Chapter 1114
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1114 The sounds had come from the door smashing into pieces when the guestâs body collided with it! Even after that, the body continued flying until it hit a pillar, resulting in the pillar getting destroyed as well!
The guestâs path of destruction only halted once it struck a replica mountain that was located close to yet another destroyed door! By then, his twitching body was all bloody.
ââ¦W-what?â muttered everyone in unison.
Though they were all smiling earlier, all their expressions were now stiffened. To think that the young man had such ungodly strength!
After witnessing that, all the other Minshall family apprenticesâwho had earlier roared to have Gerald beaten upâtook turns retreating to the side.
ââ¦M-masters! Combine your forces and get him!â ordered Zoey, her slight fear evident in her voice.
She hadnât anticipated for any of this to happen!
Hearing that, the Minshall familyâs distinguished guestsâwho were all sitting at the end of the tableâ
exchanged glances with each other before quickly running over to surround Gerald!
Before they were able to attack, however, Gerald simply lifted a hand before flicking a finger onto a stone pillar beside him. After a split second of silence, blinding rays of light suddenly emitted from where he had flicked, andâafter an explosive soundâa hole soon appeared at the other end of the pillar as light shot out of it!
By that point, cracks that looked similar to spider webs had already formed on the pillar. Staring in horror, the masters watched as the entire pillar exploded before their very eyes! Most of the area was momentarily clouded in white debris, and when it finally cleared again, the masters could all be seen with both hands raised.
Utterly terrified, all of them kept their hands firmly in the air, not daring to even move an inch. If Gerald could do that to a pillar, all of them were too scared to even imagine what would happen if he used the same move on them.
The masters who recognized this level of power were even more terrified.
âThis power⦠This man is undoubtedly a great master!â
Seeing how terrified even the masters were, the other members of the Minshall family remained frozen in place as well, all of them terror-stricken.
With everyone seemingly petrified in fear, it made for a rather strange scene.
Gerald, however, didnât look too bothered about it as he walked over to the old master. Once he was in front of the old man, he placed the agreement formâthat he had preparedâin front of the old master before saying, âDo have a look at it first. If there arenât any further problems, just sign it! Then again, even if there are problems, you still have to do itâ¦â
Smiling âinnocentlyâ, Gerald then added, ââ¦Otherwise, Iâll kill everyone in the room!â
The old master instantly gulped as his heart continued beating wildly. Now drenched in cold sweat, the old man then said, ââ¦S-sir⦠Itâs my granddaughterâs fault for failing to realize how strong and influential you wereâ¦! On her behalf, I apologize for her infuriating you! Please accept my apology!â
âNo apologies needed. Regardless, youâll only have a few more seconds to consider. Once I finish this sentence, youâd better sign it immediately. Otherwise-â
âI-Iâll sign it! Iâll sign it right now!â nodded the old master, who was now feelingâaside from terrifiedâ
both remorseful and angry.
They had such a beautiful and enjoyable life before this⦠Why did they have to offend such a reckless and unreasonable person?! Just whyâ¦
ââ¦S-sir⦠Do understand that Iâll need at least two days to gather all the Minshall familyâs propertiesâ¦
Iâll prepare everything nicely by then so I hope you permit the slight delayâ¦â pleaded the distressed old man.
âIâm fine with that. Iâll come over and take everything at nine at night in two days! Once I return, youâll need to list out all the assets for me. Regardless, I still need to claim some interests first!â
ââ¦What do you fancyâ¦?â asked the old man as he gulped.
âIâve heard that the ancestors of the Minshall family once dug up and stole a pair of jade charms from the king of the oceanâs tomb!â replied Gerald.
ââ¦While itâs true that our ancestors had passed down the charms to our generation, believe me when I say that they were recently stolen by a woman! As a result, we currently donât have the charms-â
âI donât need them. What I want is the map you used to head to the king of the oceanâs palace!â
interrupted Gerald.
ââ¦H-huh?â replied the old man, his expression now displaying how nervous he was.
The map to the king of the oceanâs place was the Minshall familyâs most valuable heirloom. Several of their familyâs ancestors ended up losing their lives just to obtain it. The map alone could be considered to be the foundation of the Minshall familyâ¦
âIf you donât hand it over, Iâll just kill everyone!â said Gerald, his tone still as frigid as before.
Gerald was well aware that the Minshalls had always dealt with things unreasonably. As a result, he felt no need to beat around the bush with them.
