    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1180


    All Gerald had always wanted to do was to live an ordinary life.


    Regardless, now that he was in Lugaw City, he needed to start looking for people with strong yin


    physiques. For all he knew, he needed to wander around ces where lots of people gathered. In other


    words, busy locations like train stations and bustlingmercial streets.


    With that in mind, he knew that now was a good time as any to begin the search.


    From what he could see, Lugaw City was a lively ce, and as he was walking around, he saw a few


    stalls selling small pendants that had once been owned by the sellers’ ancestors. Some of them


    seemed to be selling what seemed to be radios from back in the 1970s as well.


    While looking around, Gerald noticed several people—rather excitedly—gathering around one of the


    stalls. Following that, he heard a voice saying, “Sir, please! I need the money urgently to treat my sick


    child! Know that this jade has been passed down by several of my ancestors! Even though my mother


    passed it down to me, I really have no choice but to sell it! I’m only selling it for eight thousand! Eight


    thousand, I say!”


    Despite therge crowd, Gerald had sharp and precise hearing, allowing him to urately listen to the


    voice. Sensing that something wasn’t right, he quickly slipped into the crowd to see what was


    happening for himself.


    “The hell? You’re telling me that this broken piece of jade is worth eight thousand dors? I’ll have you


    know that I’ve seen many jade pendants before in my life, so I can easily tell that this is only a fake!


    How dare you try to cheat me! From the quality of this thing, eight dors would already be a massive


    profit for you! Now that you’ve angered me, however, not only am I not going to give you a single cent,


    but I’m also going to beat you up!” dered the rich young man as he instantly began kicking the seller.


    The seller himself was a middle-aged man, and beside him, stood his young daughter.


    Not wanting the rich young man to take his jade away, the man instantly knelt, clearly begging for


    mercy.


    From what he had observed, Gerald managed to get the gist of the situation. In short, the man was in


    desperate need of money to treat his seriously ill daughter. As a result, he was selling the jade pendant


    that his ancestors had passed down to him for a rtively low price just to get enough to treat his child


    While a rich young man took a liking to said pendant, he wasn’t willing to cough up the money that the


    middle-aged man was pricing it at. As if that wasn’t enough, the rich youth was even threatening him so


    that he could just take the pendant by force! With all that happening, the old man really didn’t have any


    other choice but to kneel and beg for mercy while holding onto the rich youth’s trousers.


    “Hey now, didn’t you hear what my husband just said? He’s an expert when ites to appraising


    jades, you know? Since he’s already confirmed that you’re trying to sell a fake for such a high price,


    you should be d that we’re letting you off easy by not calling the cops! Now let go of him already!”


    shouted a woman with heavy makeup on—who had been standing by her husband’s side this entire


    time—as she began striking at the middle-aged man’s face with the sharp corners of her LV handbag.


    “I’m telling you that that jade pendant is worth at least fifteen thousand dors! I’m only selling it at this


    low a price because I have no other options! If you’re unwilling to buy it at that price, then please return


    it to me already! I’m not selling it anymore!” cried out the man as he continued begging.


    “Oh? You’re not selling it anymore, you say? Do remember that you’ve already taken my fifty dors


    earlier and the jade pendant is now in my hands! That means that our transaction has already been


    “Just pay my husband that amount and this broken jade pendant is yours again! While awaiting the


    payment, here, catch it!” added the woman as she instantly threw the pendant in the opposite direction.


    Eyes widened, the middle-aged man instantly limped over to catch it. Of course, there was no way he


    was going to be able to catch the jade pendant in time from where he currently stood.


    The second the pendant fell to the ground, it instantly shattered into pieces!


    “My… My jade pendant…!” shouted the man—who was already bleeding from the corner of his right


    eye due to being hit by the woman’s handbag earlier—as he knelt in shock, looking like his entire world


    had just crumbled along with the pendant!


    “Hahaha! Looks like you weren’t able to catch the pendant in time! That’s on you so you’d better not


    me me!” squealed the woman in glee as she pped her hands.


    “You… You broke my jade pendant…! Compensate me!” shouted the middle-aged man as he


    immediately began rushing toward the vile woman.


    However, before he could get far, several of the rich youth’s bodyguards grabbed the man by his neck,


    holding him in ce.


    Following that, the rich man slid his hands into his pockets as he slowly walked toward the middle-aged


    man…


    pping the middle-aged man gently on the face, he then said, “As long as it makes her happy today,


    my girlfriend can do anything that she pleases. If you dare ruin her mood, then believe it or not, with


    just a single phone call, I’ll make sure that your daughter won’t ever be able to get admitted into any


    hospital! I hope you can imagine how helpless both of you will be then with nowhere to go!”


    After hearing the young man’s cold warning, the middle-aged man instantly stopped struggling.


    Knowing he waspletely powerless against the young man, he could only tug his own hair in


    frustration as he replied, “…I… I was wrong… My jade pendant was a fake… I was the one who had


    attempted to cheat you of your money, so I deserve to die!”


    “Daddy!” shouted his daughter at that moment as she hurried over to her father’s side tofort him.


    Seeing that, the woman locked her arms happily with the young man’s before coquettishly saying, “It’s


    not fun anymore, darling! Now let’s go!”


    Just as she was about to walk off, however, she suddenly realized that someone was grabbing onto her


    hair… Before she even had a chance to react, she found herself being pulled backward!


    Naturally, she instantly began screaming…Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
