Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2058

Clearly appearing to be in a dilemma, the young person then walked closer to her before whispering, "You, of all people, should know very well that the master always opposes the idea of strangers coming over, miss..."

Though the man had whispered, Gerald was able to hear every word he said. With that in mind, he quickly found himself smiling. After all, based on what that man had said, the possibility of the Futabas being part of the Seadom tribe grew exponentially. Whatever the case was, Fujiko then frowned slightly as she replied, "Just so you know, I was attacked by one of the Hanyus earlier! Had this man not stepped in to save me earlier, I would've been dead by now."

Upon hearing that, the young man's eyes instantly widened. However, he quickly snapped out of it before turning to look at Gerald and respectfully saying, "I-I see! Please, come in, sir!"

Stepping out of the car, Gerald was prompted to say, "It seems that you're pretty highly ranked in your family..."

Smiling slightly awkwardly, Fujiko then replied, "Well, my dad's the master of the family, you see..."

Honestly, it was exactly because of that that she kept getting into dangerous situations, even on the most normal of days...

Before Gerald could reply, the young man from before-who had noticed that Gerald was holding onto a bag extended his hand before saying, "Please allow me to carry your belongings!" Waving his hand in response, Gerald replied, "It's fine."

Following that, Gerald then followed Fujiko into the manor. Since she had contacted her father in advance, the two were immediately granted access to the reception room at the end of the manor... Shortly after, a paunchy middle-aged man came rushing toward them. The second he saw Fujiko, he immediately grabbed her by her arms-completely ignoring Gerald-and began scanning her from head to toe while exclaiming, "Fujiko! I heard from the guard at the door that you were faced with danger earlier! What on earth happened? Tell me, quick...!"

Understanding that her father was simply concerned for her safety, Fujiko simply smiled as she replied, "I'm fine, dad... I'm not hurt at all."

"That's a relief to hear...! I was so worried the second I heard that the Hanyus attacked you! Still, how did they find out where you were...? Regardless, weren't you participating in a special forces competition? Why the hell did the military keep this from me?!" asked the middle-aged man as he sighed in relief.

"I'm not sure how they located me either, but just to be clear, I didn't report this incident to the military. Call it a hunch, but I have a feeling that there's a Hanyu hiding within the military. That would surely explain how the Hanyus found me," replied Fujiko with a slight frown.

"I see... Whatever the case is, just stay home for now and leave the rest to me. I'll be sending out some of our men to investigate further into this! You may not like what I'm about to say, but I'm also contacting the military to cancel your entry in the competition!" declared the middle-aged man, his eyes still filled with worry...

"Alright... Regardless, this is Gerald Crawford from Weston, dad, and he was the one who saved me said Fujiko as she clung onto her father's arms and pulled him closer to Gerald.

"Gerald... Crawford...? What a familiar name... Could it be that... you're the one responsible for all that chaos in Yanam a while back...?" asked the middle-aged man as he looked closely at Gerald.

He, for one, was definitely influential enough to know about things like this. Besides, due to how impactful Gerald's actions had been, it would surely be difficult to forget his name after hearing it... Realizing that the man recognized who he was, Gerald found no reason to lie and simply replied, "Well, yes, that was me..."
