    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 865


    “Mom… Aren’t we being a bit too cruel…? Gerald’s not to be trifled with! If the truth ever gets out and


    Jessica realizes that we were involved…”


    Within their own room, Yura was now talking in an extremely worried manner to his mother.


    In response, Rose sneered, “In for a penny, in for a pound! It’s not like we can help it! We were already


    running out of options from the moment we decided to snatch the right to inherit the Yaleman family


    from Bea. With Gerald dead, we won’t have any more enemies! If we’re lucky, the properties up North


    —that Gerald gave Bea—may even eventually fall into our hands!” assured Rose.


    “For now, we can only pray that Sheldon doesn’t mess up. After all, I’m aware of how much Gerald


    trusts that butler!” added the viinous mother.

    “But… But what if someone finds out about the poison?”


    “Worry not, the poison I picked was both colorless and odorless. Besides, even if someone does


    manage to detect the poison, Sheldon’s the one who technically killed Mr. Crawford! If the moment ever


    comes, he’ll definitely be unable to defend himself!” exined Rose in a vicious manner as her eyes


    narrowed.


    “I understand, mom…”


    As soon as his sentence ended, however, the door to their room instantly burst open! Immediately after,


    a group of people dressed fully in ck rushed in!


    “What are all of you doing?!” shouted Rose as both she and her son started growing nervous.


    Instead of replying, the men immediately covered their heads with ck hoods which muffled any


    screams they attempted to make.


    When they finally came to a halt, Philip was standing before them.


    Though the duo had initially thought that they could hang on long enough for Philip and his men to give


    up, all it took was half an hour for him and his subordinates to make them spit out everything that had


    happened.


    After all, Philip and his men were proficient in torturing people.


    Both now tremendously terrified, neither of them dared to lie before Gerald’s face any longer.


    “P-please Gerald! The one who wants to harm you is Shane! He’s the one who gave us the idea!


    Besides, Bea’s with him now! We’re out of options too! You know, if we hadn’t followed his orders, he


    would’ve killed us by now! We weren’t involved in the nning process of the kidnapping, Gerald!” said


    Rose, now so anxious that she was quivering almost uncontrobly.


    In her mind, she now admitted that she had looked down upon how ruthless Gerald could actually get.


    Rose had simply assumed before this that as long as he didn’t have enough evidence, he wouldn’t act


    recklessly.


    How wrong she was. After all, Gerald had suspected them from the very beginning.


    “I do hope you don’t assume that you’ll be let off the bat just by putting all the me on Shane.


    Regardless, grandma will hear about all this tomorrow. She’ll know how to punish you. As for the


    Longs! I won’t let them off this time!” growled Gerald coldly.


    “Now… Be honest. Where did Shane hide Bea?”


    It was a little whileter in a dimly lit room within a secluded factory when Shane shouted, “Btch! Just


    sign the dmned thing already!”


    At the moment, Shane was tying Bea to a chair as several of his subordinates stood guard over the


    ce.


    “Just give up already!” growled Bea angrily.


    In response, Shane pped her directly on the cheek!


    “Bea, Bea, Bea… There’s a limit to my patience, you know? If it gets to a point where I think you’re too


    much of a hassle to be useful, I’ll just kill you right here and right now!” warned Shane viciously.


    “Please, I’m no fool, Shane! As if you’d ever let me go after I sign it!” sneered Bea.


    Shane’s eyes turned bloodshot the moment he heard that.


    Once the contract before her was signed, he would be able to retrieve a few of the properties that Bea


    owned. Just as she said, once that happened, there was absolutely no way he would ever let her out


    alive.


    “Hah! It seems I need to teach you a lesson! Call Second brother and the others over! They can act


    now! Humph! Still, before they do it, perhaps I should let them enjoy themselves first! After all, you’re


    quite the beauty, Bea!” said Shane maliciously.


    “Right away, Mr. Long!” said his subordinates as they allughed.


    With that, one of the subordinates activated his walkie-talkie before saying, “Come up now.”


    However, even after a few seconds had passed, there was no reply. Finding it odd, he called out to the


    few people who had been stationed to stand guard downstairs.


    No reply either.


    “What’s happening here? Head downstairs and have a look!” ordered Shane.
