Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1548

Fia—being someone with an extremely good family background—always had a sense of superiority over regular people. After hearing about Yosef’s family background, however, her eyes instantly lit up as she snuck a peek at Young Master Jenks.

After exchanging some simple pleasantries, Yosef found himself asking, “Speaking of which, Beau, what took you so long? Didn’t you promise to arrive a few days ago?”

“Ah, don’t even get me started on that… You see, throughout my absence, massive and rather drastic changes have taken place within Jenna City as well as Weston’s underground structure. With that in mind, I’ve been helping my father deal with the situation this entire time!” replied Beau.

“I think I heard some news about that as well… Sacrasolis Palace, right? Where did that large force even come from? According to what my father told me, several prestigious families and even a few underground forces in Yanam have already submitted to them! While I’ve been told that the palace master of the Sacrasolis Palace is a particularly vicious individual, rumor has it that by submitting to him, one’s family will definitely be protected and will cease to deteriorate for as long as a million years!”

said Yosef.

Due to their overwhelming wealth, it wasn’t uncommon for large families to be in contact with extraordinary people. While ordinary people may find it slightly preposterous for rich families to submit to more powerful families that belonged to certain sects, it was honestly just business as usual for the wealthy.

“Speaking of which, your father’s still in the Jenna Province, right, Beau? Has he managed to contact anyone from the Sacrasolis Palace?” asked Yosef.

Shaking his head, Beau then replied, “We never got the chance. After all, there were simply too many powerful families heading there to submit themselves to them at the time. Even so, it appears that the Palace Master of Sacrasolis Palace was already pretty rich in the first place. With that in mind, many of the families there apparently didn’t suit his tastes. From what I’ve heard, to get acquainted with them, one must first pass through a number of assessments!”

Hearing that, Fia simply shook her head slightly contemptuously before saying, “But of course mere merchant families like yours aren’t worthy of getting acquainted with the Sacrasolis Palace! Do you even know how powerful the palace master truly is? How could anyone just submit themselves to Mr.

Crawford like that?”

“…Oh? While we’re on the topic, I’ve heard that your family has a relationship with the Sacrasolis Palace… Does that mean that the palace master’s surname is Crawford? Also, have you met him in person?” asked Beau in a surprised tone.

“How in the world could I have met him before? Regardless, I’m extremely sure that he’s an immensely powerful and awe-worthy person. After all, even his subordinates are all smart and tough. I should know since some of them are well-acquainted with my grandpa!” replied Fia, slight regret reflected in her eyes.

Thinking back, her grandfather’s eyes had been filled with admiration and respect whenever he talked about Mr. Crawford to her…

Speaking of her grandfather, she remembered him advising her, ‘Remember to grab the chance when you see it!’ before the ships had even departed.

When she asked what ‘chance’ he was referring to, however, her grandfather was oddly unwilling to reveal anything beyond that no matter how much she asked.

‘Was grandpa trying to indicate this party or something…?’ Fia thought to herself as she allowed her gaze to fall on Yosef for a few more seconds.

In between laughs and chattering, they eventually arrived at the party’s venue…

Not long after everyone left the port, an odd-looking and ghostlike ship slowly began materializing out of the blue… Skimming across the sea’s surface, the mysterious passenger ship then swiftly approached the port… It was so quiet that nobody was even aware of its presence…

Once the ship docked, two women—bearing extraordinary temperaments and wearing white clothes—

slowly descended the ship… Due to the light veils covering their faces, anyone trying to see what they looked like would only be able to see blurry outlines.

“Was it really a good idea for us to have gone behind Sister Mila and come here, sister…? After all, the main reason we came to earth this time around is to execute that special mission, no…?” muttered one of the women in a worried tone as she curiously looked at all the different kinds of people in the distance.

“What are you even afraid of? Don’t worry, things are going to be fine! Look, lots of people are already there! Now let’s hurry over!”
