Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 860

Gerald was honestly feeling slightly disappointed as he made his way toward the house.

‘Would a large family even be able to live in such a secluded place…?’

Just as he was a few steps away from the wooden house’s door, Gerald watched as an old man—who looked to be

over sixty—exited the house.

Though the old man was dressed like a villager, his clothes were rather clean.

The second he noticed Gerald, he was momentarily stunned though he quickly hid his shock with a smile before

asking, “Well hello there, mister! Can I help you with anything?”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, sir! I’d just like to ask whether you know of any large families living up here on this

mountain,” replied Gerald.

“Large families? Haha! Take a good look around, mister! There’s nothing but mountains and trees all around! I’m

only living here since I guard the forests! Nobody else here but me!” explained the man as he continued to smile.

“I trust my friend who told me to look for him here. Are you absolutely sure that there aren’t any other families

living atop this mountain?” said Lady Yaleman as she slowly inched closer to the two under the support of a

subordinate.

Hearing that, the old man squinted his eyes slightly as he scanned both Lady Yaleman and Gerald from head to toe.

“…Friend? Pray tell, what kind of friend could you possibly mean? I do wonder if that friend of yours left a token of

sorts with you…?” asked the old man rather casually.

When she heard that, Lady Yaleman seemed to realize something.

“…Yes… Yes, he did give a token to me. A wooden one!” said Lady Yaleman as she fished around her purse before

finally taking out a small wooden token.

Upon giving the wooden token a good look, the old man found himself raising an eyebrow.

“What exactly is your relationship with the Yalemans in Yanken?”

“I’m the master of the Yaleman family. It’s been a good many years since I’ve last met with the person who handed

this token to me…”

“I see. Well, that’s all I need to know. Follow me, though only the two of you are allowed to come. Any others will

have to remain here,” said the old man.

It hadn’t occurred to Gerald earlier that the forest was merely a distraction to allow the Moldells to continue living in

seclusion. So they really were living here!

After helping his grandmother get atop the old man’s bullock cart, Gerald got on as well as the old man began

transporting them down a small path that went deeper into the forest.

Meanwhile, Sheldon was standing beside Bea back inside the Yaleman family house.

“Here are all the foreign loans of the Yaleman family from the past few years. I’ve summarized most of them, Miss

Yaleman. Do have a look,” said the butler.

“I appreciate it, Sheldon,” replied Bea with a smile.

She had been given special orders from Lady Yaleman before she left together with Gerald. Until she returned, all

affairs of the Yaleman family, both major and minor, would be left under Bea’s care.

As Bea was looking through the loans, Yura burst into the room before shouting, “S-something’s gone terribly

wrong, Sheldon!”

“Young master! What happened?” asked Sheldon immediately.

“It’s my parents and that piece of land! Since they couldn’t reconcile with the fact that they had been tricked by

Shane, my mom got into an argument with him when they were handing over the land! As a result, Shane has now

captured both of my parents!” explained Yura.

“How could such a thing happen…? Shane is getting increasingly daring! And to think that he’s still doing such

things even after receiving that warning from Miss Crawford!” said Sheldon resentfully.

“Regardless, matters regarding the Yaleman family all fall under Miss Yaleman now. Why don’t you ask her about

it?” added Sheldon.

Hearing that, Yura’s left eye twitched slightly before he turned to look at Bea.

“Bea… Though it’s true that my mom’s acted rashly toward you in the past, she’s still your aunt! Please help your

uncle and aunt… We can’t allow the Longs to do this!” pleaded Sheldon in an apologetic tone.

Hearing that, Bea took in a deep breath before remaining silent for a brief moment.

“Cousin… Please… If you don’t do something now, something bad could happen to my parents… Believe me when I

say that Shane truly wants to vent all his anger out on my parents!”

“…Fine. Sheldon, make some arrangements and get us some subordinates. I’m heading over to have a look at the

situation myself.”

Regardless of how terribly he and his family had treated her in the past, Bea felt that it would simply be too cruel

not to lend him a hand.

Once all the preparations were made, she headed out with Yura.
