The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1555
Everyone else had their eyes widened in incredulity as well, now finally realizing that the person on stage was none other than the one and only Mr. Crawford of Sacrasolis Palace!
As everyone remained momentarily shocked, Carlos broke the silence by saying, âSo, Mr. Crawford, what should we do with this person?â
From the way he said it, it was clear that Carlos cared little about the consequences, and the same went for Geraldâs other men on stage.
The only one who had initially been slightly hesitant was Yeshua, who had planned on advising Gerald not to mess with the Turnbulls. After all, they were a top major family who owned over half of Yanamâs wealth! What more, those in the Turnbull family were also relatives of the King of Yanam! In short, that family had a deeply-rooted position thereâ¦
With that in mind, the fact that Mr. Crawford had just killed Hooper Turnbullâs only son spelled nothing but complete disaster!
Even so, after realizing how much Carlos and the others revered Gerald, Yeshua held his tongue.
Since things had already gotten this far anyway, he may as well take Gerald as his only guide.
âI guess weâre enemies with that family now⦠So be it!â Yeshua thought to himself.
Either way, Lenox was already well aware that the murderous people before him were all very capable and powerful. With that said, the second he heard Carlosâs question, he instantly got to his knees in fright before pleading, âP-Pleaseâ¦! Please, donât kill meâ¦!â
Upon hearing that, Gerald simply turned to look at him before sneering, âYouâre just a dog, arenât you?
Are you even worthy enough to be killed by me?â
Feeling as Gerald gently began stepping on his head, Lenox then heard the youth say, âNow then, listen closely⦠I want you to send what remains of Baelfireâs corpse back to the Turnbull familyâ¦
Following that, tell them that if they continue allying themselves with the Crawfords of Yaman, this will only be the beginning for them!â
Geraldâs cold words instantly sent shivers down Lenoxâs spine, prompting the terrified man to quickly nod in response.
âNow get lost!â roared Gerald in such a commanding way that Lenox felt as though his soul had just been pierced.
Quickly crawling over to Baelfireâs corpse pieces, the man then carried them up before awkwardly scuttling away.
By that point, Giya had already passed out from all the sudden turn of events.
Realizing that, Gerald then ordered, âCarlos! Take Miss Quarrington for her to get some proper rest!â
The second his order ended, however, the corner of his eyes caught a glimpse of a familiar personâs back⦠Though she was standing near the edges of the crowd, Gerald recognized that back anywhere, and he instantly began trembling all overâ¦
She appeared to be with a friend of hers, and both of them were draped in white clothing. Despite being quite a distance away, Gerald could already sense how pure their fairy-like temperaments wereâ¦
Regardless, her temperament wasnât what caught his attention. Looking at the taller and leaner woman between the two, Gerald was now more certain than ever that it was her!
That back⦠it belonged to Mila!
ââ¦T-thisâ¦â muttered Gerald to himself, his eyelids twitching as he watched the two stunning figures slowly turn around to leave.
He was well aware that he had mistaken other people for Mila several times by now, which was why he wasnât acting impulsively this time.
In the end, however, he simply couldnât hold himself back as he leaped from the stage and landed right behind the leaving duo!
Still slightly anxious, Gerald placed his hands against his backâin an effort to regain his composureâ
before saying, âPlease wait a moment, ladies!â
Stopping in their tracks, the slightly shorter woman then coldly replied, âIs something the matter, sir?
We havenât offended you in any way, right?â
âOf course you havenât. However, I⦠help but realize that this lady beside you resembles my lover a lot⦠Sheâs been missing for many years now, you see, and Iâve been looking all over for her soâ¦â
As Gerald couldnât help but speak his mind out, the taller woman then replied, âThere are many people who resemble others in this world, sir. Iâm sorry to hear that you miss her dearly, but we honestly arenât acquainted, sir!â
Despite her casual reply, Gerald now found himself unable to hold his tears back, deep emotions welling within him.
His eyes fully reddened, it took him insurmountable strength and courage to finally be able to find his voice againâ¦
ââ¦M-Milaâ¦! It⦠It really is youâ¦!â
âThat back⦠That voiceâ¦! Thereâs no doubt about it, she really is Milaâ¦!â
To think that he would actually bump into Mila here of all places⦠How completely unexpected! It was so coincidental that he honestly wondered if he was still dreaming!
Now completely certain that it was her, Gerald then moved even closer to the tall woman before saying, âMila, itâs me! Gerald!â
