Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1264
Even Jace found himself tearing up in joy. Their sheer delight had stemmed from the fact that all of thebabies were most probably making it out alive now!
After carefully examining the babies—just for good measure—both men found themselves claspingtheir hands together while heaving huge sighs of relief to calm their excitement. How absolutelyunbelievable!
“Mr. Crawford truly can bring the dead back to life!” cheered both men in immense admiration.
Gerald himself simply smiled weakly at their statement.
Compliments and admiration didn’t really mean much to him. As long as the babies were healed, thatmeant that he had managed to successfully achieve his goal.novelbin
Now that he was done with this issue, his mind immediately wandered to the next concern. Who wasthe person in charge of committing all these atrocities in Mayberry City? And was that person strongeror weaker than him? Regardless, if he didn’t find them soon, that person could definitely begin harmingothers!
He needed to quickly make a move anyway since he had already used his inner strength earlier. Eventhough he wasn’t sure whether Queena would be able to detect him—given that she was currently ather most vulnerable—Gerald knew that he still had to immediately rush over to Mountain Top Villa.
After all, as long as he was close to the Zircobsite stone, Queena probably wouldn’t be too keen onapproaching him. With that in mind, he quickly made his way out of the isolation room.
Once he was outside, however, he was instantly greeted by looks of excitement and admiration fromthose who had heard that Gerald had successfully saved the children.
Knowing how proficient he was with the Divine Acupuncture Therapy technique, some of the olderdoctors even began kneeling before Gerald, hoping that he would take them under his wing asapprentices!
At that moment, Walbridge—who had a cold look on his face—suddenly said, “Amazing, aren’t you?You’re just lucky, young lad!”
Though Gerald was initially planning to leave immediately, upon hearing Walbridge’s words, he turnedto face the arrogant man before replying in a cold tone, “…Speaking of which, do you remember yourearlier promise?”
“…W-what?” said Walbridge, stunned.
“I distinctly remember you saying that you’d do whatever I asked you to as long as I was able to healthe babies!”
“That’s right, Dr. Lumb! All of us heard you make the promise as well!” said one of the doctors.
Seeing that everyone was now looking at him, Walbridge puffed his chest up—in his attempt to look likean honorable person—before saying, “Hah! I’ve always been a man of my word! Tell me what it is thatyou want!”
With how pretentious Walbridge was still being, Gerald could only look at him contemptuously beforeordering, “Very well! I want you to fart!”
“…I-I beg your pardon…?” asked Walbridge, clearly taken aback.
“I told you to fart! Do it at least a hundred times in front of everyone here!”
By this point, everyone was already roaring with laughter.
“Y-you… Do you think I can just fart whenever I want to…?” muttered Walbridge, feeling extremelyhumiliated.
“Why not? It’s just a hundred so it shouldn’t be too difficult! Allow me to assist!” replied Gerald as heswiftly poked one of Walbridge’s acupuncture points with a finger.
Almost immediately after, a loud farting sound filled the corridor. Then another, and another.
As Walbridge continued to fart against his will, his face was already pale from all the humiliation. Try ashe might, he simply couldn’t hold back at all!
With everyone now focused on Walbridge—as they covered their noses—Gerald took the opportunityto use the chaos to make his escape!
Not long after, Walbridge released one final and extra-long fart before finally crying out, “I-I’m done!One hundred farts in total!”
To everyone’s surprise, Gerald was no longer there! Though some of the old doctors wanted to attemptchasing him down, they quickly realized that it was probably going to be a futile effort. After all, theynow realized that Gerald had planned his escape the moment he ordered Walbridge to begin farting asa distraction!
It was a little while later when Gerald began speeding his car toward Mountain Top Villa. The eveningsky was already darkening as the car accelerated past a dense forest.
As he continued driving down the desolate road, Gerald squinted his eyes before widening them inshock. Stepping on the brakes, the car came to a screeching halt as Gerald’s eyelids twitched rapidlyat the old lady squatting in the middle of the road.
The old lady herself seemed to be burning some papers in hand by tossing them into a brazier of sorts.Whatever the case was, the old lady was by no means an unfamiliar face to Gerald.
