Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1368

“…Well, since sir and I have managed to return safely and you’ve even found such a good helper, isn’t it only right for us to host a reunion dinner…? What more, I’ve already been treating this sir like family from the moment he rescued me!” said Jasmine who was well aware that she had almost made a slip of the tongue.

Thankfully, her explanation seemed to work as Gerald laughed before replying, “Well, you’re not wrong there! He saved my life too, you know! Ever since I regained consciousness, I’ve been treating him like family as well! Well said! Let’s have a reunion dinner tonight! Now then, I’ll be cooking if nobody’s against it!”

“I’ll help!” shouted both Monica and Rosie—who had been standing quietly at the side—almost simultaneously. Upon realizing what had just happened, both of them instantly felt slightly awkward.

Monica had been so eager to help since she had been admiring Gerald for a while now. She respected both his strength and his strong character. Of course, his good looks played a part in that equation as well.

As for Rosie, though she had just gotten acquainted with Gerald not too long ago, she was exceedingly curious about him. After all, not only was he a top-tier rich heir, but he was also extremely mysterious.

What more, Gerald hadn’t made much effort to hide certain things from her—such as the snake cave—

which only further served to increase her curiosity. There were simply too many things that were too hard to even explain clearly!

Regardless, whenever a woman grew too curious about a man, it certainly wouldn’t take long before an ambiguous relationship started between them.

Watching as the two fumbled about, Peter—who had been looking at their reactions this entire time—

then turned to look at the clearly jealous Jasmine.

‘Gerald truly is my elder brother’s son… At the very least, he has the demeanor my brother had back then!’ Peter thought to himself as he smiled slightly bitterly.

With that, preparations for the reunion dinner began. Soon enough, the food was served, and though the atmosphere was harmonious throughout the meal, everyone seemed rather engrossed in their own thoughts.

It wasn’t long before midnight finally came, and Gerald found himself looking at Rosie before saying, “I’ll be frank and say that this is my first time using this tactic. In other words, I’m not sure whether it’ll even work or not. Regardless, while it may be relatively difficult for you in the upcoming two days, I assure you that the process won’t hurt one bit, Miss Slow!”

Nodding in response, Rosie then gracefully sat at the side before closing her eyes.

Gerald, on the other hand, sat cross-legged before instantly using Thunder Eruption—with the aid of the dragon blood jade pendant’s power—to attempt summoning the thought of the woman in white’s soul.

As all that was happening, a faint light began shining atop the crystal eternal coffin that was currently in the Gunter family’s secret room.

Following that, the light briefly flashed before the figure of a person slowly began materializing… and eventually, it turned into the woman in white.

Sitting atop the eternal coffin, there was a hint of anticipation in both her eyes.

“So, why did you decide to come out today? Could it be that you’ve grown so lonely that you just need to talk to someone?” asked a voice that was being emitted from a dark orb of light.

Soon after, the King of Judgment Portal materialized as well, and he revealed a cold smile as he stood before the eternal coffin.

“I’m only advising you one final time that you stop doing all these useless things, King of Judgment Portal. Please understand already that there are some people who you’ll never be able to lay a finger on! Fate can only be altered so much!” said the woman in white as she smiled bitterly while looking at him before shaking her head.

“You know, I hate the current expression you’re showing me the most. I’ll have you know that after tonight passes, the thought of my soul will finally be enough to materialize. Once that happens, I won’t have to worry about you running away anymore, even if I don’t have an active formation to seal you!”

replied the King of Judgment Portal gloomily.

“While you were born in a prestigious family back in Jaellatra, allow me to remind you that you’ve only managed to train your ghostly body by sapping the masculine aura of others. You’re now nothing more than a demon in my book, and in the end, all you’re truly doing is digging your own grave!” said the woman in white as she stared pitifully at him.

Just as the King of Judgment Portal was about to retort, his eyes widened as he watched her entire body suddenly begin glowing. As if that wasn’t already shocking enough, a door of light—that was linked to the outside world—simultaneously began shining on one of the room’s stone walls!

Watching as the glowing woman in white quickly began merging with the light from the wall, the flabbergasted King of Judgment Portal instantly muttered, “W-what…? How are you just ignoring my formation…?!”

Turning to look at him, the woman simply replied, “I already told you that this was going to be the final time I advised you. With that said, I hope you’ll remember what I said and refrain from doing any more bad deeds. Again, if you continue going down this path, you’ll only be digging your grave even deeper!”

As soon as her sentence ended, she immediately began emitting even more light!

Though the King of Judgment Portal attempted to stop her from escaping, he quickly realized that he wasn’t even able to get close to the light!

“What kind of power even is this…?!” shouted the bewildered man, his expression extremely hideous.

With one final strong flash, the woman in white’s body was fully enveloped in light. Completely ignoring the King of Judgment Portal’s formations, she quickly disappeared together with the light…
