Chapter 1011

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1011 “…What?”

Theo was so shocked by what he had just witnessed that that was the only thing he was able to mutteras he immediately stood up.

Everyone else was equally as shocked, especially the poor waiter who had been standing right behindthe door—ready to serve more dishes—when all that happened.

Zander himself had both his feet on the floor again at this point. While he had initially assured himselfearlier that Gerald was definitely just an ordinary young man without any actual capabilities, he nowknew how wrong he was.

To think that he would actually be able to smash a wooden door to pieces with just a single vegetableleaf! Just how much training did he have to go through to get that strong?!

The atmosphere in the room was getting increasingly stressful by the second.

Clearly feeling the pressure, Theo—who was currently drenched in cold sweat—mumbled to himself,“To think that one could actually inflict pain upon others simply by using a leaf!”

To attempt to ease the overwhelming awkwardness of the situation, one of the people from theLovewell family—who had been standing at the side this entire time—smiled and asked, “M-masterZabinski, I couldn’t quite catch that… Could you repeat what you said…?”

Feeling more and more cold sweat dripping down his chin, the completely dazed Theo simply repeated,“I said, to think that one could actually inflict pain upon others simply by using a leaf!”

Now finally feeling the adrenaline of fear, Theo then added, “H-how eye-opening! To think that such askill could even exist on this planet!”

Theo was now looking at Gerald in a completely different light. Realizing that the map was still withhim, he immediately walked over to face Gerald and respectfully held out the item before saying, “M-Mr. Crawford! I apologize for not being an insightful person! Please have your map back!”

Seeing that, Zander and his family members exchanged glances with each other. In the end, all of themtook turns standing up.

“Please forgive me for my earlier imprudence, Mr. Crawford. For Kaleb’s sake, please consider helpingthe Lovewell family to rid us of our current crisis,” said Zander before bowing deeply before Gerald.

Putting the map away, Gerald casually replied, “What’s the big issue? Can’t Master Merrett resolve it?”

Gerald was only prompted to ask now since he had been given the map which, in all honesty, wassomething useful to him. He wasn’t really interested in meddling in the Lovewell family’s affairs just forKaleb’s sake either. He just didn’t want to feel like he owed any of them any favors.

“Well, the thing is…”

With that, Zander then began detailing everything regarding the incident.

As it turned out, the Lovewells had made themselves an enemy a while back. The enemy in questionleft them alone for a period of time, seemingly to return to his homeland.

However, upon his return, the Lovewells found out that even their most powerful bodyguards weren’table to take down the enemy. Though they had no idea how he had become so powerful during hisabsence, the more pressing issue was the fact that he had declared to kill a descendant of theLovewell family every ten days until none of them were left.novelbin

Up till this point, two descendants of the Lovewells had already been both harmed and eventually killeddespite Zander’s orders that prohibited any of the younger generations from ever leaving their homes.

For now, the remaining younger generations of the Lovewell family remained hiding in their homes.

The enemy himself went by the name of Damian Wake, and his goal was simple. The man simplywanted the Lovewells to be completely wiped off the face of the planet, but only after he had driventhem insane in fear.

Knowing that, the only thing Zander could do was hire a large group of experts to protect his family. Itwas also the reason why they had hosted the treasure exchange event a month earlier this year.

Their plan was to attract large groups of rich and powerful people to the event. The greater the numberof participants, the greater their strength. Besides, strength in numbers would also encourage theLovewells to remain vigilant and not just give in.

Hearing that, Gerald now understood why Haven and her siblings had to sneak out just to have somefun.

“While Damian was once one of the Logan Province’s rich heirs, both he and his father were equally aswicked. Since they constantly behaved so viciously, all the rich businessmen in the Logan Provinceboycotted them back then, ultimately resulting in their family falling apart. However, being the extremelypetty-minded person he is, we’re all aware that Damian won’t stop until he takes his revenge on all ofthe families that had boycotted them so many years ago, and I do mean all of them. Once his revengeon the Lovewell family has been sated, he’ll definitely start going after the other families as well!” saidKaleb.

“Speaking of which, we’ve previously made an appointment with him. Essentially, it’s a challenge to aduel due tomorrow night… It’s rather humiliating to admit it, but he’s so strong that I don’t think I’ll evenbe a match against him!” added the white-haired man as he shook his head with a sigh.

Looking at Gerald, Zander then respectfully said, “It would truly be a blessing to us should you decideto lend us a hand, Mr. Crawford…”

Since Gerald didn’t really have much of a good impression on Zander, he turned to face Kaleb beforereplying, “…Sure. I’ll go over to have a look.”

“How wonderful to hear!”
