Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2017

After a short pause, all four of the assassins eventually shook their heads!

Upon seeing that, Yalinda was rightfully angry as she growled, “You…!”

Realizing that he still had a chance to get out of this situation, a sly smile flashed across Clyde’s face. Following that,

he feigned aggrievance as he said, “You see, General Lucarl? I’m innocent! Please clear my name, general!”

With the current turn of events, Gerald was now wondering whether he should’ve let Yalinda do the talking…

After all, though the assassins were mute, they were by no means dumb. They probably figured that Gerald

wouldn’t be able to do anything to them in the presence of so many people. By choosing to lie, not only would

Clyde’s life be spared, but also theirs!

Whatever the case was, Kay then cleared his throat before asking sternly, “Again, just to confirm. Is it true that

Clyde didn’t send you over?” Watching as the four then nodded again, Kay added, “Very well. We’ll put the matter

aside for the moment, then. Guards, lock them up immediately! We’ll look further into this once the competition is

over.”

Naturally unwilling to just accept that, Yalinda then said, “But General Lucarl-“

Before she could even finish her sentence, Kay simply raised his hand before replying, “Again, let’s put the matter

aside for the time being. Not only have they already said that Young Master Gower wasn’t the one behind this, but

the incident also happened outside Gardale City. With that in mind, we aren’t responsible for handling the case. Due

to that, we’ll talk about this once the competition ends.”

Once Kay turned around to leave, Clyde moved closer to Yalinda before chuckling sinisterly as he jeered, “Heh, did

you really think you could frame me that easily, Yalinda?”

Hearing that, Yalinda immediately glared at the despicable man as he returned to his seat. To think that the

assassins would retract their confessions at the last second!

While she was furious at him, she knew better than to waste her energy feeling angry. After all, just as Kay had said,

nothing would be investigated till the competition was over…

“Leave him be, Yalinda! Come back for now!” called out Gerald, prompting Yalinda to helplessly return to her seat…

Once she was sitting beside Gerald again, Yalinda couldn’t help but grumble, “…To think that Clyde had planned this

far ahead…!” Instead of sharing Yalinda’s dissatisfaction, Gerald simply laughed coldly in response as he said, “It’s

fine, we’ll just accept this as our loss for now… However, know that I still have other ways to deal with him!”

Just as Gerald had said, though they had failed to immediately take Clyde down, it didn’t mean that they had

automatically lost. Since Clyde was now pulling all his triumph cards, Gerald would do the same…

Regardless, the matches for the day soon ended…

While the matches were still on earlier, Gerald had plenty of time to think of his next step. In the end, he figured

that since the semi-finals would be held in the next two days, Clyde would surely use that time to cause more

trouble for him.

Due to that, Gerald decided that he would finish Clyde off within the following two days…
