Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2042
After a slight pause, Will eventually brought himself to say, “…Do… you really want to meet him that much, sir…?”
“To kill him, yes. I’ve told you time and again that you’re the only heir of the Crawford family, haven’t I? If you still
refuse to believe that, then you can just leave!” retorted Daryl as a frown formed on his face.
“I-I apologize for doubting you! I believe you! I truly do…!” replied Will, quivering in fear.
“If you do, then why did you secretly plan that assassination that night?” replied Daryl in a hoarse voice as he
stubbed his cigarette out before loudly tapping his walking stick against the floor.
“T-that…” muttered Will, momentarily at a loss at what to say.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWill, for one, had always thought that his plans were flawless. He never imagined that despite all his efforts to hide
it from Daryl, that old man still managed to find out…!
“l say it right now that you nearly ruined all my plans!” scowled Daryl with a snort. “I-I know what I did was wrong
now, sir…!” replied Will as he lowered his head.
In the end, Will was merely an adopted child, and his ultimate fear was having Daryl suddenly give up on him. It
definitely explained why he generally didn’t dare to disobey Daryl’s orders. Still, if Daryl truly did decide to drop his
protection and care for Will, then not only would Will lose his high position in Yearning Island, but there was a high
chance that he would be driven away as well!
Knowing that Will had been scared straight, Daryl then said in a frigid tone, “This had better be the last time… If I
ever find out that you disobeyed me again, you can just pack up and leave Yearning Island for good!”
Following that, Will left the room without another word, leaving Will frozen on the spot for quite some time.
Eventually, a cold breeze blew into the room, snapping Will out of it. Heaving a heavy sigh, Will then flopped onto a
chair…
Though Daryl’s words were law, Will’s resolve to kill Gerald was even greater than his fear of abandonment. The
truth was, he simply couldn’t bring himself to believe that Daryl wanted Gerald dead. With that in mind, Will knew
that until he had personally killed Gerald, his position as the Crawford family’s heir would remain uncertain…
Gnashing his teeth as he grabbed a glass of water, Will then growled, “Gerald…! I’ll kill you if it’s the last thing I
do…!”
Seconds later, the glass shattered from his immense grip, sending glass shards falling all over the place…
Moving back to Gerald, his body had returned to peak condition after a night’s rest in Japan. After breakfast, the
three of them sat in their room to begin discussing things…

“Even after asking around last night, I wasn’t able to get any news about the Seadom tribe. However, it’s a fair
assumption that this family has remained very well hidden in the real world’s Japan. After all, they’ve yet to be
discovered by others,” said Master Ghost.
“I suppose so. There goes the hope of finding them in a day or two. I guess we’ll only be able to find the tribe after
some time. We can’t get too hasty either or we may end up scaring them away when we actually find them…”
replied Gerald—who didn’t find their current situation to be overly disappointing—with a nod.
“Um… What are you talking about…?” muttered Aiden who was completely at a loss…
“Essentially, the Seadom tribe is a tribe that’s existed for thousands of years… We’re looking for them since
according to rumors, they know a way of locating and entering Yearning Island. With that in mind, if the rumors are
true and we do manage to find them, we can finally have a head start above Daryl,” explained Gerald, knowing that
Aiden no longer had to focus on protecting Lindsay.
