Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1252

Undoubtedly shocked by Yana’s claim, everyone turned to look at her in disbelief.

“Don’t buy into his act, everyone! I, for one, know for a fact that this isn’t the real Mr. Crawford! His name is Gerald and he comes from some village in Serene County! He was also an extremely poor loser back when he was young! If you need proof, I’ll get someone to find his photograph in the past, right this instant! All of you will surely believe me after that!”

The photograph she was referring to was a group photo that had been snapped while they were still schooling together. Yana had a habit of keeping photos of herself, and it wasn’t long before one of her men brought that exact photo over.

Showing it to everyone, they all saw that the photograph truly did show a young Gerald in it!

“So he really is Miss Shute’s primary school classmate! What more, he was wearing such shabby clothes back then!”

As everyone remained momentarily shocked, Georgia laughed loudly before saying, “My, my, Serenity!

It’s beyond my expectations that you’d actually stoop so low! You were so full of energy back then… I’m well aware that you’re sad that Mila’s gone missing. What more, the real Mr. Crawford probably doesn’t even care about any of the Smiths anymore! While I get that you desperately wish to gain respect in the business field again—since you’re so helpless now—there’s a limit to how low you should go, you know? We’re already this old, Serenity. Was there truly a need to pull off such a dirty trick?”

Hearing that, the guests immediately grew scornful. Those who had initially been trying to toast and get close to Gavin quickly began leaving in disdain, their smiles instantly turning into frowns.

“Impersonating? Stooping this low? Georgia, you’d best watch your mouth! I don’t know what you’re thinking, but he truly is the real Mr. Crawford!” retorted Serenity.

“You’re still being stubborn now? Look, I’m fine with the idea of you hiring someone to impersonate Mr.

Crawford, just to gain a little respect. However, you should’ve at least hired someone who’s as handsome as my grandson-in-law! Why’d you have to get someone who looks like this?” said Georgia as she laughed aloud.

“Grandma’s right! Did you honestly think that hiring such a poor loser was a good idea? He barely even gives off the aura of someone as powerful as Mr. Crawford! Still, Mila this, Mila that… All you Smiths ever talk about is Mila! To think that you’re all still hoping for Mr. Crawford to give two hoots about you even after she’s been missing for so long! Do all of you think that Mila’s a fairy or something?” added Yana, hints of jealousy in her voice. After all, her husband had once proposed to Mila as well.

“I don’t know what’s gotten into you, but you’d best not talk about Mila like that, Yana!” growled Gerald.

“Hah! You may not want me to do so, but I’m doing it anyway! Both the old and the young from the Smiths are shameless! To think that all of you would dare find such a poor loser to impersonate Mr.

Crawford! Are all of you that keen on disgusting us?!” scowled Yana as she turned to glare at Rita.

Rita herself got up in a rage and retorted, “The hell are you calling shameless? You’re the shameless one!”

With that, she walked over to Yana and pushed her slightly for verbally abusing her family so much!

Of course, Yana had never been treated this way, and the young lady was quickly filled with immense rage. Raisin her hand to slap Rita, Gerald quickly stepped in and grabbed onto Yana’s wrist before shaking her off!

“You… How dare you hurt me?!” roared Yana, her eyes widened so much that they looked like they were going to pop out at any second.

“How extremely daring you are, Gerald… Who the hell do you even think you are?! You’re just some loser impersonating Mr. Crawford! Do you actually think you’re him now?!”

‘If I had been humiliated by a powerful person, I’d certainly feel honored! However, since such a lousy person like you is doing it, the humiliation is twofold!’ Yana thought to herself as she continued seething in rage.

Nobody there had thought that the country boy would actually dare to treat Yana like that!

“Harm you? I was merely protecting Rita. Also, don’t you think you’ve crossed the line a bit too much today, Yana? Don’t you plan on leaving some leeway for yourself? I’ll have you know that I won’t let anyone do anything to those from the Smith family as long as I stand here today. Speak rudely one more time and I won’t hesitate to beat you up for real!” growled Gerald.

“Hahaha! You’re still pretending? What a joke! You’ve already hurt me yet you say you’re still going to beat me up even further? I’d like to see you try-”

Before her sentence could even end, a loud slapping sound could be heard.

Everyone there knew the kind of person Yana’s father was, and it was exactly because of that, that all of them were now completely stupefied.

Looking like a madwoman, Yana shouted, “You… You dare?! You f*cking beggar! You actually dared to slap me?! It’s all over for you! Guards! Get in here right this instant! I want all of you to beat him up till he’s nothing but pulp! If anything happens my uncle will take care of it!”

Following that, a group of security guards quickly surrounded Gerald, each of them holding onto batons.

Yana herself was now cupping her hurt cheek as she glared daggers at Gerald. It almost seemed as though she wasn’t going to be able to release all her resentment until both of Gerald’s legs were broken today.
