted ways, Gerald went back to Giya and fed her the porridge.

Nothing notable happened for the rest of that day.

Early the next morning, Gerald waited for Lilian at the park next to the hospital as they had previously agreed to meet there.

He didn't have to wait long when a brand-new dazzling white Mercedes Benz G500 drove over and stopped in front of Gerald.

When the car window was rolled down, Gerald saw that both Lilian and her friend were inside.

"I really wasn't expecting you to be this punctual! Alright, get in! We're bringing you to a hairstylist next!" said Lilian.

"Hey, Hey! Snap out of it, Gerald! Are you shocked because you're looking at such a luxurious car? Get in already! You're in for a treat today because you'll get to ride in a Mercedes Benz G500 today!" Gerald rubbed his temple as he shook his head.

Of course he would be shocked! After all, this Mercedes Benz G500 felt way too familiar...
