    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1298


    With how serious and fearful her voice was, Gerald could tell that Yume’s warning was the real deal.


    “…Still, why did the King of Judgement Portal evene over to seek out the Gunters? Could he


    actually have anticipated that I woulde over?” asked Gerald rather doubtfully.


    “That could be one of the reasons, though I’m honestly not too sure… I’m aware of their other


    objective, though. From what I’ve heard, it seems that they’re nning to head to the Ancient Mountain


    in Ancient City! In case you didn’t know, strange incidents happen on that mountain every few years!”


    exined Yume.

    “What sort of strange incidents…?” asked Gerald curiously.


    “That I’m not too sure of,” replied Yume as she shook her head.


    Despite that, Gerald was slowly seeding in piecing together more and more pieces of the puzzle.


    From what Gerald now knew, there were three powerful groups hunting him down. Even though he had


    already received the baptism of heaven, he knew that he still wasn’tpletely out of the woods yet.


    At his current strength, Gerald was well aware that he still wasn’t going to be a match against Queena,


    and she wasn’t the only threat either. After all, he still had the other Gunters, the Judgement Portal,


    Hogan, and the King of Judgement Portal to deal with.


    The more he thought about it, the more he realized how dangerous his current situation was. After all,


    from the way things had been progressing, he could get caught by any of them at any moment.


    “Whatever the case is, just continue hiding in the meantime… Since I’ve already told you all this, I’m


    assuming I’ve repaid all your kindness from back then! With that in mind, we’ll be enemies the next


    time we meet again! Until then, take care!” said Yume as she looked one final time at Gerald before


    dashing off into the night.


    It was a little whileter when Yume snuck into the Gunter family’s manor. To her utter shock, her entire


    family was seated in the spacious hall, seemingly waiting for her to return!


    As everyone turned to look at her, Yume quickly realized who had nned all this.


    “Ldy Gunter!” eximed Yume, her face reflecting her brimming anxiety.


    “If I recall correctly, I’ve grounded you from leaving the manor ever since we returned from the king of


    the ocean’s pce… I guess you’ve suffered a bit too much to want to sneak out that badly!” said Lady


    Gunter with a faint smile. The way she said it suggested that the olddy knew exactly when Yume had


    snuck out earlier.


    With that in mind, Yume immediately knelt with a ‘plop’ before replying, “I… I know you already know


    everything that I’ve done earlier… While it’s true that I ruined your ns by meeting up with Gerald, I…


    I just wish to repay his kindness… He’s honestly a kind person who’s not even remotely close to how


    evil you’ve described him to be! He truly is kind, so please, Lady Gunter…! Please let him off!”


    Though Yume’s eyes were now red and teary, the other Gunters simply intensified their res after


    hearing what she had to say. Lady Gunter herself looked especially enraged.


    “You b*stard of a granddaughter…! It seems that it wasn’t wrong of me to worry about you! You’ve been


    bewitched, you hear! None of the Crawfords are good people, especially that pretentious Gerald! He


    only used you to help him look for the king of the ocean’s pce! Even after that, to think that you


    would actually go behind my back and inform him about all this in secret! You truly are a textbook


    example of biting the hand that feeds you! Let me remind you that you’re the indirect cause of the


    deaths of seven exceptional people from our family! If I hadn’t intended to beat him at his own game,


    you wouldn’t be able to escape from undergoing family punishment!” scowled the olddy, the corner of


    her lips twitching in rage.


    While Yume now knew that Lady Gunter was aware of the seven deaths, something else her


    grandmother had said sent shivers down her spine. Trembling, she then asked, “…Beat him at his own


    game…? Lady Gunter, what do you mean by that?”


    “Humph! Since Gerald hase to Querton City, do you honestly think that Lady Gunter will let him off


    that easily?”
