Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1139
As Kort finished speaking, he had already broken out in cold sweat.
Linus took a deep breath at this time.
As Kort was a guest that the Holy Witchcraft had sent to the Yonwick family, Kort would naturally have spoken about
some of his painful past experiences while they were chatting amongst themselves.
This was especially so for this Mr. Crawford, who had slaughtered several big and prestigious families, one after the
other. Linus felt even more fearful at this time.
This was because based on Kort’s description of this particular Mr. Crawford, he might look very honest on the
surface, but he was actually very narrow-minded and revengeful.
As long as anyone provoked him, he would certainly go to the ends of the earth to track the person down and settle
the score with him.
To put it bluntly, as soon as he provoked this man, he would never be able to live in peace for the rest of his life if he
did not give Gerald a satisfactory answer.
At that time, Linus had also secretly reminded himself that he should never mess with such people.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnexpectedly, what he feared the most would truly happen.
Presently, he had a very shocked and terrified expression on his face.
As for Jasmine, she was also staring at Gerald with a shocked and startled expression on her face.
“Mr. Crawford, I was ignorant, and I unintentionally offended you because of that. I have already heard of your
great reputation from a long time ago!”
Linus hurriedly bowed respectfully at a ninety-degree angle, and his face had already turned pale at this time.
Several of Layton’s friends also swallowed as they took a step back.
The people at the side were pointing at them with fearful expressions on their faces.
“Who is that man?! Why is Mr. Yonwick so afraid of him?”
“That’s right. Even that extraordinary master knelt in front of him immediately when he saw him! Who could he
possibly be?!”
Everyone talked amongst themselves.
“So, can my friends leave with me now?” Gerald asked casually.
“Yes… yes, but Mr. Crawford, it was not our intention to threaten and blackmail Miss Jasmine. It was the young lord
from the Holy Witchcraft who had taken a liking to Miss Jasmine, but she turned him down and refused to agree to
the match. So, the young lord ordered us to capture her family members and use them to threaten her instead!”
“Although the Yonwick family has a great reputation and career on Montholm Island, to put it bluntly, we are
nothing more than puppets of the Holy Witchcraft. We had no choice but to do so!” Linus hurriedly explained.
“If you put it that way, are you saying that you are not only a good person, but that you are also a victim, then?”
Gerald asked as he glared coldly at him.
As soon as Gerald made his remark, Linus could not help but feel a little startled as he broke out in cold sweat.
He was so frightened that he was completely at a loss for words.
Linus honestly did not expect that Gerald would be so wise and sophisticated at such a young age. Indeed, how
could he even be considered a good person?
“So many people are seeking after the Holy Witchcraft, but the people from the Holy Witchcraft are actually doing
this kind of vicious and despicable thing! It seems as though it is not worthy of its name at all!”
After speaking, Gerald looked at Kort, who was being quiet, and he asked, “It seems as though you have taken
refuge with the Holy Witchcraft. So, what kind of religion is this? Also, what is the background and origins of this
young lord that you are talking about?”
Kort naturally did not dare to hide the truth from Gerald, and he hurriedly explained, “The Holy Witchcraft has
nearly a hundred years of history, and it has a very strong foundation on Montholm Island. The internal members of
the organization are very complicated, and I… I have no way of getting close to the internal core members of the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHoly Witchcraft either. However, I used to be an elder of the Holy Witchcraft many years ago, and I begged them to
take me in. As for the other internal core members of the organization, their whereabouts and identities are all
concealed. Of course, the young lord is an exception. On the contrary, he is very high-profile!”
Kort paused for a moment before he said, “Although this young lord is highly sought after and worshipped by many,
he is an overall villain who would rape, commit adultery, and also commit all sorts of wicked crimes as he pleases!”
Kort’s words were merciless.
However, during this process, Linus, who was bowing, could not help but glance at Kort with a strange expression
on his face.
Gerald naturally saw the look on Linus’s face too.
Gerald glanced at Linus coldly. It seemed as though this old man was full of schemes.
On the contrary, Kort was telling him everything because he was honestly afraid of his strength and power.
“When would he usually come out?” Gerald asked again.
“Since it is the Holy Welcoming Festival tonight, he will surely participate in the event. The Holy Witchcraft has a
strange tradition, and that is no sexual intercourse is allowed for the three months before the Holy Welcoming
Festival. As soon as the Holy Welcoming Festival passes tonight, he will naturally come and look for… come and look
for…”
As Kort spoke, he glanced at Jasmine, and he did not continue speaking anymore.
“He will be coming tonight?”
