    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1142


    Calming himself, he then walked over to the group while asionally ncing at the entrance.


    As he picked up a teapot to refill the empty cups at the table, one of the women who had heavy


    makeup on—as did the others—said, “You know, you look pretty handsome up-close! Still, you’re not


    quite my cup of tea! Only Queena would fall for someone like you!”


    “Oh? Could you actually be Queena’s pretty boy?” asked another woman.


    “Humph! As if someone like him would ever be qualified to be hers!” replied a third woman rather


    contemptuously.


    After saying that, the women seemed to lose interest in him and they quickly found themselves


    resuming their previous topic of conversation.


    “Anyway, I’m very happy now! Haha! At longst, someone finally took the me for me!” said another


    woman from that group who looked to be slightly older than Gerald.


    “Oh? What sort of me, Freya?” asked one of her friends.


    “Just some incident none of you were probably aware of… Actually, I think it’s fine for me to tell you


    about it now! You see, the Yonwicks have always had a secret deal with the young lord of the Holy


    Witchcraft!”


    “…A deal?” asked the women who were now growing increasingly curious.


    “Indeed! You see, ording to the deal, over ten beautiful women have to be sent to the young lord


    yearly. As you may have already guessed, some of theme from the Yonwick family as well!”


    replied Freya.


    “What? You’re not pulling our leg, are you?”


    “Is there even a reason for me to do that? Regardless, my dad told me some time ago that I was


    initially one of the chosen beauties to be sent over to him! However, since a beauty from the Fenderson


    family came over about three months ago, my dad betrayed her just to protect me!” exined Freya as


    sheughed.

    “How unexpected… To think that the young lord was actually such a person! It’s quite hard to even


    imagine!”


    “I know right? Even I used to think that the young lord was both pure and wless. Never could I have


    imagined that he was this disgusting in reality! Either way, this is a major secret that, if exposed, would


    ruin him for sure! As a result, it’s a great taboo for the people from Montholm Ind to talk about this!


    Aside from the members of our family and a few other people on Montholm Ind, I’m pretty sure that


    nobody else knows about this secret! I’m just sharing this with you because I’m so happy today!”


    replied Freya.


    “Well, I’ve heard rumors about this a few years back myself, so I wouldn’t call it a tightly kept secret…”


    muttered one of her friends.


    “Oh? Well I’m sure that you’ve definitely never heard of what I’m about to tell you! It’s something that


    my dad’s been hiding from my family! I’m pretty sure that I’m the only other Yonwick who knows about


    this!” whispered Freya in a slightly saddened tone.


    “What are all of you talking about, cousin?” asked Queena as she led a few rich, young heirs over from


    the door. As the neers smiled at those from the initial group, Queena took the chance to wave at


    Gerald while greeting him.


    “You interrupted Freya just as she was about to share some secrets with us! Come over and sit with us!


    Quickly!”


    “Secrets?”


    “Yeah! You see, an incident happened this afternoon… You all know Layton, right? My incapable


    younger brother? Well, something happened to him! Before I go on, though, do all of you know who


    Master Moldell is?” asked Freya.


    “But of course we do!”


    It didn’te as a surprise for any of them that Freya called her younger brother ‘incapable’. After all,


    those from the Yonwick family were well aware that she didn’t have a good rtionship with Layton.


    This was mostly due to the fact that Layton was the only male descendant of the family. As a result,


    Linus adored Layton a lot and tended to spoil him. With Freya, Linus usually only gave her a cold


    shoulder, which exined her clear dissatisfaction with Layton.


    “Excellent. Moving on, I earlier saw Master Moldell and my younger brother being carried into the


    manor from the backdoor… It was sheer coincidence that I saw them back then since I was nning to


    sneak out the backdoor to have some fun!”


    “Oh, d*mn! How did Layton get hurt? Actually, the more important question is how did Master Moldell


    get hurt? We’ve all seen his immense skill before! To think that someone would actually manage to


    defeat him on Montholm Ind!”


    Everyone clearly found that news hard to believe. Some of the young men were even exchanging


    terrified nces with each other as Freya continued whispering, “While I’m not too sure about the


    details of what actually happened, after eavesdropping on my dad while he was talking to a few of his


    subordinates, I heard the name, ‘Mr. Crawford’ being mentioned. Apparently that person has an


    extremely powerful background!”
