    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1522


    As the priest attempted to book it, he didn’t make it past the third step before some ungodly force


    began lifting him off the ground! This time, however, all his internal organs felt like they were


    simultaneously being torn apart!


    Trembling violently from the near-unbearable pain, the priest quickly began shouting, “S-spare my life!


    P-please, spare my life…!”


    “I’ll consider once you answer my question. If you need a refresher, I asked why you recognized me as


    your young master,” replied Gerald.


    “W-well, Young Master’s appearance highly matches yours! It’s almost as though you’re his


    doppelg?nger! With that said, there’s no way I could’ve been able to easily tell you apart! Though, I do


    wonder if you’re also a member of the Crawford family… After all, there’s no other reason you could


    look so simr!” exined the man who was still aching terribly.


    “…Oh? The Crawford family, you say?” replied Gerald as his eyes momentarily lit up.


    Observing the squirming man, Gerald could see that the priest appeared to be a master-in-training,


    though he was probably still far from achieving his goal.


    ‘Does that mean that the Crawfords that he’s talking about are the other Crawford family that Second


    uncle found out about? Are these people connected to grandpa…?’ Gerald wondered in slight


    bewilderment.


    “Tell me the location of your Crawfords,” said Gerald.


    “T-they’re currently on Yearning Ind! Are… Are you from that family as well?” asked the priest in


    shock.


    However, before Gerald could say anything in response, the priest seemed to realize something.


    Staring wide-eyed at Gerald, he then said, “I… I get it now! Are you from the Crawford family from


    Northbay?!”


    “You got me red-handed. Regardless, I’m assuming that Daryl is the head of the Crawfords from


    Yearning Ind?” asked Gerald in an indifferent tone.


    “T-that’s right!” replied the priest as he nodded.


    ‘So there really are two separate Crawford families… Then… Doesn’t that mean that everything


    Second uncle found out about is true…? But… Why would grandpa do any of this…?’ Gerald thought


    to himself with a slight frown, feeling extremely puzzled.


    Whatever the case was, Gerald had a hunch that his family’s disappearance had something to do with


    these other Crawfords. He now knew that he had a lookalike in the other family as well. After all, the


    priest truly seemed to have believed that he was his young master earlier.


    As Gerald frowned slightly while thinking about all the clues he had just gathered, the priest suddenly


    grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground. Following that, murderous intent seemed to re out of his


    body as he tossed the dirt toward Gerald’s head!

    However, instead of dirt, the contents he threw now appeared to be a volley of golden needles that


    glowed brightly as they flew toward Gerald’s head!


    Much to the priest’s surprise, Gerald’s essential qi simply blocked the needles when they got too close.


    Watching as the momentarily petrified priest stared wide-eyed at the falling needles that were slowly


    reduced to dust, Gerald then asked, “You already know my identity, no? In other words, you should


    know full well that we’re from the same n by this point. With that in mind, why are you still trying to


    kill me?”


    “T-there’s a huge bounty on your head if we manage to kill you!” replied the terrified man.


    “And who was it who issued that order? Also, were you the ones who had kidnapped my family?” asked


    the puzzled Gerald, wondering why all this was necessary in the first ce.


    “If you wish to learn more, you should ask Mr. Hoyt yourself!” replied the priest as he sneakily lit up a


    paper talisman…


    Shortly after, the talisman began releasing multi-colored smoke that quickly dissipated into the air!


    Knowing that it was most probably some sort of secret code, Gerald then turned to look at theughing


    priest who smugly said, “Look, I know that you’re just one of those lowly Crawfords who’s managed to


    slip away. I bet you hadn’t expected me to fire off a warning signal while you were questioning me,


    right? Regardless, you’re done for this time, kid!”


    Feeling even more puzzled now, Gerald then replied, “…Why are you even getting so excited for? I


    was already aware that you were lighting that talisman up from the moment you started doing it, you


    know? Besides, I’m not going to just leave immediately after getting here. With that said, why are you


    so happy?


    “Hahaha! Since you look exactly like Young Master, I’m sure you have a pretty important role among


    the other lowly Crawfords! With that said, I’ll surely be promoted to deputy chief once I sessfully


    capture you! Just so you know, several experts are already making their way here! Does that answer


    your question?” replied the priest as heughed joyously.


    “Ah, I see, I see… So, you’re feeling proud of yourself, thinking that you were being resourceful


    earlier… You must be feeling ecstatic from assuming that you’ve already captured me by this point!


    Still, you keep repeating the phrase, ‘lowly Crawfords’… Just to clear things up a bit, I hope you realize


    that to me, you’re nothing more than an ant!” said Gerald with a wry smile on his face.
