    Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2168


    “Is… there anything else you’d like to know? I’ll answer honestly!” replied Amare who was now feeling


    that Gerald wasn’t the person he had previously assumed to be.


    The truth was, he had initially thought that Gerald was an evil and ruthless person who would do


    anything to breach into the Crawford family and exploit them once he became the patriarch. After their


    brief interaction, however, he now felt that Gerald was actually a rather gentle soul, contrary to his initial


    belief.


    While it was true that he still killed the assassin from before, Gerald had every right to do so since he


    was ambush-attacked by him… Regardless, Gerald had also made it a point that he was going to


    spare his life just because they shared the same surname. It was honestly making Amare feel slightly


    touched…

    Amare’s train of thought was cut short when Gerald calmly replied, “That’s all I needed to know.”


    “I see… Well, as promised, you can scrap my cultivation now and I’ll head home immediately… ” said


    Amare in a n equally calm tone despite knowing full well what would happen once his cultivation was


    taken away from him.


    Essentially, he’d turn into an ordinary person, and Amare was pretty sure that those he had previously


    offended would take the chance to treat him harshly…


    Even so, having to experience that was worth it as long as he could remain alive. After all, all wasn’t


    lost. He simply had to start from scratch again. If he died now, however, everything would truly end.


    Hearing that, Gerald simply poked twice on the chakras on Amare’s chest before replying in an


    indifferent tone, “Just leave.”


    “… Huh?” asked Amare as he slowly regained control over his body. Hopping to his feet, Amare


    couldn’t help but feel exceedingly confused at the moment. After all, Gerald scraping his cultivation in


    exchange for his life was already extremely merciful of the youth. So why was he letting him leave just


    like that? Had Gerald forgotten that he had attempted to assassinate him earlier?


    “Unless you’re secretly a masochist, I suggest you leave while you can,” said Gerald with a chuckle.


    “… I… Of course, I’m not…” muttered Amare who couldn’t feel any murderous intent from Gerald as he


    slowly walked toward the youth.


    Taking in a deep breath, Amare then asked, “… I just don’t get it. That man and I were tasked to


    assassinate you, you know? With that said, since you killed him, why aren’t you ending my life as


    well?”


    Puffing on his cigarette, Gerald eventually replied, “… It’s simple, really. It’s because you’re a Crawford


    and he isn’t. While I didn’t grow up with the rest of the cultivating Crawfords, I’m still Daryl’s grandson.


    As a child, I made quite a few fond memories with him, you know? While I still have no idea why he


    abducted my family which is the reason why I’m trying so hard to meet him on Yearning Ind, you see


    that doesn’t change the fact that you’re still a Crawford. Just so you know, given the choice, I’d very


    much prefer saving people rather than killing them…”


    “… I…” muttered Amare as his voice slowly trailed off.


    After all, he had never stopped to wonder why Gerald was trying so hard to get to Yearning Ind.


    Now, he was finally aware that the patriarch had captured his family… Still, since the patriarch was


    Gerald’s grandfather, that essentially meant that he had abducted his own son and daughter-inw!


    Whatever the case was, Gerald then handed Amare a cigarette before asking, “Have you seen them?”


    “… Only once, but even that was quite a while ago…” replied Amare as he took the cigarette and lit it


    with Gerald’s lighter.


    Hearing that, Gerald momentarily trembled as his eyes grew slightly watery. Shaking his head, Gerald


    then asked, “… How were they doing back then?”


    After thinking for a moment, Amare eventually replied, “… Well, they were being treated rather well,


    honestly. The patriarch emphasized that none of them could be mistreated, so though they’re being


    kept in the backyard, they should still be well fed and clothed… At the very least, they still were back


    then… Regardless, apart from the patriarch and his cronies, nobody else is allowed to enter…”


    “… I see. Is Will allowed to enter?” asked Gerald as his expression turned gloomy…
