Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1322
“As for you. How many times have I told you not to get involved with any of the Fairleighs? Knowing Seamus, who
knows what he had in mind when you made that bet with him? It should’ve been clear as day that he wanted to
cheat you! Had it not been for the savage running wild, you would’ve definitely lost the bet!” reprimanded the
middle-aged man.
To those who knew him, he was none other than the master of King Valley, Rupert Yateman. He was a father to two
daughters, them being Yenny and Fleur Yateman.
Being the younger daughter, Yenny had quite the bizarre attitude, and her personality was flippant as it was
insincere. Fleur, on the other hand, was much more mature and stable-minded.
Regardless, Rupert couldn’t help but feel irked this time. After all, the bet his daughter had made had cost the lives
of seven of the King Valley’s most highly ranked masters.
“All of you should know how covetously the Fairleighs have been eyeing us this entire time! With that in mind,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteveryone should be extra careful whenever they decide things! None of you should get involved with the Fairleighs,
is that clear?” instructed Rupert.
Following that, he then turned to look at his daughters before angrily adding, “As for you two, go back to your
rooms! You’re grounded until further notice!”
After the slightly pouting duo walked off to enter their rooms, Myles took a step forward and bowed before saying,
“Greetings, master! This lowly one has a request!”
Frowning slightly, Rupert then asked, “Go on, what is it?”
“Well, I know you’ve been recruiting martial arts masters from all over the world, master. With that in mind, allow
me to introduce you to Mr. Crawford here! He’s the disciple of our benefactor back then!” introduced Myles.
Upon hearing that, Rupert turned to look at Gerald before replying in an indifferent tone, “What benefactor?”
“…You know, the one who… Well, back in the shantytown…” mumbled Myles.
“Ah, so that’s what you’re talking about. So you’re telling me that he accepted some disciple who just so happens to
be proficient in martial arts?” replied Rupert while shaking his head.
As someone who had been through a lot, Rupert could tell from a single glance that this young man was simply
here to collect the grace from that year. Thinking about it, Rupert remembered wanting to offer the farmer money
back then, though that man had declined. At the time, Rupert had wondered what kind of airs that farmer was
putting on. To think that that man had been saving that request all this time till he eventually figured out what he
wanted from Rupert.
“Whatever the case is, just go tell the accountant and hand this boy fifty thousand- no, actually, give him a hundred
thousand! With that, I hope the matter will be done and over with!” ordered Rupert as he furrowed his brows while
waving for them to leave.
‘Hah! Martial artist… It’s obvious that he’s just some naïve kid!’
“To think that we came all the way here just to see a liar! Do you think you can just waltz into King Valley all willy-
nilly? What do you think this place is, boy?” said one of the rather extraordinary-looking elderly men in the room as
the other old men present took turns shaking their heads with wry smiles on their faces.
Raising a slight brow, Gerald could feel murderous intent building in his heart. If things were really going to proceed
this way, then he wasn’t against taking the medicine by force.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing how displeased Gerald was, Myles quickly replied, “B-but master, Mr. Crawford isn’t here for money!
Instead, he’s here in hopes of obtaining three rare medicinal herbs!”
Now sighing in irritation, Rupert then responded, “Three rare medicinal herbs you say? What favor did that man
even do for us to deserve that! Look, I’m getting really annoyed right now, so if you don’t leave with the money
already, you’ll be going home empty-handed!”
At that moment, a young servant fumbled into the room while shouting, “N-not good! Things aren’t looking good!”
Watching as the boy fell to the ground, Rupert’s frown deepened as he asked, “What is it that’s gotten you into such
a panic?”
“I-it’s the master of Fairleigh Valley, master! He’s leading lots of people over, saying that it was our peoples’ fault
for letting some undefeatable God of War on the loose! I’m not sure what they meant by that, but they’re claiming
that those from our valley caused the Fairleighs to suffer massive losses! They want us to compensate them now,
and if we don’t, they’re planning on barging in!” explained the servant.
“…What?! Those utter b*stards!” roared Rupert in fury as he slammed both hands onto his table.
“Gather our men immediately! I’m the dignified master of King Valley! Who do those Fairleighs think they are just
doing as they please here?!”
