Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 285
“Geez! I wonder who messed with Damien Rye, I guess it won’t end well for that person today!”
The taxi driver was clearly in shock while he was driving.
It was apparent that he knew Damien Rye and had heard of his name before.
Gerald was a little confused. “Who is Damien Rye and where did he come from? Is he more powerful even than
Flynn Lexington from Mayberry Commercial Street?”
Gerald asked the driver.
After taking a peek at the back of the car, it seemed like Damien did not follow them. Gerald let out a sigh of relief.
“Ahem, how do I put it… Flynn Lexington is indeed a powerful figure in Mayberry, he has the entire Mayberry
International Inc. behind his back. As for Damien Rye, he’s from the Rye family, one the wealthiest families in
Mayberry. He’s the cousin of Henry Rye, the former head of Rye Group. Although Mayberry International Inc. is the
first, it’s still a foreign company that has been established in Mayberry for just over ten years. On the other hand,
Rye Group is different. It has been here for forty years, and the Ryes, a local mafia family, has deep roots here in
Mayberry.”

Group and Mayberry International seem to get along pretty well!”
The driver was like a chatterbox who would not stop talking once he opened his mouth.
As the driver introduced the Ryes to him, Gerald started to recall his past memories, especially about Henry Rye.
He remembered he once had a brief encounter with the Ryes before.
But when was that?
Why did both Chad and Danny Xanders disappear from Mayberry? What made Alice cry so much that she would not
dare to come out of her dormitory? In the end, not even her parents could do anything, and they had to seek help
from Zack Lyle to resolve the issue.
He remembered while they were dining in Royal Dragon Villa, Henry Rye’s second-generation rich son, William Rye,
flirted with Alice and Jacelyn while being drunk.
Then, Danny ordered his people to teach William a lesson.
Which led to the Rye family’s retaliation.
He did not ask Luke for any help. Instead, Zack was the one who stepped in to mediate the matter which involved
Alice and Jacelyn.
The Ryes let them go.
However, Gerald also remembered clearly that Zack used to warn him on keeping an eye out for his own safety
and to conceal his identity and so on.
There was no doubt that Mayberry International Inc. was indeed the largest company in Mayberry, but that did not
mean that every other company would be intimidated by them.
After all, they only knew that the company was run by her sister, Jessica. They were unaware of Jessica’s terrifying
past, so the local underground mafias were not afraid of her.
They did not even miss the chance to use tactics to sabotage the company.
For instance, Gerald and Mila Smith were once kidnapped, and Zack had no choice but to make a phone call directly
to Henry Rye, begging him to let them go.
He knew Henry Rye was up to no good.
It was pretty obvious how dangerous the Ryes were in the eyes of Zack Lyle.
It turned out that Damien Rye was the cousin of Henry Rye, which proved how powerful the Ryes were!
As he sat in the car, Gerald could not help but ponder over the matter.
He was not afraid of finding trouble. Worse-case scenario, he will seek Jessica’s help and lean on the power the
family holds to resolve the issue. After all, no matter how powerful the Ryes were, the Crawfords can still easily
crush them with just their fingers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat Gerald can do for now was to get his phone repaired and contact Zack Lyle.
Gerald brought Wynn and Minnie to where Queta Smith and the others lived.
The place was extremely remote.
So remote that Damien would not be able to track them here for a while.
“Big brother Gerald, you’re here!”
“Hey kids, where’s Yasmin?”
Once he set foot inside, Danny and Edmund, who were doing laundry, immediately rushed to his side.
“She’s inside making dinner with Queta!”
In just a short while, Queta and Yasmin came out of the house.
Gerald did not go too deep into the details, he simply explained that Wynn and her daughter were staying for the
night. Queta was fine with it, and immediately cleaned up a place for Wynn.
Wynn was also touched when Gerald told her that Queta had adopted the three children.
Maybe it was because she was also a single mother raising a child by herself, Wynn felt an immediate sense of
connection with Queta. The two chatted with each other like long-lost best friends.
After Gerald had settled things down, he went to a nearby mobile phone mall by himself and quickly changed a new
phone.
Otherwise, things would get delayed.
The standalone mobile phone mall was huge, and there were all sorts of well-known mobile phone brands available.
