Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1303 “But it’s true, uncle! I’m not pulling your leg at all! Just take a look if you don’t believe me! I’m telling youthis charming little lady’s eyes resemble yours a lot!” persisted the woman.

As he watched her signal for him to take the photograph from her already outstretched hand, the oldman simply looked at her for a while before giving in and taking it from her.

The second he got a clearer look at the person in the photograph, he seemed to momentarily freeze inplace. He was so shocked that he couldn’t even hold onto the photograph properly, resulting in it fallingto the floor.

If it wasn’t obvious enough, the girl in the photo was Queta.

Seeing him trembling like that was a first for the woman. Adding that to the fact that his expression hadchanged so much upon looking at the photo, the woman couldn’t help but ask in a worried tone, “…Uncle? Is something the matter…?”

Quickly picking the photograph up again, he then replied, “…I’m fine. Everything’s fine… Speaking ofwhich, I’m done bandaging Gerald and I need to head out for a bit. Take care of him in the meantime!”

With that said, he then hastily turned around before leaving.

“…He’s acting rather strange…” muttered the woman to herself as she scratched the back of her head.

Though she was mischievous in nature, she always obeyed that man’s words. With that, she then satby the bed with her eyes closed, both hands over her cheeks.

Opening an eye to look at the resting youth, she was instantly caught by surprise. Since the middle-aged man had wiped the blood off Gerald’s face earlier, she now saw that Gerald was, in fact, quitehandsome.

Stretching her hand out, she gently pinched his face before saying, “You look quite handsome, youknow? Still, the more I look at you, the more I feel that your eyes resemble uncle’s slightly… I wonderwhy…”

In truth, the woman had always secretly admired that middle-aged man. After all, though he was ugly,that man’s demeanor was always graceful and his behavior was nothing short of gentlemanly. Whatmore, he was also extremely mysterious.

Whenever she asked him about how he had gotten all those wounds on his face, he always repliedwith the same thing, stating that he was simply burned badly. As for photographs of him in the past,there were none to even speak of.

That fact alone saddened the woman greatly. After all, she was extremely interested in knowing how helooked in the past.

After staring at Gerald for some time, her ears twitched as she turned to look at the door. There, theman sat as he smoked quietly.

‘…He really is acting extremely strangely today!’ the woman thought to herself.

The man himself was looking at Queta’s photo again as he continued smoking. If one were to paycloser attention to him under the light of the moon, they would be able to see his body trembling slightlyas tears slowly began welling in his eyes, his gaze at the photograph filled with adoration.

After being in a daze for quite a while, he eventually kept the photograph carefully. Looking up at thenight sky, his initial tears were no longer there. Instead, it was replaced with a look of resoluteness and

ruthlessness.

“The incident will be settled sooner or later… It isn’t far from now!” declared the man coldly as heglared daggers at a large and remote mountain in the distance…

…

Meanwhile, the Gunters and those from Judgement Portal were currently assembled at the Gunterfamily manor’s brightly lit hall within Ancient City.

At that moment, Yreth—the old lady of the Gunter family—was sitting at the seat of honor as sheexclaimed in shock, “…What? Hogan’s been defeated? But how is that even possible! Gerald’s merelya weak, small fry compared to Hogan! How was he actually able to escape?!”

Hogan was an exceptional man who had already achieved the middle stage of the Spirit Earth Realm.With that kind of strength, he was a frightening man who could do pretty much whatever he pleased.

The Gunters themselves were well aware of how terrifying he was, since before they had formed analliance with Judgement Portal, they had attempted to fight that beast of a man. Despite howexceptional the Gunter family members were, none of them were any match for Hogan, and they allended up getting utterly defeated. That alone painted the image of how strong that man truly was.

Since the Judgement Portal had sent Hogan over to capture Gerald this time around, the Gunters hadassumed that everything was already in the bag. They were so sure, in fact, that they even hadGerald’s jail cell prepared!novelbin

Shockingly enough, not only was Gerald able to escape, but Hogan also ended up getting terriblyinjured!

Hogan himself was currently lying on a chair, his expression extremely ruthless as members of theJudgement Portal continued bandaging his wounds.
