Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1355

Rushing to the door, the second Seth opened it, he was instantly greeted by the tip of a pistol being pointed at his

forehead!

Upon recovering from his shock, he slowly backed off as several guards—dressed in suits—quickly began exiting the

house together with Suri as well as Seth’s grandfather, both of them held at gunpoint.

“Nobody moves or I’ll shoot!” yelled a middle-aged man—who seemed to be the leader of the group—as over a

dozen more armed bodyguards rushed out from the woodshed behind the house.

Currently, everyone—who wasn’t a guard—had at least a few guns aimed at them, though Gerald was by far the

one being targeted the most.

Following that, the middle-aged man excitedly said, “For you to predict that Gerald would be here, you truly have

incredible foresight, eldest young lady! We’ve truly made a great achievement this time!”

At that moment, a young woman and man—who looked rather handsome—walked out and stood side by side,

smiling coldly as they looked at the scene before them.

“The honor of this success actually goes to Fernando here! After all, he was immediately able to guess who was

responsible for the deaths of all those Sime family bodyguards! Following that, we came all the way here to set up

an ambush for Gerald! To think that everything went according to plan! Hahaha! I’ll be reporting this to the Gunters

right this instant! We’ll definitely be given a lot of credit for our accomplishment this time!” scoffed the woman.

If it wasn’t obvious enough by this point, the woman in question was Matilda from the Sime family. As stated by

Matilda, the young man, on the other hand, was none other than Fernando, the captain of the Martial Arts

Association—who had attended a banquet together with Aiden and many others—and was publicly defeated by

Gerald at said banquet the other night.

From the looks of it, it seemed as though they hadn’t given up on looking for Gerald ever since that night.

Thankfully for the duo, it wasn’t long before they heard about the tragic deaths of several of the Sime family’s

subordinates. Being part of the Sime family, it was only natural for Matilda to investigate the matter. As for

Fernando—who had been recuperating in the Sime Manor—he simply went alongside Matilda to look into the case.

After realizing that only a top master could have killed this many of their guards so devastatingly, Fernando

immediately figured that aside from the Gunters, nobody else but Gerald could possibly possess such power in

Qerton City.

While he was initially slightly doubtful about his conclusion, he still continued digging for clues and eventually wound

up at Seth’s house. All that led to the current situation.

To his delight, his assumption had been correct! Gerald truly was here! From that, Fernando was able to confirm

that he truly was the one responsible for killing all those Sime family bodyguards.

“You flatter me, Matilda! If anyone’s to be praised, it should be you! After all, upon hearing my proposal, it was your

quick thinking that prompted us to set up this ambush in the first place! Without you, we wouldn’t have been able to

capture Gerald this easily!” replied Fernando, a wry smile on his face.

Following that, he glared at Gerald—who had caused his image to plummet the other night—before saying, “I bet

you never expected this, did you? To think that despite your immense power, you’d still end up falling right into our

hands! Keep in mind that dozens of armed men are pointing their guns at you now, so you’d best be on your best

behavior and obey anything we say! If you don’t, you better not blame us for killing you on the spot!”

“Speaking of which, I suggest that you don’t report anything to the Gunters for the time being, Matilda. After all, just

from how anxious they are to locate Gerald alone, you can tell how important he is to them! With that in mind,

should he get picked up by the Gunter family’s subordinates, there’s a high possibility that we won’t end up getting

anything despite all our efforts! Honestly, I believe that it would be wiser for us to directly meet the head of the

Gunter family in order to bargain Gerald with them! Should things go smoothly, we could even have the Gunters

teach us some of their secret techniques! If that truly happens, then my strength will definitely advance by leaps

and bounds by the end of the day! Nobody in the Martial Arts Association will ever come close to rivaling me

anymore!” added Fernando, his eyes filled with hope for that possible future.

“You’re absolutely right, Fernando! If we’re lucky, the Simes could get their hands on some of the Gunter family’s

assets! Who knows, the Simes could end up becoming the strongest and most influential family because of that! We

truly are killing two birds with one stone! What an amazing idea, Fernando! My admiration for you now is

boundless!” replied Matilda as she laughed joyously.

“Are both of you done chatting? Though you’ve said all that, it’s not like you’ve actually captured me or anything,

nor have you notified the Gunters about my presence. Also, are you really trying to threaten me with all those

toys?” said Gerald as he glanced coldly at all the men aiming at him.

From Gerald’s point of view, the guards were simply akin to children pointing toy guns at him.
