Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 331

With Liara now being held captive, Gerald began driving to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment.

Upon arriving at the villa, Gerald called out to the bodyguards who had opened the gates for the limousine to enter.

They were told to bring Liara to a vacant room and keep a constant eye on her.

“Wow, little driver! I didn’t expect you to have so much power over the guards here! They’re listening to all your

commands!” said Dorothy as she laughed.

“Mr. Crawford, you’re here!”

Zack and Michael saw Gerald entering the building and they hurried over to greet him. They greeted Mr. Kendall

respectfully as well.

While Zack and Michael usually appeared assertive in Mayberry City, in front of Jessica and Mr. Kendall, they instead

gave the impression of just being regular minions.

However, that wasn’t what caught the four new people’s attention. Mr. Kendall, Drake, Tyson, and Dorothy were all

stunned when they heard how the two addressed Gerald.

“Mr. Crawford?”

“You’re Mr. Crawford?” Mr. Kendall asked, shocked.

“That would be me, yes. I had wanted to introduce myself earlier but the situation hadn’t allowed for it,” replied

Gerald, a bitter smile on his face.

Mr. Kendall coughed. The revelation was both surprising to him as well as shameful.

After all, they had earlier been discussing all manner of rumors about him for quite a while when he was, quite

literally, sitting right next to them in the limousine.

To think that this casually dressed and introverted person was actually Mr. Crawford. It seemed that what the eldest

young lady had told him was really true.

“…I see. So… You’re Mr. Crawford?” said Dorothy. Though she had initially been comfortable talking to Gerald due

to how honest a person the driver seemed, she couldn’t help but feel shocked at the revelation.

Gerald simply nodded slowly, a wry smile on his face.

Gerald hadn’t expected any less a reaction. What’s done was done and the four were led to a dinner banquet which

had been arranged by Michael. The five then slowly got to know one another better as they ate and drank.

“Mr. Crawford, the eldest young lady and the master have sent us here to pass on an important announcement. I

believe that the matter has been brought up several times between you and the eldest young lady,” explained Mr.

Kendall respectfully.

“While the eldest young lady completed her assessment six years ago, yours is to officially begin now. The family

has decided to auction off Mayberry Commercial Street which had initially belonged to both you and the eldest

young lady. Once the auction is complete, you will be given an exclusive asset. With said asset, you will need to

create a completely new group to run in Mayberry City. You’ll have to control and develop it on your own as well!”

This was nothing new to Gerald. On the contrary, Jessica had previously told Gerald about this many, many times.

Because of that, he had prepared himself for the assessment for quite a long time now.

His previous discussion to set up two projects under his name, them being Exceptional Live and Yorknorth Mountain,

had already been approved.

However, he had not anticipated that his family would auction off Mayberry Commercial Street.

“While I understand that the goal is to develop something on my own, Mayberry Commercial Street is already very

profitable. Is there really a need to auction it off?” asked Gerald as he smiled bitterly.

Gerald had experienced many things there and it bore some sentimental value to him now.

“Well, the profit gained was simply used to assess both you and the eldest young lady. The family could never allow

such a small group to survive forever. However, Mr. Crawford, if you really like the place, you can buy it again in the

future for your own entertainment and leisure!” Mr. Kendall couldn’t really grasp the meaning behind Gerald’s

question.

However, Gerald still found his answer from Mr. Kendall’s statement. While it was true that Mayberry Commercial

Street was impressive, compared to the other industries owned by the Crawford family worldwide, the street was

nothing special.

There was nothing he could do but allow his family to auction it off.

Besides, he was also not short of money anymore. Owning Mayberry Commercial Street would only be for bragging

rights now and he didn’t want any part of that!

“Speaking of which, Mr. Crawford, a portion of the Crawford family’s defense force in Mayberry City will also be

under you in the future. Drake and Tyson themselves will be working as your personal bodyguards,” said Mr.

Kendall.

After saying that, he looked toward Zack.

Zack immediately caught on to what Mr. Kendall was hinting at, and carefully retrieved a small machine with a red

button on it. He handed it gently to Gerald.

Gerald was no stranger to the contraption.

Back when Nigel was very close to killing him, Zack had pressed the button to summon forty to fifty helicopters to

save him.

“This device functions as a communication tool for Military Emergencies. It now belongs to you!”

The next step was for them to sign some transfer documents and to be done with all the formalities. By the time

everything was completed, it was already almost eight o’clock at night.

To tell the truth, it was only today that Gerald realized just how much influence and reach his family had over

Mayberry City.

It was surprising, to say the least.
