Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 804
While he had been excited to finally be able to dress in attire suited for rich heirs, he was exhausted
and in a bad mood yesterday. Because of that, he had forgotten to tell the servants to get something
ready for him before he went to bed.
Unexpectedly, somebody had already done that without even receiving his orders!
Heading to the bathroom in his pajamas, Gerald saw that all the usual items for personal hygiene had
already been prepared for him as well.
Thinking back, this was his home and family after all. The servants needed to be at least this attentive.
However, the thought of servants entering and leaving his room as he slept—to prepare such things for
him—still made Gerald feel slightly uneasy.
After all, what would happen if any of the maids entered while he was sleeping naked? The thought of it
alone sent chills running down his spine.
At that moment, Gerald heard three distinct knocks on his door.
“Who is it?” asked Gerald.
“I’m a maid, young master. I go by Helena. May I know what you wish to wear today? I’ll prepare it for
you as you get ready!”
Hearing that, Gerald headed to the door and opened it. Just as Helena had said, she was a maid
standing attentively right outside his door.
“Prepare? The ones hanging on the head of my bed already look fine to me. Weren’t you the one who
ced those there?” asked Gerald rather doubtfully.
In response, Helena shook her head before saying, “We’re prohibited from entering your room without
your permission, young master. I’m guessing that it was the youngdy who prepared them for you!
She’s the only one who’s allowed to enter any room you’re in. What more, when I passed through the
corridor at around five today, I noticed that the light in your room was on!”
“…I see. So it was Lyra…”
Understanding what had happened now, he allowed Helena to resume her work.
Once she was gone, Gerald let out a mental sigh as he wondered whether he should find some time to
exin everything clearly to Lyra. After all, both of them were simply not meant to be.
Being older than he was, Gerald was adamant that Lyra should be free to pursue her own happiness.
She didn’t need to get married to him just to repay the kindness that the Crawford family had bestowed
upon her.
With his decision absolute, Gerald then changed into one of the suits. However, he found it quite
awkward that he still didn’t know how to wear a tie properly. Even after a few tries, it still appeared
lopsided.
“Let me help you with that, Gerald!” said Lyra as she smiled at him. Apparently, he had been so
engrossed with getting his tie right that he hadn’t even noticed that she had been standing at the door
for some time!
Looking at the mirror and seeing how lopsided the tie still was, Gerald simply gave it and allowed her to
lend him a hand.
Receiving his approval, Lyra continued smiling as she walked over to him. With her help, it didn’t take
long before his cors were smooth and his tie looked much more properpared to earlier.
“Dad’s throwing a feast for you and Quetater. Since it’ll be our first reunion meal together, let’s head
there early!”
The main residence of the Crawford family was arge vi within a scenic neighborhood. Everyone
living there owned a simrlyrge vi.
“I’m fine with that. While we’re at it, do take me to my father. I’ve been told he has something to inform
me!” replied Gerald.
With that, Lyra led Gerald to his father. Once they got there, his mother immediately ushered Lyra to
come to the side to have a chat with her. It was clear how much she adored Lyra.
Gerald himself entered the study room with his father. Once they were inside, Dn looked at his son
before getting straight to the point.
“Regarding M… Please don’t be sad, Gerald. This entire incident… It isn’t as simple as you think it
is…”
“What do you mean by that?”
Taking in a deep breath, Dn then exined, “I saw the symbol that M received before her
disappearance, Gerald. It’s the very same symbol that your uncle received that year before he
disappeared as well. While both incidents are simr, more clues—aside from the fact that the victims
disappear after receiving the pendant with the symbol—have been hard toe by.”
“However, after investigating it for so many years, I think I’ve finally found a few relevant clues! Gerald,
both M and your uncle may still be alive!” said Dn in a hushed voice.C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.
“Is… Is that really true, dad?” replied Gerald as his eyes lit up.
