Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 977

Under the moonlight, Gerald could see the man running faster and faster on the grassy and leaf-covered ground,

leaving a trail of rustling noises behind him.

The gentle rustling signified how light the man’s steps were, and he honestly looked like he was almost gliding

across the grass rather than running over it.

While Gerald had to admit that the man in black’s skill was top-notch, there was still a big gap between that man’s

and his.

‘You’re still trying to escape…?’ Gerald thought to himself as he let out a tiny sneer.

Gerald then kicked a branch off the ground with the tip of his shoe and, with extreme precision, he flicked it with his

finger, sending it flying toward the running man as though Gerald had just fired an arrow!

It wasn’t long before the branch connected with the man’s back, creating a loud ‘thud’! The impact of the branch

was so great that the man in black found himself rolling on the ground several times till he eventually rolled down

the mountain slope!

To Gerald’s surprise, when he went over to inspect the rightfully injured man, the man in black was nowhere to be

seen! No traces of him ever being there were left behind either!

‘How strange… How could he have just simply vanished into thin air?’

He could only frown at his own carelessness as he continued searching around the area. After a while, Gerald

realized that there truly was nothing left behind so he silently left the area.

Elsewhere, a hotel room’s door squeaked open as a figure staggered in before collapsing in the bathroom.

Blood was flowing out of the person’s arm as they finally removed their mask, revealing the person’s beautiful face

and long, black hair. Her dark hair honestly made her face look all the more paler.

‘How truly amazing!’ The woman thought to herself as she gasped to catch her breath before getting some gauze

and beginning to wrap her wound up.

In just the blink of an eye, the third day came and it was finally time for the open auction to begin.

Though things had appeared calm on the surface in the past few days, it was evident that the peace was only a

façade.

After all, throughout the three days, several of the forces had been busy engaging in countless secret battles and

rivalries.

From assaults to kidnapping incidents, anyone who seemed like a competitor to be worried about was dealt with

swiftly.

The biggest danger, of course, came from the major forces who had no issues with going on killing sprees.

Due to their honorary receptions, Lyra and many others were just sitting ducks in this event. However, due to

Gerald’s protection, he managed to foil all of their plans, which included both kidnapping and assault attempts.

Things definitely weren’t as fine and dandy as they appeared. However, on the day of the open auction, it was as

though nothing had ever taken place under the peaceful façade.

In fact, all the major forces appeared to be beaming with joy as they brought their men over to participate in the

auction.

Apart from the mysterious Lyra, the Takena family and Thunderous Dragon Inc. from the north of M Country

seemed to have the strongest reputations and power among everyone else.

As for the layout of the auction site, it was set in the open-air front yard of the mountain villa. A large stage had

been set up there and rows upon rows of seats had been prepared for the guests.

Though the Yowells themselves were the organizers of the event, they weren’t qualified to sit on the platform.

Instead, those from that family were all seated on the row of seats right below the stage.

The eighteen strongest forces were all seated up front, and the remaining forces simply sat behind them.

Aside from the bidders themselves, tens of thousands of onlookers were also present. The crowd of people stood

around the bidders and it was honestly extremely lively then.

As Heidi—who was wearing a formal dress—delivered a speech for the auction on stage, Tulip called out to her

classmates, “Hey! Specky! Nicole! Over here! I reserved some seats for you!”

Hearing that, the two and a few others quickly went to where Tulip was.

They made sure to greet their teacher as well as they passed by him. As a member of the Yowell family, Gerald

naturally had to attend the event today. However, he simply chose to sit at a corner.

“Are you really going to continue spending the rest of your life with that guy, Juliet…?”

The question had come from one of Juliet’s many friends whom she had invited over.
