Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1237

The atmosphere at Noelle’s birthday banquet changed as soon as Gerald arrived. This was especially so for Gracie’s

emotions. It would not be an exaggeration to describe that all of her menopausal symptoms for the next thirty

years of her life had an outbreak at this exact moment.

Anyone could tell that her daughter, Noelle, had a very unusual relationship with this young man. As a person who

had already gone through all of these experiences before, Gracie could tell that her daughter seemed to be

interested in this young man.

However, Noelle was very indifferent toward Preston. If Gracie allowed this to develop any further, it would certainly

be very troublesome if Preston was offended.

Under this kind of situation, as Noelle’s mother, Gracie could not just let this pass without coming up with a solution.

She could not simply continue watching as her daughter took one step after the other into an abyss, right?!

Therefore, Gracie was in a foul mood, and she was very unfriendly toward Gerald during the banquet.

“Your wagyu steak is here!”

At this time, the dishes were finally served.

The waiter also brought the main dish, which was the highlight of the birthday

banquet today, into the room.

After that, the manager also followed the waiter into the room.

The manager was a middle-aged man. In order to show his respect for Preston, he had decided to come here

personally to serve the meal and explain it in detail to them.

It could even be said that he was actually giving the Shadwell family a lot of face.

Gracie truly felt that she really had a lot of face.

Gerald had already eaten in many restaurants in Mayberry City before. In fact, he had already long heard that the

wagyu steak at the Longthorne International Hotel was very famous, but Gerald had never tried it because he

hadn’t been here before. This was also the first time that he had ever tried this dish.

“Sir, do you know anything about this dish?”

As Gerald was about to taste the dish, the manager exchanged glances with Preston before he suddenly

interrupted Gerald with a cold expression on his face.

“Oh! I don’t really know much about it!” Gerald replied as he shook his head.

“Hmph. You look like you come from the countryside, right? Is this your first time coming to the Longthorne

International Hotel?” The manager said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Everyone present, including a few of the girls, could not help but put their chopsticks down at this time. It was

obvious that the manager was saying these words because he was targeting Gerald.

“What do you mean by that? Even if this is my first time here, did I do anything wrong?” Gerald could also sense the

hint of sarcasm in his words, and he instantly raised his head to look at the manager.

“Our wagyu steak is usually eaten by our most prestigious and precious guests at this hotel. It would be a complete

waste for someone like you, who obviously has not seen much of the world, to eat this wagyu steak! Men, come

and take this dish away from him!” The manager said lightly, with his hands behind his back.

“Who gave you the rights to do so?!”

A look of anger and resentment flashed through Noelle’s face at this time. This manager did not only look down on

people, but he had no respect for others at all.

How could she possibly know that this was all Preston’s deliberate arrangement?

As the young master of the Wake family, Preston had a very influential status in this place.

The manager knew this very well too. He knew that his career and business path would certainly go smoothly in the

future if he favored Preston. Also, he would be able to build up a good relationship with Preston if he were to

humiliate this young lad here today. Therefore, how could the manager possibly let go of such a wonderful

opportunity?!

At this time, Preston merely smiled coldly as he stared at the scene before him.

“Wait a minute!”

Gerald put down his utensils.

After that, he looked at the manager, who had a smug look on his face, as he sneered and said, “You are opening

an establishment to run a business, so you cannot go overboard. This is the foundation of the business industry. It is

your duty to treat each and every customer equally and with respect. This is also the virtue and duty of every

businessman. So, Mr. Manager, don’t you think that you are taking things a little too far?”

“Pfft! Young lad, do I look like I need you to teach me a lesson? You look so poor! Everyone here is definitely worthy

enough to eat the food in our hotel. You are the only person who is not worthy at all! In truth, the only reason why I

did not kick you out of this place is simply because I am giving Mr. Wake and Miss Noelle face! You are actually

trying to talk back and educate me here?! You should take a piss and look at your own reflection first!” The

manager said coldly.

He said everything that he wanted to with those few words, and this was exactly what Preston wanted to see.

You brat! You want to play with me? How are you ever going to fight against me?!

“Men, come! Where are the security guards? Drive this person, who does not know his own place, out of our hotel

now! I also want you guys to put a sign in front of the hotel stating that this kind of worthless trash is not allowed to

step into our hotel in the future!” The manager yelled to his men outside.

Not long after that, about four to five security guards rushed into the private room, almost as though they had

already been on standby.
