Gerald was helpless. If he did not say anything to clarify the situation, this woman would continue nagging him until she died. Therefore, he decided to carry on with his lie.
"You won the lottery? How much did you win?" Whitney asked in a hurry.
She felt that Gerald was not acting himself at all. First of all, he was being too generous. The deposit that he paid for the three tables alone was five thousand dollars! Moreover, he would also have to fork out money for drinks tonight. After all, this restaurant was famous for their wine and liquors. This way, Gerald would have to pay tens of thousands of dollars for dinner tonight.
In other words, Gerald must have won more than thirty thousand dollars. No, he must have at least fifty thousand dollars or more! Otherwise, he could not possibly be so arrogant!
"Uh…not much, not much."
After that, Gerald closed his backpack before he turned around to leave immediately.
Why did he have to reveal so much to Whitney?
Anyway, he did not want anything to do with her at all.
"What? So, he just won the lottery? What's the big deal? He can't even be compared to the rich second generation anyway."
When he saw the arrogant expression on Gerald's face and how uncomfortable Whitney felt, Victor spoke up immediately.
"Whitney, what is the point of getting angry at someone like him? When I return to the university later, I'll ask Danny and his friends to take care of this arrogant kid!" Victor said coldly.
"Yes! Isn't it just tens of thousands of dollars anyway? Why is he acting so arrogant?"
Whitney's friends also chimed in at this time.
After that, Whitney made up her mind. She had to get to the bottom of this matter and find out how much money Gerald had actually won from the lottery!

She felt so anxious right now!
However, Gerald had already taken a taxi back to their university.
During their classes in the afternoon, Gerald was very happy because the look of contempt that his classmates previously had for him had completely disappeared. In fact, there were still a number of people who were jealous of him.
"Gerald, what place did you book for dinner tonight? Is it an ordinary small restaurant?"
As soon as classes ended, Danny and Blondie went over to Gerald as they asked him with a sly smile on their faces.
At this time, most of his classmates looked at Gerald out of curiosity.
Gerald smiled before he replied, "Well, since this is the first time that I'd be treating all my classmates to dinner, I've already booked three tables at Homeland Kitchen tonight."
"What? Homeland Kitchen?"
Danny was stunned and all of Gerald's classmates also cast shocked glances in Gerald's direction.
"Gerald, are you talking about the Homeland Kitchen restaurant on Mayberry Commercial Street?" Xavia asked in a cold manner as she walked towards Gerald.
Homeland Restaurant was a luxurious restaurant that would easily cost more than a few thousand dollars per head, without any drinks.
If Gerald had only won thirty thousand dollars from the lottery, he would have to spend almost all that money just to buy his classmates a meal tonight.
Even though Xavia had already broken up with Gerald, she felt very distressed for the way that he would be spending that thirty thousand dollars.
She was not feeling sorry for Gerald but she wanted Gerald to spend that money on her instead. She felt as uncomfortable as she had when Gerald was buying the Hermes bag that cost him fifty five thousand dollars!
In her opinion, she felt that Gerald should spend all of that money on her!
"Yes, that's the restaurant that I am talking about," Gerald replied as he smiled.
"Damn it. You're a lunatic!" Xavia roared as she glared at Gerald.
"Hahaha. Gerald is just being generous towards his friends. By the way, Gerald, are we allowed to bring our boyfriend or girlfriend with us tonight?"
Even though Danny was pretending to be very respectful, he could not hide the contempt he was feeling in his heart.
Harper stood up at this time before he said, "Danny, aren't you ashamed of yourself? How could you actually have the audacity to show up at the dinner tonight after the way you've treated Gerald this whole time?"
"Harper, Gerald is treating all of us to dinner tonight. Since he's won the lottery, we're all also feeling very happy for him. So, how could we possibly not show up for the dinner tonight?"
Danny smiled satirically.
At this time, Gerald replied in a helpless manner, "Sure, you can come along if you want to. You can also bring your girlfriends along with you."
Gerald knew what Danny was planning to do but he could not be bothered at all.
All the boys and girls in the classroom were very excited at this time.
When Xavia saw Gerald's indifference and how he did not seem to care about the money at all, she could not help but feel very upset. She was initially planning to take Gerald's money from him!
However, Gerald was even more hateful!
She would do as he pleased then. She would ask Yuri to come along with her tonight so he could eat as much delicious food and drink as much wine and liquor as he could!
Xavia pondered to herself.
Was that what Danny meant anyway?
After that, someone naturally informed Yuri about the dinner tonight.
Moreover, Cassandra had also decided to attend the dinner. She even drove Danny and his friends along with her.
At this time, Gerald and Harper also went to the restaurant by a taxi.
"Oh my! Gerald really booked a room at Homeland Kitchen!"
Danny was really surprised. However, this was exactly what he planned for.
"Mr. Crawford, I'm afraid that the original three tables you've booked wouldn't be enough to accommodate all of you. I think you have to add on at least another table," the female manager hurriedly said when she saw the crowd of people in the lobby.
"Alright then. I will add on another table!" Gerald replied immediately. This was the first time that he had really spent so lavishly after becoming part of the rich second generation.
"Wait a minute! Gerald, if we are really going to add another table, don't you think you should also book another luxurious private room since our class representative is here?" Danny smiled as he asked Gerald at this time.
"Yes, since our class representative is here, how could you possibly expect her to share the same room as the other students?"
Danny and his friends started booing Gerald at this time.
Cassandra simply stood at the side as she crossed her arms in front of her chest because she wanted to see how Gerald would reply. Meanwhile, Harper was standing beside Gerald and he would have attacked Danny if the class representative was not around.
Gerald did not reply.
At this time, Yuri sneered before he laughed and said, "Well, I also think that you should add on another luxurious private room, Gerald. If you feel reluctant to spend so much money tonight, then I can just pay for the additional luxurious private room for the class representative. What do you think?"
Yuri sneered. In fact, he was just trying to humiliate Danny as much as he could. After booking the private room, he would make sure that he ordered more food and wine there so that Gerald would have to pay a lot more for the final bill tonight. Most importantly, Yuri said that because he wanted to show that he was capable and wealthy.
Sure enough, at this time, Cassandra looked at Yuri with a look of appreciation on her face. Xavia also felt very proud of Yuri at this moment. After all, Gerald had always been nothing but a pauper!
Just look at Yuri. This was what a real second-generation rich kid was like!
"Another luxurious private room? If that is what you really want, then I am fine with paying for it," Gerald replied as he smiled faintly. Since Yuri wanted to do this, he could do whatever he wanted to. Anyway, Gerald owned this restaurant…
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 29
After that, Gerald added the luxury private room that was worth more than two thousand five hundred dollars per head.
Those who could be in the luxurious private room were naturally the most popular students in the classroom—Danny, Xavia, Yuri, Cassandra, Gerald and his roommates, and last but not least, Naomi.
The other students could only head to the other private room.
"Yuri, since we're already in this super luxurious private room, who would place the order for food today?" Gerald asked as he smiled at this time.
"Don't you have any manners at all? Yuri is our guest today so it is only natural for him to order what he wants to eat first! Why? Are you afraid that Yuri will order too much and you won't be able to afford to pay for dinner tonight?" Xavia suddenly said in a contemptuous manner.
Of course, Yuri had to order some food first. Otherwise, Xavia was afraid that Gerald would only order spicy and sour potato shreds.
If that was really the case, then their plan to spend all of Gerald's money would not work at all.
In fact, when they were in Yuri's car on the way to the restaurant, they had already discussed this matter with Danny and the other boys.
They were planning to make Gerald pay more than tens of thousands of dollars for the dinner tonight.
After that, they had to make sure that he spent an additional ten thousand dollars at least. They wanted Gerald to pay at least twenty thousand dollars or more for the dinner tonight. Moreover, Yuri had already decided to combine forces and financial resources with Danny to defeat Gerald tonight.
That would be more than enough!
"Alright then. Just order whatever you want to!" Gerald replied as he smiled bitterly.
Harper, who was sitting at the side, kept nudging Gerald to remind him of the situation but Gerald simply shook his head, motioning for them not to worry about him because he knew what he was doing.
"Alright then, thank you!"
Yuri took the menu in his hand before he started looking at the menu from the last page.
After all, Homeland Kitchen's signature dishes were all listed on the last few pages of the menu and these were the more expensive dishes.
"The Australian big lobster! The Australian abalone!"
Danny and the rest of the boys observed the expression on Gerald's face as Yuri continued ordering some of the signature dishes. They wanted to see the anxious and tangled expression on his face.
However, Gerald was still indifferent and he showed no fear on his face at all.
Even though Yuri was ordering the food at this time, he was still calculating in his heart.
After all, he only had three thousand to four thousand dollars left for the month and Danny only had one thousand five hundred dollars. That meant that they only had a total of five thousand five hundred dollars to splurge today.
In other words, they had to make sure that they did not spend more than ten thousand dollars today.
Otherwise they would really be embarrassed when they couldn't afford to settle the bill.
Yuri ordered some of the famous signature dishes from the last few pages of the menu.
After doing the math, he realized that the four dishes that he ordered would already amount to four thousand five hundred dollars, excluding the cost of wine and liquor.
After that, Yuri handed the menu over to Gerald with a cold expression on his face.
Even though he was going to spend a lot of money here today, he was more than willing to do so because he wanted Gerald to spend all the money that he had here today. Otherwise, he would feel very uncomfortable.
"What? You only ordered four of the signature dishes from the last few pages of the menu? That would only cost around three thousand dollars!"
Gerald laughed out loud at this time.
"What do you mean by that? You can pick more of the signature dishes if you want to. Anyway, you can never compare to Yuri no matter what you do!"
Xavia was extremely dissatisfied when she saw Gerald mocking Yuri.
At this time, Cassandra, who was on her cell phone, could only shake her head slightly as she listened in on the conversation.
She thought that Gerald was really stupid. How could he possibly compare and compete with someone like Yuri when he only had that small sum of money that he had won from the lottery?
"Waitress, how many signature dishes are there on the menu?" Gerald looked at the waitress as he smiled.
"Sir, there are a total of twenty signature dishes on the menu and all of these are the top dishes in Homeland Kitchen. Only the wealthiest people can usually afford to order four of these signature dishes at one go! The price of these four dishes already amount to around four to five thousand dollars. What ordinary dishes would you like to add on to your order?"
"Oh, so that is it?"
Gerald closed the menu immediately.
