Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1552
ââ¦Could⦠I have heard wrongâ¦? Thereâs just no way, rightâ¦?â Giya thought to herself as she slowly looked around in disbelief, trying to find the source of that shout.
However, the second she saw him, she was so shocked that she felt that she was possibly still dreaming!
She wanted to say something, anything. But it felt like a lump in her throat was preventing her from saying a wordâ¦
As for Sia, she turned to look at Geraldâwho was already walking toward the stageâbefore shouting in surprise, âHuh? You⦠Know that woman, Gerald?â
âHah! I guess that loser was so entranced by her that he couldnât help but walk over! From the looks of it, he doesnât seem like the kind of person who has the money to buy her over through auctioning either!â scoffed Beau.
âWho exactly is he? How rude! If he ends up offending Young Master Turnbull, heâll definitely end up dead soon! With that said, letâs keep our distance from him!â muttered Yosef with a frown.
Though Sia wanted to at least try to stop the agitated Gerald, he had already made it to the stage by that point.
While everyone was holding their breathsâunsure of what to even expect to happenâGiya was already in tears as she muttered, ââ¦G-Gerald⦠Is⦠Is that really youâ¦?â
âIt is me! Iâm so sorry that Iâm late! Iâm so sorryâ¦!â shouted Gerald as he hugged her tight, his grief insurmountable.
âWhatâs the meaning of this, Young Master Turnbull?â
âYeah! If you want that woman so much then purchase her first, you shabbily-dressed son of a b*tch!
Actually, do you think heâs trying to snatch that beauty away?!â
Below stage, several of the rich young heirs were feeling extremely dissatisfied by Geraldâs actions.
âI must say, he truly is courting death! Now that I think about it, how did he even manage to board the main ship? Regardless, please remember not to admit to knowing him should Young Master Turnbull decide to interrogate us later!â grumbled Fia as she glared contemptuously at Gerald.
Amidst the chaos, Baelfire turned to look at Gerald before sneering, âBeing a bit too impatient, arenât we, sir? Just so you know, this chickâs starting price is seven million dollars! Please pay that amount first before you place your hands on her! Hahaha!â
Gerald, however, simply ignored him, opting instead to help Giya to her feet as he asked, âAre you the only one here? Where are the others?â
âThey⦠your sisters and aunts⦠they were captured by those people⦠Following that, the Turnbulls contacted the group of villains and in the end, Baelfire purchased me! However, know that despite being repeatedly humiliated by him, I always tried to fight back the best that I could!â cried out Giya.
âI see⦠Not to worry, Giya. Everythingâs fine now⦠Now letâs go!â replied Gerald as he patted her gently on her shoulders.
Getting her onto his back, he was just about to leave when Baelfireâwho had already been annoyed by the fact that Gerald had ignored his earlier statementâ furiously shouted, âHey, now! Where the hell did you even come from, you b*stard? Are you treating me like I donât exist? Are you even aware of whose territory youâre currently in?!â
Turning to look at him, Gerald then casually replied, âLook, Young Master Turnbull, Iâd like to send my friend home first for her to properly recuperate. Worry not, once Iâve done that, Iâll be looking for you and your family next!â
The second Geraldâs sentence ended, a roar of laughter could be heard from almost everyone within the audience.
âIs that person a nutjob? Who does he even think he is?!â
Never imagining that a person would be dumb enough to look for trouble with the Turnbulls, everyone was already mocking Gerald with tears in their eyes as they laughed their lungs out.
Beau himself was flabbergasted as he declared, âHeâs truly lost it! Youâre absolutely right, Fia! We canât ever claim to know him!â
Moving back to Baelfire, he laughed aloud before shouting, âI admit that youâre brave. However, do you really think that Iâll just stand here doing nothing while you escape with Giya?!â
As if on cue, seven men dressed in black garments then rushed onto the stage before swiftly surrounding Gerald!
âSince you refused to back down, youâll just have to be beaten up before your corpse gets hacked into pieces!â growled Baelfire.
âWith all due respect, Young Master Turnbull, my friend here is already weak enough as she is! I really need to rush back first to have her treated! Also, Iâve heard that your rich and powerful family has existed for dozens of generations in Yanam. With that said, Iâll give you half an hour to prepare yourself and let you have your final sense of ceremony. Again, worry not, for Iâll be back to deal with you in exactly thirty minutes!â replied Gerald with a frown.
âYouâ¦! You b*stardâ¦! Who the hell do you think you are, spitting such nonsense here?! Also, what are all of you still standing there in a daze for? Beat him into a pulp already!â roared the infuriated Baelfire.
