Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 924

Squinting his eyes as he scanned the young man—who was slowly inching away—from head to toe, he then yelled, “Hey you! Stop right there!”

Freezing in place, the young beggar was so frightened that he immediately began trembling in fear. He was teary-eyed as he lowered his gaze before pleading, “Y-yes…? Please, sir… Could you spare me some money for food…? I beg of you…”

“…Yoel?” replied Gerald in a soft voice.

Hearing that name, the beggar instantly shuddered immensely as he raised his head. The moment Yoel looked into Gerald’s eyes, his lips began quivering like there was no tomorrow.

“G-Gerald?” asked Yoel as he felt his tears rolling down his cheeks.

Taking his mask off in disbelief, Gerald immediately held on to Yoel’s shoulder before replying, “Yes!

Yes, it’s me, Yoel!”

“Brother! So you’re still alive!” said Yoel aloud as his crutch fell to the ground.

“I am… Yoel… How did you end up like this…?” asked Gerald in shock.

After all, the Yoel he used to know was always so glamorous and well-off back then. It was near impossible for Gerald not to feel distressed after seeing this miserable version of his brother It was a little later when Gerald sat opposite of Yoel at the exact same roadside stall from before.

Pouring Yoel a glass of water before patting him gently on the back, Gerald then said, “Eat slowly, the food’s not going anywhere!”

Upon hearing that, Yoel nodded though that didn’t really stop him from continuing to stuff more food into his mouth.

“I really hadn’t expected so many things to happen in just six months… This is all my fault! All of you were dragged into this because of me!” said Gerald as he began blaming himself.

From what Yoel had told him earlier, though things in Mayberry City mostly remained unchanged throughout the past six months, the same couldn’t be said for those who lived within it.

After the incident that befell Gerald, Jett came to Mayberry City. Since Yoel had assumed that Jett had ended Gerald’s life, he brought a few of his men over to personally take revenge against him.

However, it was obvious at first glance that they weren’t even close to being worthy opponents for Jett.

Due to Yoel’s initial attack, Jett made it a personal goal of his to make everyone that Gerald knew—be it his friends or anyone who used to work for him—suffer.

Naturally, since Yoel had been the one to launch the attack, he ended up suffering the most. Before he was even allowed to leave, they made sure to break one of his legs beyond the point of curing. They wanted him to experience a life worse than death within Mayberry City.

As if that wasn’t enough, Jett also secretly assassinated Uncle Holden’s entire family!

Of course, Jessica was aware of all this, and though she was angry beyond words, there was nothing she could do.

All that led to the events of today.

As for the others, Aiden and his family moved away from Mayberry City to escape the calamity that would soon befall them if they continued staying there any longer. Eventually, Aiden even joined the army.

Even Elena was affected, and from what Yoel had heard, Jett’s subordinates forced her family into bankruptcy. The last piece of information he heard about her—before she went off radar—was that she was currently working as a nurse.

Everything had truly changed for the worst… And the Moldells were behind all this suffering.

“Jett Moldell…!” growled Gerald in a primal rage as murderous intent flashed through his eyes for a split second.

“Still, I’ve really embarrassed you this time around, brother… I’m nothing more than a useless cripple now! Haha!” said Yoel as he finished his meal with a bitter smile on his face.

“Say that again and I’ll smack you hard… You’re no useless cripple… Worry not, I’ll definitely cure your leg one day. As for all the suffering the Holdens had to experience… I’ll be doing them justice if it’s the last thing I do!” declared Gerald coldly.

Yoel, however, simply shook his head.

“No, brother… You should leave Mayberry City tonight. The city’s already changed a whole lot in the past six months. I’ll say it now that Yunus isn’t even close to being comparable to Jett. Not only is Jett rich, but he’s also extremely powerful. It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that even if Jett had attacked us during our peak glory in the past, we wouldn’t have been able to take on him at all!”

“I hear you, Yoel, but you can rest assured. You needn’t worry about me.”

“You’re still evading the Moldell family’s constant pursuit, aren’t you brother…? What are your plans for the future?”

“Hahaha! I have none at the moment… I’ll just make decisions as I go along!”

“Then… Could I follow you, brother? Dying would be completely worth it if it was together with you, brother. I just… really don’t want to continue living like this anymore… The way things are now, I’m better off being dead than alive!

Hearing Yoel’s suggestion, Gerald paused for a moment.

What he said was true. Not only did Yoel no longer have a home to return to, but Jett had also tortured him to his current sorry state.

Gerald knew for a fact that he couldn’t just abandon him like that.

“…Very well. You’ll be following me from now onward! Both of us will live and die together! However, I’ll still be sending you off to a place where you’ll get your injuries treated first,” declared Gerald.

“Y-yes! Yes! We’ll live and die together!” shouted Yoel, feeling extremely moved.

With that, Gerald gave Yoel an address and told him to head toward the border of the Salford Province.

There, he would seek refuge with the Westley family where Master Jenkinson also currently resided.

With his help, Yoel would surely make a full recovery.

“What about you, brother?” asked Yoel.

“Hahaha… Well, let’s just say I have something to settle here first….”
