Chapter 2351
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2351 Nearly choking on his tea upon hearing that, Gerald quickly shook his head before saying, ââ¦Y-youâre pulling my leg, right, Uncle Zemanâ¦?â
âDo you honestly think Iâd joke about my daughterâs life? Just so you know, my daughter has less than a year left before the cold poison enters high gear. With that said, the sooner you help her, the betterâ¦â
muttered Walter before heaving a heavy sigh.
Hearing that, Third elder added, âYou know, after observing you for some time, the patriarch and I have concluded that youâre a good man. With that said, once you cure her, weâre willing to make you the son-in-law of the Zeman family. If you agree, then weâll definitely teach you all the best techniques the cultivation realm has to offer. What more, weâll also provide you with an excellent environment to help your cultivation grow even faster!â
This time, the shocked Gerald wasnât able to stop himself in time, resulting in him spurting his tea all over the table and even getting some on Walter!
Quickly wiping his mouth dry, Gerald then stood up before exclaiming, âI- I apologize, Uncle Zemanâ¦!â
âDonât worry about it,â replied Walter with a wave of his hand.
Nodding in response, Gerald went silent for a while before eventually explaining, ââ¦The thing is⦠I already have a girlfriend⦠With that said, copulating with your daughter would mean that Iâm being unfaithful⦠What more, Iâm currently on a personal quest to save her!â
ââ¦Whatever the case is, you must save my daughter⦠Remember, saving a life is a meritorious act, so I believe that your girlfriend will understand and forgive you in the end. Actually, if nobody says a word about it, the secret will remain here forever,â replied Walter, fearing that Gerald would refuse to help in the end.
ââ¦Could⦠you give me some time to think about it.. ?â muttered Gerald as he scratched the back of his head. This wasnât something he could just agree with all willy-nillyâ¦
âActually, I have a better idea. Third elder, go call Mia over. Being such outstanding youngsters, Iâm sure both of them will warm up to each other soon enough!â ordered Walter who didnât really see Mila as an issue. After all, it wasnât as though Gerald was married to her. Even if Gerald was, Walter could easily take the boy from her if he really wanted to.
âPlease, donâtâ¦â replied Gerald as he raised his palm in refusal.
After giving Gerald a good, long, look, Walter got to his feet before bowing as he said, ââ¦Alright, then.
Go get some rest first. While Iâm giving you time to think about it, in the end, you must help my daughter recover. As long as she gets better, Iâll grant you any request you want, even if you want m y position as this familyâs patriarchâ¦â
âPlease donât say such things, Uncle Zeman⦠I have no interest in being your familyâs patriarch.
Regardless, I appreciate you giving me time to think things through⦠Also, if thereâs any other way to cure the cold poison, do let me know! Iâll be more than willing to help!â declared Gerald as he placed his fist and palm together before Walter.
Simply nodding in response, Walter then said,â Bring Gerald back, Yaacobâ¦â
Upon hearing that, Gerald saluted Third elder as well before finally leaving the room under Yaacobâs guidanceâ¦
Once they had left, Third elder walked toward Walter before whispering, ââ¦Do you think Gerald will help us in the end, patriarchâ¦?â
âI have the same question⦠â muttered Walter with a sigh before shaking his head.
âWhat will we do if he refusesâ¦?â asked Third elder in a slightly anxious voiceâ¦
