The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 124
”Hello, Gerald. So Mila told me your family is running a business. What sort of business is your family doing, if I may ask?”Rita quizzed as her arms were still tightly folded across her chest.“Oh, well, all sorts really, just into different businesses and industries.”To be honest, it was a question Gerald never really knew how to answer.After all, his sister always mentioned that their family had too many different ventures. Basically, the family is involved in almost half of the world’s capital or industries.Plus, he came from a huge family whose businesses had been passed down for hundreds of years.Jessica did not exactly share much about their family.Hence with only limited knowledge about his family, he could only answer those questions from others very generally.“There seems to be no solid answer at all, eh? It’s so confusing!”Rita shook her head as she smiled wryly.“I heard that Mila and you met when the both of you were learning how to drive. You must have a

”A jade ring!”“What a filial man you are, Kenneth! The value of this jade ring is worth at least ten to twelve thousand dollars! Tsk tsk tsk!”Everyone could not help but continue to exclaim in admiration.After all, it was really very filial of a boyfriend to give his girlfriend’s grandmother a piece of jade ring for her birthday.“Alright, alright. Irene, hurry up and ask Kenneth to sit down!”Her grandmother was so elated upon receiving the ring that she couldn’t even keep her mouth closed anymore. She couldn’t even bear to put the ring down.The more she looked at Kenneth, the more she liked him.Even Irene’s father felt immensely proud at that very moment.In fact, the reason why everyone gathered here today to celebrate and congratulate the golden lady for her birthday, wasn’t just merely to show filial piety.That was just, but a small part.The larger reason was the fact that the old lady was still holding onto all the assets that were left behind by the old man when

Helen started probing about her daughter’s boyfriend’s identity but Mila refused to reveal anything.She simply told them to be patient and cooperate.Gavin and Helen couldn’t understand what she was thinking either.“Mom, look, Mila’s here!”At that very moment, Mila gingerly took Gerald by her side as they breezed through the crowd of people.They would’ve reached much earlier if it weren’t for Gerald who needed to use the bathroom.“Wow, our niece, Mila is really getting so much prettier!”“Look! Is the person holding Mila’s hand her boyfriend?”“Who’s this guy? Whose son is he? Why haven’t I heard of him before?”“Anyway, that guy is really blessed!”A group of relatives and friends pointed at him.“It’s him!”When Helen saw Gerald, her eyes widened in disbelief.No wonder her daughter kept refusing to reveal who her boyfriend was. It turned out to be none other than this intolerable young man!That’s right. If Mila had told her about this, it would be impossible for

”I didn’t bring a gift.”Gerald could not help but offer a regretful smile.He originally wanted to prepare a gift for her grandmother but Mila stopped him. She felt that the both of them could just give her grandmother one gift and naturally she would look for the gift herself.Hence the reason Gerald turned up empty handed today.He simply came to attend the birthday banquet to make Mila’s grandmother happy. Who would have known that Irene would deliberately bring this up to make things difficult for him?“What? He did not bring a gift? I thought that Mila’s boyfriend would be bringing something valuable along with him too!”“Isn’t Mila’s boyfriend also a rich second generation? Logically speaking, he should also be well-versed with basic etiquette and manners. This is the first time that he’s meeting her grandmother, but he did not bring anything with him at all?”“He definitely falls short compared with Irene’s boyfriend, Kenneth!”Hush whispers and mumbling echoed amongst

Gossip is a fearful thing.And suddenly, it was as though there were countless strange voices in Gerald’s ears.Everyone was staring at Gerald in a completely different light. “Okay! So this young kid is lying to our Mila?”Rita had an atrocious temper. She immediately stood up before raising her voice to Gerald coldly.The old lady’s face also turned unmistakably sour at that point.Irene glanced at Kenneth before giving off a sardonic smile. She was immensely satisfied being able to release all of her hatred and resentment!Rita turned to Mila and asked: “Mila, didn’t you say that Gerald just bought a BMW 7 Series? I already sensed that something wasn’t right earlier. Gerald could’ve just driven here but he did not do so. Let me ask you, have you ever seen his BMW for yourself?”Mila was speechless because she did not know what to say.“BMW 7 Series? Rita, we have a total of three BMW branches in the whole of Mayberry City. It has been a while that we have not been sellin

As everyone started chattering away, one after the other, Rita suddenly received a phone call. Her face lightened with joy as she squealed, “What, sister? You have already arrived at the airport? Didn’t you say that you will not be able to make it back for grandma’s birthday? Ahh? Okay! Okay! Okay! I will come and pick you right now!”Hanging up right away, Rita said, “Grandma, my sister will be arriving in a bit. She came back all the way from M country and she is already waiting at the airport now!”“Oh that child, Cara...alright. I knew that she would definitely be back…” The old lady smiled as she immediately said: “Then Mason…Mason you can go and pick Cara up! You may go alone. I want Queenie to stay and accompany me.”“Okay, grandma!”Mason smiled as he waved, clutching the BMW sports car key in his hand before quickly excusing himself.Mila’s face was clouded with disappointment.Cara was Rita’s sister.Ever since childhood, Mila had always had the best relationship wit
The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 130
When Gerald walked over, the entire Smith family was already gathered here.Concurrently, Mason was explaining the situation:“Dad, I really didn’t mean it. This is all this security guard’s fault! I was relying on his directions and he kept telling me to reverse. That’s when I crashed into the car!”“This car is the most expensive car produced by Lamborghini. It will cost at least a hundred to a hundred and twenty thousand dollars to fix the damages caused by this accident. Plus, the car’s front lamps are already broken!”Some of the relatives who recognized this car could not help but exclaim out loud.“Whoever is driving this car is definitely not just anybody. We can definitely afford to pay that price to fix the damages. But we might also be offending a very powerful figure. On top of that, this looks like it’s a new car that someone just bought!”“Just think about it. In Mayberry City, which son of which wealthy and influential family would be able to drive this kind of spo
The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 131
After saying that, Gerald walked up to the car to take a look.He would be lying if he said that he wasn’t distressed at the sight of his broken car at all.Moreover, what could he possibly do now? What has happened, has happened. Plus it was Mila’s grandmother’s birthday banquet today.If he demanded them to pay for the damages incurred, what would it make Mila look like?Besides that, it was also have been too embarrassing. Out of no choice, he was left to bottle his bitter sufferings in silence.And with that, Gerald could only ask them to carry on whatever they were doing. He could perhaps later on drive his car to the 4S shop to fix the damages.“Who do you think you are? Do you think that everything will be okay just because you say that it’s okay?”“Those who don’t know any better would actually think that you are actually Mr. Crawford from Mayberry Commercial Street. Let’s only talk about all these when you finally reach that point in life!”“Exactly! If we leave righ

Watching in fury as his black air blade dissipated, Daryl roared, “W-what power…!” As Daryl was too shocked to move, Gerald took the chance to yell, “Attack…!” And just like that, a blazing light momentarily lit the entire sky…! As surges of energy shot out in all directions, Daryl’s devilish formation was reduced to dust in a matter of seconds! “No…!” howled the anguished Daryl as the earth beneath him cracked and clouds of dust flew everywhere! It was chaos incarnate… yet moments later, everything fell deathly silent. Gerald himself had already vomited a pool of blood by now, and as he fell unconscious, he could feel his body freezing up… Fast forward to three years later, Mayberry Commercial Street was as lively as ever… “Darling, it’s your brother’s wedding day today… Shouldn’t we head over earlier? You’ve been dolling yourself up for ages!” “Fine, dad… Though, isn’t Second Uncle already there to help set things up? That aside, my brother’s gone through so many hardsh

‘Daryl’s been possessed by the Supreme Devilish Lord for ages, and the lord himself has been using your grandfather’s body to attempt his resurrection! This cycle has been repeating for years, and the Supreme Devilish Lord has already captured many people with Yin physiques but thankfully failed! This grew so out of hand that the Soluna Deus Sect, or Sun League as you call them, have actively been trying to force the Supreme Devilish Lord to show himself!’ ‘In order to further deter the Supreme Devilish Lord’s efforts, they’ve even been kidnapping people with Yin physiques! Do you see the entire picture now, boy?’ explained Finnley. ‘…So that’s the truth… Then, how’s Mila?’ asked Gerald. ‘She’s fine, but your reunion depends on whether we can destroy him this time!’ replied one of the white-robed ladies. That was relieving to hear… Still, as it turned out, the Sun League weren’t villains at all! They had simply been abducting people like his second uncle, Mila, and Leo for the

His chest felt like it was exploding, and it didn’t take long for blood to spurt out of his mouth. What immense devilish power…! Following a sneer, the Nirvadevil sect’s master scoffed, “I know you raised your cultivation level this high because you want to learn more about the Sun League, but you should understand that devilish cultivators will always be stronger! Did you really think that acquiring the angelic inheritance would give you absolute power? How laughable! Your Herculean Primordial Spirit won’t save you this time!” Furrowing his brows, Gerald retorted, “…Who on earth are you? How do you know me so well? In fact, how do you know about my Herculean Primordial Spirit?” Laughing in response, the master then said, “Oh, you’ll know who I am soon! But before that, allow me to snatch your Herculean Primordial Spirit! I need to destroy it so that the sacred Primordial Devilish Internal Pellet can reign supreme…!” Upon hearing that, Gerald couldn’t help but frown even more.

“…This formation. It feels… familiar,” muttered Sanchez. “Same thought here. I think it’s the Septelic Perishment Formation of the ancient Black Dragon Sect!” replied Gerald. “Ah, no wonder it felt so familiar… Though, wasn’t this formation lost to time ages ago? How did you learn of it?” asked the surprised Sanchez. The formation had been a legendary one that, as Sanchez had said, had been lost at the end of the ancient era. Just from its name alone, one could imagine that this immensely powerful formation had been used against the people of the Deitus Realm. In the end, however, the allies of the Deitus Realm still managed to destroy the Black Dragon Sect, thus leading to the destruction of all the sect’s other mysterious and bizarre formations… Naturally, they had made sure to obliterate all of them to ensure that nobody in the future would be able to threaten them like that again in the future… Whatever the case was, Gerald was quick to reply, “I read about it somewhere. Ho

Upon hearing Gerald’s question, Lord Ethern was prompted to reveal a few samples of the herbs they were locating… and it wasn’t long before Gerald felt his eyes twitch. After all, those samples were herbs inherited by the ancient witches… In other words, they were the ones he was for as well! Naturally, Marcel recognized them as well, and he was quick to say, “…These…” Noticing how the two were looking at the herbs, Darkwind muttered, “…I take it that the herbalist they’re looking for really is Ms. Phoebe, Mr. Crawford?” “…Well, it’s hard to say if she is since Marcel already said that the timing wasn’t right… Regardless, this is an important clue. Lord Ethern, was it? Could you elaborate a bit more on your master?” muttered Gerald as he turned to face the man again. “I really can’t say…! Look, Master always appears before us in a shadowy form, so none of us have ever seen his face!” replied Lord Ethern while shaking his head. “…Is that the truth?” “I swear on my life!” exc

“Flaxen, you bloody traitor…!” roared the three other lords who grew so angry that their faces went red!However, they had no time to remain angry since the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez had already made their move! As one would expect, it only took a single round for all three of the lords to crumble to the ground.With his eyes wide open, Lord Ethern stuttered, “Who… Who the hell are you people…?!”“You don’t need to know that information. That aside, tell us what you four are planning to do already,” scoffed Gerald as he slowly approached the three defeated men.“…Who the hell do you think you are? What makes you think I’ll comply so easily?” growled Lord Ethren.Upon hearing that, Gerald raised his hand… and within a split second, Lord Ethern let out a bone-chilling wail. The Blancetnoir Double Lords had just snapped both of the poor man’s arms!“If you want your other limbs intact, don’t make me repeat the question,” growled Gerald.Now terrified, the agonized man replied,

From what Gerald could tell, all of them were devilish cultivators. After all, their auras were way different compared to regular cultivators like Gerald and demonic cultivators like Sanchez. Though he had read about devilish cultivators before in one of Uncle Zeman’s books, this was his first time actually coming across them. It was a while later when the frowning Sanchez muttered, “So, they want to ambush some herb lady… Is she the one we’re looking for?” Sanchez, for one, had pretty much been frowning throughout his journey with Gerald. His only hope at the moment was for Gerald to find the person he was looking for as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew how long that boy would continue controlling his life! Regardless, Marcel was quick to add, “I had the same thought, Mr. Crawford. After all, Phoebe excels not only in pharmacology, but also in all sorts of special techniques and formations!” Watching as Gerald nodded, the Blancetnoir Double Lords couldn’t help but scoff,
The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 2506
There were two straightforward purposes of the trip. The first was to find Phoebe, the descendant of the ancient witches. Only by finding her would Gerald have a chance to locate Daryl’s hideout… Hopefully the Yinblood pellet—that was now in his hands—would aid with that effort… As for the second goal, he was hoping to retrieve the inheritance according to the Zearl’s instructions. After all, he’d only stand a fighting chance against Daryl and the Soluna Sect after getting the inheritance. While it was true that Gerald’s cultivation level was currently one of the highest in all of the cultivation realm, the fact remained that Daryl practiced devilish cultivation, and those from the Soluna Deus Sect were already in the Deitus Realm. In other words, he was merely an ant to them, which was why he was making sure to fully prepare himself before confronting them. Though he now had Sanchez and the Blancetnoir Double Lords under his command, he still felt that he was underprepared… Re

Now that all three of them had been subdued with the Nineraid Band, the other big shot cultivators couldn’t help but stare enviously at Gerald, knowing full well that they’d never be able to obtain his angelic artifacts. After all, if he could take down the Blancetnoir Double Lords and Sanchez, then what chance did they have? By this point, Sanchez had managed to get to his feet, albeit with quite a bit of difficulty. Naturally, he no longer dared to make any rash moves on Gerald. Instead, he was prompted to resentfully say, “You’re really something else, Gerald…! It makes me wonder why you still need our help. After all, not only are you the sole person who knows the secrets of the general’s tomb, but you also possess those angelic artifacts!” “Oh, don’t you worry about that. With how powerful you three are, I’m sure you’ll become indispensable assistants as we head to the North Desert in search of a certain someone! Speaking of which, if you’re already thinking about killing me t
