“You don't have to look far, Mr Lyle! Because that man is among us! He's the impersonator!” xyon said as he pointed at Gerald.
Before Chairman Lyle even had a chance to turn to look, Abner and his girlfriend quickly ran—clearly intended to show off—when they added, “True, Chairman Lyle! You know he tried to trick everyone into believing that the real Mr Crawford had invited Cundrie to Mountain Top Villa before! I assure you that everyone here can testify to my statement!
"What a weirdo!" raung Chairman Lyle as he immediately turned to look where Xyon was pointing.
Holding his breath, everyone was ready to see Chairman Lyle faint, however, they were instead greeted by the shocking sight of him trembling on the spot!
He's not the only one either. All the other Crawford bodyguards were as astonished as Mr. Lyle's.
“I-This is not his fault! I'm the one who told him to disguise himself as Mr. Crawford! If anyone needs to be punished, it's me! He just followed my orders!” shouted Cundrie while gritting his teeth.
Hearing that, Mrs's anxiety. Smith's peaking. They blame someone else! Why would his foolish daughter step up to be blamed ?!
“Are you crazy, Cundrie? Why are you even talking to this ugly frog ?! ” ask Mrs. Smith, his unease was evident in his tone of voice.
“I haven't! I'm just telling the truth! Since I was the one who told him to do all that, then I should be in charge!” answer Cundri.
Before Mrs. Smith retorted, suddenly hearing Mr. Lyle shouted with difficulty, “M... Mister Crawford..!”.
Turning to look at him, everyone was shocked to see him filled with tears as the middle-aged man trembled violently.
After which, the other bodyguards bowed deeply before shouting in unison, “Master. Crawford! We stand before you with great respect!”
The shout itself was so loud that it almost felt like the entire structure was swaying for a moment there, leaving everyone completely flabbergasted.
While Snyder's father and son found themselves widening their eyes, the father and son of the Gross— family who had just laughed cunningly a few seconds ago—on the other hand, found themselves unable to even close their jaws due to their unbelief. In fact, they gap so wide that one could stuff an egg into them without any problem.
'...Signore... Crawford...? We... We must have misheard... right?'
When the atmosphere became stiff, Gerald simply replied, “It has been quite a while since the last time we met, Zack!”
He really did not expect Zack to be the special guest they invited.
With that in mind, not long after Gerald reunited with his family, he had given Zack a lot of power and authority without the slightest hesitation. However, as he was still busy dealing with the Moldell family back then and he barely dealt with business matters, neither Gerald nor Zack found any reason for them to meet to this day.
“To be right, Mr Crawford! You have no idea how happy I am to finally meet you again!” zack replied with a big smile.
Cundrie, Riley, and Mr. Smith was now in a daze, unable to take it for granted that the person they had previously referred to as a beggar was actually Mr. The famous crawford!
“A-what... Are you really the real Mr. Crawford..?” asked Cundrie while gulping.
Turning to look at it, Gerald then smiled before nodding slightly and answering, “Ya, which is why my initial assignment for the invitation card was a hundred percent real. Once again, if you're free, I hope you come to Mountain Top Villa in Mayberry for fun! The view up there isn't bad, you know?”
Even before Cundrie could reply, Noel immediately knelt down and said, “I... I'm sorry for not being such an insightful person, Mr Crawford! Thinking I failed to recognize who you are, even after repeatedly asking you before. I hope you will forgive me!”.
Being a smart man, Noel naturally knew that apologizing was his best course of action right now. While Dirty's father and son naturally thought the same thing, they didn't even know how to start apologizing after everything they did to him!
'It... Is over... The Gross family was completely destroyed this time...!' Xyon thought inwardly as he felt the familiar moisture in his pants again.
“By the way, Zack, the family here is so evil! Get rid of them for me by making them bankrupt as soon as possible! Let them have a debt of over one hundred and fifty million dollars! With your current influence, I'm sure it won't be too difficult for you!” gerald said as he turned to look at Abner and the others with a cold smile.
"Oh? With pleasure!” zack replied while returning a cold smile.
Afterwards, Zack then turned to look at his subordinates before ordering, “Come out and investigate any business partners the Gross family had. Your job is to break their relationship with Gross! If there are business partners who do not want to do it, just make them bankrupt too! ”
"Soon, Mr. Lyle!" the bodyguards shouted as they hurriedly ran off to carry out their new duties.
So this is the strength of the Crawford family!
After seeing how respectfully Zack treated Gerald, no one dared to doubt the authenticity of Gerald's true identity.
Everyone found themselves holding their breath, as Gerald turned to look at the Gross family before saying, “You enjoyed building your happiness on top of the misfortunes of others, right? Well, I'm glad to tell you that the same applies to me as well! To be honest I am very happy to see how much suffering you are currently experiencing!”
