Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1016

Struggling with all she could, Xavia managed to momentarily break free. Immediately after, she pulled out a dagger

from seemingly nowhere!

“Don’t move a step closer! My men are nearby! The way you said it, I’m assuming that you people have been

following me for some time now!” warned Xavia as she waved the dagger around.

“Please trust us, Miss Xavia. Our boss is truly interested in working with you! Besides, you’ll also be getting

something else in return!” said the foreigner maliciously as he casually began walking toward her.

As Xavia’s panic peaked, she heard a whisper of sorts saying, “Toss the dagger!”

Though nobody else seemed to have heard it, Xavia felt compelled to obey the order. As a result, she immediately

tossed the dagger toward the foreigner!

The foreigner himself had been laughing while shaking his head before she tossed it. By the time the dagger left

her hand, he was halfway through saying, “Miss Xavia, stop swinging that thing around! That’s rather rude of you,

you kno-”

His sentence was cut short when the dagger—that he was sure he could easily avoid given how far it still was from

him as he was talking—suddenly accelerated and punctured through the side of his stomach!

It was such a clean puncture that the dagger continued moving until it collided with a tree!

Grunting loudly as he held back from releasing a scream, the foreigner’s eyes went cold as his side continued

bleeding profusely.

As he knelt on the ground, pressing against his freshly inflicted wound, the other foreigners had finally caught on to

what they had just witnessed. As a result, they were all now feeling increasingly nervous.

“R-retreat! Retreat immediately!” shouted their leader as his subordinates carried him away in a hurry.

Xavia herself was now panting heavily. Both frightened and confused, her eyes were glued onto the dagger she had

just thrown.

“…Who… Who are you? I know someone helped me! Thank you for saving me!” shouted Xavia respectfully. She

wasn’t able to recognize the voice from earlier since Gerald had used his voice-changing device.

However, even after scanning through the area, she couldn’t seem to find traces of anyone even helping her.

“…I’m sure someone helped me… But who could it have been…?” muttered Xavia to herself, curious.

She was so sure that someone had saved her since, for one, nobody else seemed to have been able to hear the

voice. Secondly, there was no way in hell that she could have managed to toss the dagger that powerfully.

Someone else had definitely been pulling the strings in secret.

But who could it have been? If it was someone from the Long family, then they had no reason not to reveal

themselves…

As she pondered on, one of her bodyguards suddenly came running over before saying, “Here you are, miss!

Master called just now and asked us whether there was any progress on our cooperation with the Lovewells…”

“I see. Let’s head back first!” replied Xavia as she nodded her head somewhat unwillingly.

Soon after, evening came and by then, cars belonging to all the Lovewell family’s family members could be seen

parked outside the Lovewell Manor.

As Zander, Theo, and Kaleb waited respectfully within the manor, a girl—who had been staring at the three men

from a distance—stopped a servant who was walking past her before asking, “What’s the big occasion? Did my

father do anything?”

“I’m not too sure about what’s going on either, miss! All I know is that the master is waiting for some people!”

“Odd… He’s been hiding quite a bit from us recently… How mysterious!”

The girl in question was none other than Haven Lovewell, and just as she was about to ask something else, a troop

of her family’s bodyguards made their appearance and began walking out the front door.

Since she was used to seeing scenes like these, she didn’t say anything about it. Upon closer inspection, however,

she noticed that one of the people within that group wasn’t wearing the same clothes as the other bodyguards.

Squinting her eyes to get a better look, they immediately widened seconds later as she muttered, “…Huh? G-

Gerald?”
