The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2283
âThere is no need to thank me. I am Lindsayâs uncle. You were only ordered to protect her. Talking about gratitude, I should be the one to thank you. I thank you for being so attentive. Even after your mission ended, youâre still very much concerned about Lindsayâs safety.â
Lucian grabbed Aidenâs hands. He had not seen such a sentimental young man for a long time.
Although he was acquainted with some outstanding people in this industry, those were merely profit oriented men who were good at flattering people.
âUncle Grubb, youâd better contact them quickly. I honestly feel that this was done by the war department.â Aiden continued.
âOkay, Iâll call those friends and ask them to find out what is going on in the war department. Iâll let you know if I find anything.â
âHowever, you must stay in the manor. Donât rush out on a whim. With your strength alone, even if Lindsay was truly locked up there, before you can even find her, youâll be caught.â Lucian was still a little worried, so he continued to advise Aiden.
âDonât worry, Uncle Grubb. I will calm down.â Aiden nodded in agreement. âThen, Iâll go back first. Feel free to call me if you need anything.â
âGo ahead.â Lucian waved his hand.
Right after Aiden had left, Lucian called his friends in the war department. Instead of mentioning Lindsay, he pumped his friends for information about the war department under the pretense of chatting and catching up.
In the cave.
After a few hours of searching, the old man finally found the records about the Northbay Sea. He patted it to get the dust off and handed it to Gerald.
âThis is the ancient book with records about the Northbay Sea. There should be information about that so and-so island. If it is not even in this book, you can only go and search for the things left behind by that family. As for where it is, I truly donât know.â The old man pounded his back and lay on the stone bed to rest.
âThank you, Senior.â Gerald nodded in gratitude.
Ignoring the dust on it, after blowing it once, he opened the book.
It could be seen that the papers of the whole book had turned yellowish, and there were even some tears. In the book, there really were records about the Northbay Sea. However, as Gerald flipped through it, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
Upon comparing it to the sea map, Gerald realized that the island he, Aiden, and Master Ghost had gone to was called Gong Island.
Even after reading it twice, there was still nothing about Yearning Island.
âItâs not there?â The old man leaned sideways. Seeing Geraldâs face, he could already make a guess.
âYes.â Gerald sighed and shook his head as he put the ancient book back onto the bookshelf.
âThis Yearning Island is indeed well hidden. I guess it should not be an ordinary island. Are you sure that whatever family left behind really has a way to find this island?â The old man leaned on his arm, looked at Gerald, and asked.
âI donât know, but right now, there is no better way other than this.â Gerald shook his head once again.
