    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1128


    Gerald was smiling as he said that while looking at Yume.


    “It… It’s you!” shouted Yume.


    While her face had initially been pale from panic, the moment she saw Gerald, it instantly turned red as


    a tomato. Though she was clearly blushing, Gerald could simultaneously sense a deep hatred as well


    as a hint of killing intent in her eyes.


    “It is indeed… Regardless, it seems that we both came here today with the same purpose in mind. Are


    you nning to head to the king of the ocean’s pce as well?” asked Gerald who had been surprised


    to hear her muttering about it earlier.


    “I… I don’t know! Stop talking to me!” replied Yume before standing up and immediately turning to face


    the other way as she recalled Master Ghost’s earlier words about the fate of her marriage…


    “Judging from the results of the marriage stone, it appears that you’ve already met the person you’ll


    end up falling in love with, Miss Gunter! From what I can see, it seems that both of you only separated


    quite recently as well!” said Ghost when Yume had still been in the church earlier.


    “The person I’ll end up falling for…? Who could that be? Actually… It… couldn’t be him, right? The


    person they refer to as Mr. Crawford…?”


    Shaking his head, Ghost then replied, “Quite unfortunately so…”


    “Unfortunately? Now why would you say that?”


    “While it states here that you’ll definitely end up falling for him, he won’t love you in return! It’s just a


    sad ending since both of you will never be together!” exined Ghost before sighing.


    “…You! You old man! Quite spouting nonsense! I’d never fall for someone who wouldn’t love me back! I


    refuse to believe you!” retorted Yume angrily.


    “It’s simply the truth! It’s not up to you to decide!”


    “The truth? Hahaha! Even if that’s the case, I won’t allow it to happen! I’ll just kill him when I see him


    again to avoid any futureplications then! Once I’m done with that, I’ll return to burn down your


    church!”


    Following that, she had descended the mountain in a huff, feeling greatly angered and frustrated as


    she made her way for the Minshall family’s ancestral mines.

    Of course it had to be Gerald. While she had to admit that he was quite handsome and he was also the


    one who had saved her life, he didn’t have any other suitable qualifications to make her fall for him!


    What absolute nonsense!


    While she had been sure that she’d never ever meet him again back then, she now realized how wrong


    she had been. In fact, not only was he standing behind her right now, but he had also just saved her life


    for the second time!


    “…Regardless, you should really move around less since you’re still injured. You know, while the stone


    is useful to me, I don’t mind sharing part of it with you!” replied Gerald with a smile as he slowly


    approached the girl to help support her.


    Once he was close enough, however, she simply pushed him away fiercely before shouting, “Don’t


    touch me!”


    “What a temper! I’ll have you know that the water repellent stone now belongs to the Crawford family!


    Aren’t you ashamed at all for attempting to steal something before its owner?!” replied Gerald in


    resignation.


    With that, he went over to pick the stone up. Once he had it, he immediately turned around to leave.


    “…W-wait!”


    “What is it?”


    “You… You said you would share part of the water repellent stone with me, right…?” asked Yume in a


    much softer tone now.


    While she truly felt like killing Gerald now, she knew she was incapable of doing so. But if she didn’t do


    that now, would she truly end up falling for him…?


    “Since you asked so nicely, sure.”


    While the water repellent stone was only the size of a palm, even if it were to be split into a thousand


    pieces, each piece would still retain its initial functionality without any degradation in its performance.


    With that in mind, Gerald simply broke off three pieces of the stone and handed them to Yume.


    “Since both of us will be heading to the king of the ocean’s pce sooner orter anyway, why don’t we


    head there together?” suggested Gerald.


    Quite frankly, he found her to be quite the suspicious character. After all, while he had only managed to


    find out about the king of the ocean’s pce after slow and careful investigation, based on what Yume


    had earlier said, the girl was apparently heading there toplete a task that her grandmother had


    entrusted her with.


    For her grandmother to have business to attend to within the king of the ocean’s pce… Who could


    she be? Could Yume’s grandmother have secrets of her own as well? Gerald truly wanted to get to the


    bottom of this.


    “There’s no need to consider that! I’m not traveling with you!” replied Yume as she clutched onto her


    abdomen before slowly staggering out.


    It was at that moment when Gerald noticed something was off. Sniffing the air, he couldn’t help but


    raise a brow as he shouted, “This isn’t good! Return here, quickly!”<
