The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1724 âHeh!â says the speaker. However, of course! Still, Master Hughes, you have incredible foresightâ¦
Everything went exactly as you predicted!â
âHah!â says the speaker. Tiger was the one who first betrayed me, so he can only blame himself for my cruelty! Old Hughes sneered as he smiled smugly, his eyes filled with determination.
âIâll definitely take over the Hulkeroic Union by the end of all this!â sneered Old Hughes as he sneered as he smiled smugly, his eyes filled with determination.
âYou bet! What about Gerald and the others, by the way? Is it necessary for me to finish them?â
enquired the enigmatic figure.
âLeave them be for now,â Old Hughes said, raising his palm.
Gerald and his ilk, after all, are still useful to us. Besides, now that he has the Fishgut Sword, we should at least wait for him to kill Tiger for us before doing anything else.â
With a respectful nod, the shadowy figure replied, âAs you wish, Master Hughes!â
Gerald had no idea that the shadowy figure and Old Hughes were working togetherâ¦
Regardless, Gerald and Juno were quick to arrive at the Zorn familyâs home. The sun was already high in the sky at that pointâ¦
Gerald immediately called out for his friends when he walked into Noriâs house.
Despite the fact that all four of them had been sleeping in the same roomâin sitting positionsâat the time, hearing Geraldâs voice jolted them awake and they dashed toward him.
Nori and Ray were so ecstatic when they saw him that they ran over to him right away. Before Gerald could react, the two were already tightly hugging him!
âYou⦠Gerald, you scared the living daylights out of meâ¦! Nori exclaimed, âI thought I wouldnât be able to see you againâ¦!â as she excitedly patted Gerald on the back.
âYou bet! Brother Gerald, we were so worried about you! I⦠Iâm just glad youâre okayâ¦!â Ray continued, his entire body trembling with relief.
Gerald responded, laughing as he patted both of their shoulders for comfort, âThere, there⦠Iâm all right now! Still, now that Iâve survived this disaster, Iâm sure Iâll be showered with blessings!â
Zelig couldnât help but smile as he called out, âBrother Geraldâ¦!â Zelig, who had been standing with Cyril from afar for some time, couldnât help but smile as he called out, âBrother Geraldâ¦!â
Gerald grabbed Nori and Ray from him and walked over to Zelig after hearing thatâ¦
Only to be met by Nori, who dashed forward and stood right in front of him, staring intently into his eyesâ¦
Gerald was frozen in place for a moment, unsure of what Nori was planning to do, so he asked, ââ¦Isâ¦
something the matter?â
Rather than responding verbally, Nori simply grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him close to her face⦠kissing him on the lips!
Gerald, understandably, was completely taken aback. Nori, to think sheâd be so proactive!
Even the others were taken aback, but they soon burst out laughing like schoolchildren.
Whatever the case may have been, Juno could finally relax now that Gerald was back. Everything would be fine as long as Gerald remained safeâ¦
ââ¦Humph!â So youâve figured out how to get back, havenât you? Nori grumbled as she glared at Gerald, âAnd here I thought you died somewhere alone!â
Gerald simply smiled back at her, scratching the back of his head awkwardly before replying, ââ¦Wellâ¦
I guess Iâm just one of the lucky ones!â
