Chapter 1325
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1325 âHow unexpected for a greenhorn like you to have achieved such immense inner strength!â said one of the masters. All three of them had looks of disbelief and bitter smiles on their faces as they stared at Seamus whose entire body seemed to be steaming with excess heat.
Though Seamus was now panting slightly, it was obvious that he had persevered well in his fight.
Knowing that, he then cockily said, âI hope you now understand what my father and second uncle had meant! Just surrender already so that lives can be spared! Let this be a warning that if I have to continue fighting, I wonât be holding back anymore! Understand that our visit today is solely aimed at Rupert! If you donât wish to die, then step aside!â
Hearing that, all three of the masters could only sigh. Barely any fighting spirit left in them, they were well aware that if they were unable to take down Seamus even after combining all three of their efforts, then they could certainly forget about ever being Bradleyâs opponent.
Seeing that, Rupert and everyone else from the King Valley felt as though they had hit rock bottom.
Understanding that there was no longer anything to lose, Rupert glared daggers at the Fairleighs before shouting angrily, âDo it!â
Upon hearing the command, two gunmen instantly revealed themselves from behind the courtyardâs many rocks! Both of them had been hired with massive sums of money, and they had each claimed to be gods of marksmanship. With that in mind, Rupert had placed them as his last line of defense.
Regardless, just as both of them were about to open fire, Bradley suddenly used his inner strength to lift two stones off the ground before launching them directly at the two gunmen! The stones themselves hit each of them right between their eyebrows, causing both of them to scream in unison as they fell to the ground!
Up till this point, the Fairleighs had only made their appearance for about ten minutes. Despite that being the case, many of Rupertâs more capable men were already seriously wounded and down for the count. Though he still had about a hundred and fifty bodyguards at his command, Rupert knew better than to increase the casualties for the sake of it. From what he could tell, the only ones left who were capable of momentarily holding their ground were himself and a few other elders. However, that was about it.
As he pondered his next step, Bradley suddenly shouted, âStep back, Seamus. Iâll be taking over from here!â
With a frosty glare, Bradley then slowlyâand menacinglyâbegan walking toward Rupert.
At that moment, both Fleur and Yenny ran up to the squareâutterly panicked and surprised by the huge mess they were currently witnessingâas they shouted, âFatherâ¦!â
By this point, Rupertâs face had gone completely pale. With trembling legs, he then slowly turned to look at his two beautiful daughters⦠Though he clenched his fists tightly as he tried his hardest to resist, in the end, he knew he had to do it.
ââ¦Say⦠Bradley, Hershel⦠Quite honestly, we never really resented you back then⦠It was a blessing, really, that your ancestors managed to learn the art of pill-making from our King Valley. After all, it eventually led to the creation of Fairleigh Valley! Regardless, Iâve always had a hunch that Seamus was interested in our Fleur⦠What say you to us turning this enmity into friendshipâ¦?â
âHah! You really think my nephew likes your Fleur? Letâs cut the bullsh*t and just let me kill you already!
Once thatâs done, Iâll just take your daughter so that my nephew can satisfy his urges!â scoffed Bradley, not even worried about filtering his words anymore as he began walking menacingly toward Rupert.
From what everyone could see, his murderous intent was already overflowing by this point.
At that moment, Myles rushed over to stand before Rupert while shouting, âMaster!â
However, the second he got there, Bradley simply smacked his hand against Mylesâs shoulder, causing him to crumble to the ground, completely unable to stand!
Patting Rupertâs face with the back of his hand, Bradleyâwho was now standing right in front of the manâthen said, âYou know, once youâre out of the picture, Rupert, Fairleigh Valley will finally be able to take what weâve always wanted. With that in mind, did you honestly think that we would even need to covet to your petty bargain?â
âB-Brother Bradley, I admit to my faultsâ¦! I was blind back then, so please forgive meâ¦! Before you do anything rash, please remember that your ancestors were only able to make their fortune because of the King Valley! With that in mind, you canât just wipe out the roots of your forefathersâ¦!â pleaded Rupert. Now that he had nobody else supporting him, the trembling Rupert knew that he was no different than an ordinary man.
A split second later, Rupertâs right cheek was immediately greeted by a slap!
ââCanât just wipe out the roots of our ancestors?â You talk as though youâre even worthy to call yourself that! Iâll say it now that to me, killing you is as easy as squashing a bug! Regardless, once Fairleigh Valley takes over the King Valleyâs industry, Iâm sure the other valleys wonât have anything to say about it, am I correct?â
âY-yes! Itâs as you said! With that in mind, please spare my life, Brother Bradley!â begged Rupert who simply couldnât bear the pressure of death anymore. He was so terrified, in fact, that he immediately knelt before his daughters and everyone else with a loud âthudâ before hugging onto Bradleyâs legs and bumping his forehead onto them.
Regardless of how much of a bigshot he was, he was only human and still feared death. He had only persevered for so long since he had tasted power and wealth before. In other words, he had been more afraid of losing his material belongings than death up till this point.
Watching as his former enemy knelt and begged like a dog, Bradley instantly laughed triumphantly, his dissatisfactionâthat he had held in his heart for over ten yearsâseemingly slowly dissipating.
As for the three masters from before, they could only hold onto their chests, unable to advance nor retreat. Sighing internally, all three of them simultaneously thought, âToday truly has been a mistakeâ¦
Weâve now lost everythingâ¦â
Looking at how pitiful the once majestic boss of Sunhill Rise currently was, everyoneâs hearts felt extremely bitter. After all, no matter how much he knelt or begged for mercy, that man was still their lord.
âM-Master, you mustnât do thisâ¦! Kneeling today will only make you the joke of the other valleys as well as our international businessman customers!â said Myles, his eyes reddened.
