Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1568
The two hadn’t met each other in years…

“…Gerald… You… You know all these people…?” asked the befuddled Leila.

How was any of this possible? All these people were international dignitaries! There was no way Gerald could be acquainted with them, right?

“Them? Well, in a way…” replied Gerald rather indifferently as he turned to look at Chairman Chac.

“W-worry not, Mr. Crawford! I definitely won’t let him off that easily! I’ll teach him a good lesson for even daring to disturb your peace!” stuttered the middle-aged man—whose forehead was already drenched in sweat—while pointing at Frederick.

“C-come on! I dare you!” retorted Frederick who was honestly getting a little scared when he realized just how many guards were present.

Turning to look at Leila once more, Gerald then said, “…Since she’s an old friend of mine, I’ll let tonight’s little incident slide. However! There won’t be a next time! Now leave before I change my mind!”

After saying that, Gerald cleared his throat before adjusting his clothes a little, signifying that the night was cold and he wanted to be left alone already.

“…You… The hell do you think you are?! Do you think I’m someone you can just give orders all willy-nilly?!” shouted the devastated Frederick.

He just couldn’t believe that something like this was happening, especially when the one in power was someone close to his age! None of this felt convincing at all!

“Oh? You’re not planning to go even though I’ve allowed you to leave in one piece?” asked Gerald as he stared at Frederick with a slight frown.

“Crawford, this may be your territory, but if you’re daring enough, why don’t you come along with me to Saudi Arabia? I’ll make sure your life ends without even knowing what killed you! Mark my words!” growled Frederick whose eyes were now reddened in rage.

Seeing that things weren’t getting any better and understanding that Frederick was only going to continue getting more and more enraged, Leila simply looked helplessly at Gerald, shaking her head before saying, “That’s quite enough, Gerald. Don’t you think you’ve acted tough enough already? Do you really not know how truly powerful the Lynn family is? While I know you’re rich, the world is enormous, you know? How much of it have you even seen? I hope you realize that there are many others who are more powerful than you. Do you truly think you’ll be able to live peacefully after offending Young Master Lynn tonight?”

Frederick himself was finally realizing what kind of person he had been messing around with earlier…

Now completely engulfed in fear, all of them instantly tried to leave.

However, before anyone could even make it past a few steps, Carlos placed his hand over Frederick’s shoulder before sneering, “Hey now, little kid. You didn’t leave when we allowed you to. What’s the rush now?”

“W-what do you want…?” stuttered Frederick with a gulp.

“Well, since it’s against the rules of the Sacrasolis Palace to kill you, I won’t do so… However…” replied Carlos as he turned to look at the hot springs where Frederick had poured the wine in earlier.

“Well, while you’re spared of the death penalty, it isn’t that easy for you to escape punishment… With that said, all of you have to drink up all the water in this pool! Otherwise, I’ll make sure I toss all of you out in completely mangled states!” added Carlos in a stern voice, a cold smile on his face.
