Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1098
“Still unwilling to tell the truth? While I have no idea how you altered the paternity test machine’s results, I know for
a fact that you weren’t even the one who had given birth to the child. Look, since we’re ex-classmates, I’m willing
to let you off if you tell me the truth,” said Gerald coldly.
Hearing that, Alice immediately became stupefied, fear reflected in her eyes as she thought, ‘When did Gerald get
this powerful…?’
“Now that I think about it, could you be doing all this because you have some sort of motive?” asked Gerald.
Since he had been thinking about the death prophecy throughout his trip home, he couldn’t help but be extra wary.
“I… I have no idea what you’re talking about! Unhand me!” denied Alice.
“Still reluctant to tell the truth, huh? Fine, then! I’ll treat this child as my own and raise her… But I’ll toss you into the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtocean to be food for the fish!” declared Gerald as he instantly lifted her up.
Alice was now extremely terrified. After all, the Gerald she once knew was both timid and weak. No matter how
cruel the old Gerald was, he simply couldn’t bear to look at crying women, which usually resulted in him instantly
dropping his cruel façade.
However, despite the fact that she was now crying so much, Gerald’s ferocity and murderous intent remained.
He had completely changed, and Alice was now more certain than ever that what he had declared was no joke.
“F-fine! I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you! Just put me down first!” squealed Alice in fear.
Hearing that, Gerald tossed her onto a bed where she promptly—and extremely bitterly—shouted, “Y-you’re right!
The child truly isn’t ours!”
The moment she said that, however, she was instantly hit with immense remorse.
“So where did you get the child? Did you steal it? As far as I remember, I’ve already given you a lot of money. How
could you still be so dissatisfied to the point where you’re even willing to do all this?” said Gerald coldly.
“N-no! I didn’t steal that child! Don’t look down on me, Gerald! While I may not be a nice woman, I wouldn’t do such
a cruel thing! I simply adopted the child from an orphanage!”
“Explain how the Crawford doctors came to the conclusion that the child was ours.”
“That… I’m not too sure about that either… An old master taught me that tactic…” said Alice as she gently touched
her hurt neck while getting off the bed before taking a few steps back.
“If that’s the case, then go clear things up with my grandpa and father. Once you do that, I’ll hand you a large sum
of money that’ll be enough to comfortably sustain you and your family for at least three generations,” replied
Gerald.
Hearing that, Alice immediately stood up anxiously as she said, “I… I don’t need money! Gerald, did you honestly
think that I did all this just for money…? While it’s true that I once looked down on you for being a pauper, all of that
is in the past now… Don’t you know that I’ve already fallen for you for quite some time, Gerald…? I wish to be with
you! Even if you go penniless now, I still want to be yours!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter saying all that, she immediately threw herself onto Gerald, attempting to hug him.
Gerald, however, simply used a hand to push her aside before calmly saying, “Cease your nonsense and tell me
what you truly want already.”
“You!” shouted Alice who was so angry that she began stomping her foot.
“…Look, just let me stay, alright? You can’t just drive me away, Gerald! I mean, just have a look outside! Can’t you
see that grandpa and dad are taking turns holding Mable? They’re already treating her as part of the family and
they look so happy too!” added Alice as she pointed out the window.
“Besides, I’ve already heard that you and your grandpa are about to embark on a long journey and won’t be back
for quite a bit… I’ve even been told that grandpa may end up never coming back… Now that he’s filled with hope
after meeting his great-grandchild, don’t you think the beautiful lie should be kept alive?” cried out Alice.
“You’d better stop twisting your insincere words to sound beautiful. Tell me what you have up your sleeves or I
won’t let you off that easily!” shouted Gerald, his voice now extremely frigid.
Just as he was about to pick Alice up to toss her out, Lyra’s voice could suddenly be heard saying, “Oh? Whose child
is that, dad? Grandpa? She’s so cute! Speaking of which, I heard that Gerald’s back… Where is he? There’s
something I need to speak to him about…”
