    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 856


    There was a rather bitter smile on Gerald’s face as he said that.


    “Hmm? Why’s Shane back inside?”


    Before anyone could even react to that statement, a scream of shock echoed through the hall.


    It wasn’t long after before everyone saw Shane and his subordinates retreating back into the living


    room, and for good reason too.


    A powerful-looking woman made her appearance secondster, and following behind her, was a group


    of extremely intimidating men who all appeared to be equally strong.


    ‘Who… Who could this possibly be…?’ Lady Yaleman thought to herself as the corners of her lips


    twitched.


    Bea, on the other hand, was full of awe and astonishment as she looked at the young and beautiful


    woman. After all, she had witnessed with her very own eyes how Shane had retreated in fear within


    that woman’s presence.


    “What an absolute coincidence, Shane! We meet again!” said the woman as she chewed on her gum


    while looking at the terrified man.


    “I-It has, miss! It’s truly been forever!” stuttered Shane, his face dripping with cold sweat.


    “President Crawford!” greeted Chairman Jagger and the others as they bowed respectfully toward her.


    “P-President Crawford…?”


    Seeing that all the big shots were bowing toward the youngdy, Lady Yaleman bowed slightly herself.


    She wasn’t against doing so since the new woman truly felt extraordinarily powerful and imposing.


    “Grandma!” shouted Bea as she began moving toward her. However, Gerald stuck an arm out, a sign


    for her to remain standing by his side.


    “W-who is she, cousin?” asked Bea nervously as her adorable face blushed.


    Smiling, he then patted her on the head before looking toward the woman and saying, “Sister, this here


    is our cousin! She goes by the name of Bea!”


    “…Sister? …Huh? She’s my other cousin… Jessica?” said Bea as she covered her mouth in


    excitement. After all, she had never known what either of her cousins looked like for the longest time.


    Today, she was finally able to see what Jessica looked like as well!


    “Well hello there, Bea! What a pretty little dear you are!” said Jessica as she walked toward Bea and


    held on to her hands.


    “Jessica?” said Lady Yaleman, her eyes opened wider than ever.


    ‘Could… Could she truly be my granddaughter…?’


    “While it’s our first time meeting today, I’m afraid that my gift isn’t anything special, Bea… I do hope that


    my humble present will be to your liking…” said Jessica.


    As soon as her sentence ended, one of her subordinates immediately walked toward Bea and held out


    a box.


    The moment Bea opened the box, an extremely valuable object was revealed, and its resplendence


    sent waves of awe among those who saw it.


    “That… That’s the legendary moonstone, isn’t it?! Oh my god!” shouted someone from within the


    crowd, unable to hold their astonishment.


    While many of the guests were astonished, many others—like Mae and the girls—were left extremely


    jealous.


    So it turned out that Gerald and his family were this powerful! To think that they hadn’t even asked for


    his Line contact information! Thinking about it now, Mae and the others were filled with remorse.


    “Go on Bea! It’s a gift from your cousin! Take it already!” squealed Catherine in sheer delight.


    Rose, Yura, Ysabel, and many others were left absolutely stupefied by the turn of events.


    Once the moonstone was taken, Jessica looked toward Lady Yaleman before greeting her in a soft


    voice.


    “T-the pleasure is mine!” said Lady Yaleman excitedly as she nodded toward Jessica.


    It took her a while to notice, but she realized at that moment how different Jessica and Gerald were.


    After all, though she had already seen much at her age, she was surprised at how nervous she could


    still get when facing somebody like Jessica.


    Upon hearing what Lady Yaleman had to say, Jessica turned around and scanned through the crowd.


    Nobody dared to even look into her eyes, and all of the guests found themselves lowering their gazes.

    At longst, her gaze fell on Bea once more.


    She then smiled before saying, “Bea, if you haven’t heard, Gerald and I prepared three gifts for you!


    Since both of us have already given one each, we’ll now present the third and final gift!”
