Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 198
Who would have thought that Mr. Crawford would be here, hanging with this sort of crowd?

 

“Oh? Mr. Ziegler, you know this hobo, Gerard?” Murphy asked in surprise.

For some reason, when Yancy Ziegler greeted Gerard Crawford by name, Murphy and many of the other guys present at the scene were overcome with jealousy. How was it that Yancy knew that guy but not them?

“How the hell is it any of your business whom I happen to know? Get the hell out of my sight!” Hearing what Murphy had called Gerard, Yancy was roaring with rage.
