Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1144
“How daring can you be?! A lowly servant? It seems that all of you are truly oblivious as to how much you’re just
begging to die!” roared Linus as his lips twitched.
Now crying even harder after receiving the slap, Freya—who simply couldn’t reconcile with the fact that she was
getting punished instead of the servant—then retorted, “But it’s the lowly servant’s fault for hurting me, dad! Why
are you hitting us instead?!”
She instantly received a second slap from Linus as he roared, “How dare you continue speaking so ruthlessly! If you
know what’s good for you then quickly apologize to Mr. Crawford!”
After fiercely warning her, Linus immediately bowed at Gerald before saying, “I apologize if this ignorant young
woman offended you, Mr. Crawford! Please forgive her!”
“…H-huh…?” muttered Freya who truly hadn’t expected her father to actually bow to that servant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe wasn’t the only one stupefied either. Everyone present was now utterly flabbergasted and in disbelief at what
they were currently witnessing.
“I won’t hold it against her just because I wish to show Queena some respect. However, I strongly suggest that you
advise your daughter against slapping anyone as she pleases!” replied Gerald coldly as he glared at Freya.
Hearing that, Freya found herself blushing as she said, “…Y-you… Could you be… the mysterious Mr. Crawford from
Northbay…?”
Gulping, she then thought to herself, ‘He’s the legendary rich heir…?’
“You silly girl! Thankfully, Mr. Crawford didn’t take your actions to heart! The rest of you better hurry up and
apologize to him as well!” ordered Linus.
While the others had earlier assumed that Gerald was just a very rich person—after hearing Freya’s description of
him—none of them had expected him to be this terrifying, face to face!
“…I-I’m sorry!” shouted Freya as she immediately lowered her head while blushing as she apologized. Though it
simply felt incredulous, Freya knew that the man before her was the real deal after seeing how respectful her
father was toward him.
As she did that, she snuck a few peeks at him—with her beautiful eyes—to observe his reaction to her apology.
In her mind, she was wondering if their simple dispute could end up with her having a romantic affair with that filthy
rich man. To her utter dismay, he didn’t even look at her!
The fact that Gerald was looking to the side while she was apologizing made Freya feel deeply disappointed.
As for the others present, none of them even dared to say a word.
Queena herself was currently looking at Gerald rather curiously, occasionally blinking her large eyes.
At that moment, some noise could be heard coming from a crowd outside. Hearing the commotion, both Gerald
and Linus turned their attention toward the sound’s direction.
Soon after, both men watched as thirty-two peculiar-dressed people made their way toward them. On their
shoulders, was a massive palanquin that honestly looked like a living room of sorts.
Sitting atop a large chair on the palanquin, was a young man donning black robes, and following the group on both
sides were two old men.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAny pedestrians whom they passed by instantly bowed at the magnificent procession.
It was Gerald’s first time seeing such a dominant array as well. After all, even emperors during ancient times didn’t
travel about atop palanquins carried by thirty-two people.
“Is he the young lord?” asked Gerald with a frigid tone.
“Y-yes, Mr. Crawford!” replied Linus as he wiped the sweat off his forehead, knowing that he was truly between a
rock and a hard place at the moment.
Currently standing between what could very well be two gods of death, he knew that offending any one of them
could result in his entire family getting exterminated. There was no way he could afford to offend either one of
them.
With that in mind, he immediately bowed and welcomed the young lord after respectfully answering Gerald’s
question.
Everyone else present did the same as well, bowing as respectfully as they could.
Seeing that, the two men standing by the palanquin nodded in satisfaction. However, the moment they looked at
Gerald, they couldn’t help but furrow their brows.
After all, Gerald was simply standing there while looking at them coldly, both his hands in his pockets.
