Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1141 Both Lord Fenderson and Joshua were sent back to the apartment less than an hour later. By that time,however, Lord Fenderson was already seriously ill and Mindy was still in a coma.

Seeing this, Gerald skipped the pleasantries with Joshua and immediately provided him with newprescriptions for the two individuals.

Once he was done with that, Gerald headed out into the streets. Since it was already evening, it wasonly logical for the young lord to have returned home by now.

As he walked on, Gerald saw how lively the streets currently were, with many pedestrians gettingimmersed in the exciting atmosphere.

‘Hearing the name of the Holy Witchcraft alone usually prompts people to associate it with feelings ofwickedness… What did that group of people do? And why are there so many who have come over toworship them?’ Gerald thought to himself.

It wasn’t long before he arrived at the door of Linus’s Yonwick Manor.

Since the manor was the reception point for the young lord’s arrival, there was already a near-impenetrable crowd by the time Gerald got there.

Standing at the manor’s entrance, were several young apprentices of the Yonwick family who had beentasked with receiving the important guests.

Due to that, it was no wonder why Gerald’s path was blocked by them when he tried to enter.

“Hey now, you can’t just enter the manor all willy-nilly! Who even allowed you entry?”

“Oh? Didn’t Linus tell you I was coming?” replied Gerald.

“Who the hell even are you? How dare you address my uncle by his name! I’ll have you know that allthe guests present today are both influential and powerful people, many of whom are well over the ageof fifty! Nice try, but I’ve had my share of opportunists like you!” shouted the youth coldly in return.

“There’s no need to talk to him that way… After all, a single glance is all it takes to be able to tell thathe comes from foreign lands! Maybe he just wanted to enter to have a look after seeing so manypeople going in and out of the manor! The extravagance of this place could also have piqued hisinterest! So again, there’s no need to be so fierce!” said a charming woman as she smiled subtly whilelooking at Gerald.

From the way she spoke, it was evident that the woman had a good first impression of Gerald. After all,not only did his body seem to be in tiptop condition, he also looked extraordinarily friendly. Thecombination of the two gave Gerald the look of a learned gentleman. It was the reason why she hadspoken up for him.

Just like how men were susceptible to helping beautiful women, women—like her—were also prone toaiding handsome men.novelbin

“Regardless, do you truly wish to enter…?” asked the woman, continuing to smile.

Looking more closely at her, Gerald could see that she seemed to be in her twenties. Her hair had alsobeen tied in a ponytail and her smile was particularly sweet.

Seeing that he wasn’t answering her question, the woman then added, “…You know, we’re a littleunderstaffed right now… Why don’t you come along inside with me?”

Before Gerald could even reply, the woman was already dragging Gerald into the manor like how aparent would drag their child.

“Humph! That younger sister of mine is way too kind… Since Queeny’s cried before just by seeingsmall animals die, it wouldn’t surprise me that she felt compassionate toward him just because Iscolded him a little earlier! Sometimes I wonder if she truly is a Yonwick!” muttered the man to himselfas he watched Queena Yonwick lead Gerald deeper into the manor.

After walking for a while, Queena eventually stopped before saying, “Well, this is the place! That, overthere, is Mr. Yonwick, and I’ve already notified him about your presence. If any of the guests requireany help, just head over to them and lend them a hand! I’ll be heading out there myself to serve themas well!”

Flashing him a smile, she then waved at him before leaving.

“…That young woman really is nothing like the other Yonwicks—at least the ones I’ve come acrossbefore—at all! What an enthusiastic person!” muttered Gerald to himself as he couldn’t help but smilein resignation. Regardless, that woman truly was rather interesting.

As he had said, however, she was a little too enthusiastic as well. It made him embarrassed to admit toher that he was actually here to assassinate people. Some people were certainly harder to reject thanothers.

“Hmm? Hey, you there! You were the one Mr. Yonwick called over, right? Come over here already andserve us some drinks!” shouted a young man rather unceremoniously.

The one who had called out to Gerald was seated—around one of the many tables that had beenplaced outside the manor—alongside a few other young men and women.

Since they had noticed that it was Queena who had brought him here,—and they knew for a fact thatMr. Yonwick had put her in charge of miscellaneous tasks—putting two and two together, they figuredthat Gerald was under her, which meant that he had the same tasks that she did.

Hearing that, a frown formed on Gerald’s face.

While he was slightly angry by the order, he knew that since he hadn’t rejected Queena’s enthusiasticoffer earlier, it was akin to him agreeing with her suggestion.

With that in mind, Gerald knew that it would be imprudent of him to vent his anger out just like that.
