Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1228

"Not at all" Gerald replied casually.

Although Maia wanted to say more to express her concerns, she simply could not force herself to say anything. After all, he had previously looked down on Gerald, even claiming that he would give them more trouble than help!

Well, to be more precise, she had not treated him seriously at all since the first time they met in high school. Even when they finally reunited at the bar years later and after Maia learned that she was very rich in Salford Province, she never took it seriously at all.

After all, Maia could not help but feel her heart pounding now that she was standing in front of this strange new Gerald. To be honest, he now had great admiration and respect for her deep in his heart.

Gerald himself barely felt the need to show off in front of Maia. After all, he did not need his admiration or respect to satisfy his arrogance.

Eliminating that thought, Gerald suddenly recalled something. Turning around, he saw—from a distance—that the two girls were still trembling in the car.

Back when he was on the roof of the car, he heard one of the girls screaming. Hearing that familiar voice, Gerald could immediately guess that Maverick must have kidnapped Yulisa and Noelle!

The fact that Gerald was previously able to sense the powerful yin energy coming from inside the car further reinforced his theory.

With that thought, he quickly headed to the car.

The girls themselves did not wear seat belts before, so—because the car stopped so suddenly—they were thrown forward, colliding with the back of the front seat! The two had never intended to bear such a huge impact, so it was no wonder why Yulisa and Noelle felt their bodies would be destroyed at any moment now.

By the time Gerald got close enough, he could see that Yulisa barely had the image of a young woman anymore as she continued to cry.

“Everything will be fine.. Now come out. You two!" gerald said as he could not help but wryly smile while looking at the two girls.

The bitterness in his smile, of course, stems from the fact that Gerald knew that everything that happened was not just a coincidence.

When it comes to impressing someone, nothing can exceed saving one's life. While Noelle previously hated Gerald, she now felt a little more affection for him.

The two victims were asked several questions from police before they were allowed to go and rest.

Since Aiden and the others were still busy with some things, Gerald did not ask him to accompany her back.

Instead, Gerald chose to send the two girls back to college on his own. This time, Noelle did not reject Gerald's offer. In fact, he accepted her invitation with pleasure.

Because Noelle looks a little haggard — because she, after all, suffered from her previous fear — Gerald knows better than to mention a refreshing drop of blood now.

After all, it would be bad if Noelle somehow assumed that she only saved him because she wanted to get his blood. It would definitely destroy his image of him for good.

As Gerald continued to think about it, he was a little surprised when Noelle suddenly looked at him before asking, “I… So I want to apologize and thank you also for saving us!”

Upon hearing that, Gerald actually felt that Aiden was quite impressive. After all, before Aiden left, he had told Gerald that Noelle would definitely apologize and express her gratitude to him sooner or later. According to Aiden, after Gerald answered with a few specific words—which Aiden then shared with Gerald—Gerald did not even need to ask for his contact number anymore.

Quickly repeating what Aiden had taught in his mind, Gerald then said, “Nothing. There's no need for you to thank me. Still, our meeting must be doomed as we continue to meet repeatedly. Maybe this is our destiny. Anyway, I'm glad I was able to save you today!

Watching Gerald then smile, Noelle found her breathing growing faster as she instantly started to blush a little.

The corner of her lips slowly curved upwards into a beautiful smile, she remained silent for a while before nodding and saying, “...Y-yeah, we'll come back first, then! The exclamation!"

Even though he said that, he did not move in the slightest, his eyes still fixed on Gerald's eyes.
