Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2016
Kay himself couldnât help but frown after hearing that. After thinking about it for a while, he then walked toward the king and queen who were seated at their thrones⦠After whispering something to them, he then returned to his initial spot before declaring, âHis Majesty has decreed that this is criminally unruly behavior! With that said, an investigation will immediately be carried out! Since weâre already on the topic, do you know who sent those assassins, Miss Juans?â
Nodding in response, Yalinda then replied, âI do! Your Majesties, it was Clyde Gower who planned the assassination last night!â
The second she said that, everyone instantly became stupefied.
Realizing that Kay was now looking at him, Clyde then stood up before roaring, âUtter nonsense!â
âOr so you say, Young Master Gower! Iâm sure you know whoâs the real person spouting nonsense here! In case you didnât know, we managed to capture the assassins, and theyâre currently right outside the cityâs gates! With that in mind, I request that they be allowed in to confront their young master!â
replied Yalinda with a cold smile on her face.
âPermission granted!â declared Kay.
A few minutes later, Tanner and Yale led the four assassins into the arena with the help of a few soldiersâ¦
âThese are the Gower familyâs assassins, General Lucarl!â announced Yalinda as she pointed at the four tied-up men.
Seeing that they were now here, Kay waited for a moment before raising a slight brow. Walking closer to them, he realized that they were all fully paralyzed, unable to even blink! With that, Kay was prompted to ask, ââ¦Whatâs wrong with them? Why have they gone all rigid?â
Upon hearing that, Gerald quickly walked toward the four and began poking their chakra points to unseal their bodies. Once they were done, they were freely able to move againâ¦
Nodding when he saw that, Kay then said, âAlright⦠Now that youâre no longer paralyzed⦠Was what she said true?â
Naturally, none of them could say a word. After all, their mouths remained sewn shut.
Realizing that Kay was expecting a verbal answer, Yalinda quickly explained, âGeneral Lucarl, their mouths have been sewn shut so they canât speak!â
âWhat? Theyâre all mutes?â replied the surprised Kay.
Understanding that this was his chance to avoid facing the consequences, Clyde then retorted, âHah! If they canât talk, why are you putting the blame on me?! As you can see, General Lucarl, sheâs clearly spouting cr*p!â
âWhile they canât talk, they can still shake their heads and nod!â refuted Yalinda, instantly silencing Clyde again. He hadnât considered that!
âNod if itâs true, and shake your head if it isnât. Was it Clyde Gower who sent you to attack them?â
asked Kay as he glared at the assassins. With how intently Kay was glaring at them, the four assassins couldnât help but sneak peeks at Clydeâ¦
