    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1404


    Hearing the giant snake say that, Gerald intensified his force, delivering more essential qi as he


    shouted, “I’m not letting you die like this…!”


    “…Heh… To think that I’d actually be able to make a friend after so long… And such a caring one at


    that… Thank you…” muttered the now tiny orb of green as it slowly began floating higher…


    Almost like fireflies taking flight in the night, the thought of the anaconda’s soul rose higher, and higher,


    until eventually, it scattered in a sea of glittering sparkles…


    As the final sparkles faded, Gerald found himself clenching his fists tightly. While he had only met the


    giant anaconda once before this, it had previously helped him. What more, the snake had even


    sacrificed the thought of its soul just to warn him about that masked old man… By that point, Gerald


    had already considered the snake to be part of his family, and he had sworn that he would never let


    those by his side get hurt.


    In the end, however, he waspletely useless in that situation. The soul hadpletely disappeared,


    and there was nothing he could have done to prevent it from happening.


    The fact that Gerald had even lost Liemis’s corpse only served to make him want to beat himself up


    badly. Quite honestly, he didn’t even feel like showing his face to anyone at the moment due to his


    immense guilt and shame.


    “Worry not, I don’t me you for any of this, Gerald… Maybe it’s just my fate, and with that in mind,


    please don’t feel guilty over this incident… Whatever the case is, we need to leave for the Crawford


    Manor, quickly. After all, since the tomb ended up just like how the Mackusion had predicted, I’m truly


    worried that your family will end up getting attacked as well!” said Z.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    Hearing that, both Gerald and Peter’s gazes instantly turned anxious.


    “Remember, the Mackusion had disyed a ck light enshrouding the eerily silent ancient tomb back


    then… And the same atmosphere was present in the Crawford Manor that it showed us! With that in


    mind, we need to rush to your home right this instant, Gerald…!” added Z.


    As Peter’s eyelids twitched, the worried Gerald knew that all she had just said was right. From what the


    snake had told him, the murderer knew him very well. With that in mind, it was safe to assume that the


    masked man also knew about his family…


    Now anxious out of his wits, he knew he couldn’t allow something simr to happen to his family too…!


    Following that, Z quickly arranged for Leo to stay back and bury the giant anaconda’s carcass. After


    that, he was to safely escort Jasmine and the other women all the way back to Northbay.


    As for Gerald, Z, and Peter, the trio immediately headed for the Crawford Manor first.


    Given their capabilities, it would only take about a few hours for Gerald and the two others to reach the


    Crawford Manor in Northbay.


    Throughout his journey there, he couldn’t help but wonder how Lyra, Queta, and Giya—who had been


    recuperating in the Crawford Manor thest time he met them—were currently doing.


    He also found himself considering the security of the Crawford Manor. While it was true that those from


    the Soul Pce were currently guarding the ce, that masked man had been able to kill that giant


    anaconda with barely any trouble. With that in mind, Gerald was worried that if the masked old man


    had any bad intentions toward his family, nobody at the manor would be able to stop him!


    Regardless, after flying for a while, Gerald shouted, “The manor’s on the ind up ahead!”


    Since Gerald had slightly higher training than the other two, he was the first tond on the ind.


    However, he was already worried the second he set foot there. After all, despite the ind being so


    massive, there wasn’t a single soul around. The entire ce was simply devoid of its usual hustle and


    bustle…


    The dead silence was also quite eerie…


    Could the Mackusion truly have predicted his family’s misfortune as urately as it had foreseen the


    events at the ancient tomb…?


    Feeling his qi rising as his agitation and anxiousness peaked, his legs now felt like they were made of


    lead as he slowly stepped past therge entrance doors of the Crawford Manor…
