    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 798


    While Gerald worked tirelessly day in and day out, his efforts proved to be fruitless, even as the tenth


    day passed by. He had exhausted every tactic he could think of, yet not even a hint of the ocean liner’s


    whereabouts could be found.


    “Where exactly are you, M… I… I refuse to believe that you’ve left me just like that!” said Gerald as


    he pulled his hair in desperation.


    By this point, he was constantly having shbacks of the moments he had spent with M. He now


    knew more than ever that M had made great efforts just to be with him.


    On the eleventh morning, Gerald sat on the beach in a daze, unsure of what else he could even do to


    look for the ship.


    As he continued racking his brains, his phone began to ring. It was a call from Jessica.


    “Good morning, brother!”


    Hearing her voice, Gerald couldn’t help but smile faintly as he replied, “Good morning, sister. Have you


    returned to Northbay safely? How are things going?”


    Two days ago, Jessica had returned to Hong Kong to apany Gerald after learning of M’s


    disappearance. During that time, Jessica had taken the opportunity to tell Gerald about the things


    which had happened to M when she was in Hong Kong.


    However, since something was happening within the family, Jessica had to return to Northbay in a


    hurry.


    “I’m fine, though let’s not talk about me for the moment. I’m sure that you’re aware that our family is


    hosting a family assembly tomorrow… Since you haven’t returned in twenty-two years, dad’s asking for


    you to attend the assembly this time around. Aside from that, he also wants to talk to you about


    something!” replied Jessica.


    Hearing that, Gerald tossed a stone toward the ocean before nodding.


    “…Very well. I’ll be returning tomorrow then!”

    The very next day, Gerald arrived on arge ind in Northbay belonging to the Crawfords. On it, was


    a building so magnificent and massive that it looked almost like a castle.


    It was the day of the Crawford family’s family assembly, and the day where Crawfords from all walks of


    life would return to the ind to attend the meeting.


    Being arge family with several branches, at least a few thousand people were expected to attend the


    meeting. Not that that was a problem since the ind could easily house tens of thousands of guests.


    As Fynn led Gerald around, Gerald couldn’t help but feel slightly anxious. After all, this was Gerald’s


    first time returning ‘home’. What more, this new ce was much grander andrger, even when


    compared to his sister’s ind!


    Since this was the first time the Crawford family’s young master had returned, Fynn wanted to report


    Gerald’s arrival to his parents immediately. However, they seemed to be busy exchanging pleasantries


    with the other family members.


    It wasn’t surprising for Gerald to see his father that busy since he was, after all, the master. What more,


    there were already a lot of people there at that time.


    Because of that, Gerald replied, “There’s no real rush to report about my arrival. I’ll just wait till my


    parents are done greeting the guests. You go on ahead and deal with what you have to, Fynn. I’ll just


    go look for my sister in the meantime!”


    Hearing that, Fynn nodded before running off to deal with other things.


    After giving his sister a call, she told him to wait for her there, stating that she would rush over as soon


    as she could.


    Now momentarily bored, Gerald simply sat at the side and looked out at the sea as he slowly entered a


    daze again.


    “Say Bethany, didn’t you say you were looking for a person to help pick up tennis balls? There’s a silly


    looking man over there who’s been sitting idly for a while! Why don’t we ask him to do it?” said a girl


    who looked to be around eighteen of age.


    The girl was part of a group with other simrly aged girls and also some older ones. All of them


    sported tennis-wear, and a few of them were still ying in pairs as the girl asked her question.


    Since it was usually only the family elders who would step up during such asions, juniors like them


    would take the opportunity to have fun and eat to their hearts’ content.


    “Sure, why not? Call him over!” replied Bethany as she swung her racket over her shoulder before


    pointing at Gerald who hadn’t broken from his daze.
