Semua Bab The Secretly Rich Man: Bab 1141 - Bab 1150

“Mr. Crawford?” muttered the women in surprise. “…Now where have I heard that name before… I can’t recall much about that person…” “Humph! I’ve done some investigating on him, and trust me when I say that you’ll all be terrified to death upon hearing what I found out about him!” replied Freya. “Go on…” “As I’ve said before, after asking around, I heard from some people that this Mr. Crawford person has an extremely powerful background! The fortune he owns is near-unimaginable for ordinary people, you know? In fact, he’s the kind of person who would be able to hand you any amount of money immediately should he allow you to request for any!” explained Freya as her eyes were filled with jealousy. “What? Could there truly be a rich heir like that?” asked a few of the present men with resentment in their voices, clearly jealous as well. “It’s all true! Not only is he rich, but he’s extremely capable as well! I’ll say it right now that he’s nowhere near comparable to any of you

“How dare you refuse to bow and greet the young lord when you see him!” shouted one of the old men. Gerald, however, didn’t respond to that. Instead, he simply continued staring at the young lord who was still sitting atop the palanquin. Throughout this entire time, the young lord had had his eyes closed, seemingly enjoying himself as he rested. “Hey, now! I asked you a question, didn’t I? How imprudent of you not to answer!” shouted the same old man as he took a step forward, ready to make a move. However, before he could even do anything, the old man’s eyes widened in astonishment as Gerald’s body disappeared into thin air! “…Hmm?!” grunted the old man as he was suddenly filled with immense fear. The next thing he knew, he felt a palm being placed on his shoulder extremely forcefully! The force was so overwhelming that he was unable to endure it for long. Seconds later, the old man fell to his knees, causing the ground under him to be crushed under Gerald’s immense force!

From how pained his voice had sounded as the young lord continued lying on the ground, it was almost as though he was thinking about some unspeakable grief. “…You… hate women?” inquired Gerald as he couldn’t help but stare coldly at the young lord. “You probably wouldn’t believe me even if I explained it to you… After all, from the moment I was born, I’ve always only been known as the high and mighty young lord of the Holy Witchcraft… While everyone tends to get jealous of me, I can safely say that throughout the years, I’ve never truly been happy… You know, I’ve hated that woman ever since I was young… Because of her, I ended up hating all other women! The woman in question… She was my mother!” explained the young lord. Upon hearing that, Gerald felt his eyelids twitch slightly. He had never heard of anyone claiming to resent their mother as strongly as the young lord had… After all, who on this planet wouldn’t love the one who had birthed them? However, Gerald could sense tha

Hearing that, Jasmine turned to look at Gerald rather doubtfully. It was only a little while later when she realized that the one ruthless and arrogant young lord had now truly surrendered to Gerald. “I apologize for all the mistakes I’ve made! I truly am sorry!” said Chester as he repeatedly lowered his head till his forehead touched the ground. While she had initially wanted to kill him, after seeing how miserable he was, Jasmine simply replied, “…There’s no need to apologize any further to me… Instead, you should be apologizing to those who you’ve hurt. After all, while my family has made it through this daunting experience without mishap, that isn’t the case for the other families… Regardless, if it’s punishment you seek, then I’ll let Gerald make the final say! His words will be as good as mine!” After saying that, Jasmine then turned to look at Gerald. Women were sometimes like this. While Jasmine had first been uncertain whether she really had fallen for Gerald, when s

‘They seemed to have come with a purpose in mind… The master seems to know who they are as well.’ ‘The master flew up and entered the flying house to discuss something with them… But none of us know what they’re talking about…’ ‘They’ve negotiated for quite some time… Some time while they were negotiating, the flying house submerged below the waves, bringing master along with it…’ ‘Night has come… We’re all tossing and turning, barely able to sleep… All we can do now is guard the fairy’s corpse…’ ‘It’s late at night now, and it’s my turn to stand guard… Including me, my group had nine people…’ ‘…I’m writing this after that terrifying event… The incident that changed my fate forever…’ ‘While we were standing guard, the fairy suddenly came alive! Standing in front of us, her expression was livid as she coldly asked us where we were taking her to…’ ‘Not daring to play any games, we truthfully told her all that we knew… Upon hearing our explanation, she was infuriated!
