Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 969
His eyes stared coldly at the man as he asked the question.
With his keen ears, Gerald was able to hear how the person breathed from where he stood. Based on that alone,
Gerald could already tell that this was an extraordinary person.
Since the figure wasn’t replying, Gerald was about to consider his next move when all of a sudden, a few flashes of
lights flickered before him. The next thing he knew, four other similarly dressed men jumped out of nowhere and
they were now all standing before him!
Just like the person he had initially been chasing after, all four of the new hooded figures seemed to have skills and
abilities far higher than what he currently possessed.
‘Could it be the Moldells?’ Gerald thought to himself.
“There are two reasons why we have called you out today, Gerald!” announced the man who had led Gerald there.
From his voice, Gerald could guess that the person under the hood was a somewhat elderly man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“State them.”
“Before that, I hope you’re aware that the Crawford family’s name has been passed on for many, many years and
is widely associated with being distinguished and having great wealth. Know that as the young master of the
Crawford family, you’ve humiliated and ruined the Crawford family’s customary moral standards and their way of
life by agreeing to become a live-in son-in-law! Therefore, our first reason for calling you out today is to teach you a
lesson!”
“So you know my true identity… Based on what you’ve just said, can I at least confirm if you’re from the Moldell
family?” asked Gerald.
However, the man didn’t reply.
Instead, the man dashed forward and before Gerald could even react, the man was already right in front of him!
Immediately after, the man delivered two tight slaps to his face!
Once he recovered, Gerald instantly turned to look at his assailant. However, he was left shocked when he realized
that in just a blink of an eye, the old man had already returned to his original position!
Gerald barely had a fighting chance!
In his surprise, Gerald repeated his first question, “…Who… Who are all of you?”
“As for the second reason, I’ve received an order from our lord to bring you back to see him. However, I am aware
that the Ginseng King will be of great benefit to you. Because of that, I’ll leave the Mighty Four Kingsmen by your
side for now. Do note that they’ll take you away once ten days pass, whether you’re prepared or not.”
“The Mighty Four Kingsmen…?”
“That would be us!”
“During these ten days, all four of you are to stay by Gerald’s side and abide to all his orders. Regardless of whether
he gets his hands on the Ginseng King or not, once his ten days are up, all of you are to bring him back to our lord!”
instructed the old man in black.
“Affirmative!”
Upon hearing that, the old man nodded before turning around. However, before he could leave, Gerald shouted,
“Hold it! Who exactly is this lord you speak of?”
Since the corners of Gerald’s mouth were already bleeding due to the two slaps he had received earlier, he had
asked while cupping his cheeks.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You’ll know who he is once you meet him!” replied the old man before leaving immediately after.
…How very strange. Thinking about it, the strength and abilities of these men far exceeded what even the Moldells
were probably capable of. Could there truly be even stronger masters in this world who weren’t from the Moldell
family?
As Gerald speculated on, he thought about how great it would be if Finnley was by his side now. After all, Finnley
would definitely be able to estimate how strong these men truly were!
When Gerald tried questioning the Mighty Four Kingsmen to get further details, all they did was either nod or shake
their heads. It was clear that he wasn’t going to get any useful information from them, and this made Gerald feel
extremely helpless about the entire situation.
Understanding that he would only be able to know more about them once he met their lord, Gerald told them to
return to his manor to await further orders. After all, it wouldn’t be convenient for him to have them around since
he was still living in the Yowell family’s mansion.
Speaking of the Yowells, at that moment, Heidi had gathered all of her family members in the Yowell manor’s family
hall.
Noticing that Gerald wasn’t present and that Juliet herself seemed to be looking for him, Heidi then said, “Humph!
Well isn’t this perfect that he isn’t around! Maybe he’s already dead somewhere! Wherever he’s gone to, don’t ever
let me see him again! I just feel extremely annoyed and frustrated every time I think about his face! Regardless,
I’ve called all of you here today to announce something extremely important!”
