Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2112
Though Fujiko’s initial tone had been gleeful, halfway through her sentence, she seemed to realize that
she had said something she shouldn’t have, prompting her to shut up.
While Gerald found that suspicious, he maintained a calm fa?ade as he asked, “What about your
family?”
“I… Well, of course my family would know such things. The Futabas are quite powerful, after all,”
replied Fujiko before covering her mouth slightly.
“Makes sense,” said Gerald as he went along with her. Still, after all this time they had spent together,
Gerald had a feeling that Fujiko had identally just confirmed that her family was part of the Seadom
tribe.
Feeling thankful that Gerald wasn’t pressuring her to continue, after breathing a sigh of relief, Fujiko
then added, “…Regardless, though I know there are ninjas in that family, I’ve never personally met any.
After all, the other powerful families, ours included, don’t really have a reason to contact them. With
that in mind, they’ve just been living here, left mostly secluded from regr citizens.”
After thinking about it for a while, Gerald further slowed the SUV down to ensure that the other two cars
would be able to catch up before looking out the windows while asking, “… Speaking of which, now that
we’ve entered their territory, do you think they’lle looking for trouble with us?”
“There’s a low chance of that… After all, as far as I know, the Yamashitas don’t really have any
conflicts with other families. With that in mind, as long as we don’t disturb or identally threaten them,
we should be able to pass through their territory just fine,” replied Fujiko.
“That’s good to know. Regardless, Endo and Izumi are probably with them. Since we’ve caught those
two, once we take care of those people who’ve been tailing us, we may finally find out whether it’s the
Kanagawas or Hanyus who are behind the assassination attempts,” sneered Gerald with a wry smile.
“Regardless of which family they belong to, we can’t let them off easily after all that they’ve done!”
growled Fujiko who now cared about her family’s safety more than anything else.
Nodding in response, Gerald finally hit the brakes once they got to a t, barren area…
Following that, he was prompted to ask, “Do you still remember what I told you?”
Confused, Fujiko replied, “… Um… Perhaps be a bit more specific…?”
Lighting a cigarette, Gerald then nced at the rear view mirror and watched as the cars behind them
got closer and closer… Pushing the car door open, he then stretched before saying, “I promised to
protect you and your family… And I always keep my promises.”

Upon hearing that, Fujiko paused for a moment before asking, “… Why are you doing all this for us…?”
She really couldn’t imagine why Gerald was helping her and her family so much. Even if there was
something from her family that he wanted which she had no idea what it could possibly be, with how
strong he was, he could’ve easily gotten what he desired through brute force.
By this point, Fujiko was pretty sure that he wasn’t doing all this for her either. After all, back when they
were still pretending to be a couple, Gerald had actively made it clear that it was just pretend. He
wasn’t interested in her at all!
As she thought about it, she couldn’t help but smile. After all, to others, she and Gerald were still a
couple. Though they were faking their rtionship now, who was to say that it wouldn’t end up turning
into a real one? The thought of it alone greatly improved Fujiko’s mood.
Either way, after Gerald stepped out of the SUV, the other two cars came to a halt not too far off. Even
so, nobody stepped out. Instead, the men opted to update Ryugu about their current situation…
“… What? They’ve entered the Yamashita family’s territory?!” yelled Ryugu as he mmed the steering
wheel before hitting the brakes, causing the car toe to a screeching halt by the roadside…
