Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1601

The second Gerald’s sentence ended, a crisp ‘crack’ could be heard. Following that, Yesirn’s screams of pain filled the air!

Gerald had just crushed one of Yesirn’s arms, and the excruciating pain that the young master was feeling was evident in his expression.

Seeing that, Henrick’s fury knew no bounds as he glared at Gerald while shouting, “You…!”

“Look, you old b*stard! Your son’s in my hands, and if you want him alive by the end of all this, you’d better hand over my sister! I’m sure you know what’ll happen to him if you don’t comply!” retorted Gerald straightforwardly, not wanting to waste any more time than he needed to with Henrick.

It was clearly a proposal that Henrick couldn’t reject unless he didn’t care about his son, and everyone there knew that.

In response, however, Henrick simply continued pointing at Gerald as he yelled, “Listen here, if my son dies neither you nor your sister will be able to leave Jaellatra alive as well!”

‘You’re really asking for it, aren’t you?’ Gerald thought to himself. Rather than feeling afraid, the more Henrick threatened him, the more annoyed he got.

With that, more cracking sounds could be heard, followed by another ear-piercing scream from Yesirn!

“P-please… dad…! Pro- promise him that you’ll return her…! I… I don’t want to die…!” pleaded the agonized young master.

Seeing his son being tortured so much, Henrick gave it some thought, gritting his teeth the entire time before eventually growling, “…Fine! You have my word that I’ll return Jessica to you!”

Understanding that the priority was to keep his son alive, Henrick then turned to face one of his servants before ordering, “Go bring Jessica over!”

Hearing that, the servant instantly rushed back to the Quartermain family manor to retrieve Gerald’s sister.

Before Henrick could say another thing, however, he heard Gerald shout, “You’d better not be playing any tricks on me, you old b*stard! If even the slightest harm comes to my sister, I guarantee that your family will have a bloody price to pay!”

Though Henrick remained silent, he was now more enraged than ever.

To think that he, the mighty and magnificent master of the Quartermain family, would actually be threatened by this inexperienced young man! If word about this got out, he’d surely drown in humiliation!

However, he wasn’t too worried about that scenario happening. After all, the second his son was out of danger, he could just kill both Gerald and his sister on the spot! Even if he failed to do so immediately, he was definitely not letting them leave Bario city unscathed.

It was around ten minutes later when Jessica was led into the pavilion under the guide of two servants…

Upon realizing Gerald’s presence, her eyes instantly teared up as she cried out, “Gerald…!”

She knew her younger brother would definitely come save her…!

“Don’t worry, sister! Both of us will surely leave this place safely!” consoled Gerald.

Looking at all the scars and injuries Jessica had suffered, her pitiful state only served to fuel Gerald with an even greater wrath. He really wanted to chop all the Quartermains into pieces right now!

Even so, he refrained, knowing very well that the priority was to rescue his sister first. He wasn’t going to allow her to sustain any further injuries.

Regardless, upon hearing Gerald’s words, Jessica simply nodded slightly. She believed in Gerald, and she knew that they were going to make it out of all this.

Unwilling to further watch the heart-warming scene between the two siblings, Henrick then demanded, “Look, I’ve brought your sister here, Gerald! Now release my son!”

“Humph! Impatient, aren’t we? Release my sister first if you want him back!” sneered Gerald as he glared at Henrick.

“You…! Listen here, your sister’s still in my grasp! Don’t you even dare consider playing any tricks, you hear?!” retorted Henrick as he angrily grabbed Jessica by her neck.

“You old b*stard! One wrong move on my sister and your son will be dead! If you think I’m just joking around, then try me!” roared Gerald as he instantly lifted Yesirn by his neck as well.

When Henrick saw that his son’s eyes were already rolling back on his reddened face, the master of the Quartermain family knew that his threats meant nothing to Gerald.

Rather reluctantly, Henrick then released Jessica’s neck before replying, “…Fine! Let’s exchange our hostages at the same time then!”

Hearing that, Gerald knew that he had to play along. Releasing Yesirn’s neck as well, both Gerald and Henrick began slowly walking toward each other, making sure to have a firm grasp on their hostages’ backs.

Once they were close enough, the two men released their grasps at the same time, allowing Yesirn and Jessica to begin walking toward the other party…

However, the second the two passed each other, Henrick made a dash toward Jessica! Since his palm was already charged with essential qi, it was obvious that Henrick had planned to do this from the very beginning!

However, Gerald had naturally read Henrick’s mind long before this exchange. With that in mind, Gerald was able to instantaneously respond by dragging Jessica over and launching his own palm attack!

What followed was an explosive sound that shook the entire Featherlight Pavilion!

With dust and debris flying all over the place, Gerald used that chance to successfully flee the pavilion together with his sister!

By the time the dust had settled, Henrick realized that he had been outwitted!

His anger was cut short when he heard his servants shouting, “Y-young master…!”

Turning around, Henrick watched as his servants quickly ran over to his son’s side… However, Yesirn… He was lying motionless atop a pool of his own blood!

Momentarily frozen in place, Henrick finally snapped out of it when one of his servants turned to look at him before crying out, “M-master…! Young master, he’s… He’s dead!”

Upon hearing that, Henrick felt as though he had just been fatally struck by lightning.

“Yesirn…!” shouted Henrick as he ran toward his son’s corpse.

Though blood was still flowing endlessly out of Yesirn’s gaping neck, it was evident that the boy was no longer among the living.

As to how that gash had got there, during the earlier moments of chaos, Gerald had ordered Jade Infused Blade—who had been within Gerald’s body this entire time—to momentarily reveal himself and slice Yesirn’s neck! Since nobody there knew about Jade Infused Blade, the deed managed to be done rather stealthily.

Regardless, the now deeply pained Henrick then howled in rage, “I’m tearing off all your skin once I get my hands on you, Gerald…! I’m breaking every single tendon of yours too, and once I’m done, I’ll drink every last drop of your blood…!”

Meanwhile, Gerald was already rushing out of the city with immense speed.

“They… Won’t pursue us, right…?” asked a worried Jessica as she continued clinging onto Gerald’s back.

“Even if they do, I’ll protect you, sister! There’s no need to worry!” reassured Gerald who had already thought about his next move.

Soon enough, both of them arrived at the mouth of the Underworld Valley…

Even from afar, Jessica had already noticed a graceful but nervous-looking woman sitting under a large tree near the mouth of the valley. The person in question was Nori!

After Jade Infused Blade got the Primocorose for Gerald, both of them had decided to momentarily part ways with Nori. Before heading off to Bario city, however, Gerald had told her to wait here for him since he still needed her help with something.

Regardless, upon seeing that Gerald had made a safe return, Nori instantly got to her feet before shouting, “Gerald…!”

Gerald himself wasted no time in handing his sister over to Nori.

“Nori, I still have to deal with those people so I’ll be leaving my sister in your care for the moment. Make sure to leave immediately! Also, take this sound talisman. Once I’m done dealing with them, I’ll contact you before meeting up again!” instructed Gerald as he took a talisman out from his pocket before handing it to Nori.

“Please be careful, alright, Gerald…?” muttered Jessica before her brother parted ways.

She knew how much trouble Gerald had gotten himself into just to save her. With that in mind, she was rather reluctant to see him put himself in danger again now that they had made it out in one piece. If anything terrible happened to him because of her, Jessica was well aware that she would remain guilty about that for the rest of her life…

In response, Gerald simply revealed an understanding smile before saying, “You don’t have to worry about me, sister!”

With that, the youth turned around and instantly left…

Not too far away, Henrick was leading several of his men in pursuit of Gerald. Since Henrick had already entered the Sage Realm, his speed was near unimaginable.

Regardless, when Henrick finally saw Gerald—who appeared to be silently standing in place, waiting for his arrival—the master of the Quartermain family found himself roaring, “You’re dying today if it’s the last thing I do, Gerald…!”
