Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 781
Gerald himself was wondering the same thing. It looked as though some sort of conflict was going on. Everything seemed to be going fine before this. How did things end up this way?
As Gerald stared at the scene in bewilderment, he could see a middle-aged woman kneeling within the crowd.
The members of the families affiliated with the Fendersons seemed to be filled with rage and even Lord Fenderson himself had an ugly expression on his face.
“It’s her! It’s that sinner’s maid from back then! Hurry up and tell us where Xara is now! If you speak the truth, we’ll consider sparing you!”
“Remember! The Crawfords and the Fendersons only got into a huge fight back then because of her! We, the affiliated families, were the ones who had suffered the most losses because of that battle! How pitiful my son was for having to grow up in such turmoil because of her! Lord Fenderson, if you’re hiding Xara anywhere, we demand that you hand her over to us!”
“That’s right! Hand her over so that you can give an account to our families!”
Many of the affiliated family members were now gathered around Lord Fenderson, demanding for Xara.
Noah himself was sneering at the side.
The conflict had started when Bryson reprimanded Noah in public for inviting the Longs without asking for his permission first. In retaliation, Noah then revealed the fact that the Fendersons had already located Xara’s old personal maid.
He was done having to play nice with Bryson.
Noah’s actions had stemmed from the fact that he had regarded himself as the head of several big families for years by now. One could even say he was almost as influential as the Fendersons.
Aside from that, Bryson had also placed him in an awkward situation when Noah went looking for him to ask for some assets while also discussing his son’s marriage with Jasmine.
His grievances that he had piled-up up till this point were by no means a small amount.
Since he couldn’t achieve his goal peacefully, he was going to use the event to his advantage and go all out today.
He was glad that he had previously sent several of his men over to monitor every move the Fendersons made. In addition to having quite a number of informers from within the family, he was able to gain information about everything they did.
It was why he managed to find out about the existence of Xara’s maid being there in the first place.
Noah even had a trump card in hand, and he had personally given it to Bryson a few days prior. Now that all the pieces were in place, he would simply allow the internal conflicts to erupt in all its splendor!
Bryson himself could only glare in rage at the crowd before him.
This conflict was nothing new to him. After all, they had secretly been fighting for many years by now.
While the Fenderson family was still colossal in size, it was now akin to a high-rise building that had lost its main supporting pillar. Though the outside looked majestic, its insides were already crumbling in a state of jeopardy.
It wasn’t as though Bryson hadn’t taken precautions against Noel and Yael either.
However, he had simply assumed that he would still be able to control both the father and son, even in his old age.
To think that both of them would make a move on him during his birthday banquet!
The accumulated grievances between both parties had already made things very stressful for him. Yet here Noah and Yoel were, deliberately trying to heighten the conflicts between them!
It was just like last time… Had he not wanted to calm and appease the affiliated families back then, he would never have been willing to sever his relationship with his very own daughter!
“It’s my grandfather’s eightieth birthday today! Are all of you here to celebrate it or did you come here just to criticize and question him?” said Jasmine rather coldly.
“Jasmine, while we’re naturally happy that it’s Lord Fenderson’s birthday today, our families have already lost too many of our relatives back then. It’s been more than twenty years since Lord Fenderson told us that he would compensate for our losses and also provide a reasonable explanation to all our families. Yet even after all this time, he won’t even let us catch a glimpse of Xara! The woman who was the cause of all that chaos back then!”
“The only ‘compensations’ we received were a few trivial assets and properties. What about the reasonable explanation we were promised? And to think after we’ve waited patiently all this time, Lord Fenderson was actually housing the maid who once used for Xara! If Mr. Schuyler hadn’t brought the matter to light, we would’ve never found out about this!”
“Our families have already been affiliated with the Fendersons for generations! How could Lord Fenderson do this to us? How can you even expect us to be appeased now?” said a middle-aged man indignantly.
“That’s right! Rather than continue debating the matter, I say we should just capture her maid and torture her till she tells us where Xara is!”
“Men! Drag her out immediately!”
As soon as those words were said, a few bodyguards working for the affiliated families rushed forward and grabbed Xenia by her arms.
“Presumptuous! All of you! I’m well aware that all of you are just pretending to look for her! Your main goal has always been to get your hands on the assets she owned back then!” said Jasmine, her tone frigid.
Hearing that, several of the more capable individuals within the crowd went silent.
“You can’t just put it that way, Jasmine. However, since you’ve already said it, it wouldn’t be right if the Schuylers didn’t use this chance to set a proper example! That’s right! While we had been delegated a small portion of the assets Xara owned in the beginning, the consequences that we had to pay for clearly outweighs what we should have received! It’s only right for us to demand for an equal distribution of assets!” replied Noah.
What he said wasn’t wrong either, since Xara and the eldest master of the Fenderson family were the ones who had held and controlled most of the assets and properties belonging to their family back then.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 782
It was obvious that Xara clearly had more power compared to Jasmine’s father back then.
Even if Xara’s assets were to be equally distributed among the affiliated families now, it wouldn’t be as simple as the families being able to gain equal footing with the Fendersons anymore.
This was probably what Noah and Yael had intended for to happen this entire time.
“You can all continue to dream on…” replied Jasmine angrily.
“Step aside for the moment, Jasmine. You don’t need to get involved in this!” said Bryson, a gloomy expression on his face.
Not daring to go against her grandfather’s words, she immediately stood aside.
Bryson then personally began negotiating with Noah.
While this was happening, Mindy suddenly began shouting, “Jasmine! Over here!”
Frowning, Jasmine then walked over to Mindy before realizing who else was with her. To her surprise, Gerald was present!
“Why are you here?”
“Let’s not bother about him for the moment. More importantly, what on earth is going on here? Are the affiliate families trying to rebel against us?” asked Mindy as she hurriedly held on to Jasmine’s hand.
Jasmine simply nodded before saying, “Grandpa’s already told me to keep an eye on the Schuyler family once the birthday banquet is over. After all, the Schuylers have been conspiring against us for many years now…”
After pausing for a moment to look at Gerald, she then continued, “They’re getting bolder by the year… To think that he would actually cause a scene during grandpa’s birthday banquet! No wonder he dared to make demands when he came looking for grandpa this morning!”
“Huh? What kind of demands? Oh wait, it must’ve been a proposal for you and Yael to get married, right?” asked Mindy.
In response, Jasmine gave a simple nod.
“Pfft! Is he really aspiring for something that he’s clearly not even worthy of? Grandpa must’ve immediately rejected his proposal, right? How did grandpa turn him down anyway for him to get so much courage? He seems really desperate!”
“I… Well… He accepted the rejection once he found out that I was bound to a marriage contract which had been made from when I was still a child!” replied Jasmine in a soft voice as her face began blushing slightly.
“…Huh? What? With whom? Why haven’t I heard of this before?”
“Just! Forget it for now! I don’t want to talk about this anymore!” replied Jasmine as she shook her head.
To take her mind off things, she focused on the scene unfolding between Noah and her grandfather.
“I’ll be honest with you, Lord Fenderson. I’ve already been very lenient and merciful toward you. As long as you’re willing to give us the compensation we rightfully deserve, we’ll definitely continue following the Fendersons with all our hearts in future. After all, it isn’t really necessary for me to expose everything here, am I not right?” said Noah as he sneered.
Bryson immediately knit his brows tightly together when he heard that.
Bryson finally understood why Noah had a sudden change in character back when Noah had told him that he had managed to locate Xara’s daughter. To think that Bryson had initially thought that Noah had finally turned over a new leaf!
It was all just part of his grand scheme!
Bryson was now in this mess because he had fallen for Bryson’s trickery. He had been careless due to his love for his daughter.
However, at the end of the day, the older a person was, the wiser he tended to be. Bryson had no doubt taken extra precautionary and security measures in case he ever had to deal with such a situation.
“Hahaha! I have no idea what you’re hinting at, Noah! While it is true that I’ve found Xenia, I only brought her back to interrogate her about Xara’s whereabouts. Sadly, Xenia doesn’t know anything at all! I simply took her in since I couldn’t bear the thought of leaving her to wander outside alone. Now that I’ve made myself clear, what else do you wish to talk about?” replied Bryson calmly.
“Is that so? Hahaha! I really admire you, Lord Fenderson! However, that doesn’t explain the beautiful girl in the car who was trying to leave the villa this morning! It was such a coincidence too that my subordinates had managed to catch a glimpse of her, subsequently preventing her from leaving! Mr. Lambert and Mr. Wellington, do you wish to know how beautiful that girl truly is? Why, she’s so beautiful that she looks exactly like Xara! If you don’t believe me, I can order my subordinates to bring her over right now!” said Noah as he laughed.
“…You… you took Queta away?” asked Bryson, finally losing his cool as his body began trembling uncontrollably.
“So her name is Queta! She refused to say a word to me when I asked her for it! Regardless, everyone else will now have their chance to question her! Being her in, men!” yelled Noah.
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 783
Upon hearing Noah’s command, a few men stepped forward, dragging a girl along.
Her head was lowered and her mouth was shut tight. However, her appearance alone was enough to shock everyone present.
“She… She looks exactly like her!”
“That’s right! I almost thought that she was a much younger version of Xara!”
“We’ve all been deceived! Lord Fenderson must have already known about Xara’s whereabouts a long time ago! Yet he left all us affiliated families in the dark on purpose!”
While the audience began discussing aloud, Queta herself bore an extremely ugly expression on her face. After all, she had been physically hurt and her body was currently feeling very weak.
“It… It really is my aunt’s daughter! So it turns out that grandpa’s already found aunt’s daughter!” said Jasmine.
“Queta!” shouted Bryson, a stern expression on his face.
He had initially arranged for someone to secretly send Queta away that morning. Little did he know that there would be a snitch working for the Schuyler family! The current scene was a result of that.
“So, lord Fenderson. We now have all the necessary witnesses and evidence! What else do you have to say for yourself? We demand that Xara be handed over to us as soon as possible!”
All the guests were now gathering around Bryson, glaring at him angrily.
Bryson was at a complete loss of words, a tense expression on his face.
While he truly wanted to save Queta, after facing all the provocations from the Schuyler family, he had no real choice but to give an explanation to all the other affiliated families
As he was wondering how to deal with the dilemma, a voice suddenly called out from behind everyone.
“Hey now, why are all of you bothering the Fendersons? I’m here, you know!”
Turning around to see who had shouted, everyone saw a woman walking toward them from the outside.
“…Huh? Who on earth is that? How did she even get in?”
“Oh god, just look at her face! How absolutely ugly!”
“I can’t continue looking at her anymore… I can already feel goosebumps on my skin!”
As the commotion grew louder and louder, Xavia finally lay eyes on the woman in question.
