Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1011

“…What?”

Theo was so shocked by what he had just witnessed that that was the only thing he was able to mutter as he

immediately stood up.

Everyone else was equally as shocked, especially the poor waiter who had been standing right behind the door—

ready to serve more dishes—when all that happened.

Zander himself had both his feet on the floor again at this point. While he had initially assured himself earlier that

Gerald was definitely just an ordinary young man without any actual capabilities, he now knew how wrong he was.

To think that he would actually be able to smash a wooden door to pieces with just a single vegetable leaf! Just how

much training did he have to go through to get that strong?!

The atmosphere in the room was getting increasingly stressful by the second.

Clearly feeling the pressure, Theo—who was currently drenched in cold sweat—mumbled to himself, “To think that

one could actually inflict pain upon others simply by using a leaf!”

To attempt to ease the overwhelming awkwardness of the situation, one of the people from the Lovewell family—

who had been standing at the side this entire time—smiled and asked, “M-master Zabinski, I couldn’t quite catch

that… Could you repeat what you said…?”

Feeling more and more cold sweat dripping down his chin, the completely dazed Theo simply repeated, “I said, to

think that one could actually inflict pain upon others simply by using a leaf!”

Now finally feeling the adrenaline of fear, Theo then added, “H-how eye-opening! To think that such a skill could

even exist on this planet!”

Theo was now looking at Gerald in a completely different light. Realizing that the map was still with him, he

immediately walked over to face Gerald and respectfully held out the item before saying, “M-Mr. Crawford! I

apologize for not being an insightful person! Please have your map back!”

Seeing that, Zander and his family members exchanged glances with each other. In the end, all of them took turns

standing up.

“Please forgive me for my earlier imprudence, Mr. Crawford. For Kaleb’s sake, please consider helping the Lovewell

family to rid us of our current crisis,” said Zander before bowing deeply before Gerald.

Putting the map away, Gerald casually replied, “What’s the big issue? Can’t Master Merrett resolve it?”

Gerald was only prompted to ask now since he had been given the map which, in all honesty, was something useful

to him. He wasn’t really interested in meddling in the Lovewell family’s affairs just for Kaleb’s sake either. He just

didn’t want to feel like he owed any of them any favors.

“Well, the thing is…”

With that, Zander then began detailing everything regarding the incident.

As it turned out, the Lovewells had made themselves an enemy a while back. The enemy in question left them

alone for a period of time, seemingly to return to his homeland.

However, upon his return, the Lovewells found out that even their most powerful bodyguards weren’t able to take

down the enemy. Though they had no idea how he had become so powerful during his absence, the more pressing

issue was the fact that he had declared to kill a descendant of the Lovewell family every ten days until none of

them were left.

Up till this point, two descendants of the Lovewells had already been both harmed and eventually killed despite

Zander’s orders that prohibited any of the younger generations from ever leaving their homes.

For now, the remaining younger generations of the Lovewell family remained hiding in their homes.

The enemy himself went by the name of Damian Wake, and his goal was simple. The man simply wanted the

Lovewells to be completely wiped off the face of the planet, but only after he had driven them insane in fear.

Knowing that, the only thing Zander could do was hire a large group of experts to protect his family. It was also the

reason why they had hosted the treasure exchange event a month earlier this year.

Their plan was to attract large groups of rich and powerful people to the event. The greater the number of

participants, the greater their strength. Besides, strength in numbers would also encourage the Lovewells to remain

vigilant and not just give in.

Hearing that, Gerald now understood why Haven and her siblings had to sneak out just to have some fun.

“While Damian was once one of the Logan Province’s rich heirs, both he and his father were equally as wicked.

Since they constantly behaved so viciously, all the rich businessmen in the Logan Province boycotted them back

then, ultimately resulting in their family falling apart. However, being the extremely petty-minded person he is,

we’re all aware that Damian won’t stop until he takes his revenge on all of the families that had boycotted them so

many years ago, and I do mean all of them. Once his revenge on the Lovewell family has been sated, he’ll definitely

start going after the other families as well!” said Kaleb.

“Speaking of which, we’ve previously made an appointment with him. Essentially, it’s a challenge to a duel due

tomorrow night… It’s rather humiliating to admit it, but he’s so strong that I don’t think I’ll even be a match against

him!” added the white-haired man as he shook his head with a sigh.

Looking at Gerald, Zander then respectfully said, “It would truly be a blessing to us should you decide to lend us a

hand, Mr. Crawford…”

Since Gerald didn’t really have much of a good impression on Zander, he turned to face Kaleb before replying, “…

Sure. I’ll go over to have a look.”

“How wonderful to hear!”
