Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 612
Mr. Leach’s tone was icy as he said that.
“Fair, right, and proper you say? As if! From what we’ve found, your subordinates had been lying in wait in their
cars for at least two hours before the event even took place! Are you saying that they were able to foresee
tonight’s incident that early on?”
“While the surveillance system in the hotel was conveniently out of order today, they’re still working just fine in
other places! Let’s just cut to the chase, Mr. Leach. I’m sure you know a lot more about today’s incident than me,
am I right?” interrogated Gerald.
This was the first time Gerald had ever been framed.
His sister had previously told him that doing business would be both a test, and a chance for him to gain
experience. Gerald hadn’t felt the weight of her words before this, but he realized just how true her statement was

Despite hearing Gerald’s words, Mr. Leach refused to talk and simply averted his gaze.
To him, regardless of how powerful Gerald was, it was only a matter of fame. Sure, Gerald and his sister were
famous, but the Longs from Yanken were different. They were an entire family.
Mr. Leach would much rather offend Mr. Crawford alone rather than Mr. Long and the rest of his family.
“Since you’re remaining quiet, I’m certain now that you’ve been trying to deliberately ruin me. It seems like I don’t
need to play the nice guy anymore!” said Gerald.
“Humph. I know what you’re trying to do. I anticipated that something like this would happen so I’ve already
informed my subordinates to expose the entire incident if I don’t return in an hour. While they’re at it, they’ll make
a police report as well!” replied Mr. Leach.
“Oh, is that so? Mr. Leach you’re overthinking it. I only called you over to ask you a few questions. I’ve no intention
of doing anything to you. You may leave now…” said Gerald with a faint smile.
After he said that, Mr. Leach was allowed to leave. Confused, he slowly got up to head for the exit but then he saw
Gerald taking his phone out.
Gerald then began playing a video on his phone.
“Daddy! H-help! Save me!” screamed a girl’s voice in fear through Gerald’s phone.
When Mr. Leach heard her voice, he immediately rushed back in before anxiously saying, “What are you doing? Is
that my daughter’s voice?”
“Humph! You don’t have to worry about her. Your daughter’s now in your village hometown. You know, our
company’s film and television department have gone there to shoot a video about safety education. It was only
natural for us to invite your daughter for the shooting since she’s so beautiful! Her role is of a young girl who’s been
kidnapped and if her father isn’t able to meet a compromise with the kidnappers, she’ll be killed!” said Zack with a
smile before taking the phone from Gerald’s hand and showing it to Mr. Leach.
When he watched the video, he found that what Zack had said was indeed true.
Mr. Leach gulped slightly at that moment. Their implicit message to him was clear as day.
Mr. Long had indeed arranged for the entire incident to happen, just to slander Mr. Crawford. Mr. Leach knew full
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwell that he was the one who was wrong here.
Even if someone wanted to take revenge on Mr. Leach, he knew he couldn’t say anything.
However, his daughter was safe now and she was even having fun with Mr. Crawford’s staff. Mr. Crawford had given
him a great deal of respect and he couldn’t just keep his act up.
“…Mr. Crawford, when they claimed that you r*ped that girl at first, I certainly didn’t believe that. I felt like there
was some kind of misunderstanding, and I now know that it’s a terribly, terribly huge misunderstanding!” said Mr.
Leach, his face pale.
“You’re not the one at fault here, Mr. Leach. Also, we aren’t scummy enough to freely blackmail others like Yunus.
Tell us how we should resolve this. Understand that if you do deliberately try to ruin me, I’ll definitely not be willing
and happy about it!” said Gerald.
“Alright, I’ll tell all of you the truth now. Yunus told us to modify the photographs in order to slander you. His goal is
to get the Owens to become your enemies! I, for one, believe that you would never do such a dirty and wicked
thing, Mr. Crawford!” explained Mr. Leach, his entire body covered in cold sweat.
Now that Mr. Leach had told them the truth, Gerald looked toward Zack and nodded slightly. Zack then showed Mr.
Leach another video.
As he watched the video, his eyes widened in disbelief. Mr. Leach was soon so angry that his entire face turned
pale.
