Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1143
“Mr. Crawford?” muttered the women in surprise.
“…Now where have I heard that name before… I can’t recall much about that person…”
“Humph! I’ve done some investigating on him, and trust me when I say that you’ll all be terrified to
death upon hearing what I found out about him!” replied Freya.
“Go on…”
“As I’ve said before, after asking around, I heard from some people that this Mr. Crawford person has
an extremely powerful background! The fortune he owns is near-unimaginable for ordinary people, you
know? In fact, he’s the kind of person who would be able to hand you any amount of money
immediately should he allow you to request for any!” exined Freya as her eyes were filled with
jealousy.
“What? Could there truly be a rich heir like that?” asked a few of the present men with resentment in
their voices, clearly jealous as well.

“It’s all true! Not only is he rich, but he’s extremely capable as well! I’ll say it right now that he’s
nowhere nearparable to any of you hedonistic rich heirs!” replied Freya while looking at the group
of men—who were all younger than her—as she shook her head.
“So what if we’re iparable? It’s not like we want to bepared to him either!” replied one of the
men as they all took turns lowering their heads.
“Well, even if he’s the richest person in the world, I believe that no human will truly be able to live life
without having any worries, regardless of how much wealth one owns… I’m sure he has to deal with
different kinds of issues that normal people like us can’t even hope toprehend… Regardless,
problems definitely still exist for him so there’s no need for all of you to feel ashamed just because
we’re all a little inferior to him,” said Queena at that moment as she smiled.
Her words were like music to the men’s ears, and they instantly found themselves feeling much better.
Gerald himself turned to look at Queena. Since he was so used to seeing materialistic women like Alice
and Xavia by this point, he knew that women like Queena were rather rare in today’s world. With that in
mind, he found himself liking her a bit more after hearing what she had to say.
After all, what she had said was true. So what if he owned half of the world’s fortune? He still couldn’t
change both his and his family’s destiny… He couldn’t even protect the woman he loved. No matter
who it was, humans would always have worries.
As he was deep in thought, the tea he was pouring into Freya’s cup ended up over spilling, causing
quite a bit of it to spill onto Freya’s clothes!
“What- You… You b*stard!” screamed Freya who immediately stood up as she felt the scalding tea on
her body.
Looking greatly offended, she then red daggers at Gerald before shouting, “Are you blind or
something?!”
By then, her roars of fury had attracted the attention of several of the guests there.
Clearly still dissatisfied with Gerald, the aggressive woman then raised her palm, fully prepared to p
him! After all, Gerald was just a mere servant for all she knew. To think that he would dare offend her
before everyone!
The others knew better than to step in. After all, they were all aware that once Freya got into a bad
temper, she wasn’t someone who could be easily trifled with.
However, when her hand was just inches away from Gerald’s cheek, she immediately retracted it the
moment she felt an immense pain on her palm that felt like a pinprick!
“Ow! M-my hand! I-it hurts!” wailed Freya as she burst into tears while holding onto her now bleeding
hand.
“You b*stard! How dare you attack Freya?! You’re courting death for sure!”
While the men didn’t really know what Gerald had used to injure Freya, they at least assumed that he
had secretly attacked her. With all of theming to the same conclusion, it was natural for all of them
to be infuriated!
Just as they were about to make a move on him, however, a—simultaneously—wrath-filled and terrified
voice shouted, “Cease this immediately! What are all of you doing?!”
Hearing that, the men who were about to deal with Gerald immediately froze in ce. Everyone else at
the scene went silent as well.
After all, the person who had shouted was none other than the Yonwick family’s master, Linus!
Following that, the pale-faced man quickly rushed over to where Gerald was standing. Gerald himself
had been standing there with his hands behind his back, an indifferent expression on his face.
Secondster, three loud and distinct ps could be heard… And the three men who had initially
nned to retaliate against Gerald ended up falling to the floor due to the immense impact of the ps!
“D-dad?! What are you doing?! They were just trying to seek justice for me! Just look at that lowly
servant! He’s the one who hurt my hand!” shouted Freya as she stomped a foot on the ground in her
frustration after seeing her cousins being pped instead.
The immediate response she got from Linus, however, was a tight p to her face!
