Chapter 2352
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2352 Third elder had watched over Mia ever since she was a child. With that said, though she wasnât his flesh and blood, he treated her like his daughter. It wasnât even a stretch to claim that Third elder was just as worried about the girl as Walter was.
â If he refuses, then weâll just have to force him to help her. We canât let the poison remain in her body for any longer! I wonât allow Mia to die!â declared Walter in an unwavering tone as he slammed his fist onto the table.
âUnderstood,â replied Third elder who honestly had the same idea. Even if they had to drug Gerald in the end, saving Mia was the priorityâ¦!
Moving back to Gerald, his brows had been furrowed ever since he left the dining room. While he now knew how the island kept disappearing, Walterâs words were simply too shocking for him to concentrate on that. The only way to save his daughter was to have intercourse with herâ¦? He thought such things only happened in movies!
Unfortunately, it seemed all too real nowâ¦
After walking for some time, Yaacob stopped in his tracks before saying, âI wonât be returning with you tonight, brother Geraldâ¦â
Nodding as he lit a cigarette, Gerald paused for a moment before asking in a helpless tone,â
Doesnât your family have endless power and resourcesâ¦? Is there truly no other way to save her?
âThe truth is, the patriarch and our familyâs elders have been searching far and wide for a cure throughout the span of ten years. The method we proposed is the only one we managed to find⦠It doesnât help that people possessing the Herculean Primordial Spirit are incredibly difficult to find. Just so you know, youâre the only personâwho fits all the requirementsâwhom weâve managed to find â
explained Yaacob. Now that Walter and Third elder had notified Gerald about all this, there was no reason for him to hide this information anymore.
ââ¦I see,â replied Gerald in a calm tone.
Hearing that, Yaacob grabbed Gerald by the arm before sincerely pleading, âPlease help her, brother Geraldâ¦!â
ââ¦Again, please give me some time to think things through,â muttered Gerald before walking forward, leaving Yaacob behindâ¦
By the time he got to the living room, the sky was already pitch black. Seeing that the lights in Lucian and Aidenâs room were already off, Gerald sat in the darkness for a whileâfinishing his cigaretteâ
before finally returning to his roomâ¦
The very next morning, Gerald was awoken by the sounds of people talking outside. After washing his face, he got dressed before opening his door⦠only to be greeted by the sight of two men in grey standing in his living room. They appeared to be talking to Lucian who looked rather confusedâ¦
Upon seeing Gerald, the Zemans immediately walked over to the boy before saying, âGood morning, Mr. Gerald! The patriarch told us to bring you some breakfast! Heâs worried that you havenât gotten used to our islandâs food yet!â
Frowning slightly, Gerald then replied, âThereâs no need for that-â
âPlease, Mr. Gerald, we insist you take the food. If you donât, we wonât be able to report back to the patriarch!â interrupted one of the Zemans.
Before Gerald could even reply, both of themâ having left the food behindâhad already marched out the doorâ¦
After checking the food âand realizing that they were just ordinary breakfast foodsâ, Gerald sighed before placing them on the table. Seeing that, the curious Lucian was prompted to ask, âWho were they, Geraldâ¦? And whoâs that patriarch they were talking about? Did you get to know another family during the auctionâ¦?â
