Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 23
After returning to the dormitory, Alice and the other girls still felt very unpleasant and surprised.
If Gerald was really poor and if he had won hundreds of thousands of dollars from the lottery, they would not feel so
uncomfortable.
However, he was actually able to buy such an expensive limited edition luxury bag and he could even afford to treat them to a
meal at the most expensive spot in the manor.
Moreover, when it came to the oil painting, Gerald could actually persuade Zack to let the matter go just like that.
How was that possible?
“Alice, what do you think of the incident today?”
Alice was sitting on her bed as she listened to Jacelyn, who was removing her makeup at this time.
After that, she frowned before she said, “I don’t know. Perhaps we’re overthinking this. Didn’t Hayley already call Harper to ask
and confirm the situation with him? After all, the only reason why Zack is treating Gerald so well is because Gerald saved his
daughter’s life!”
“I guess Zack is just trying to come up with a reason just so Gerald wouldn’t feel too embarrassed about the oil painting. After all,
Gerald saved his daughter’s life and that must’ve been a big deal to him.”
Alice felt much better as she thought about this reason.
“Well, I guess that makes sense. I actually thought Gerald was a rich man now! That really scared me to death!” Jacelyn said as
she let out a long sigh.
“What? You aren’t calling him Brother Gerald anymore?”
The other girls started laughing among themselves.
“Who’s addressing him in that endearing manner? If he could actually ask Mr. Lyle to give me a good position in any of his
businesses in the future, I’ll definitely refer to him that way! At least I wouldn’t have any worries in life at all.”

“Gerald is really lucky. I guess Mr. Lyle would regard the incident today as though he had already repaid Gerald for everything
that he had done for his family.”
The girls continued gossiping among themselves.
Alice felt very relieved when she heard what they said. After all, the more Gerald had to suffer, the more relaxed she felt.
It was a strange feeling.
Meanwhile, Gerald did not think too much about this matter at all.
After returning to the dormitory, Gerald and his roommates fell asleep very quickly as they were exhausted after playing and
spending the whole day outside.
The next day, it was time for them to go to class.
At this time, Gerald saw Harper and the other boys writing their names on their checks.
When Gerald read the messages in his group chat, he realized that it was time for them to pay their tuition fees.
“Gerald, are you going to wait for the subsidy that you’ll be receiving in two weeks’ time before you pay your tuition fees, or do
you have any other way to pay it off?”
In fact, Harper wanted to ask Gerald if Mr. Lyle had given him some money to pay his tuition fees.
However, when he thought about the oil painting last night, Harper did not bother to ask that question anymore.
He was afraid that Gerald would be a pauper again today.
Gerald smiled before he said, “It’s okay. I still have some money left in my bank account and it should be enough to cover my
tuition fees. By the way, I’ll go to the classroom a little later because I’ll have to withdraw some cash from the bank!”
Harper could tell that Gerald was not lying. Gerald might actually have some money left to pay for his tuition fees. With this,
Harper felt much more relieved.
At this time, Gerald arrived at the bank in front of the university campus.
“I’d like to withdraw one thousand five hundred dollars!” Gerald replied as he passed his bank card to the banker.

The banker inside was a little taken aback.
After checking Gerald’s bank card, she looked at Gerald before looking at the bank card in her hand.
After that, she finally asked Gerald in surprise, “What happened to your bank card? Why did you make so many changes to your
bank account?”
There were changes to his bank account?
Gerald was also startled at this time.
In fact, the female banker felt that Gerald was just an ordinary student with no money at all because of the way he was dressed.
Therefore, she spoke to him in a rather impolite and impatient manner.
However, only some of the top customers in the bank could make such changes to their bank account.
At this time, she quickly explained, “Yes, there has been a major change in your bank account. The minimum withdrawal amount
for your bank account is now thirty thousand dollars! You cannot withdraw just one thousand five hundred dollars.”
The female banker looked Gerald up and down.
No matter how much she looked at him, this student did not look like he was a wealthy person.
Who made the changes to his bank account?
Gerald knew who had made that change to his bank account.
He knew it right away.
Who else could it be, apart from his sister Jessica?
He really could not understand his sister at all. He was not the type to spend so much money but now, his sister was setting a
minimum limit for the amount of cash that he had to withdraw from the bank! She wanted him to live like a second-generation
rich kid!
At this time, he took out his cell phone to make a phone call.
The person that he was calling answered the phone right away.

“Sister, were you the one who made the adjustments to my bank account?”
“Yes, I was the one who adjusted and set the minimum withdrawal limit. I know how you’ve been living and I want you to live like
a second-generation rich kid now instead of acting and living as though you are still a pauper! I want you to slowly adapt to your
new status so you can get a foothold in our family in future!”
Gerald was dumbstruck.
“By the way, I would have called you even if you did not call me today. Changing the minimum withdrawal limit for your bank
account is not the only thing I did. Do you remember the Universal Global Supreme Shopper’s Card that I gave to you?”
“There is about one and a half million dollars left in the card. I’ve set the expiry date for the money for the end of the month. If
you don’t spend the money in the card by the end of the month, then the money in the card will just go to waste!”
“What?”
Gerald’s eyes widened in shock.
Too ruthless!
This was too cruel.
She was forcing him to live like a second-generation rich kid.
“You’d better get used to your new status and life as soon as possible. Otherwise, your parents and I will have to worry about
how we can finally get you out of the shadow of poverty every day...”
After that, Jessica hung up the phone immediately.
“What’s wrong with you? Are you withdrawing the money or not? Can you stop delaying and wasting our time?”
Unknowingly, there was already a queue behind Gerald and there were about five or six students waiting behind him because
they wanted to withdraw money too.
The person who just spoke was a boy who was well-dressed and he had his arms around a beautiful girl as he glared at Gerald
with contempt.

Today was the day of their tuition fee payment.
Therefore, it was not surprising that many students were here at the bank to withdraw money to pay for their tuition fees.
When the boy saw how Gerald was dressed and when he saw him talking on the phone for so long, he assumed that Gerald had
no money left in his bank account and that was why he had no choice but to call home to ask for money.
“Oh, so did you manage to get your family to put together some money for you? Do you know that all of us are already late for
class because of you?”
At this time, the girl in the boy’s arm spoke as she glared at Gerald.
“Alright then, I will withdraw the minimum amount.”
When Gerald saw the long queue behind him, he quickly spoke to the female banker.
