Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 25
“What?”
All of his classmates were startled.
Danny, who was taunting Gerald and standing at the front of the classroom, had an incredulous expression on his face at this time. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Why was Gerald so rich?
Cassandra also gasped in shocked and she felt a little out of breath at this time.
Even Xavia was shocked at this time.
This money…there was at least thirty thousand dollars there!
“Gerald, where did you get so much money?” Cassandra could not help but ask at this time.
“Yes, Gerald. I think there should be at least twenty or thirty thousand dollars there, right?”
The female students could not help asking.
“Well, yes, it is thirty thousand dollars. As for where it came from, it is because…I won the lottery!”
Gerald replied immediately.
He could not tell anyone that this was simply because his sister had set the limit for his bank account to a minimum of thirty thousand dollars per transaction because everyone would treat him as a fool…
Gerald did not like to show off his wealth unless he had no choice to do so, like he did today.
“You won the lottery?”
Gerald’s words caused quite a huge commotion among all his classmates.
Danny and Blondie looked like fools as they stood at the front of the classroom at this time.
They were initially planning to taunt and humiliate Gerald in front of their classmates but who would have expected Gerald to actually throw thirty thousand dollars in front of them just so they could count it?
Both of them felt very embarrassed.
They could only stand awkwardly in front of the classroom as it would be even more embarrassing for them to retreat now.
At this time, Xavia asked with a nervous expression on her face, “Gerald, how much did you win from the lottery?”
She was breathing very fast at this time.
She was afraid that Gerald would have won millions of dollars in the lottery. If that really happened, she would really want to jump off the building!
No! Absolutely not!
How could someone who was just dumped by her have such good luck?
No way!
Gerald smiled indifferently before he said, “Not much. Not that much!”
“How much is not much? Thirty thousand dollars?”
Cassandra asked as she looked at Gerald with a strange expression on her face.
“More than that…” Gerald simply replied.
What did that even mean?
All of Gerald’s classmates felt very anxious at this time because they wanted to know how much money Gerald had won. This was because all of them, including Cassandra, had always despised and looked down on Gerald. To them, Gerald had always been a pauper who deserved to be mocked and ridiculed.
However, now that he had won the lottery, his classmates’ self-esteem started to fall!
They were all envious and jealous of him!
“It should be easy for you to count one thousand five hundred dollars, right?”
Gerald said as he glanced coldly at Danny who was dumbfounded at this time.
He took out one thousand five hundred dollars from the pile of cash before he threw it in front of Cassandra.
After that, he turned around and faced his classmates as he said, “Which one of you would be willing to lend me your backpack today?”
Since he had already revealed his riches, Gerald no longer felt the need to act as pitiful and useless as he did before. He wanted to be a little more like Danny and Yuri, who could use money to their own advantage, and get people to work and butter up to him.
Therefore, Gerald decided to borrow a backpack to place his money in instead!
“Gerald, you can use my backpack!”
“Gerald, why don’t you take my backpack instead? I don’t really need it today.”
“Gerald, Gerald…”
At this time, all of his classmates quickly called him by name because they wanted to offer Gerald their backpacks.
In the end, Gerald simply borrowed one of his classmate’s backpack.
After that, he placed the remaining twenty-eight thousand five hundred dollars into the backpack.
“Why are you sucking up to him? He only has thirty thousand dollars anyway! Moreover, he even has to pay by cash! He’s nothing but a nouveau riche.”
Danny and Blondie said in a vicious manner.
Xavia looked at Gerald with an extremely uncomfortable look on her face. She wanted to talk to Gerald but she felt very embarrassed.
She did not know what to do.
If she had broken up with Gerald just a few days later, she knew that he would have spent the thirty thousand dollars on her without any hesitation at all!
“Gerald, you’re so lucky. Moreover, it seems as though you’re really popular among your classmates! All of them are offering to lend you their backpacks! Since you’re already rich now, don’t you think you should treat your classmates to a meal?”
At this time, Cassandra, who was standing at the front of the classroom, suddenly spoke in a bitter manner.
“Yes! Gerald, you have thirty thousand dollars in cash! You should treat all of us to a nice dinner!”
