Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 318

"Humph! Tie them all up while we wait for the boss's next order!" shouted one of the men.

Cassandra and the others were then dragged into the building before being tied to some chairs.

"They're all so beautiful! If the boss enjoys himself today, maybe we'll get to have some fun with them too!" A guard laughed with a cruel smirk on his face.

"That can wait. Let's make sure the boss receives a warm welcome first! You three remain upstairs to stand guard over them. Until the boss arrives, suppress your sexual urges. If he finds out about it, you'll definitely be castrated!"

The three chosen subordinates nodded respectfully as the rest of the men descended the stairs.

The women were extremely beautiful and, fearing that they might kiss them if they looked at them for too long, the three men decided it was best not to look at them at all. They squatted down by the door and began playing games on their phones.

"Psst... Hey, Naomi. Did you manage to get the call across earlier? How about you Felicity?" whispered Cassandra, her face as white as a sheet.

Felicity wept in silence as she shook her head. "Didn't manage to... My phone was snatched away before I even had the chance to press the call button... What should we do, Counselor? I'm an internet celebrity! This is no way to treat such a person!" cried Felicity as she burst into tears.

The corner of Yvonne's mouth was still bleeding from the slap earlier. She was terrified and she started weeping as well.

Regardless of how calm and cold a girl she was, anyone would be frightened half to death if they were to face a similar situation.

"Counselor... I'm not sure whether I managed to get the call across... But it seemed like it did. However, I only managed to shout for a brief moment..." Compared to the others, Naomi was still relatively calm though her breaths were heavy.

"Who? Who did you call?" In this life or death situation, the recipient of that call could be the miracle they needed to escape unscathed.

Though they were still university students, their minds were fickle and bore ample wits.

Earlier in the car, most of them had caught on that something was going very wrong. During the moment the guard had slapped Yvonne and while he was giving death glares toward Cassandra, Naomi and Felicity were hard at work, carefully trying to make calls without being caught.

Among the girls, Naomi had been the first to act. Long before the car had driven off the slope, Naomi was already aware enough about their situation to try making emergency calls.

The biggest help now, of course, would be from Flynn in this situation, even though Cassandra had tried several times to no avail.

"I... called Gerald..." Back then, the first number she saw was Gerald's and it was such a critical moment that her thumb moved faster than her mind.

"You called... Gerald?" Cassandra said in a disappointed voice.

"You called that good-for-nothing? What could he even come up with to save us, being the stupid person he is..."

Felicity's fears peaked and she felt cold sweat drip down her forehead.

"It's all over now... I... I don't want to die!" cried Yvonne.

"Shut up, b*itch! God, you're so noisy! Leo, go tape her mouth up! You can scream all you want later!" chuckled one of the men.

The guard that went by Leo smiled lustfully as he approached them.

While all this was happening, Gerald was still looking at his phone, dazed and confused.

He was in the boys' dormitory when it happened.

About three minutes ago, Naomi had given him a call. He was taking a bath then, and his phone had been ringing for a while.

As soon as he picked up the call, he heard Naomi shouting.

Her words were mostly vague, but he heard something about them being kidnapped before the call ended from her end. What on earth was happening?

He tried calling her back to no avail. He even tried to call Cassandra and the others but even their phones went straight to voicemail. '...I hope it's just them having too much fun together...' Thought Gerald to himself.

However, the cryptic call was still worrying. Knowing that they were all at Emperor Karaoke Bar, he decided to give Flynn a call. His call went straight to voicemail.

Scratching the back of his head, Gerald then tried calling Flynn's personal number. Thankfully, he was able to reach him soon after. "Still haven't retired for the day, Mr. Crawford?"

"Not yet, no. Why does your business number keep going to voicemail? Are you still at the Emperor Karaoke Bar?" asked Gerald.

"Don't even start, Mr. Crawford. I'm looking into it as well. Just forty minutes ago, my phone was being targeted. I received calls every two seconds and yes, I'm at the Emperor now. I'm still trying to find the brains behind all this!"

"I see. Well, Cassandra, Felicity, and a few others were having fun in the Emperor too. Could go over and see if they're still there?"

"Sure thing."

Without hanging up, Gerald continued to wait for three more minutes. "Mr. Crawford, they were apparently picked up by someone around twenty minutes ago. They've left," said Flynn when he finally spoke again.

"...Huh? Could you please have a look at the surveillance footage? Who on earth could have picked them up?"

Gerald could feel that something was going terribly wrong.

Flynn felt the same.

While he started with the Emperor's own surveillance footage, Flynn soon found himself going through the footage from the surveillance cameras littered all over Mayberry Commercial Street.

Flynn's voice began to quiver nervously. "...Mr. Crawford... It seems that they were picked up by a Rolls-Royce. The car moved at an accelerated pace and the last footage we have of it shows that it drove west of the city."

"...Oh no. Could this be a kidnapping attempt?" Gerald felt his anxiety grow by the second.

"Quick, call Zack and Michael. Tell them to meet up at the Emperor Karaoke Bar immediately. I'll meet you there too!"
