Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1268

“Mr. Crawford! You’re finally awake!” shouted Jace who seemed to have been sitting beside him this entire time.

Realizing that his wounds had been bandaged, Gerald now knew that Jace had been the one who had stabilized his

condition.

“I am… Thank you, Dr. Mabb…” replied Gerald as he held onto his wounds.

Recalling that he had almost been killed by Tiara and those eight men, Gerald turned to look at the Smiths as he

asked, “Aunt Helen… Uncle Smith… Were you the ones who had rescued and brought me here…?”

As he awaited their reply, Gerald faintly remembered himself desperately pleading the jade pendant to help him

back then. He also recalled the sudden burst of energy that emitted from his body before eventually passing out.

Naturally, he had no idea what happened after going unconscious.

“That’s right, Gerald… You almost frightened us to death earlier, you know? You sent all nine of them flying into the

air in all directions! Sensing the opportunity to escape, we then quickly brought you back with us!” explained Helen

who was very obviously still terrified after witnessing all that had happened today.

Following that, Helen explained how Tiara had brought some of her men with her over to their house not long after

Gerald left. Since Gavin, Rita, and Helen just so happened to be serving Lady Smith at the time, all three of them

ended up getting kidnapped by Tiara and her men!

Eventually, all that led to Tiara besieging Gerald.

From what Helen had told him, Gerald deduced that Tiara must’ve previously been unable to find him in Mayberry,

even after days of searching. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have needed to do all this just to weed him out.

Putting Tiara aside for the moment, Gerald began thinking about the jade pendant. It appeared that the pendant

wasn’t as simple as Gerald had initially thought. After all, it practically saved his skin earlier.

Before he could delve any further into it, Zack—who had also been present this entire time—suddenly said in a

worried tone, “You really scared us half to death earlier, Mr. Crawford! By the time we got there to carry your

unconscious body over, you were completely drenched in blood!”

“I truly had a near-death experience earlier, that’s for sure… Regardless, where are we?” asked Gerald, suddenly

realizing that he was someplace unfamiliar.

“We’re currently in a villa that’s halfway up Mountain Top. While we’re on the topic, I’m glad to announce that we’ve

already managed to punch a hole through the mountain! We should be able to locate what you’re looking for soon,

Mr. Crawford!” reported Zack.

“…I see! That explains it!”

Gerald was, of course, talking about how strongly the jade pendant had reacted at the time.

Before Zack was able to inquire Gerald about it, a screaming female could suddenly be heard coming from the

room next door! Shortly after, the sound of a plate falling to the floor followed!

It didn’t take much to be able to guess that some woman had just witnessed something extremely terrifying, and

not long after, a young nurse—who looked to be around the age of eighteen—stumbled into the room while

shouting in a panicked voice, “D-dr. Mabb…! The man next door has already awoken, and he’s slowly breaking free

of his steel restraints!”

“What?!” shouted Zack in disbelief before glancing at several of his men who were in the room. Getting the

message, the guards instantly headed for the room next door.

“What on earth is happening?” asked Gerald.

“It’s that man who was trying to kill you with a dagger last night! While we were sure that he was still unconscious

at the time we began transferring you here, upon arriving at the villa, we realized that he had tailed us all the way

here! Though he was extremely weak at the time, he kept muttering the phrase, ‘I’m going to save you, Mr.

Crawford…!’ Hearing that, we couldn’t allow Mr. Lyle to just kill him. After all, we weren’t sure whether he was a

friend or foe yet. Due to that, we restrained him with steel chains for the time being!” replied Helen.

“That’s Chester!” exclaimed Gerald as his eyelids twitched. Immediately hopping off his bed, Gerald began rushing

over to the room next door.

Upon entering, Gerald saw several bodyguards standing near the door, all of them looking rather stunned.

Turning to see what they were all looking at, Gerald saw Chester standing there, breaking off yet another chain with

his bare hands. From the looks of it, he had been tied with at least a dozen steel chains, though many of them were

already lying broken on the floor.

Though the guards all had electric batons in hand, not one of them even dared to step forward to attack him. It was

evident that this was their first time seeing such an insanely strong person.

Feeling extremely moved to see his close friend alive and kicking again, Gerald called out, “Chester…!”

Hearing the familiar voice, Chester’s body began trembling ever so slightly as he raised his head to see if it really

was Gerald. Upon getting that confirmation, Chester called out extremely slowly, “M… Mr… Crawford…!”

The way he was speaking was reminiscent of a toddler who was barely able to speak clearly yet. Despite that,

Gerald knew that Chester was fully sober from the look in his eyes alone. He truly had no idea what method had

been used to bring Chester back to life.

“Yes, it’s me, Chester!” replied Gerald while looking straight into his brother’s eyes.

Chester had taken a killing blow for Gerald back then to save his brother, and Gerald had always felt guilty about

that. Regardless of what Chester even was now, Gerald couldn’t help but feel happy to see him alive…
