Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1417
Nobody could have imagined that someone who used to be a pauper would turn out to be the actual Mr. Crawford,
the man with the greatest reputation on the planet! Hell, even Chairman Zack knelt before him!
Watching as Gerald left the area, all of them had horrified expressions on their faces, knowing that there was zero
chance that they would ever be able to get into Gerald’s good books anymore.
Fast forward to inside the study room, Zack was the first to break the silence.
His eyes now teary and reddened, Zack said, “To think that you were fine, Mr. Crawford… What great news…! We
previously thought that you had… Well…”
“You thought something had happened to me too, right? Zack, what exactly happened throughout this period? Are
you guys transferring the company’s assets?”
“That’s right, Mr. Crawford! You should have a look at this first!” replied Zack with a heavy nod before opening his
briefcase and carefully retrieving something wrapped in yellow cloth…

It was a token of the holy water! The same one that was issued to those worthy of obtaining it by a mysterious
organization who could possibly be the Sun League…!
From what Gerald could tell, this was the token that his grandfather had received…
After what the Mackusion had shown him, Gerald hadn’t been sure whether his grandfather was still even among
the living anymore. Now that his token of the holy water was here, Gerald could instantly feel his heart clench in
anxiety.
“…What exactly happened here, Zack…?” asked Gerald.
“I’ll now be explaining everything in detail, Mr. Crawford! You see, it all happened a few days ago…”
As it turned out, Chairman Bea Yaleman—the chairman of the Weston Economic Area—suddenly received an order
from the Crawford family to head over to Northbay. Due to that, her job was temporarily handed over to Zack and
Winson.
Though business proceeded as usual for a while, after a few days, Zack suddenly received a phone call. The call
was from the young mistress, Lyra, and from her tone alone, Zack could already sense that she was slightly anxious
and worried. Regardless, after giving him some instructions, she instantly hung up without even bothering to explain
anything.
According to her, something big was going to happen to the Crawford family. Following that, she then urgently told
Zack to use her name to transfer all of the Crawford’s assets to his name. She also told Zack to begin working on
all of the other economic areas around the globe as well!
‘Remember, you must act fast!’ emphasized the young mistress before finally hanging up.
While Zack was undoubtedly confused, he didn’t dare to delay the transferring process since Lyra had sounded
really anxious when she gave him the order. All he knew was that something serious must have happened.
Whatever the case was, he immediately got to work. At the very least, working would help him get his mind off
things.
It was also around then when Wes first found out that both of them were secretly planning on transferring the
assets.

‘Zack, the Crawford family is done for, and I’m going to be in danger at any second now. While I don’t know if
Gerald’s still doing fine, I’ll be sending something over to you and you’ll have to keep it safe. Please make sure to
secretly find Gerald after that, and once you do, hand the item over to him! All the clues are inside!’
Not knowing how to even respond to that, Zack simply went to bed when he realized that no other messages were
coming his way. When he awoke again later that night, however, he found that the token had mysteriously
appeared by the head of his bed!
With how quickly and silently the token had been delivered, Zack began feeling extremely nervous. He hadn’t the
slightest idea where Gerald even was at that moment!
It was when Zack was pondering how to even proceed with things when he suddenly received a phone call from
Gerald. Naturally, Zack was both surprised and overjoyed, leading him to immediately begin rushing over to hand
the item to Gerald.
“…What? You said that Lyra told you that she could be facing danger at any second? What else did she say?” asked
Gerald with a frown.
“That’s all she said! That she would face danger at any moment…” replied Zack.
