Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1032
âBring the Lovewell over!â ordered the young man as his frown deepened.
Hearing that, the manâs subordinates brought a severely injured Zander and Kaleb over to face him.
âAre you absolutely sure that you didnât lie when you said he was coming over to Everdare Forest?â
asked the young man.
âWhy would I even lie to you about such a thing, Mr. Moldell? He truly did say that he was headed to this place! Also, I do hope that you realize that it wasnât the Lovewells who killed the eight Moldell family members! Please keep that in mindâ¦!â replied Zander, a fearful expression on his face.
The young man who had been asking the questions went by the name of Yuvan Moldell, and he was the second son of the Moldell familyâs head. Zander himself had already heard tales about him long ago. Tales of how cold and ruthless that manâs methods were.
Being a businessman, Zander knew that he couldnât afford to further offend either Gerald or the Moldells. However, when the Moldells sent people over to investigate once they caught wind of the eight Moldell family membersâ deaths within the Lovewell Manor, he had no other choice but to truthfully tell them where Gerald was.
It was the reason why Yuvan and his subordinates were currently conducting their search for Gerald here.
âThe Moldells have always deeply resented Gerald, and itâs already been over a year since the Moldells have actively gone against the Crawfords. Therefore, I truly hope that youâre not lying to me for your sake. After all, it would be better for you not to get involved in our battle!â replied Yuvan casually.
âB-but of course, of course!â replied Zander hurriedly.
âSecond young master, we may have found traces of him!â reported one of Yuvanâs subordinates at that moment as he walked over to face the man.
Long story short, they had located a few corpses lying on the ground who were dressed like villagers from the foot of the mountain. What more, their corpses were still quite fresh and there were some signs of a struggle at the scene. They were also able to locate a faint trail of trampled greenery that led deeper into the forest.
All of a sudden, the search dogs that the Moldells had brought along with them suddenly began barking while facing a particular direction!
ââ¦Hmm? â¦There are people in the vicinity. If the dogs are barking, then he mustnât be too far off!
Double your search efforts!â ordered Yuvan.
Hearing that, his subordinates immediately obeyed.
âStill, I recall going to the Crawford familyâs mansion about a year ago⦠Back then, Gerald was still living there, and as far as I can remember, he was just a fragile young lad at the time! It truly makes one wonder what the boy had gone through during his year of absence. After all, he managed to kill Yaster and the seven other Moldells! A group of people who could be considered to be masters in our family! How could he have grown so strong to be able to defeat them so easily? How incredible!â said an old man who was walking behind Yuvan as he frowned.
âSo what if he managed to end Yasterâs life? After all, he has yet to face the true experts from our familyâ¦â replied Yuvan, a wry smile on his face.
It was a little while later when from within a valley that lay ahead, a person shouted, âWeâve found him!â
Upon hearing that, Yuvan hastened his steps as all of them arrived at a caveâs entrance. Beside it, was a large stone that must have been used to block anyone from entering.
Though one of Yuvanâs men was desperately holding onto his profusely bleeding neck as he lay on the ground, Yuvanâs full attention was on the pale and lifeless-looking man who was lying motionless inside the cave.
âI⦠Iâve finally found you, Gerald!â declared Yuvan as he knitted his brows before turning to look at his injured subordinate.
âWhatâs wrong with him?â
âHe was attacked by that fierce dog over there, second young master! Seeing that the dog serves as Geraldâs protector, Iâll kill it immediately!â explained Yuvan.
With that, the subordinate began approaching the puppy with a rope in hand. Upon managing to lasso the puppy, it immediately growled before barking wildly, all the fur on its body standing upright as though it was ready to launch an attack!
Hearing the fearsome barks, several of the subordinates couldnât help but back away from it. The puppy was so intimidating that some of the men even ended up messing up their pants!
ââ¦Hmm? Interesting⦠Donât kill it first. Bring it back to the Moldell Manor together with Gerald!â
ordered Yuvan when he saw his subordinatesâ reactions toward the puppy.
Obeying his orders, a few of the subordinates then began transferring Gerald out of the cave. After bringing him out, an old manâwho had been standing beside Yuvanâchecked Geraldâs pulse and upon realizing that it was very weak, he said, âDidnât everyone say that this lad was all-powerful and capable? He seems half-dead to me! Though thatâs honestly a good thing. Otherwise, heâd definitely try to escape again!â
His comment on Geraldâs situation clearly wasnât anything crucial. The old man had simply stated it without giving it much thought.
However, upon hearing that, Yuvan turned to coldly look at him before replying, âEscape? Heâs already in my hands now. Even if he were to wake up, do you honestly think he would be able to escape under my supervision?â
âN-not at all, second young master!â said the old man hurriedly.
Knowing that he had just dodged a bullet, the old man then lowered his gaze to look at Gerald again.
Though it only lasted for a split second, the old man was shocked when he saw a sudden flash of red on Geraldâs pale face as the subordinates began carrying him away.
