The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 455
”F*ck! Gerald, we really got in!”Lilian breathed, stupefied.She barely showed any resistance, although Gerald was still hugging her waist.It was all only too exciting, now that the tables have turned.They were in the venue. Elena’s birthday banquet was exceptionally grand this time. This was mainly because Mr. Larson wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to host a large gathering for all the business owners too.As Hayward was from the Yorknorth Mountain, that automatically qualified him on the banquet attendees’ list.There were more than a hundred guests on the scene. Most were rich and young heirs, and there were many bosses too.The layout of the event was a bit similar to that of a wedding ceremony. There was a long aisle in the middle, and the banquet tables lined both sides of the aisle.Gerald managed to find a seat for both of them.After all, there were many people here, and most would just be casually looking for a place to sit with their friends.Hayw

Leila too introduced herself after everyone. She had learned a lot from these people. Leila always thought that the rich only talked about luxurious cars, but these people did not. Their discussions had a depth to them—money management and a healthy lifestyle, and Leila was very much impressed.Douglas, who loved to flaunt his wealth, or Gerald, of whom she thought was loaded by sheer luck, were nowhere to be compared to this sophisticated bunch of technocrats.Lilian was upset after listening to the manner in which Hayward spoke. She knew Gerald would not keep up to his self-proclaimed status since everyone there was well off. Hayward had been doing pretty well and knew many people. Thanks to that, Lilian couldn’t bear to raise her head, feeling as though today had been an utter failure.“When is Elena Larson coming?” quizzed a few young chaps. For most of them, it was their first time meeting Elena Larson, and they were very excited. Meanwhile, backstage. “Mr. Wadford, are

Gerald had not seen Elena in a while, and she seemed much prettier now. “Elena Larson is gorgeous!” a stunned Hayward exclaimed. Sharon, nonetheless, wasn’t jealous at all. She had to admit that Elena was a real beauty.“Of course, she is! Elena is Mr. Crawford’s godsister. She has to be!” Liam smiled. “Then why isn’t Mr. Crawford here, Liam?” Leila asked. She was really hoping to see who Mr. Crawford was. “Let me tell you why. My dad mentioned he’s someone who keeps a low profile and doesn’t like banquets and functions as such.” Liam explained as if he knew about Gerald very well. “Aw!” Leila was disappointed. “Hey Leila, would you like a drink? This fruit juice is imported, it’s excellent! Let me get you some!” Douglas was unhappy seeing Liam and Leila hitting off well. “I’m good. Just leave me be.” Leila frowned at Douglas and turned towards Liam again. “I need one, please!” A waiter passed by Lilian, and she reached out for a drink. Lilian was parched after w

Gerald tried to calm her down. “Who were these two? How did they even come in here? Did they know the rules?” exclaimed a middle-aged man from the other table. The entire room fell into a hushed whisper. It was nothing but plain rudeness stealing Elena’s limelight while she was still talking on stage. All the more, standing up while everyone else was seated must have caught the attention of the Larsons. Everyone’s attention then shifted back to the stage to see how Elena would react. Tears welled up in her eyes as she dropped the microphone in her hand.“You came!” Elena cried. Gerald cleaned his pants, and when he heard Elena’s voice, he realized she was looking right at him. “Yes. Happy birthday!” Gerald replied awkwardly.He looked around, realizing he didn’t actually bring any gifts for her except his car keys. “I’m sorry I didn’t manage to prepare anything for your birthday. I can only wish,” Gerald said apologetically.“I thought you’d forgotten me!” Elena wipe

“I turned off my phone, Ms. Weaver,” Lilian shouted as she ran toward Quartney. Since Hayward and the others were following them, she was afraid they might get exposed. The last time Gerald claimed the Ferrari was his, Sharon did not believe him. This time, she had to make it clear. She stomped over to Gerald and stood in front of Quartney. She glared at Lilian and asked, “What are you afraid of, Lilian?” “Ms. Weaver, right? Is this car rented by Lilian?” “Absolutely not!” Lilian tried to make eye contact with Ms. Weaver—it was apparent she was trying to hide something. Sharon snatched the contract from Ms. Weaver and laughed, “This is a rental! Look, Hayward! Oh, Ms. Jung and Douglas, let me humor you guys. I was having some coffee with Hayward today, and this girl called Lilian…” Sharon showed them the contract smugly while spilling the details from this morning’s incident.Hayward was envious of Gerald, but after what Sharon said, he felt terrible for Lilian again.

Gerald felt good about it, but Lilian didn’t resent Hayward at all. “Gerald, this car must’ve cost a bomb, right? It’s quite a sight!” Liam walked toward them and smiled at Gerald.No matter how much the rest mocked him, Liam knew that being friends with him would be advantageous since he personally knew Elena and drove such a luxurious car. “About 22,000 dollars!” Gerald replied, smiling politely. They both shook hands. Meanwhile, Liam’s phone rang. “Dad? Okay, I’ll go back now!” Liam hung up his phone. “Hey, Gerald. I’ll have to leave now; it’s really nice meeting you! I’m so sorry, Douglas and Leila, something came up, and I can’t take you guys home.” “Huh?” Leila was stunned. They were supposed to hitch a ride from Liam back home since Douglas did not dare drive his car. Meanwhile, Gerald had already started his car engine, and Lilian was sitting next to him. Douglas then turned to Leila and asked. “Leila, why not we take an Uber?” “Uber? Look at you, is ta

“Hey, dad!”Gerald called out respectfully, answering the video call.Although it wasn’t the first time he video called his father after discovering his true identity, Gerald had somewhat grown to be more respectful towards his father.He increasingly felt how honorable of a man his father was.“What are you up to now, son?”Gerald’s father broke into a smile the moment his son came on the screen.“Am just about to rest, Dad. What’s up with the late call? Anything you need to tell me?”“Yes, I do. I was initially planning to ask your sister to look into this matter. As I’m aware, you spend most of your time and energy, focusing on your homework. This thing will be delayed since your sister has gone to handle factory issues in North Africa. I wonder if she’d already told you about it?”“You need my help finding a woman?”Gerald recalled his sister’s instructions and what she confided in him previously. She had asked for his assistance in looking for a particular woman.“Yes, I

Throughout this whole time, both of them have occasionally been chatting with one another on WeChat whenever they were free.At present, Queta was already teaching at a new kindergarten and was doing pretty well.Gerald had helped Queta out and gave her a house to live in, where Drake and Tyson shared the same place with her. “Miss Smith, can you do me a favor? I can’t review these children’s homework in my class on time. My boyfriend is already on his way, picking me up to go shopping. Could you review their homework on my behalf?”A female teacher with waist-length hair asked Queta, who was also reviewing her students’ homework.“But Miss Lawrie, I’m still reviewing my own students’ homework too!”Queta replied shyly.“Pfft! If you’re not keen to help me, then just say it. Why come up with so many excuses? Don’t think for a second that you’re so great just because Mr. Teves introduced you to work here. Hah, just think about it! I mean, who are you, Queta Smith? You got crowne

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,

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
