Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 864

Though the thought of it alone was terrifying, Rose kept her cool.

“Worry not, we’ll just act accordingly. Though the Longs aren’t as powerful as Gerald, their family still wins in terms

of size and history. I’m sure it won’t be that easy for Gerald to sniff us out!”

Soon after, Gerald issued a command for all the members of the Yaleman family to remain inside the Yaleman

family house unless he permitted them to leave.

“There’s something I’m not sure whether I should tell you, Mr. Crawford,” said Philip to Gerald in a private room

within the Yaleman family house a little later.

“Go on!” replied Gerald as he nodded.

“In all honesty, I find Yura and his family to be rather suspicious. After all, they clearly have a motive to do

something like this,” said Philip.

At that, Gerald nodded before replying, “Indeed. I suspect them to be the culprits as well. I’ve already ordered a

few people to investigate more about them. After all, his family is being a little too quiet this time around, contrary

to how they usually behave. It simply feels off. While that’s the vibe I’m getting from them, I truly hope they aren’t

involved this time around.”

At that moment, Sheldon knocked on the door before entering.

“You haven’t had any rest since you returned, sir. You must be exhausted. I’ve ordered a servant to brew you some

soup,” said the butler.

“Thank you, Sheldon. How’s my grandmother? Is she doing alright?” asked Gerald.

“Lady Yaleman has been extremely depressed… She’s been crying for the longest time, sir. However, she’s now

taking a rest…” explained Sheldon as he placed the bowl of soup before Gerald.

Just as Gerald was about to taste some of the soup, Sheldon opened his mouth though no words came out. In the

end, he refrained from saying anything.

“Speaking of which, Sheldon… I remember Bea telling me something before I left about a week ago… If I

remember correctly, she said that she wanted to help the Yalemans resolve the issue with the foreign loans… Did

she manage to resolve them with the Long family? Or did something happen to her before she even managed to

do anything?” asked Gerald as he lowered his bowl of soup at that moment.

“…Huh? Oh… No, Mr. Crawford… She… Wasn’t able to resolve it in time… The incident happened before she…

managed to do so,” replied Sheldon.

“I see. Go ahead and take a rest for now,” said Gerald as he smiled faintly.

“I will, Mr. Crawford. Do enjoy your soup while it’s hot…”

“Definitely!” replied Gerald as he watched Sheldon leave the room.

“I’ll investigate that old man immediately,” said Philip in a cold voice the moment Sheldon left.

Gerald himself looked at the soup before shaking his head.

“From what I’ve heard, that man’s always been honest and loyal his entire life… He’s quite diligent too, though he’s

a terrible, terrible liar… He must have done something extremely embarrassing for him not to be able to even bring

it up,” said Gerald as he dumped the bowl of soup into a nearby dustbin.

After experiencing so many things, Gerald was no longer the gullible and naïve person whom he used to be. After

all, he had already met so many wicked and vicious people who had put him in the most perilous of situations.

Despite that, he was still slightly reluctant to believe that those from the Yaleman family had a part in all this. While

he didn’t particularly have a good relationship with Rose and her family, in the end, they were still his elders.

It was the reason why he refused to take the first step until concrete evidence was found. In a perfect scenario, he

would very much have preferred the culprits to admit to their mistakes and consequently, correct them.

However, he knew that the possibility simply didn’t exist. After all, there were now clearly people who had gone so

far over the edge that they were willing to harm their own family members! It was almost as if they were forcing

Gerald to use vicious tactics on them on purpose for the sake of resolving the issue.

“There’s no need to investigate any further… Just force the truth out of them!” ordered Gerald.

Since they were now willing to directly harm him, Gerald was getting more and more worried about Bea’s safety.

Gerald had previously assumed that they wouldn’t harm Bea since they would still be able to gain the same benefits

by getting close to her. What more, they were still family in the end. Surely they wouldn’t do anything to actually

harm Bea, right?

As it turned out, harming her was a very possible scenario. In fact, there was now even a possibility that she was

already dead!

His assumption this time had fallen way too far off mark. The culprits definitely still had the drive to ruin both him

and Bea.

“Right away!” shouted Philip as he turned to look at the corner of the room with a stern gaze.

A few intimidating-looking subordinates of his had been standing there the entire time.

“Follow me!” growled Philip as he led them out of the room.
