Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 583

"I-I don't know where she is! She only came to the school to visit me once. Other than that, we've only communicated through the phone!" cried out Natasha.

"Call her then!" ordered Gerald.

He had to meet up and deal with Xavia as soon as he could. Gerald couldn't have her troubling him all the time.

'If I've done anything wrong to you, take your revenge on me! Your mistake was hurting those close to me,' Gerald thought to himself. He just couldn't stand people like that.

As Natasha reached for her phone, she kept signaling to her subordinates-using her eyes-to take down Gerald and the duo. However, none of the guards even dared to move. They all knew how strong Gerald's people were so they didn't do anything. Only people like Scorpion would be able to deal with Tyson and Drake.

Understanding that they weren't going to act, Natasha could only hand over her phone to Gerald in defeat.

Gerald quickly found Xavia's number and called her. He soon found out, however, that Xavia's phone had been turned off. "Why is her phone turned off?"

"H-how should I know?"

"If you aren't going to be honest with me, maybe this will make you more willing to comply. Tyson!"

"Yes, Mr. Crawford!" He then pulled out another silver needle and brought it close to her neck.

"W-wait!" At that moment, Natasha began crying before she said, "I-I'm telling the truth! That really is my sister's number!" replied Natasha between wails.

No matter how much Tyson threatened to bring the needle closer to her, she kept repeating the same thing.

Tyson looked at Gerald. Gerald frowned before waving his hand. Tyson then immediately let go of her after seeing the gesture.

Gerald was just trying to scare her into telling the truth, but apparently she hadn't lied in the first place. Even if he really wanted to beat Natasha up, he knew he could never bring himself to actually do it. After all, he was the reason why Xavia dropped out. It was the only reason why he had taken the slap earlier. He saw it as returning a favor to Xavia.

Knowing that it was no use staying here, Gerald continued to frown as he walked out of the room.

"Mr. Crawford, what should we do with these people?" asked Drake as he pointed at the bodies lying on the ground.

Gerald simply nodded before leaving.

A second later, horrible shrieks could be heard coming from inside the room. Those guards had no right to be begging for their lives.

Walking over to the bar, Gerald ordered a beer. He was deep in thought, wondering how he should deal with Xavia.

When Gerald turned to look to his side, he was surprised. Sitting beside him was a girl, sipping on her champagne.

He considered talking to her, but eventually chose not to.

However, his curiosity got the better of him and he ended up looking at her again, just to check if she was really the person he thought she was. Much to her annoyance, the girl noticed his second glance and turned to look at him as well.

This resulted in both of them staring at each other in shock.

"

....Gerald?"

"Maia?"

At that moment, both of them simultaneously called out each other's names.

"Why are you here?" asked Maia.

"I just came for a drink. What a coincidence!" replied Gerald, still feeling surprised.

Maia was Gerald's acquaintance from high school. However, the two of them never shared the same class, so how did they end up getting to know each other?

Well, since Gerald's grades had always been extraordinary during his high school days, he had often gone for competitions with a team representing the school.

Back then, Gerald was always happy when he got a chance to participate in competitions since he would be able to somewhat gain a sense of honor. Aside from that, he would also be able to eat good food and stay in fancy places.

The team consisted of 24 people, with twelve being male and the other twelve female. Maia was on the team as well, and her main role was the team captain.
