The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 616
âThe thing is, I donât feel easy about this at all, Mr. Long. I hope that youâre aware that because of you, I ended up not only offending Mr. Crawford, but also the Owens family. You know, Mr. Crawfordâs men were looking for me all over Mayberry City yesterday. If Miss Rosalie actually decides to look into the case in future, then Iâll surely be done for!â
The speaker, then added, âIâve already given up everything just to help you this time, so fork out the cash as soon as possible. The sooner I leave this godforsaken place, the better. It isnât a stretch to say that the Owens family will eventually find out who really laid their hands on Miss Rosalie. Should that happen, chaos will surely ensue. After all, the Longs and the Owens have had so many business dealings together!â
âD*mn it, Harry! Are you threatening me?â replied Yunus as he snorted coldly.
Yunus had indeed been the one who had set up both Rosalie and Gerald back in the hotel. It was part of his plan to gather capable allies in order to finally bring Gerald down. After all, the Owens and the Longs held almost equal amounts of power. With the two great forces combined, Yunus would definitely be able to finally defeat Gerald.
If everything went according to plan, not only would he have saved the damsel in distress, but he would also have helped the Long family regain their power and industries in Mayberry City.
The Longs would finally get their chance to take revenge after Jessica drove them out of Mayberry Cityâs commercial industry in the past.
Once that happened, it would pave the way for Yunus to inherit a greater share of his familyâs succession in the future.
Naturally, Harry was also aware of the grudge between the Crawfords and the Longs.
He knew how Yunus had easily gathered so many supporters and helpers in Mayberry City within such a short amount of time. The Long family had, after all, been part of Mayberry City in the past, and the connections and relations that they had built back then still stood to this very day.
âLook, I donât really like threatening you either, but I donât really have a choice here. If I donât get the money soon, I might not even survive long enough to get it! Just so you know, Geraldâs sister isnât back yet. What do you think is going to happen to me when she returns and finds out that I had colluded with you to frame her brother? Have you forgotten what she did to the Long family back then? Do you need me to refresh you on what exactly happened?â said Harry.
âAlright, alright⦠Where are you? Iâll send someone over to hand you the money now. Make sure you keep your mouth zipped tight and leave as soon as you receive the money!â replied Yunus coldly.
After hearing that, Harry immediately shared his location with Yunus. It didnât take long for two Maybach cars to appear before Harry.
Out stepped an old man followed by a few bodyguards dressed entirely in black.
The moment all of them stood in front of Harry, he began chuckling before saying, âNow this is how it should be! Setting up others to take the blame is my forte. All of you have certainly made the right choice in hiring me! I assure you that they wonât be able to obtain a single strand of evidence at all!
Haha! Regardless, let me count the money first!â
Harry then took the money and started counting, a smile on his face.
âIt certainly was a wise decision to hire you. Youâre definitely skillful, weâll give you that. However, you talk a bit too much. Since both the Crawfords and the Owens are involved in this matter, my young master is slightly worried that you wonât be able to keep your mouth shut in the long run!â sneered the old man who looked quite similar to a steward.
âWorry not! My lips are sealed!â replied Harry as he continued smiling.
At that moment, the old man looked at his subordinates. Among them, was the long-haired Scorpion.
Seeing their cue, all of them immediately pounced on Harry, subduing him in seconds!
âThe fck? Are you guys seriously trying to silence me for good? Dmn it all!â
âHahaha⦠Apologies, Harry. On the bright side, your sacrifice here today will ensure that the Owens and the Longs will work together just fine. Weâll finally be able to take down the Crawford family! Also, while weâre at it, you should never have threatened Mr. Long in the first place! End him!â
As soon as his sentence ended, Scorpionâwhose hands were bandagedâbegan strangling Harry.
âF-f*ck all of you!â
In his attempt to escape with his life intact, Harry managed to kick Scorpion away. With his neck now momentarily freed from Scorpionâs grasps, Harry then immediately dived into the river, securing his temporary escape.
âD*mn it all! How could all of you be this careless?! That person canât be trusted at all! If we donât get our hands on him today, we may never have another opportunity like this again!â yelled the steward at his subordinates.
As for Harry, he remained in the water for a long time before finally crawling ashore.
Once he was sure that the coast was clear, he started cursing fiercely.
âThat dmnedYunus Long! What a bstard he is! To think I nearly died because of him today! Fine then!
Since I canât make money off of you, then thereâs no need for any further hesitation! You dare lay your hands on me? Iâll be laying mine on your woman then! Just you wait!â
