Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1428
Zack had initially thought that though Gerald had managed to find out about his true identity on his own, it’d still take quite a while for him to complete the transition. After all, Mr. Crawford had been raised in poverty for as long as he lived!

With that in mind, Zack had prepared himself to be greeted by a rather embarrassed, and honest Mr. Crawford. Now that Gerald was before him, however, he could’ve never expected him to be someone so driven and courageous. What more, Gerald had a rather strong pressuring aura surrounding him at all times!

While it wasn’t aimed at anyone in particular, it was enough to make those surrounding Gerald feel that it was hard to breathe.

“Bingo. Also, I don’t just want you to buy it for me, but I also need you to hire an engineering team to begin excavating Mountain Top. Immediately. Let’s just say that there’s a massive boulder inside that’s extremely useful to me… Regardless, you’ll have six days to complete your task. Is there anything else you’d like to ask?” instructed Gerald.

“…N-not at all… I’ll get it done immediately!” replied Zack.

Though he had initially thought about asking Gerald about his motive, he quickly retracted his words before they were able to leave his mouth. At the end of the day, Zack was an experienced man who knew what he should question and what he shouldn’t.

Now that Gerald had made all the appropriate arrangements, Gerald simply needed to wait for the next few days.

With Gerald now obtaining a bit of free time till then, he found himself thinking that he wasn’t going to have another shot at traveling to the past once all this was over. With that in mind, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make up for all the regrets that Mila had throughout her time with him.

Though Gerald had constantly told Mila that he would make her the happiest woman in the world once they got married, he never really managed to achieve that. After all, she had gone missing before he could properly give her anything.

Due to that, Gerald didn’t even care if both of them weren’t a couple yet at this point in time. Couple or not, he was going to make sure that he made her feel extremely happy and blissful throughout their six short days together.

With that in mind, Gerald then returned to the milk tea shop on campus before ordering, “Boss, I’d like a cup of milk tea!”

“…You… You still haven’t had enough? Do you even have the money for it? Are you trying to give me more trouble?” muttered the slightly worried boss.

Hearing that, Gerald simply fished out a hundred-dollar banknote before placing it in front of the boss.

“Keep the change!”

Eyes-widened, the shocked boss then replied, “…Did… Did you steal this…?”

“While it’s true that your milk tea is delicious, you truly spout a bit too much nonsense… Just hurry up!” muttered Gerald, feeling speechless.

“I owed you a cup of milk tea, so I’m returning it to you now!”

Hearing that, howls and gasps of surprise began coming from the rest of Mila’s classmates! Was the pauper actually trying to get the beauty?

Everyone felt that the dramatic scene unfolding before their very eyes was simply unreal!

“…T-there’s no need to return it to me…! Regardless, you should hurry and leave first…!” replied Mila who had been caught completely off guard by all this. Seeing her all dazed, the rest of the male students in her class instantly shot dirty glances at Gerald.

“Oh, but before I do, know that I still owe you two other things! While I don’t know when I’ll be able to return them to you, I’ll eventually fulfill both wishes!” declared Gerald in a serious tone.

“W-what other two things…?” asked Mila meekly.

“First off, I owe you a promise! Secondly, my heart!”
