Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1095

“What’s wrong, beauty? Don’t you have any money with you?” said an idler as he and a few others began walking toward her.

The moment one of them attempted to touch Giya’s chin, she immediately dodged. Seeing that, the other idlers immediately grabbed Giya’s arms, intent on harassing her.

Realizing that struggling wasn’t getting her anywhere, Giya found a chance to bite down hard on one of the idler’s fingers!

A shout of pain was heard as the idler who was bitten held on to his badly injured finger.

Seeing that, none of the others dared to make any other moves on her. This was because all of them saw the murderous intent in her eyes.

However, due to her prior exhaustion and the sudden adrenaline rush, Giya was now feeling extremely dizzy. As a result, she soon ended up toppling to the ground, barely conscious.

Understanding that Giya barely had any energy left in her to even get up, the idlers turned around to face another person who was now walking toward them. One of them then complained, “Isn’t this a bit too cruel, boss? You didn’t warn us that this woman was going to be this vicious! My finger almost got broken, you know?”

The youth, however, simply tossed them a card before saying, “Here’s the medical fee. The password is today’s date!”

“H-holy sh*t! Thanks, boss!” shouted all of the idlers simultaneously in delight.

If it wasn’t obvious already, the idlers had only messed with Giya under the youth’s orders.

Recognizing that voice anywhere, Giya slowly lifted her head to see if it truly was him. As she had guessed, the youth in question was, of course, Gerald!

“I-I knew you wouldn’t abandon me…!” cried out Giya as she burst into tears.

While Gerald had easily outpaced her earlier, once he was sure that Giya had lost sight of him, he kept a close eye on her from there on out, worrying that something might happen to her before she got back to the hotel.

Unexpectedly, Giya had chased after him the entire day.

He had honestly thought that Giya would eventually give up once she could no longer see him. Of course, that didn’t happen. As a result, he had hired those idlers earlier to scare her back into town.

‘This girl…’ Gerald thought to himself as he sighed internally.

Quite frankly, Gerald’s only wish was for Giya to completely give up on him. She deserved to live a normal life without the pain of longing for him, which was why he was trying so desperately to end things right now rather than prolong her agony.

However, seeing how much Giya had suffered earlier—just to get a chance to meet him again—made him feel sorry for her.

Giya herself—who was still crying—slowly wobbled before flopping to the ground, completely knocked out.

Guilt-ridden, Gerald immediately ran over to her while shouting, “Giya!”

The moment he lifted her up, however, Gerald immediately sensed that something was amiss.

“…Hmm? You’re… You were this ill this entire time?”

While he had initially thought that she was merely bluffing back when she fell to the floor at the hotel, after checking her pulse, he now realized how terribly ill she was. With this realization, Gerald then quickly brought her elsewhere.

When Giya finally awoke again, she was immediately greeted by the droning of a helicopter. Her body felt suspended though it was much more relaxed now compared to earlier when the pain had been so excruciating that she felt for sure that she was going to die.

Looking around, she realized that she was lying on a lounge seat, and her body was covered with clothes. The moment she saw Gerald sitting beside her, however, her eyes immediately widened as she shouted, “G-Gerald?! A-am I dreaming now…?”

“You foolish girl! Did you know how seriously ill you were? If you hadn’t bumped into me, your life would be in danger by now!” replied Gerald with a slight frown.

“So you finally admit that you’re Gerald! Why did you have to lie to me? Were you really that reluctant to meet me? Just so you know, I previously had thoughts that if I still couldn’t find you no matter what, then I’d rather die!” said Giya as she ignored Gerald’s reply, her eyes now bloodshot and teary.

The Gerald sitting beside her now was so much more mature compared to the one she once knew a year and a half ago.

There was a lot that Giya wanted to learn about, and that urge stemmed from the need to always have a sense of security when she was by Gerald’s side.

“Where are we headed to…?” asked Giya.

“We’re returning to the Crawford manor in Northbay. I’ll have a few special doctors look after you once we’re there,” replied Gerald.

Quite honestly, Gerald was currently finding it difficult to look Giya in the eye. After all, it would be a lie for him to claim that he felt nothing for that woman now.

Whatever the case was, he truly wished her well.

“…So… Where have you been in the past year and a half…?”
