Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1568
The two hadn’t met each other in years…
“…Gerald… You… You know all these people…?” asked the befuddled Leila.
How was any of this possible? All these people were international dignitaries! There was no way Gerald could be
acquainted with them, right?
“Them? Well, in a way…” replied Gerald rather indifferently as he turned to look at Chairman Chac.
“W-worry not, Mr. Crawford! I definitely won’t let him off that easily! I’ll teach him a good lesson for even daring to
disturb your peace!” stuttered the middle-aged man—whose forehead was already drenched in sweat—while
pointing at Frederick.
“C-come on! I dare you!” retorted Frederick who was honestly getting a little scared when he realized just how
many guards were present.
Turning to look at Leila once more, Gerald then said, “…Since she’s an old friend of mine, I’ll let tonight’s little
incident slide. However! There won’t be a next time! Now leave before I change my mind!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter saying that, Gerald cleared his throat before adjusting his clothes a little, signifying that the night was cold and
he wanted to be left alone already.
“…You… The hell do you think you are?! Do you think I’m someone you can just give orders all willy-nilly?!” shouted
the devastated Frederick.
He just couldn’t believe that something like this was happening, especially when the one in power was someone
close to his age! None of this felt convincing at all!
“Oh? You’re not planning to go even though I’ve allowed you to leave in one piece?” asked Gerald as he stared at
Frederick with a slight frown.
“Crawford, this may be your territory, but if you’re daring enough, why don’t you come along with me to Saudi
Arabia? I’ll make sure your life ends without even knowing what killed you! Mark my words!” growled Frederick
whose eyes were now reddened in rage.
Seeing that things weren’t getting any better and understanding that Frederick was only going to continue getting
more and more enraged, Leila simply looked helplessly at Gerald, shaking her head before saying, “That’s quite
enough, Gerald. Don’t you think you’ve acted tough enough already? Do you really not know how truly powerful the
Lynn family is? While I know you’re rich, the world is enormous, you know? How much of it have you even seen? I
hope you realize that there are many others who are more powerful than you. Do you truly think you’ll be able to
live peacefully after offending Young Master Lynn tonight?”
“Look, before I change my mind, you’d better drag your friends and that young master of yours out of here. I’ll say
it right now that Yanam is no longer a peaceful place, so you better not stay here any longer!” replied Gerald who
really couldn’t be bothered with them anymore.
Watching as he turned around and left, Leila’s anger instantly spiked, prompting the humiliated girl to growl, “Just
who do you think you are, Gerald? Do you even know what position I have now? You have no idea who I’m
acquainted with!”
Before the enraged girl could scowl any further, a young errand boy came running over to Carlos before politely
saying, “There are several major dignitaries waiting at the door, master! They said that they wished to meet with a
man here, and they’ve even brought along many precious gifts!”
“Major dignitaries? Who exactly are they?” asked Carlos with a frown.
“Most of them are royalties from the Middle East! As for the rest, they’re apparently nobles from South Asia!”

“…That… What?” said the shocked Leila to herself.
After the errand boy read out the names of all the dignitaries, Leila and Frederick found themselves momentarily
stunned speechless.
Her face twitching from all the shock, Leila eventually managed to find her voice again as she muttered, “…Who…
Who exactly is Gerald…? Why are all these bigwigs even coming over to see him…?”
Frederick himself was finally realizing what kind of person he had been messing around with earlier…
Now completely engulfed in fear, all of them instantly tried to leave.
However, before anyone could even make it past a few steps, Carlos placed his hand over Frederick’s shoulder
before sneering, “Hey now, little kid. You didn’t leave when we allowed you to. What’s the rush now?”
“W-what do you want…?” stuttered Frederick with a gulp.
“Well, since it’s against the rules of the Sacrasolis Palace to kill you, I won’t do so… However…” replied Carlos as he
turned to look at the hot springs where Frederick had poured the wine in earlier.
“Well, while you’re spared of the death penalty, it isn’t that easy for you to escape punishment… With that said, all
of you have to drink up all the water in this pool! Otherwise, I’ll make sure I toss all of you out in completely
mangled states!” added Carlos in a stern voice, a cold smile on his face.
