    Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2059


    “No wonder your name sounded so familiar! So you really are the person who had single-handedly


    taken out those three major families in Yanam! If I remember correctly, you caused the Yanam military


    quite a bit of trouble as well!” eximed Fujiko’s father.


    Upon hearing that, Fujiko instantly saw Gerald in a new light. Truth be told, she had found his name to


    be oddly familiar as well when she first learned of it. To think that this was the very Gerald who had


    wreaked havoc in Yanam!


    Realizing that he had brought something awkward up, Fujiko’s father then cleared his throat before


    waving his hand as he added, “…Regardless, there’s no need to exin why you did it. I don’t have


    any interest in the affairs of Yanam, and I’m sure you had your reasons for doing that as well. Putting


    all that aside, the important thing is that you saved my dearest daughter… Had you not stepped in, she


    would’ve surely… Well, whatever the case is, from today onward, you’re a benefactor of my family! If


    you ever need anything, just say the word and the Futabas will try our best to help you!”

    “I appreciate it,” replied Gerald with a smile, pleased that he had gotten into Fujiko’s father’s good


    books. That alone was enough for now, and Gerald knew better than to ask about the Seadom tribe


    straight off the bat.


    “Indeed! Speaking of which, allow me to introduce myself! As you may have already known, I’m


    Futaba’s father and also the master of this family. You can call me Futaba Takuya,” said Takuya as he


    patted his forehead before extending his arm for a handshake.


    “A pleasure to meet you. The name’s Gerald Crawford, and I’m from Weston,” replied Gerald as he


    shook hands with Takuya.


    After their hands parted, Takuya thought for a while before saying, “Hmm… From past experience, I


    have a feeling that the Hanyus should already be investigating you. With that in mind, do stay with us in


    the meantime as I send my men out to deal with them for you. Also, if you need anything, just say the


    word!”


    “It’s fine, I can handle myself. Though I am interested in knowing why an assassin family like the


    Hanyus—that even epts employment orders from outside Japan throughout the year—would be


    involved with your family…” replied Gerald as he lit a cigarette.


    “It’s… a long story, to say the least. Historically, my family has simply always had a grudge against the


    Hanyus, and detailing the story is going to take much too long. Regardless, I’ll have a nanny prepare a


    meal for you first,” said Takuya as he shook his head with a smile.


    “Well, I am slightly hungry…” muttered Gerald as he gently patted his stomach…


    It was a short whileter when the nanny returned to the main dining room—where the trio had earlier


    been led to—with several dishes…


    While waiting for their meal to arrive, Takuya had made sure to order his men to investigate how news


    about Fujiko’s participation in the militarypetition had been exposed. He also instructed them to


    keep an eye out around the hotel Master Ghost and Aiden were staying in. Though the Hanyus were


    technically much stronger than the Futabas, under Takuya’s guidance, the Futabas became


    considerably harder for the assassin family to deal with. Takuya’s vignce, for one, stemmed from the


    fact that he deeply adored his daughter, and would do anything to keep her safe. With that in mind, now


    that she had almost been assassinated, he very badly wanted to rush to the Hanyus to demand an


    exnation about all this.


    Suppressing the urge to do so, Takuya then handed some chopsticks to Gerald as he asked, “Speaking


    of which, what’s your reason foring to Japan, Mr. Crawford?”


    “Well, my friend is a special forces soldier, you see, and I’m keeping himpany for thepetition.


    I’m also here to gather some information,” replied Gerald as he began eating.


    “Oh? What information are you interested in obtaining? While my family isn’t all thatrge, we still have


    quite a number of connections in Japan. With that said, do share what you need to know. I may just be


    able to help,” said Takuya as he looked at the youth.


    “Don’t worry about it, I’ll hunt for the information myself,” replied Gerald with a smile, knowing full well


    that if he mentioned the Seadom tribe now, the duo would instantly get vignt, and thest thing he


    needed was for them to be his enemies now.


    “Well, I’m sure you have your reasons for that, so I won’t pry any further… Still, do remember that


    you’re my family’s benefactor, mister. If there’s anything you ever need help with, just say the word.


    We’ll try to help as best as we can!”
