The Secretly Rich Man
The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2442 The second the attack connected with her shoulder, Fae instantly went pale before spurring out blood!
âS-Second Young Mistressâ¦!â exclaimed Gerald in fake panic before tossing two gas bombs! The bombs themselves quickly exploded, fogging the entire area within secondsâ¦!
When the fog finally cleared, the two were nowhere to be seen. Even so, Darkwind and Lyndon couldnât help but grin at each other. It had all been a big act, so they were naturally not going to give chase.
Regardless, Lyndon couldnât help but feel slightly worried, prompting him to ask, âAre you sure your attack earlier wasnât fatalâ¦?â
âWorry not, I barely used any force. Still, thatâll be sufficient to scare her! From this point on, we should just leave the rest to Mr. Crawford,â replied Darkwind in a cheery tone.
Moving back to Gerald, he ran and ran with the injured Fae in his arms till they finally arrived at a park some thirty miles away.
Realizing just how far from the restaurant they now were, Fae was prompted to say, âC-Chuck! Put me down! They wonât come after us anymoreâ¦!â
Once Gerald did as she told, the crying girl took in a deep breath before growling, âThat does it! I wonât let those two offâ¦! In fact, I wonât let that young man off, either! All three of them must dieâ¦!â
âWell said! Though⦠Urn⦠Young Mistressâ¦? Thereâs somethingâ¦â muttered the wide-eyed Gerald as he stared in fake shock at Fae.
âWhat? Whatâs wrong?â
âW-well⦠Your lips have gone purple! Could the old manâs attack have been poisonousâ¦?â whimpered Gerald.
âH-huhâ¦?! T-then⦠What should I doâ¦?!â exclaimed the now worried Fae.
âCome to think of it, your symptoms are quite similar to Masterâs⦠However, Master has immense inner strength which allows him to resist the poison. With the aid of the holy medicine, heâll surely be able to eventually be cured! However, you have neither of them soâ¦â muttered Gerald as he shook his head.
âW-what should I do, thenâ¦?! I donât want to dieâ¦!â wailed Fae as she rapidly began shaking her head.
âIf you drink the holy medicine within the hour, you may be able to save your life! However, Master guards it extremely strictly, and heâs even declared that nobody could use the holy medicine but him!â
replied Gerald.
âHow on earth did I even end up in such a situation..?! D*mn it all! Go get the medicine for me now! I only have an hour left! Even my legs are wobbly now!â ordered the terrified girl who felt like her legs were giving out.
âB-but Master would never give me the holy medicine! After all, Master Trilight gave it to him..!â replied Gerald.
âOf course, he wouldnât! Lowly people like you canât even hope to enter the secret chamber! I was naturally telling you to get my sister to obtain the medicine! After all, she knows all sorts of magical arts!
Once you tell her about my condition, sheâll surely come in a jiffy!â explained Fae whose face was already getting exceedingly pale.
After nodding in response, Gerald then ran off but after running out of the park, he stopped in his tracks. Standing by the roadside, he then began puffing on a cigarette..!
It was only after he was done with the cigarette that be transformed to look exactly like Faeâs sister. By the time be re-entered the park, he quickly saw that Fae was shivering in fear, thinking that she was slowly dying.
Mimicking Elainâs voice, Gerald then exclaimed, âSister!â
Upon hearing that, Fae turned to face Gerald while wailing, âS-Sister! I think I have the same condition as Father now..! I can hardly even move my legs anymore..!â
âSo Iâve heard. Donât worry, Iâll get the holy medicine to treat you! However, I think I left my key on the hill. Father and I were at the Trilight Church for his treatment earlier, you see. Either way, Iâll be heading there to find my key first!â
âT-thereâs no need for that! I have a key over my neck! So please, take it and burryâ¦!â pleaded Fae.
âWill do!â declared Gerald as he ran off with the key.
