The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 623
âGiya? Why arenât you resting in your room? Why did you come out?â asked Walton, his voice clearly distressed.
Seeing her, some of her extended family members coughed before saying, âYou know, Giya really is a good girl. Sheâs well aware that we canât afford to offend the Long family. What more, hadnât Mr. Long spent millions of dollars to save you when you were kidnapped? He definitely loves you a lot!â
In the room, Walton was the only one who knew the reality of the situation. Since he was worried sick, Giya had detailed the events that had taken place the night before to him. The others were completely oblivious to the truth of what had really happened.
Hearing the comments from her uncles and aunts, Giya only laughed as she expressed a wry smile.
She understood what they were trying to tell her.
Despite that, Giya wasnât angry at them at all. She was aware that the pressure from the Long and the main Quarrington family was really suffocating both her own, and her extended family.
What more, she knew that her uncles and aunts still needed to support their own families. That was the gist as to why she wasnât holding anything against them.
Besides, she just couldnât care any less about her situation anymore. What else could she do?
Gerald didnât seem to care about her anymore. After all, he already had his beloved Mila.
While she had initially thought that there would still be a chance for her and Gerald to be together in the past, she didnât even want to think about it anymore.
The way she saw it, the only way she could possibly be of any use in this situation was to sacrifice herself. At least then she would finally be able to help her family attain peace!
After taking a deep breath, Giya smiled before saying, âDad, mom, Iâll go get ready first so that we can attend Yunusâs birthday banquet later!â
She then returned to her room.
Seeing his daughter like that, Walton couldnât help but feel slightly depressed.
Meanwhile, Harry was together with Gerald and in his hand was a USB flash drive.
âHehe⦠This is my gift to you, Mr. Crawford. Iâm sure youâll be very interested in it,â said Harry as he slid the USB into a laptop and began playing a video.
After watching the entire thing, Gerald couldnât help but sneer before asking, âDid you record this last night?â
âHeh, I did! I may not have many skills, but if itâs regarding despicable or sneaky acts, no one can compare to me!â replied Harry as he patted his own chest twice.
âThatâs quite enough. Thereâs no need to brag about that!â replied Zack as he smiled wryly.
âEither way, we now have enough evidence on hand. Together with the footage, we should finally be set to beat him in his own game!â
âIndeed!â said Gerald as he smiled while nodding.
At that moment, Geraldâs phone began to ring. It was a call from his godbrother, Yoel.
âWhatâs wrong, Yoel?â
âBrother! We got beaten up! Aiden got beaten up the worst!â
âWhat?! How bold! Who did it?â asked Gerald angrily.
âWho else could it have been? Itâs that b*stardYunus of course! Heâs hosting a big birthday banquet today and almost every influential and powerful individual in Mayberry City has been invited over! The only people he specifically excluded from the event were people associated with the Crawford family!
Because of that, Aiden and I brought some men over to cause some trouble for himâ¦â
Yoel then quickly explained everything that had happened to Gerald.
Essentially, both Yoel and Aiden had been dissatisfied since Yunus was clearly targeting the Crawford family through the event.
The Long family was powerful after all, yet Yunus still chose to host his banquet in Mayberry City. What more, he was even hosting it at Wayfair Mountain Entertainment! The place Jessica used to run!
It was clear as day that Yunus was deliberately targeting Gerald.
Still, Aiden and Yoel had gone there looking for trouble without even telling Gerald beforehand. Since it was being hosted by Yunus, it was to be expected that many Long family members would also be present. That obviously contributed to the huge loss they ended up suffering.
âFor now, both of you should come back and look for me first!â replied Gerald.
He wasnât going to just let this slide. After all, he treated both of them like his own brothers.
âWeâre already downstairs! Iâm supporting Aiden right now!â replied Yoel.
âIâm coming down now!â replied Gerald as he led Harry and the others downstairs.
True to Yoelâs word, both of them had been terribly beaten up. Aidenâs face was very badly bruised and most of it was already swollen. Even Yoel had a few bruises on his face.
âIâm so sorry, Mr. Crawford! Iâve embarrassed you today!â
