Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1601
The second Geraldâs sentence ended, a crisp âcrackâ could be heard. Following that, Yesirnâs screams of pain filled the air!
Gerald had just crushed one of Yesirnâs arms, and the excruciating pain that the young master was feeling was evident in his expression.
Seeing that, Henrickâs fury knew no bounds as he glared at Gerald while shouting, âYouâ¦!â
âLook, you old b*stard! Your sonâs in my hands, and if you want him alive by the end of all this, youâd better hand over my sister! Iâm sure you know whatâll happen to him if you donât comply!â retorted Gerald straightforwardly, not wanting to waste any more time than he needed to with Henrick.
It was clearly a proposal that Henrick couldnât reject unless he didnât care about his son, and everyone there knew that.
In response, however, Henrick simply continued pointing at Gerald as he yelled, âListen here, if my son dies neither you nor your sister will be able to leave Jaellatra alive as well!â
âYouâre really asking for it, arenât you?â Gerald thought to himself. Rather than feeling afraid, the more Henrick threatened him, the more annoyed he got.
With that, more cracking sounds could be heard, followed by another ear-piercing scream from Yesirn!
âP-please⦠dadâ¦! Pro- promise him that youâll return herâ¦! I⦠I donât want to dieâ¦!â pleaded the agonized young master.
Seeing his son being tortured so much, Henrick gave it some thought, gritting his teeth the entire time before eventually growling, ââ¦Fine! You have my word that Iâll return Jessica to you!â
Understanding that the priority was to keep his son alive, Henrick then turned to face one of his servants before ordering, âGo bring Jessica over!â
Hearing that, the servant instantly rushed back to the Quartermain family manor to retrieve Geraldâs sister.
Before Henrick could say another thing, however, he heard Gerald shout, âYouâd better not be playing any tricks on me, you old b*stard! If even the slightest harm comes to my sister, I guarantee that your family will have a bloody price to pay!â
Though Henrick remained silent, he was now more enraged than ever.
To think that he, the mighty and magnificent master of the Quartermain family, would actually be threatened by this inexperienced young man! If word about this got out, heâd surely drown in humiliation!
However, he wasnât too worried about that scenario happening. After all, the second his son was out of danger, he could just kill both Gerald and his sister on the spot! Even if he failed to do so immediately, he was definitely not letting them leave Bario city unscathed.
It was around ten minutes later when Jessica was led into the pavilion under the guide of two servantsâ¦
Upon realizing Geraldâs presence, her eyes instantly teared up as she cried out, âGeraldâ¦!â
She knew her younger brother would definitely come save herâ¦!
âDonât worry, sister! Both of us will surely leave this place safely!â consoled Gerald.
Looking at all the scars and injuries Jessica had suffered, her pitiful state only served to fuel Gerald with an even greater wrath. He really wanted to chop all the Quartermains into pieces right now!
Even so, he refrained, knowing very well that the priority was to rescue his sister first. He wasnât going to allow her to sustain any further injuries.
Regardless, upon hearing Geraldâs words, Jessica simply nodded slightly. She believed in Gerald, and she knew that they were going to make it out of all this.
Unwilling to further watch the heart-warming scene between the two siblings, Henrick then demanded, âLook, Iâve brought your sister here, Gerald! Now release my son!â
âHumph! Impatient, arenât we? Release my sister first if you want him back!â sneered Gerald as he glared at Henrick.
