The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2334
Despite his status, Walter looked less like a majestic family head and more like a father worried for his daughterâs life.
Regardless, upon hearing that, Third elder immediately bowed slightly before saying, âIndeed. His name is Gerald Crawford, and heâs still on the island. Yaacob is keeping an eye on him just in case he tries to leaveâ¦â
âWhat of his familyâs background?â asked Walter.
âHe appears to be a solitary cultivator. Strangely enough, Iâve yet to find out anything about his familyâs background,â muttered Third elder, seemingly unconvinced with his own results.
âAre you absolutely sure? You know how impossible that sounds, right?â replied Walter with a sigh.
ââ¦Well⦠Young mistress was the first to sense his Herculean Primordial Spirit⦠Even I was able to sense it when the boy for some odd reason attempted to enter Mount Nimbus last nightâ¦â explained Third elder as he shook his head.
âCome now, how could a solitary cultivator be the one to possess the Herculean Primordial Spirit! Have you scanned his power thoroughly enough to be absolutely sure that he owns it?â replied Walter with a wry laugh.
âWeâre definitely planning to, though maybe that boy really is that luckyâ¦?â said Third elder with a nod.
âWhatever the case is, bring him to me so that I can check for myself! The sooner we cure the cold poison in Miaâs body, the better!â replied Walter as he waved his hand, clearly only caring about his daughterâs recovery.
âAbout that⦠Young mistress has disallowed us from doing soâ¦â said Third elder in an embarrassed tone.
âWhat..? What is that girl even thinking?â grumbled Walter.
âItâs best if you meet her yourselfâ¦â muttered Third elder in a slightly hesitantly.
âWhere is sheâ¦â asked Walter with a sigh.
âSheâs on the islandâ¦â replied Third elder.
âBring her to me, and tell her to have an answer prepared for her reasoning. Seriously⦠Iâve searched for over ten years for the Herculean Primordial Spirit and now that itâs finally appeared, she says she doesnât want to meet the boy? Does she really want to die in a yearâ¦?â grumbled Walter as he left the scene.
Third elder himself gave no reply, and simply followed Walter with the other clansmen.
It was about half an hour later when the young lady entered her fatherâs room.
Watching as Walter-who was seated on a long teak bench-stared at her, the surprised Mia couldnât help but say, âFather..? What are you doing here so earlyâ¦?â
She, for one, clearly remembered that her father had told her that he wouldnât come over till the auctioning began since he had a more important meeting to attend to.
âIf I didnât come, all my hard work over the past ten years wouldâve been for naught! â replied Walter.
Momentarily freezing in place, Mia quickly said, âWhat could you be talking about, father?â
âEnough games, Mia. Youâve located the one who possesses the Herculean Primordial Spirit, correct?â
replied Walter in a commanding tone.
âThird elder, did youâ¦?â muttered Mia as she turned to look at the old man in gray who was standing close by.
âIndeed⦠You should know how critical this information is to the patriarch, so please donâ t be mad at me⦠â replied Third elder as he looked to the side, embarrassed.
Knowing that there was no point hiding it any longer, Mia then took a deep breath before saying, âYes, Iâve located him.â
