The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 291

A shout broke through the silence of the crowd.

Damien’s goons stopped when they were just about to beat up the taxi driver.

The crowd immediately looked towards the direction of where the shout came from.

It was Gerald.

While standing here alone and seeing the taxi driver refusing to give up his information even though he was beaten up to the brink of death, Gerald felt a sense of gratitude towards him.

Now, not only was he unconscious, but his family was also dragged into this mess, and he was about to have his tendons plucked and severed by Damien’s goons.

Even if Gerald was inhumane, he would still stand up against this violence!

Gerald walked through the crowd.

“I’m the one you’re looking for, so why are you torturing the driver?”

Gerald glared at Damien, stone cold.

“Ha! Brat, I sure as hell found you, it seems that my gut was right!”

Damien smiled cynically the moment he saw Gerald.’

Earlier, Damien ordered his men to barge into Wynn Thornton’s house so they could capture Gerald and Wynn.

He was bound to teach the two a good lesson.

But at that moment, a taxi suddenly accelerated and drove away.

It drew some attention, especially from Damien Rye, who glanced twice towards the taxi and did not think much of it.

He thought to himself, even if Wynn wanted to take the kid on the run, she still had to drive, but her car was still parked downstairs.

What followed next was when his own men rushed down and reported that there was no one home anymore!

Damien Rye immediately put the pieces together!

Since it was kind of a last-minute thing, he temporarily borrowed his friend’s goons from the nearest street to go after them. It was only just a short five or six minutes, so where could Wynn and her child run to?

Shoot!

F*ck, they must be in that taxi!

He immediately picked out a shop’s surveillance camera and retrieved the taxi’s license plate info and other details.

Then, he had his goons tail the taxi.

The driver turned out to be quite insensible and did not cooperate with them at first.

Which they forced him to only lead them to this place.

But then, he still refused to give up their location.

What the driver had in mind was quite simple. He wanted no part of their business.

He did not want to go against his own conscience to betray others.

He figured that he would let Damien and his goons beat him up, then they would leave him alone.

Hence, he clenched his jaws and withstood to the beatings. This way, Damien might even believe him.

As a result, the driver misjudged Damien Rye. There was no way Damien would fall for it that easily.

Which all led to what was happening now.

But for now, it did not matter to Damien anymore, since the brat he was looking for came out on his own.

“Tell me kid, where did Wynn go? Hm… but of course, it doesn’t matter whether you say it or not, because I’m going to teach you an unforgettable lesson later!”

Damien sneered.

“Damien Rye, I know you. You’re from the Rye family, but you do have to give some face to Mayberry International Inc, right? Just for your information, Zack Lyle and his men will be here in less than ten minutes!”

Truth to be told, Gerald started to panic too.

It would not be worth it to be beaten half to death by an *sshole like Damien just like that!

If he was to say he was Gerald Crawford, Damien would not believe it.

He could only mention Zack Lyle.

And when Damien heard of his name, his entire body shook with fear.

Back in Mayberry, Zack Lyle was on par with his own cousin, Henry Rye.

Zack was a business tycoon, and as for his own cousin, he had to rely on the power accumulated by his family through generations and generations in Mayberry, but yet he was still barely equal to Zack.

Now, the ruthless Michael Zeke and the people from Mayberry International Inc. were on their way.

Rumor has it that Michael Zeke was very powerful.

Therefore, it would be a lie for an asset like Damien who lived under the shadow of his cousin, to be unafraid when he heard of their names.

“Boss, don’t listen to this kid. Why would Mr Lyle come to a place like this!”

Immediately, one of his men tried to persuade him.

“Crap, of course I know that!” Damien cursed. “B*stard, you tried to scare me with Mr Lyle, I’ve seen this kind of trick too many times! Die! Go and get him!”

Damien waved his hand fiercely.

His group of bodyguards rushed at Gerald. The scene was even more frightening to the surrounding onlookers.

“Oh my, this kid will probably end up even worse than the driver this time!”

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 292

“Agreed. I guess he was scared out of his wits, that’s why he brought up Zack Lyle’s name, but why didn’t he say he’s Gerald Crawford?”

“Young people these days, they love messing around. Don’t they know that there are some people who cannot be messed with at all?”

The surrounding onlookers shook their heads and sighed.

But none of them dared to come out and do justice. They did not even dare to videotape the entire scene when the ruthless Damien Rye was around.

Gerald was being held down by a few bodyguards.

“Hahaha, hold his head down tightly. I’m going to bash his head into a bleeding pulp!”

Damien picked up a stick. He held the stick up high, ready to swing and smash.

Buzz!

Suddenly, more than thirty luxury cars came whizzing by.

A car took a sharp brake and swung its tail directly at the onlookers.

Then, a team of black-suited bodyguards came down from the cars.

The atmosphere was tense.

Two extremely agile bodyguards dashed speedily towards the scene, and with three strikes, they managed to wrestle Damien and forced him on the ground.

“Don’t you dare mess with me, do you guys know who I am? I’m Damien f*cking Rye, cousin of Henry Rye of the Rye Group, so don’t you dare touch me!”

Damien felt that this was something out of the ordinary as he felt the strength of the bodyguards.

Feeling things were getting helpless at his end, he hurriedly begged for mercy.

“Hmph, you’re lucky that I came earlier, otherwise not only will Damien die, but also me!”

Zack Lyle came trotting towards the scene.

He kicked Damien Rye right at his face.

Fresh blood spewed out of his mouth.

As soon as Zack heard that Gerald was in trouble, he immediately dropped all his work aside and brought his men over to resolve the situation.

Naturally, there were people coming over to find out what was going on, only then did they find out that someone was after Gerald again.

So, Zack immediately rushed to the scene, only to find out that he was almost too late!

If that stick smashed against his head.

Things would not go well for Gerald.

Even though Damien was from the Rye family, both Zack Lyle and Damien Rye would not survive the consequences either. Only a number of people in America knew about the strength of the Crawfords, and Zack was one of them.

It would be a lie if he said he was not afraid of them.

“Mr Crawford, are you alright?”

After beating up Damien Rye, Zack helped Gerald up tenderly.

“What? Mr Lyle, he’s Mr Crawford? The Crawford of Mayberry?”

Damien panicked.

He was also confused.

He was surprised that Zack would even come here, and even more shocked when Gerald was actually Gerald Crawford!

“Whew! How can you not recognize Gerald Crawford of the Crawford family…Bang!”

Before he could even finish speaking, Zack picked up the stick on the ground and smashed it towards Damien’s head.

The swing was so forceful to the point Damien’s eyes almost turned white.

“Mr Lyle… please, I’m the cousin of Henry Rye, could you please give him some face and spare me…”

“Spare you? Do you really think things are this simple?”

Then, another luxury car came whizzing. This time, more help came and the entire street was completely blocked.

Michael Zeke had brought more men over.

…

“Holy sht! Lilian, Sharon! Can the both of you please run quicker, something major is happening over at Scothow Elementary School! Fck! There are sixty to seventy luxury cars blocking the entire street!”

At that moment, many people on the street ran towards Scothow Elementary School upon hearing the news. They wanted to see what was happening there.

It was an extraordinary scene which they had never seen before. Sixty to seventy Rolls Royce Phantoms blocked the road, which was simply awesome!

Hayward Davies and the others were even more curious.

They immediately ran ahead of the others.

“What the hell happened?”

“I don’t know, I heard that a kid was beaten up, and then Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke from Mayberry came here. I also heard that quite a few commerce leaders and Mayberry’s higher ups are here. Just the bodyguards, they’re almost a hundred of them surrounding the scene!”

Hayward shouted excitedly.

“Holy sh*t!” Sharon Leslie and Lilian Cole were even more excited now. All of them rushed towards the scene…

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 293

The place was getting more and more crowded.

Damien Rye was also getting more dumbfounded.

He was the one who ordered his men to go after Gerald, and as a result, almost half of Mayberry, be it the military, or government officials, or even the business higher-ups came here instead.

Even his very own cousin, Henry Rye was at the scene. He was deeply embarrassed.

On the other hand, Gerald could not stay any longer after being surrounded by so many people.

If he stayed, his identity would definitely be exposed.

Moreover, the driver was still unconscious and no one was taking care of him. He approached the group of bodyguards and then instructed Flynn Lexington, who had just arrived, to do something about it.

They immediately drove the car, bypassing the crowd, and sent the driver to the hospital.

As for the rest of the matter, Gerald believed that Flynn would take care of it.

“Damn, they’re all really here!”

Hayward and the others finally managed to squeeze through the crowd after a lot of effort.

Seeing the spectacle in front of them, they were simply gobsmacked.

Lilian and Sharon’s jaws fell wide open.

“Isn’t that Flynn Lexington?”

Hayward immediately spotted Flynn who was standing majestically in the center.

He asked obnoxiously.
