Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 823

“The Northbay territorial waters is a very large area to cover. It has already been so long. Mila, perhaps she…”

After listening to Gerald’s account of everything that had happened, Giya was both visibly shocked and also worried.

When Giya saw the dark expression on Gerald’s face, she refrained from saying anything unnecessary.

There was no explanation for the emotions Giya was feeling right now.

Although she had been Mila’s rival before this, Giya had to admit that she really was a good girl and she really loved

Gerald very much.

Surprisingly, Giya felt upset to hear that something horrible had happened to Mila.

But aside from these sad emotions, Giya also felt a hint of excitement.

She knew that it was not right of her to have any other ideas at a time like this. However, it was impossible for her

to resist such an urge.

Gerald did not stay with Giya for a long time.

Gerald appeared to be rather dejected after they started speaking about Mila.

He returned to his room after a brief exchange.

Gerald would be going back to the Yaleman family mansion to visit his grandmother at noon tomorrow.

The next day, in the meeting room of the Yaleman family mansion in Yanken.

Every member of the Yaleman family was gathered here.

The Yaleman Group was a family business and subsequently, the executive members of said group were all

members of the Yaleman family.

Such business meetings were the norm.

“The Yaleman family is becoming more and more desolated in recent years. We used to be the top family amongst

the big four families. What about now? Why don’t all of you take a good look at the Yaleman family’s annual

revenue? Even though we are considered by many as a member of the top three families, do you really think we

can be labeled as such?”

An old woman in her eighties spoke with a sonorous and powerful voice.

She glanced coldly at her descendants and grandchildren.

She slammed her walking cane loudly against the floor.

“I am already getting older and older and I do not know when I will leave this world. How can I possibly feel okay

with leaving our assets in your hands? Answer me! How?!” The old lady said.

She was Lady Yaleman, the head of the Yaleman family and also the chairwoman of the Yaleman Group.

Lady Yaleman used to be a well-known career woman in Yanken. However, as the years finally caught up to her, she

began to retreat from the limelight and was only working in the background for the past couple of years. Aside

from making the major decisions for the company, she was no longer involved in running the business.

It was precisely because of this that there was a serious internal struggle and a never-ending conflict between the

younger generation of descendants who were also senior executives of the company. The kids have divided

themselves into various factions and the Yaleman family rules and discipline had been on a steady decline ever

since.

Lady Yaleman’s descendants and grandchildren all bowed their heads upon hearing her words.

“Answer me!”

Lady Yaleman slammed her hand on the table angrily and her face had already turned purple in anger.

“Mom, don’t get angry!” The eldest son, Yuma spoke up at this time, “As for our family matters, we are also trying

to catch up with the Long and Quarrington families. However, when it comes to comprehensive personal

connections, the Yaleman family still pales in comparison to those folks!”

“We were not even able to make a bid in the real estate business for the three big families. This is the biggest

reason why both the Long family and the Quarrington family are rapidly overtaking the Yaleman family!” Yuma

replied.

“Bidding! Bidding! Since you already know what our weakness is, why didn’t you devote your time and energy to

strengthening our family and expanding your network and connections instead? In the past ten years, the Long

family and the Quarrington family have been able to gain so many projects precisely because of their ties to the

Trustdeck Group. Why can’t we do the same? Did you send anyone to do that?”

Lady Yaleman asked as she poked Yuma’s head.

The rest of her sons and daughters covered their mouths as they giggled secretly to themselves.

“What are you laughing at?! Why don’t all of you take a good look at yourselves? The older and younger generation

are all equally unpromising!”

At this time, Lady Yaleman turned around and glared at Yura who had a bandage over his head.

Lady Yaleman said angrily, “Just take a look at all of you! I doubt that I’ll even be able to make it to my own birthday

banquet tomorrow!”

At this time.

The door of the meeting room was pushed open.

A middle-aged servant walked in respectfully.

“Ma’am, the luncheon is ready!”

Lady Yaleman took a deep breath before she lowered her tone and said, “If there are no other ways, then try to

come up with a solution! It is useless for us to only complain about it. Alright then, let’s go and eat our reunion

lunch now!”

According to their tradition, they would always eat a reunion meal together after every family meeting.

Everyone exchanged some words with one another before they entered the living room.

When they arrived, they saw a young man and a young woman sitting on the sofa.

“Hmph! Isn’t that Bea? It’s already noon and she did not even bother with attending the family meeting! To think

that she’d been sitting here the entire time! Oh? It looks like she brought a young man here with her too! Has she

gotten herself a boyfriend?”
