The Secretly Rich Man

The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 2121-2130

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2121

Though Gerald felt that the old man’s reasoning clearly had holes in it, he chose not to say a word first. After all, even if things did go south, he knew he would still be able to protect Fujiko.

“Look, I’m just an outsider in all this, so I can’t settle your issues. With that said, if you still wish to fight, do it outside the Yamashita family’s territory. While I won’t meddle once you’re no longer here, as long as you remain, I forbid you from continuing to brawl. Do I have myself clear?” replied the old man rather threateningly before alternating his gaze between Gerald and Ryugu…

“… Got it,” muttered Ryugu who knew that he didn’t really have a choice but to agree.

“Good. Now that that’s out of the way, why don’t all of you accompany this old man for a few cups of tea? Since we rarely leave this place and we hardly ever get any visitors, I’d like to know what’s been happening in the outside world… Of course, if you’d like to leave first, I have no issue with that either,” replied the old man as he refilled their cups.

Upon hearing that, Gerald turned to look at Fujiko before asking, “Are you in any hurry?”

“Not at all… After all that’s happened, I’d like to rest here for a bit…” replied Fujiko who had a feeling that Gerald had something in mind, as she played along.

Nodding in satisfaction, the old man then turned to face Ryugu and added, “And what about you?”

“I… I’m… in no hurry either…” growled Ryugu as he desperately tried to maintain a calm façade.

Naturally, he understood that if he left now, Gerald could easily escape later on! What more, since Gerald already knew that he was being targeted, cornering him again would surely be difficult… Waiting at the fringes of the Yamashita’s territory wasn’t a viable option either since who knows how long those two would stall for time in here…

With that in mind, all he could do was wait here till Gerald finally decided to leave… Once that b*stard left, he would simply follow after and immediately make his move once they were beyond the Yamashita family’s territory…

Laughing heartily, the old man then said, “Well, then! How pleasing to hear! It truly has been too long since we’ve last had visitors from the outside!”

While he was annoyed to hear that, Ryugu made sure to force a smile…

Following that, time passed rather slowly… By the time they were done with their fifth pot of tea, the sky was already darkening outside…

To Ryugu’s annoyance, however, Gerald didn’t seem like he was keen on leaving at all! With that in mind, he knew he had no choice but to call Takeshi and update him on the situation…

The second Ryugu excused himself and left the room, the old man immediately gestured for Gerald to come over to him.

Seeing that, Gerald inched a bit closer before asking with a smile, “Is there anything I can help you with?”

“Indeed… Both of you can leave through the back door now… Shortly after, you should bump into someone who’ll then lead you to a car that I’ve prepared in advance…” whispered the old man in a somewhat rustic Weston dialect.

Slightly widening his eyes, Gerald couldn’t help but say, “You’re… from Weston…?”

Patting Gerald on the shoulder, the old man simply replied, “This isn’t the time to be talking about this. Regardless, once you’re done with your business, return to this place and I’ll give you a further explanation. Now leave…”

Nodding in response, Gerald then said, “…Noted. Thank you, elder…”

Though Gerald wasn’t particularly afraid of Ryugu, Fujiko still had a competition to attend…

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2122

Still, to think that the old man was actually a Westoner! While Gerald had no idea what was going on in the old man’s mind, he had a feeling that the elder didn’t have any bad intentions toward them…

With that, Gerald and Fujiko then left through the back and true enough, someone was there waiting for them.

After a quick bow, the man then began walking along the barren mountain, prompting Gerald and Fujiko to follow after. Not too long later, the trio came across a car, just as the old man had said.

Handing Gerald the car keys, the man then respectfully said, “Do take this car, Mr. Crawford. After driving forward for a bit, you’ll see the main road again.”

“Thank you,” replied Gerald without saying anything else. After all, it was already nearing dusk and they needed at least four hours to get to the competition venue. If they were unlucky, Fujiko’s tardiness could very well affect her final results…

With that in mind, upon entering the car, Gerald immediately stepped on the gas…

After driving for a bit, Fujiko could no longer hold her curiosity back. Looking at Gerald, she was prompted to ask, “So… What exactly is your relationship with the Yamashitas…?”

Chuckling in response, Gerald who had no idea who the old man from Weston was or why he decided to help them simply shook his head as he replied, “Truth be told, this is the first time I’ve met him.”

“… Come again? You don’t know each other?” muttered the confused Fujiko.

“Not at all. With that in mind, I’m coming back here once the competition is over, just to get a few things sorted out,” replied Gerald as he habitually attempted to get a cigarette. However, remembering Fujiko’s advice, he managed to refrain from doing so.

“… I see… Still, I didn’t think that there’d be a Westoner within the Yamashita family… What more, he’s apparently met my father before… Though he sounded like he was quite familiar with dad, I was never told anything about this before…” muttered Fujiko as the questions continued piling up.

“Then let’s find out more about all this together once the competition is over,” replied Gerald who was just as curious as to why the old man had decided to help them.

Moving back to Ryugu, after ending the call that took approximately ten minutes, he reentered the house only to momentarily freeze when he realized that Gerald and Fujiko were no longer there!

Upon hearing that, the old man took a long sip of tea… And once the cup was empty, he turned to face Ryugu before replying, “Hmm? They just left.”

“They… What…?!” growled Ryugu who’s expression instantly turned ugly. Had it not been for the fact that he didn’t wish to offend the Yamashitas, he would’ve already beaten up this old man…!

“Indeed. Is there a problem with that? After all, they aren’t exactly bound to my family. I can’t stop them from leaving,” replied the old man rather nonchalantly.

“… That…” muttered Ryugu as his voice trailed off. After all, the old man’s words made sense. In the end, he was the one to blame for making that phone call earlier. Because of that, Gerald and Fujiko found their chance to flee…

Now understanding that this was his own doing, Ryugu took a few deep breaths before calmly asking, “… Then tell me, how exactly did they leave and where are they headed to?”

When Ryugu had been making his call in the courtyard, he hadn’t seen anyone walk out the front door. The house wasn’t exactly large either, so the two of them hiding inside till he left was out of the question…

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2123

“They left through the back door, though they didn’t tell me where they were headed to,” replied the old man as he shook his head.

Now understanding that he wouldn’t find out where they had gone to no matter how much he asked, Ryugu immediately said, “Pardon me, but I’ll be taking my leave now!”

As he left the house, he figured that in the end, Gerald and Fujiko would still end up participating in the special forces competition. With that in mind, he knew that his best bet was to put them aside for now… After all, though he was the leader of the Hanyu’s assassination department, he wasn’t too keen on disrupting the activities of the war department. What more, since the competition was international, special forces from all over the globe would be present. Because of that, if he created a mess there, it’d surely cause his family a great deal of trouble…

Still, though he failed to capture Gerald this time, the trip wasn’t a complete disappointment. After all, he now knew that Endo and Izumi really were in the Futaba manor.
