Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1272

Due to Gerald having such a powerful weapon on him, the nine people had momentarily fled for fear that Gerald

would end up killing them instead.

It was only after they made their escape that they recalled that Gerald wasn’t able to properly control the jade

pendant’s power yet. As all nine of them slowly recovered their strength, they each thought about stealing the

pendant off Gerald before taking him away.

With their mind made up, all of them began making their way toward Mountain Top the moment their strength fully

recovered. However, both parties truly hadn’t expected to bump into each other on their way there.

Being enemies, they naturally fought and bickered the entire way there.

“How unlucky we are to meet you again! Regardless, we’ll certainly be the ones who’ll end up getting our hands on

both Gerald and that jade pendant!”

After continuing to bicker for quite a while, all nine of them swiftly made it past the restricted area on Mountain Top.

Several of the bodyguards noticed their speedy entry and instantly grew frightened. With that, they immediately

informed their superiors about what they had just witnessed.

By the time the guards were done passing the message on, the group of people had already arrived at the top of

the mountain in no time flat.

“So you’ve finally appeared!” shouted Chester as they approached the cave’s entrance.

Chester had been sitting cross-legged and on guard atop the mountain for days, and when he saw the nine people,

a strong sense of resentment was reflected in his eyes. Of course, his hatred amplified the second he saw Tiara.

“You traitor! Still, I really hadn’t expected Gerald to have the ability to restore both your sanity and consciousness!”

scoffed Tiara, murderous intent in her eyes.

Clenching his fist, Chester then retorted, “The fact that he’s done so means that Mr. Crawford has granted me the

opportunity to take my revenge!”

Though the old woman standing before him was his own grandmother, Tiara had never once regarded Chester as

her grandson at all. In fact, he was pretty sure that she had only ever seen him as nothing more than a dog.

She didn’t even hesitate to kill him and turn him into a monster that was barely even human! To Tiara, once a dog,

always a dog, and that made Chester hate her even more.

“Hah! Take revenge? I guess you now have the same mindset as Gerald after following him around so much! To

think that you’re actually daring enough to even consider taking revenge on me, Chester! I see how it is! And here I

thought that you’d finally be useful for once after I turned you into a killing machine with witchcraft! Yet here you

are, planning to betray me! Since that’s the case, I’ll just kill you again and make sure all your limbs are ripped from

your body!” scowled Tiara with a murderous look in her eyes.

“No matter how one-sided it is, I’m still going to fight you! I won’t allow any of you to take a single step inside, even

if I have to die trying!” declared Chester fearlessly as he got to his feet.

“Hahaha! Say, you old witch! Do you need our help clearing the path for you? If you do, then we’ll hand Gerald over

to you as a bonus! However, we’ll be taking the jade pendant with us! How’s that sound? Regardless, he seems to

be right inside the cave before us!” said one of the men with a grin.

“Dream on! I’m getting my hands on Gerald, the pendant, and also this traitor today!” retorted Tiara, a malicious

smile formed on her face.

The second her sentence ended, her expression instantly turned terrifying as she dashed toward Chester! Her

movements were so swift that Chester was only able to go on the defensive.

It certainly didn’t help that Gerald’s pendant had suppressed quite a bit of his strength. Due to that, Chester’s

combative abilities were much worse compared to before.

Finding gaps in his defense, Tiara managed to land several hits on Chester’s chest, causing the youth to fly

backward! His body ended up colliding with a boulder—which then shattered from the impact—and the second that

happened, Chester immediately began vomiting blood!

Despite Tiara using all of her strength in that deadly attack, the bloody-faced Chester still managed to get to his

feet, albeit a bit shakily.

“…You… You can only enter over my dead body…!” shouted Chester whose resolute white eyes contrasted his now-

reddened face.

“Heh! He’s still standing after you used such a deadly attack on him, old witch! You sure you don’t need our help?”

mocked one of the eight men. The men themselves had been standing at the side, their arms crossed as they

watched the show.

“Silence! I only need one final attack! He’ll surely die once I break off all the meridians in his body!” shouted Tiara

as she prepared to land her finishing blow.

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Chester was sure that this was his end when suddenly, he heard a voice shouting, “Fight

back!”

The voice itself seemed like it came from right beside his ears… No. It felt like… it came from within himself.
