Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1192
Albert had a hint of contempt in his tone as he asked the question while looking at Gerald.
The butler’s disdain was warranted since unlike him and the other upper-class people at the ceremony, Gerald
stood out like a sore thumb in his commoner clothing.
“No, I do not. Regardless, I’m from Mayberry, and I’ve come here today to meet the young lady of the Smith family
and hand her an invitation card.”
“An invitation card? From whom?”
“I apologize, but I can’t tell you the details!” replied Gerald.
Gerald was only saying this according to how Riley had instructed him to. Even so, Gerald truly didn’t know who the
owner of the invitation card was. After all, not only was it unnecessary for him to pry, but he wasn’t interested in
finding out in the first place.
At that moment, Riley ran out before saying, “Let him in, Albert! As he’s said, he’s come all the way from Mayberry
so he must be here on a mission!”

“…Oh? Well, since you’re a friend of the Smith family, I suppose it’s fine. Let him in!” ordered Albert who naturally
needed to show respect due to the relationship between Cundrie and the young master.
With that said, Riley walked over to Gerald—making sure to make a face at him while sticking her tongue out—
before dragging him in.
Not long after, the scene slowly returned to its initial atmosphere.
Even so, Abner found himself looking at Gerald before grumbling, “Are we just supposed to let him off that lightly? I
find that difficult to bear!”
“Don’t be impatient! Worry not, for I’ve just made a call with some simple preparations in mind. Now that he’s
entered this place, I guarantee that he won’t be able to leave this hall alive!” replied Xyon, his ruthlessness
reflected in his eyes.
Hearing that, both Abner and the woman exchanged glances before looking at Xyon once more in admiration. After
all, both of them were well aware of how strategic he was.
True to Abner’s words, just as Mr. Snyder took in a deep breath—ready to begin the event—he was interrupted by a
group of over twenty people rushing into the hall from outside as they shouted, “Let us in! We must capture that
thief!”
While the group appeared to only consist of mere vendors, all of them had indignant expressions on their faces.
“What is the meaning of this!” shouted the bodyguards who were still trying to push the group back after failing to
deny them entry.
“What are you b*stards up to!” roared Mr. Snyder as his expression stiffened. His anger was warranted since
something like this was happening while several international big shots were present!
“We wish to meet Mr. Snyder! We want him to seek justice for us!” shouted the vendors as they continued trying to
barge further inside.
Upon hearing that, Mr. Snyder signaled for his subordinates to allow them in before sliding one hand in his pocket
and asking, “Justice? What sort of justice are you seeking? What’s the full story behind this ruckus?”
“You see, Mr. Snyder, we were just doing our businesses as usual when this person suddenly stopped by to steal our
things! As if that wasn’t enough, he even seriously hurt a few students from the kindergarten! After finding out that
he came all the way here to hide, we’d like to ask why you took such a thief in, Mr. Snyder!” replied one of the
vendors as all of the others—who had come with him—instantly began pointing angrily at Gerald.
Several of the big shots were now exchanging glances with each other after hearing all that.

“Yeah! Also, hurting kindergarten kids? How brutal and inhumane!”
Whispers discussing the situation soon filled the place as the crowd slowly grew more and more dissatisfied.
There was no need to doubt how genuine their claims were either. After all, over twenty people had rushed into this
place just to capture a single person! Everyone was now keen on finding out what Mr. Snyder—who was infamous
for having a bad temper—would do.
Knowing that his next action would make others judge his morality, Mr. Snyder was well aware that he needed to
perform well. With that in mind, he then glared daggers at Gerald before saying, “To think that you came over to
my family’s ceremony to hide after committing so many sins… Coming here after causing such a scene, I’ll have
you know that you’re definitely courting death!”
“He wasn’t the one who did it!” persuaded Riley who truly hadn’t expected the situation to get so fired up.
After so many people had stepped forward—claiming that Gerald was the perpetrator—Mr. Snyder’s slowly growing
murderous intent was only making her initial plans go more and more off course!
Gerald himself was now casually looking at the people who had called him out. Though they were all dressed up in
common clothes, all of them were a little too energetic to be simple vendors.
It was evident that all of them were proficient in martial arts. Taking a look at the father and son of the Gross family
—who were standing at the side—Gerald easily put two and two together.
