Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1196 After saying that, Gerald himself began wondering, ‘People from my family are coming over…? Whocould they be?’

As for the others, many were clicking their tongues as they discussed how weird the turn of events wasgetting.

“Humph! You’d better give it some thought if you aren’t truly Mr. Crawford’s subordinate! I’ll say it rightnow that I dared to state the possibility that you aren’t working under Mr. Crawford since there wasonce a case where someone pretended that they were him! After deceiving several people in Northbay,the real Crawfords eventually caught wind of what the impersonator was doing. From that day onward,that person—along with his family—simply vanished off the face of the planet! With that in mind, if youtruly are an impersonator, now would be the time to confess! If you do, you’ll at least have a muchhigher chance of leaving alive!” said the youth from before.

Hearing that, Riley immediately gulped in fear. It seemed that the incident had just gotten a lotmessier… How was she going to settle this?

Cundrie herself was brimming with fear after hearing that people who were involved with ‘fake Mr.Crawfords’ would be completely exterminated along with their families. The worst part was that shenow knew that those from the actual Crawford family were coming over soon!

“I’m the real deal!” retorted Gerald.

“That’s quite enough!” shouted Cundrie at that moment, sending everyone silent as they took turnsexchanging glances with each other again.

Now knowing full well that she had potentially just created an overwhelming disaster, Riley didn’t evendare to say another word.

Mrs. Smith herself seemed to have caught on that something was amiss, and her earlier excitementhad now switched to fear. After all, if he truly was an imposter, they were all going to be exterminated!Nobody had the means to deal with the Crawford family.

“T-the truth is… The invitation card is fake…!” declared Cundrie as she bit her lower lip slightly beforetossing the card to the floor.

As the invitation card lay flat on the ground, Cundrie looked at the words written on it. ‘Inviting MissCundrie Smith to meet Mr. Craword at Mountain Top Villa!’ The more she looked at the words, the moreshe felt like they were contemptuously mocking her. She simply wasn’t able to bear keeping the façadeup.novelbin

“…So it really is a fake!” shouted several people from the crowd as another uproar began brewing.

While Noel was stunned by the revelation, Xyon himself nearly tumbled to the floor in his delight. Hehad earlier been under so much pressure that he even ended up wetting himself! Then again, nobodycould blame him since the amount of pressure he was facing surpassed that of what any regularperson could deal with.

Feeling like he was just reborn, Xyon then excitedly said, “I… I’m going to get a change first!”

As the man quickly ran off to change his pants, hoping to make a speedy return to watch the rest of thedrama, the anxious and teary-eyed Mrs. Smith turned to look at her daughter before asking, “What…What exactly happened, daughter…?”

Heaving a long sigh, Cundrie then replied, “…It was a tactic I thought of so that Yves Snyder wouldgive up on proposing to me today… I had hoped that after presenting him with difficulties, I wouldn’t

have to decline his proposal in the first place! Still, I’m amazed none of you caught on sooner! Humph!Do any of you have any idea of how many beautiful women surround themselves around Mr. Crawford?Why would he ever invite me to Mountain Top Villa!”

Cundrie said all that with only a single breath, and it was evident that she was placing all the blame andresponsibility on herself.

“S-sister, I-!” cried out Riley, not even sure what to say anymore at this point.

“If those from the Crawford family come later and wish to investigate the incident, just place the blameon me! I’m the only one who arranged for the impersonating incident to happen and it has nothing to dowith my family!” added Cundrie.

Mrs. Smith herself looked like she had gone insane at that moment. After all, throughout the past fewminutes, she had gone through a rollercoaster of emotions. Finding no better way to vent her immenseanger, she turned to look at Gerald before shouting, “You… You son of a b*tch! You’ve ruined the Smithfamily for good this time!”

Following that, she ran over to a table and grabbed some sweets before throwing them at Gerald!

As Cundrie burst into tears and ran over to stop her desperate mother from continuing to take heranger out on Gerald, the crowd began throwing scornful boos at both Gerald and Cundrie.

Even so, Gerald retained an oddly composed expression.

Walking over to where Cundrie had earlier tossed the card, Gerald picked it up, took a look at it, andthen said, “Well, I guess I’ll officiate this invitation card then. If you’re free, Miss Smith, then I invite youover to Mountain Top Villa to have a chat with me!”

Upon hearing that, the crowd momentarily went silent again.
