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.
