Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1494
Despite things not going as smooth as he had liked, Gerald wasn’t feeling too worried yet. Worst case
scenario, Gerald would have to fight his way into the festival. Even with that in mind, however, Gerald
still had a little confidence that things would work out in the end.
As he thought about his next move, Gerald—who had been sitting at the rear seat with his eyes closed
—suddenly opened his eyes before ordering, “…Pe, stop the car!”

“…Huh? What’s wrong, master?” asked Pe, stunned.
Momentarily paying full attention to his surroundings, Gerald then replied, “…We’re being targeted by
someone… And it seems that the person isn’t too far away from us!”
“What? Could Yaakov have sent people over to kill us? What a b*stard!” growled Pe.
“I doubt that. After all, the one tailing us has an extremely strong aura. I had made sure to observe any
exceptional people I came across at the Waddys manor earlier, and as far as I could tell, I’m pretty sure
that nobody there was exceptional enough to bear such a strong aura,” exined Gerald, still focusing
on the surroundings.
“Then allow me to stay back and help you, sir!” said Julian.
“There’s no need for that. Just leave together with Pe. I’d like to see who this person is first,” replied
Gerald.
Before either of them could even reply, both of them watched as Gerald’s body disappeared from the
car!
The night was dark and Gerald dashed all the way to a riverside which doubled as a moat for Jenna
City. Surrounded by dense forestry, Gerald listened intently to the gentle rustling of leaves above the
many trees… Someone was running atop them to move above ground.
Despite knowing that and being able to see the slight depression of leaves when they were stepped on,
Gerald wasn’t able to see the actual person at all. Not even their shadow.
All of a sudden, two distinct snaps were heard, and Gerald found himself tilting just in time to evade a
leaf and a branch that came shooting out of nowhere!
Both of them were moving so quickly and with such immense force that they honestly felt likeser
beams. The exact power of the attack was made evident when the two projectilespletely smashed
arge tree—that was thick enough for three adult men to hug—into pieces upon collision!
By the time the explosive sound had died down, Gerald found himself thinking that the assant’s
training wasn’t really all that extraordinary…
Before he could ponder any further, Gerald was greeted by the hideous sound of devilishughter.
“Stopughing already and show yourself… I’m here, aren’t I?” replied Gerald casually.
Since the person had deliberately released his holy sense earlier, Gerald already had a hunch that he
had intentionally wanted to lead Gerald there. With that in mind, Gerald wanted to see who the person
was and what his motives were.
After waiting patiently for a while, the strangeughter simply resumed. Simultaneously, a series of
whirlwinds suddenly formed around Gerald out of nowhere! What a strong aura!
Seeing that the assant wasn’t keen on replying, the now slightly annoyed Gerald added, “Are you
done yet?”
Following another roar ofughter—that would send chills running down anyone’s spine—from the
darkness, a voice finally replied, “You’re a young man, no? Have a bit more patience!”
Having had quite enough of the man’s games, Gerald furrowed his brows before rushing toward the
direction he sensed the man in…
And soon enough, he saw a white-haired old man—donning a ck robe—standing at the very tip of a
tree.
Seeing that Gerald had noticed him, the man then leaped before slowly descending—like somerge
bat—onto another tip of a tree that was much closer to the youth.
Once he was there, the old man tilted his head backward before bursting intoughter again, the
hideous sound resonating across the entire forest…
