Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1262
Jace quickly attempted to persuade the others to calm down before things escalated too quickly.

To be quite honest, even he had been surprised to hear Gerald say that someone had drained the babies of their oxyblood. It was a statement he hadn’t heard of before.

Even so, he had witnessed Gerald’s skills and abilities before, so Jace trusted that Gerald knew what he was doing.

“Hah! See, Dr. Mabb? I already told you that his feat earlier was just a coincidence! He’s not really capable at all! Being so young, what would he know? You’d think he was here to act in some movie after hearing his explanation!” muttered Walbridge unhappily.

Though he hadn’t said that in a particularly loud voice, everyone in the conference room could hear what he had just said.

It was obvious that Walbridge was jealous of Gerald. After all, he had seen the way Breanna—his long-time crush who was also his junior—looked at Gerald earlier. That was certainly the last straw for him!

Infuriated by him, Walbridge had had the constant urge to humiliate Gerald in public.

Upon hearing what his apprentice had to say, Jace’s expression instantly turned gloomy as he turned to look at Walbridge before saying, “Quiet, Walbridge! I believe there must be a reason for Mr. Crawford to have said all that! Let’s just see what else Mr. Crawford has to say first! What if his deduction is actually correct?”

Gerald himself now had a sour expression on his face. Anyone would feel dissatisfied after being criticized and humiliated in such a way.

“There are still many things all of you do not know about the world!” replied Gerald coldly.

“…If I may, is there a cure for all this, Mr. Crawford…?” asked Jace, choosing to believe in Gerald.

“There is. Acupuncture and medication can be used to condition their bodies. Even so, we have to act quickly. Once the babies’ organs completely fail, they won’t be able to be saved any longer!”

“Do you have any idea how hasty you’re being? You can’t just treat the lives of over a hundred children like jokes, Dr. Mabb! He’s just some young boy who barely has any experience! What would he know in this situation?!” shouted another doctor in rage.

“Do you have any better ideas, then?” asked Jace coldly in return.

“While I don’t, we still can’t take this situation so lightly! Also, giving medication to new-borns? What would happen if their condition worsens after taking the medication? You, of all people, should know that these babies can’t take much more! With that in mind, we shouldn’t be playing around with their health until we’re entirely sure we can help them!” reasoned another person who felt that allowing Gerald to treat the new-borns was no different from giving him permission to toy around with their health.

Zane himself was now looking at Gerald, wondering whether to trust in him or not. Though Gerald’s explanation sounded dubious at best, there was just something about the determination and clarity in Gerald’s eyes that gave others a strong sense of conviction.
