Chapter 1113
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1113 It was now extremely late at night and a cool ocean breeze blew across Halimark City.
Despite the time, the Minshall family manor was still brightly lit. Inside, all of them were having a family meeting.
âYou did a truly swell job today, Zoey! Now that we have these herbs, we can continue refining the eternal pellet!â declared the old master of the Minshall family. Though he looked to be over ninety, he still looked quite strong for his age.
âYou living to be over a hundred would already be a blessing to me, grandpa!â replied Zoey with a wide smile on her face.
âHowever, what does deserve congratulating is the fact that I barely made any effort to obtain the herbs this time around! What more, I even earned three hundred million dollars from that idiot without having to lose anything!â added Zoey as she laughed out loud.
âAbout that⦠Itâd be best if you did less of this kind of thing in the future⦠Itâs not good for our familyâs good fortune⦠This applies to the rest of us here as well. Remember, Master Ghost calculated three years ago that the Minshalls could face some sort of disaster this year!â replied the old master with a slightly bitter smile.
âI know, grandpa⦠Speaking of that idiot, heâs just some foreigner yet he wanted to strike a deal with us in exchange for the herbs and the money! Haha! Now that I think about it, why donât I send someone over to capture him? By doing so, we can blackmail and drain more cash from him!â
âYouâre old enough to make your own decisions, Zoeyâ¦â replied the smiling old master as he shook his head in resignation.
The old master had already painstakingly managed his family for decades, and he had long lost any sort of fear for foreign forces. Due to that, his family members openly robbing others no longer surprised him.
At that moment, a servant walked in from outside. Carrying what looked to be some kind of document in his hands, he stopped before the old master before saying, âOld master!â
âWhat is it?â
âThereâs a young man waiting outside and he told me to present this documentâsigned by the young ladyâto you! He said that heâs here to claim what was agreed upon!â replied the servant.
âHumph! That fool! To think that he actually came over to us! Well thatâs even better then! We donât need to hunt him down now!â sneered Zoey.
Shaking his head with a smile, the old master then said, âRegardless, Iâm interested in seeing what he actually intends to take from usâ¦â
After picking the paper up and reading through it, however, the old masterâs eyes immediately widened, immense anger reflected in them!
Slamming the document onto a nearby table, he then shouted, âThat b*stard! Heâs courting death for sure!â
ââ¦Whatâs wrong, grandpa?â asked Zoey as she and several other members of the Minshall family looked curiously at the old man.
Rather than waiting for a reply, Zoey picked the document up for herself and looked at it. On it, Gerald had written âI wish to claim the entire Minshall family!â
âHumph! What an utter moron! Iâm afraid he truly is unaware of how strong the Minshalls are! To think he would dare ask for our family!â
âJust let him in! Weâll let him have a taste of our familyâs great power! We wonât allow this incident to just slide unless he coughs up a billion dollars!â roared one of the Minshall familyâs apprentices as many others began doing the same.
With everyone agreeing to do so, Gerald was soon led into the manor by the same servant from before.
He was greeted by the sight of all the Minshall family membersâalongside their guestsâseated on either side of the room, with everyone scanning Gerald from head to toe with contemptuous eyes.
âIs everything ready? If it is, then you can just sign here! Once Iâm done with my work tomorrow, Iâll call my family members over to take over your family!â said Gerald.
Hearing that, an exceptional-looking manâwho was one of the Minshall familyâs guestsâran up to Geraldâs back before shouting, âYou b*stard! Youâll have to get through me first!â
Immediately after, he grabbed onto Geraldâs shoulders with the intent of executing a shoulder throw.
Seeing how thin and weak Gerald looked, the man had no doubts that Gerald would be unable to withstand his attack.
To his surprise, no matter how hard he tried to lift Gerald, he simply couldnât make him budge at all!
Unwilling to give up, the guestâs face soon turned purple due to all the force he was exerting. Despite that, Gerald remained pinned to the ground!
âYouâre going to vomit blood if you continued doing that, you knowâ¦?â said Gerald.
âW-whatâ¦? The hell did you say?â replied the guest, stunned.
âYou know, I still donât know what youâre trying to do⦠Here, Iâll show you how itâs done!â said Gerald rather placidly as he grabbed onto the guestâs shoulders and instantly tossed him toward the door like he was nothing!
Crashing sounds ensued just seconds laterâ¦
