    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1194


    Cundrie herself felt her heartbeat quicken, utterly shocked by what Riley had just said.


    She was well aware that Riley was just doing all this in her attempt to dissuade Mr. Snyder from


    continuing to go after her. With the inclusion of a powerful and influential ‘rival’, they had hoped that Mr.


    Snyder would retreat after realizing that hispetitor was much stronger than he was.


    However, Cundrie hadn’t expected her sister to actually exaggerate the facts this much! To think that


    she had even gotten Mr. Crawford from Mayberry involved!


    Meanwhile, Xyon and those from his family were all silent, not daring to say a word as their legs


    quivered in their stupefied state.


    After all, the family knew that Mr. Crawford’s subordinates were all very proficient in martial arts. Since


    —as Abner had said—Gerald was so strong, that meant that there was a high chance that he truly was


    Mr. Crawford’s subordinate!


    ‘Does… does that mean that we’ve offended Mr. Crawford…? Are we going to perpetually be doomed


    then? Never to seed again?!’


    These were the thoughts of those from Xyon’s family, who had all gone pale by this point.


    As for Mrs. Smith, while she had initially been against her daughter’s decision of allowing Gerald in, the


    moment she heard Riley’s exnation, she felt like she had arrived at the pinnacle of her life.


    ‘What?!’


    No wonder her two daughters had been acting so mysteriously all morning! As it turned out, Mr.


    Crawford apparently had interest in Cundrie! He had even specifically sent someone over to invite her


    eldest daughter to some asion!


    ‘This… Compared to Mr. Crawford, Mr. Snyder is nothing but dirt! D*mn it all! How dare you even wish


    to gain my daughter’s affection when you’re inferior to Mr. Crawford in all aspects!’ Mrs. Smith thought


    to herself in excitement.


    The Snyder father and son themselves—who were still on stage—were now exchanging nces with


    each other rather agitatedly.


    Mr. Snyder in particr looked like he was just struck by lightning, immense feelings of jealousy and


    helplessness swirling within him. After all, not only had his hopes and ns been ruined, but everything


    he owned could potentially be taken away from him now!


    However, he simultaneously appreciated that electrifying feeling. With it, he was frightened enough not


    to show any signs of resistance, and he knew that it was for the best—at least for now—so that he


    wouldn’t end up digging a deeper grave for himself.


    Regardless, they weren’t the only ones bbergasted by the revtion. Gerald himself was wide-eyed


    in shock as he thought to himself, ‘…The hell? So the master of the invitation card is supposed to be


    me?!’


    Attempting to calm himself down, Noel then asked, “…M-miss Smith, did that person over there truly


    come over to send the invitation card on behalf of Mr. Crawford…?”


    “Is there even a reason for me to lie?” replied Riley as she lifted the exquisite-looking invitation card for


    everyone to see.


    “Look, it’s written right there that he’s inviting my sister over to meet him at Mountain Top Vi in


    Mayberry! I’m sure none of you need any further exnation with the mention of that location!” added


    Riley.


    “Mr. Crawford bid a whopping hundred and twenty million dors for Mountain Top Vi two years ago!


    It’s the most expensive vi in the entire country! Built atop a mountain and constantly shrouded in


    cloud-like mist, being able to stay there allows people to experience what it’s like to be a deity!” said


    one of the local big shots rather longingly at that moment.


    “Indeed! That vi’s also particrly well-guarded, and normal people aren’t even allowed to head up


    there to take photographs! I know since I went to Mayberry for some amusementst month. As you


    may already have guessed, despite my status, I apparently still didn’t have the right to head up to


    Mountain Top Vi!” said another big shot as he cleared his throat before shaking his head with a bitter


    smile.


    On the other hand, several of the presentdies were now looking at Gerald in admiration.


    “Now that I look at him a bit more carefully, Mr. Crawford’s subordinate honestly looks quite


    handsome!”


    “I know right? Well, he’s Mr. Crawford’s subordinate, after all! Any woman would fall for him after giving


    him a good, long look!”


    As thedies squealed excitedly among themselves, Noel felt the need to get some confirmation on the


    legitimacy of Riley’s ims.


    With that, he then asked, “I apologize, for my doubts, but just to be sure, may I ask how many rooms


    there are in Mountain Top Vi, sir?”


    “…H-huh? Are you actually doubting Mr. Crawford’s subordinate, Mr. Snyder? Aren’t you afraid that


    you’ll offend Mr. Crawford?” asked Riley as she instantly began blushing. After all, even she wasn’t


    aware of how many rooms there were in the vi.


    Cundrie herself began clenching her fists tightly, feeling extremely nervous. If they managed to see


    through Riley’s lie, then Cundrie would definitely be the most embarrassed person that day!


    Brimming with anxiety, sweat began falling down Cundrie’s forehead as she thought, ‘I’ve already told


    you how smart and slick Noel was! He’s not someone who gets cheated easily!’


    “…There are a total of thirty-six rooms that are divided into upper, middle, and lower floors. Since Mr.


    Crawford was born in a family that appreciates literature and art, the middle floor is used to disy


    masterpieces that include ancient paintings, famous western oil paintings, and many other works of art


    from all over the world. Behind the mountain top is arge hot spring pool built high above the clouds


    that can amodate over two hundred people!”


    “The vi is even equipped with workspaces for staff from the medical, catering, entertainment, and


    several other relevant fields. There’s even a helipad for helicopters tond and take off from!”

    Despite Cundrie’s worries just seconds ago, Gerald didn’t even hesitate to exin everything there was


    to know about the vi. In fact, he did so in a way that suggested that he was quite familiar with it.


    After Gerald was done exining, both Riley and Cundrie could only look at Gerald in utter disbelief.
