Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1602
“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

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.

“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.
