Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1999

To Yalinda, as long as Gerald was willing to be her master, any conditions he stated would be fair. After all, she had never met a more powerful person than he was in Shontell. With his help, she would definitely stand a better chance in achieving her true goal…

And that goal was to participate in the competition between cultivators! With his tutoring, she would most definitely stand a better chance of winning in the competition…

Whatever the case was, Gerald then declared, “First of all, you can’t tell others that I’m your master!

Secondly, you can’t have another master other than me! Can you do those?”

“Definitely!” replied Yalinda without a second thought.

“Very well, then! From today onward, you’ll be my disciple!” said Gerald with a satisfied nod.

Gerald, for one, understood that Yalinda wasn’t someone minor in Shontell. Aside from the fact that she had the Juans Delivery House on her side, Captain Juans was also her father. Now that he was her master—which would most definitely improve his relationship with her and her father—, his position in the Autremonde Realm would surely become more secure…

Fast forward to noon, Gerald could be seen resting alone in the garden when Yale—who appeared to be holding onto a piece of paper—suddenly came running toward him while yelling, “B-brother Gerald…!” Raising a slight brow, Gerald was prompted to ask, “What’s wrong, Yale? Why so anxious?”

Handing the paper to Gerald, Yale then explained, “J-just look at this pamphlet I received! It’s about a competition between cultivators that’s going to be held here soon, and Miss Juans’s name is on it!”

Scrolling through the list of participants on the pamphlet, Gerald soon realized that Yale was right.

Putting two and two together, Gerald finally understood why Yalinda wanted him to be her master so much. As it turned out, she was probably thinking of learning a few new martial arts skills from him to secure the win in the competition!

It was at that moment when Yalinda came walking into the garden…

Upon seeing her, Gerald hid the pamphlet behind him and looked at her as he asked, “Yalinda… Are you hiding anything from me?”

Though she was momentarily stunned to hear that, she quickly smiled as she replied, “Nothing at all, master!”

Seeing that she had no intention of fessing up, Gerald then presented the pamphlet to her before saying, “Then care to explain this? Since your name is already on this pamphlet, I’m assuming you became my disciple to learn a few moves before the competition?”

Surprised that Gerald had managed to get his hands on the pamphlet, Yalinda lowered her head before awkwardly replying, “That… Where… did you get that, master…?”

“I gave it to him! They were making an announcement about the competition a bit earlier, and I just so happened to be there! After receiving a pamphlet and seeing your name there, I rushed back to tell brother Gerald about it! Regardless, why didn’t you tell us you were participating in this? Brother Gerald and I would surely have come along to watch!” explained Yale.

Hearing that, Yalinda couldn’t help but glare furiously at Yale. After all, she was sure that she had done a pretty good job concealing that fact from Gerald. To think that Yale would find out instead and even show the pamphlet to her master…!
