Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1545
âWho?â asked Gerald.
ââ¦It was Daryl himself. In a single night, he completely exterminated the Crawfordsâwho had both birthed and raised himâwith some tactic thatâs currently unknown⦠Since then, heâs laid low on Yearning Island while establishing the other Crawford family. Itâs worth mentioning that it only took the other Crawfords a few decades to prosper. In fact, it isnât even a stretch to say that the other Crawford familyâs strength is several times higher than what the previous Crawfords could ever achieve!â
âRegardless, Daryl began executing another plan sometime later, and the plan was called the Plan of Insights. Heâs apparently been making preparations for that plan for the longest time, and it appears that youâre closely involved with the planâs success. He also seems to be holding onto some secret that Iâve yet to uncoverâ¦â explained Master Ghost.
ââ¦I see. Just to clarify, you said that many of these incidents are closely related to my grandpa, no?â
asked Gerald, still slightly in disbelief.
âIndeed. Also, Daryl apparently has rather close connections with Jaellatra as well! Iâm assuming that this is part of his Plan of Insights!â replied Master Ghost.
âJaellatra? The legendary place located in the center of the earth?â asked Yeshua, already feeling enlightened just from listening to the conversation.
As Master Ghost nodded at Yeshua, Geraldâwho now had a glint of determination in his eyesâsaid, ââ¦I donât care what this Plan of Insights is, nor do I care who Iâm facing. The only important thing to me now is that I wonât allow that person to do any more harm! With that said, since you now know where Yearning Island is, I propose we set off for that island today. Honestly, after recently hearing so much about the other Crawfords, I find myself wanting to see whatâs so different about them compared to my own family!â
âSounds like a fine idea, Mr. Crawford. You know, the Dragon Squad owns a special fleet of shipsâ¦
What Iâm suggesting is that if youâd like, Iâd be happy to contribute my share of power as thanks for your counseling throughout these few days!â suggested Yeshua quickly.
After witnessing Geraldâs strength and training, Yeshua simply had a gut feeling that if he could get on good terms with this powerful person, both the Dragon Squad and the Lock familyâs future would surely be bright. With that in mind, Yeshua wasnât about to miss an opportunity to help Gerald.
Upon hearing Yeshuaâs kind gesture, Gerald agreed with the idea. After all, he would now have a way to head to the island together with his exceptional men from the Sacrasolis Palace. With that, more people would be able to look out for each other.
Fast forward to the next morning, the fleet of ten large passenger shipsâthat Yeshua had arranged for Geraldâbegan departing for the southwest ocean area in Yanam.
Standing on the deck of one of the ships, Gerald found himself staring into the vast ocean. The longer he stared, the more melancholic Gerald felt until eventually, he found himself muttering, âItâs been four years since weâve last met, Mila⦠Four whole years⦠Though many things remained pretty much the same, the people around me have undergone vast changes⦠I, too, am no longer who I used to beâ¦
Mila⦠How are you doingâ¦? Are you even still alive anymoreâ¦?â
While finding Mila had been a constant worry for him, he currently had greater concerns for his family who had been captured by the other Crawfords. He truly wished that they hadnât suffered too much while awaiting his rescue missionâ¦
Truth be told, given the choice, Gerald would very much prefer to endure through all this pain on his ownâ¦
Then there was the fact that he would very likely have to face his grandfatherâwhom he greatly respectedâin the near future.
All this simply made Geraldâs mood extremely complicated.
As he continued to be vexed out of his mind, a feminine voice as sweet as an orioleâs suddenly said, âGood day, sir. Are you part of this passenger shipâs team?â
Turning around, Gerald was greeted by the sight of two women standing behind him.
The one who had spoken was wearing sports attire, and her hair was in a ponytail. As for her appearance, it was just as sweet and lovely as her voice was. Looking to be around the age of twenty-
three, Gerald also sensed the temperament of a rich young lady within herâ¦
