Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2029
Following that, the disciples of the Sacrasolis Palace walked out in pairs to begin guarding the fringes of the island.
After yesterday’s events, Gerald had a feeling that Daryl was no longer simply testing him. From what Gerald could
guess, more Crawford family members were definitely on their way to look for trouble…
While Gerald wasn’t afraid of them, he was worried that they would do bad things to the people around him, just
like how Lindsay was captured by Terenzio back then. Gerald, for one, didn’t need something like that happening
again…
At that moment, Aiden couldn’t help but ask, “What exactly is the main Crawford family up to…? If they really
wanted to welcome you as Daryl’s grandson, then they should’ve just invited you back! On the contrary, if they
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwanted you gone, they could’ve just kicked you out! Why even go through the tedious process of testing your
strength…?”
“Like I know…” replied Gerald as he shook his head with a wry smile.
While he didn’t know what Daryl was thinking, he knew better than to go against that old man’s words. After all, he
didn’t want to put his parents and sister in unnecessary danger. “Well, we can’t just remain here forever…”
grumbled Aiden as he stretched.
“Let’s just wait and see what happens first. Besides, the more men he sends over, the higher our chances of
learning more about the situation on Yearning Island. We’ll make our move once we know enough!” replied Gerald
in a helpless tone.
“Honestly, you should be more worried about protecting Miss Lawrence. She’s your soulmate, is she not?
Remember, had Gerald not stepped in in time, Miss Lawrence would most probably be dead by now,” said Master
Ghost who had gotten much more familiar with Aiden. Now that they knew each other better, they no longer
shared awkward silences, and even joked around at times.
Regardless, upon hearing that, Aiden immediately yelled, “S-she’s just my employer…!”
As if he’d choose to have such a brutal person as his girlfriend! If she was the last woman on the planet, he’d very
much prefer staying single and living comfortably!
“Alright, quit it, you two… Now’s not the time for this. Either way, you should both get some rest while you can.
After all, we don’t know when the Crawfords will strike again,” replied Gerald as he furrowed his brows slightly.
“Not like you’re going to let me fight anyway,” said Aiden.
“He has a point. While he may need to in order to protect Miss Lawrence, I, for one, lack fighting skills of any sort,
so I don’t really need the rest. Regardless, I did learn something new about the sea map,” added Master Ghost.
“Oh? What did you find out?” asked Gerald quickly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Well, the thing is, the sea map should clearly state where Yearning Island is. However, the island simply isn’t there.
Why do you think that’s so?” replied Master Ghost as he shut the doors tightly.
“No idea,” said Gerald while shaking his head.
‘Well, after thinking about it for the past few days, a thought suddenly came to me today. Since the sea map points
in this direction in general, could it be that we’re already in the Yearning Island area?” suggested Master Ghost as
he took the sea map out and pointed at their island.
“What? You’re saying we’re already on Yearning Island?” replied Gerald, his eyes fully widened.
“As I said, the Yearning Island area. You see, I have a feeling that the name ‘Yearning Island’ isn’t designated to a
singular island, but instead to all the islands within this area!” said Master Ghost as he drew a circle around the
islands on the map.
“You’re… saying that Yearning Island is the name for this clump of islands…?” muttered Gerald with a frown. He
had never thought of it this way…
