    Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2354


    Though he said that, Lindsay was still abducted because of him. With that said, if Maddox lost it and


    ended up killing her, then he would indirectly be the cause of her murder… Should that scenarioe


    to be, then not only would Gerald feel guilty for the rest of his life, but he would also be unable to face


    Aiden ever again…


    Regardless, upon hearing Lindsay’s name, Lucian was prompted to take his phone out before saying, “


    Speaking of Lindsay, I’ll give my butler a quick call to see if he’s obtained the firearms.”


    Hearing that, Aiden quickly inched closer to Lucian as the call was made. Shortly after, a smile formed


    on Lucian’s face as he cheerily said, “Looks like my butler was able to get some from a few dealers!


    Even so, I don’t think they’re enough to secure your safety since your opponent this time is the military


    department…”


    “Worry not, uncle Grubb! I’ll definitely save Miss Lindsay, even if I have to sacrifice myself!” dered


    Aiden as he gritted his teeth.


    Unlike Aiden, Gerald remained calm as he asked,“ Speaking of the military, have there been any other


    news about them?”


    “Come to think of it, remember that friend of mine whom I said was working with the Yanam military?


    Well, I received an update from himst night. He told me that Maddox had continued leading a troop


    of soldiers—with arge batch of armory supplies— out every night since the day we left for the ind.


    However, since Maddox is the deputy chief, my friend hadn’t dared to order his most trusted men to pry


    any deeper…” exined Lucian rather


    quickly, almost as though he was worried that he would forget any key details.


    “Looks like he really is doing something there… ” growled Aiden as he clenched his fists.


    “…There?” asked Lucian.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “A forested area quite far behind the military’s office. The night Aiden and I made our move, we tailed


    Maddox and his soldiers all the way to an obscure building in that forest. While we had a feeling that


    Miss Lindsay was being held captive there, we also figured that Maddox had already set plenty of traps


    around the area, which was why we returned to the manor instead of proceeding to save her back


    then,” exined Gerald.


    “…Oh? Actually, I think both of you told me about this before…” muttered Lucian as he tapped his


    cheek.


    “Either way, to think that Maddox is still setting the ce up after so many days. He must really want


    me dead,”      replied Gerald with a smirk.


    “But of course, he does! Once you’re out of the picture, he’ll be sure to rece Carter in bing the


    next chief! What more, if he fails to take you out, I’m sure he knows that there’s a high chance that he’ll


    end up being the next Godwin!” said Lucian with augh.


    Nodding as he finished his soy milk, Gerald then tossed the drink packet into a trash can before


    replying, “Indeed. Once the auction is over, our first course of action will be to save Miss Lindsay. I


    honestly can’t wait to see what Maddox has prepared for me…!”


    It was sometimeter when the trio arrived at the viewing box again, and the auctioning began shortly


    after. After yesterday’s auction, several families—who had managed to purchase items— had either left


    or had been assassinated. Naturally, the assassinating families had also left after getting what they


    wanted…
