    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 786


    “Yes, that must be him!”


    As the crowd of people gulped, not even daring to speak loudly, the new group of people continued


    walking forward till they were right in front of Bryson. Each person in that group exuded an equally


    strong aura.


    “Is that you, Fynn?” asked Bryson as he smiled at the old man.


    “Indeed it is, Lord Fenderson. It’s been a long time since we’vest met! I trust you’ve been well since


    then!” replied Fynn with a slight smile.


    “I have. Still, all those years… Gone just like that! To think that the young boy who used to always stick


    around Daryl is now an old man… If it wasn’t because of your unchanging, sharp as ever eyes, I


    wouldn’t have been able to recognize you at all! It really has been too long!” said Bryson, his tone


    tinged with regrets as he reminisced.


    After all, back in the day, Bryson and Daryl were so close that they even considered each other to be


    brothers. The old man that now stood before him went by the name of Fynn, and he used to be Daryl’s


    subordinate then. Time, however, waits for no one and things werepletely different now.


    “A long time indeed…”


    A calm smile was on Fynn’s face as he said that. While at their roots, grievances still existed between


    the Crawfords and the Fendersons, regardless of whether they were stillpeting against each other


    in secret or not, they still had to treat each other politely.


    As for the ‘Mr. Crawford’ standing beside Fynn, he looked rather carefree as he scanned through the


    area. However, his demeanor changed the moment his gaze fell upon somebody standing within the


    crowd.


    “…Huh? It’s you?”


    “So you’re the one who came?”


    The woman who had spoken in unison with ‘Mr. Crawford’ was none other than Xavia.


    While he was clearly surprised to see Xavia there, Xavia was even more astonished. After all, she had


    met and dealt with this person before.


    He wasn’t Mr. Crawford! The young man with beady eyes was Gerald’s godbrother, Yoel! The son of


    the richest man in County State!


    Why was he here? Though it wasn’t Gerald, Xavia still began feeling inexplicably nervous at that


    moment.


    “Aren’t you the Holden family’s young master? Why were you given the title of Mr. Crawford from


    Northbay?” asked Xavia, her face slightly pale.


    Hearing that, Jasmine was surprised. After all, when she had first heard that he was Mr. Crawford, she


    had been wondering if this was the one whom she was contractually bound to marry.


    As it turned out, he wasn’t, or at least from what Xavia had said.


    Feeling slightly embarrassed after she said that, Yoel then replied, “Now who said that I was Mr.


    Crawford? I’m just here to join in the fun and excitement!”


    “Wait, so if he’s not Mr. Crawford… Then where’s the real one?”


    Everyone was surprised by the turn of events.


    “Hahaha! It seems that we’ve made a real fool of ourselves this time! Let me exin. There are two


    reasons why we’re here today. Our first is to represent Mr. Crawford and the Crawford family to present


    your birthday gift to you. After all, after all these years, even our family has regretted some of the things


    that have happened in the past. We’ve been meaning to have a talk with the Fendersons for a long


    time now, but we simply haven’t heard any news about your family throughout all these years!” said


    Fynn as he smiled faintly.


    “Not to worry, however, Lord Fenderson. As long as the Crawford family is around, I believe that


    nobody will even dare to cause any trouble for you on your birthday!”


    As soon as Noah and the others heard that, they felt themselves gulping before each taking a step


    back.


    “As for the second matter, the Crawfords would like to take Miss Queta and Madam Xara back with us.


    After all, the madam is the sister-inw of the Crawford family’s head. Miss Queta herself is a member


    of the Crawford family. I believe that this is both an understandable and reasonable request, Lord


    Fenderson!”


    Bryson took in a deep breath upon hearing that. So things had already advanced to this stage.


    Since the Crawford family had actuallye all the way here, they must have already been fully


    prepared for the visit.


    Even though Bryson tried thinking and considering the overall situation, in the end, he didn’t even know


    what to say. After all, the Crawfords now knew where the Fendersons lived, which meant that they


    were now officially susceptible to danger at all times.C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.


    However, the Fendersons themselves were holding on to a trump card which was very important to


    Dn. It was because of that, that Bryson believed that Dn wouldn’t try to go overboard any time


    soon.


    The current best choice of action would be for both parties to negotiate and talk things through.


    “Well of course it is!” replied Bryson with a nod.


    “However, do remember that the Fenderson family used to be on par with the Crawfords, Fynn. While


    you said that the young master of the Crawford family wanted to wish me a happy birthday and


    celebrate my eightieth birthday together, it seems that he isn’t present. While he did send someone


    here in his stead, I don’t think that it justifies me handing over both my daughter and granddaughter


    over to the Crawfords,” said Bryson as he fixed his gaze on Fynn.


    “Hahaha! Now who said that our young master wasn’t here? In fact, he’s already arrived at the


    Fenderson family mansion a day in advance to make all your birthday preparations, Lord Fenderson!”


    replied Fynn as heughed.


    “…What? What do you mean Mr. Crawford’s already arrived?” replied Bryson in surprise.


    “Mr. Crawford’s already here? Where is he?”


    Everyone was equally astonished.
