    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 868


    The moment the sack was opened, the others saw an unconscious young man who had been beaten


    up terribly.


    “S-Shane!” shouted Master Long nervously when he saw how badly beaten up the boy was.


    “Now, now, let’s not be impatient! There’s still more!” said Philip as he, too, stepped forward.


    With a swift gesture, one of Philip’s men tossed a bag over to Master Long. As itnded at his feet, its


    contents spilled out.


    “…What’s this?”


    “I… I recognize whose clothes these are! They’re the kind of clothes that Mr. Yunus usually wears!”


    shouted someone from within the crowd.


    “I’m sure you’ve been looking everywhere for him, right? The truth is, Yunus drove off a cliff and these


    tattered clothes were the only remains we could find,” exined Philip.


    “W-what…?” Master Long was assaulted by both immense anger and grief as he heard those words.


    “G-Gerald… How arrogant of you and your sister! Bullying us this way… Do you honestly think that


    there’s nobody capable of standing against you within the Long family?!” growled Master Long, his


    eyes bloodshot with rage.


    At that, Gerald could only smile faintly.


    Gerald wasn’t the kind of person to be easily infuriated. Honestly, if he could, he wouldn’t even use


    vicious means to achieve his goals. After all, he didn’t really enjoy creating unnecessary trouble for


    others.


    However, Yunus had tried to harm him on multiple asions before. He had almost killed Queta as


    well. And now Shane was involved with Bea’s kidnapping…


    They had messed with the people he cared about most.


    To think that they still bore grudges against his sister for what she had done over ten years ago. While


    his sister no longer had the time to even bother about a tiny family such as the Longs, Gerald had all


    the time in the world.


    It was high time he got things over with.


    Just as Master Long was prepared to fight Gerald to the death, his butler ran over to him while holding


    on to a wireless phone.


    “M-master! There’s a call!”


    “Get lost! I’m in no mood to answer a d*mned call!” roared Master Long.

    “I-it’s not just any regr call, master! It’s from… that party,” added the butler with a gulp.


    “…Hmm?”


    As soon as he heard that, Master Long was stunned and his expression instantly changed. Clearing his


    throat, he then respectfully took the phone from his servant’s hand before answering the call.


    “Yes…Yes. Y-yes!”


    After the three consecutive ‘yesses,’ Master Long hung up the phone. However, his entire demeanor


    seemed to have switched from that single phone call.


    Far from his initial stance, he now seemed to have be feeble, and he barely looked like he had


    the energy to even stand. Momentster, his grasp loosened and the phone fell to the floor as his butler


    immediately rushed over to support him.


    When his gaze fell upon Gerald again, his expression changed once more.


    The call hade from the party which had served as the backbone of the Long family. The contents


    of the call itself, however, revealed that the backbone that the Long family relied on so much had now


    copsed.


    In other words, there was nothing the Long family could do to Gerald anymore.


    “Now then, if there isn’t anything else, please sign the agreement. Speaking of which, there’s another


    condition in the supplementary agreement. I want all the properties belonging to the Long family!” said


    Gerald.


    “Don’t even bother with him anymore, dad! Let’s just beat him up already!”


    “Indeed! We’re such a huge family with so many properties! Why should we be afraid of them?”


    “What utter nonsense! Saying that he wants all our properties… Preposterous! You should first be


    thinking about whether you’ll be able to make it out of here alive!”


    While shout after shout of anger came from those within the Long family, Master Long simply raised a


    hand, a sign for the others to silence themselves.


    His face now deathly pale, he turned to slowly look at Gerald before saying, “…Fine. I’ll sign it. I’ll sign


    it, Mr. Crawford!”


    Hearing that, everyone from the Long family was instantly stupefied.


    While it was true that the Crawford family was both powerful and influential, the Longs certainly had the


    means and power to at least try to stand up against them.


    Though the others remained puzzled, only Master Long currently understood the importance of his


    actions.


    Upon signing the agreement, the Long family would cease to exist within Yanken. In exchange, the


    Long bloodline would still be allowed to continue existing elsewhere.


    In other words, if the contract wasn’t signed, the Long family’s name could easily be wiped off the


    net for good.
