Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2194
The second the meeting ended, all the other Futabas began flocking around Gerald, handing him their business
cards as they said, “We’ve truly had some misunderstandings in the past, mister! But putting that aside, we’ll now
be counting on you to revive our family’s glory!”
“Yeah, what he said! Speaking of which, here’s my contact number! If you require any help in the future, don’t
hesitate to call! I’ll be sure to help as best as I can!”
“Make sure to take my number too!”
Smiling subtly in response at everyone’s overenthusiasm, Gerald simply accepted the cards as he replied, “One at a
time, I’ll be taking all your cards. Don’t worry…”
Gerald, for one, didn’t really know the other Futabas by name, at least previously. Now that he had their name
cards, he would know who to look for should the Futabas required help getting rid of ‘problematic individuals’ in the

Either way, since everyone was surrounding Gerald, Takuya who was still sitting on the main seat ended up getting
completely ignored.
It was only after everyone was done handing out their business cards, when they finally turned to look at Takuya
again before saying, “Well, we’ll be taking our leave first, patriarch. We’d rather not disturb you any longer. By the
way, if you ever require any help from us in future, just say the word. In times of trouble, we Futabas should and will
stick together!”
Unable to bear how pretentious his family was being, the pained Takuya who could now distinguish the family
members who sincerely cared about the family and those who just wanted to use the family to gain more wealth
simply yelled, “Just leave already!”
With that said, it took only ten minutes for everyone except for those who were already living in the manor to leave.
Now that everyone was gone, Takuya heaved a heavy sigh.
Seeing how unhappy Takuya was, Gerald smiled as he slipped the name cards into his pocket before saying, “Don’t
bother about them, patriarch. I’ll deal with them later on.”
Once all the current troubles were out of the way, Gerald promised himself that he would kick all of those insincere
family members out of this family…! Gerald, for one, believed that Takuya would agree with his decision.
Regardless, upon hearing Gerald’s statement, Takuya couldn’t help but worry. After all, he knew his family’s true
colors best, and he didn’t want Gerald falling for their insincere fawning. With that in mind, Takuya was prompted to
reply, “Do be careful around those exploiters. They’re definitely just trying to get on your good side to reap benefits
from you! Just so you know,
Had you not shown evidence that the Yamashitas were on your side, I’m sure they wouldn’t have been this easily
satisfied.”
Chuckling in response, Gerald casually said, “If they truly manage to take advantage of me, then you can be sure
that I’m not the real Gerald!”
Nodding in response, Takuya was then prompted to ask, “I’m glad to hear that… Putting them aside, how are you
planning to deal with the Hanyus?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDespite being the Futaba patriarch, Takuya had gotten used to asking for Gerald’s opinion on things, especially
when it involved major things like these. Honestly, Gerald now felt like the true backbone of the Futaba family.
Either way, upon hearing that, Gerald asked in return, “Well… any suggestions, patriarch?”
“Let’s hear your opinion first,” replied Takuya with a smile as he gestured for Gerald to proceed.
“Well, I plan to meet up with the Hanyus and talk to them face to face in hopes of getting some things clear,”
replied Gerald after thinking about it for a while.
“…Come again? You’re attempting to talk things out with the family that’s resorted to assassination so many
times?” said Takuya as his smile turned into a frown.
“That’s honestly part of the reason why I plan to meet them in person,” replied Gerald with a nod.
Upon hearing that, Takuya figured that Gerald must have devised a solid plan. With that in mind, Takuya eventually
said, “Alright, let’s go with that, then. I’ll make sure to send some of my men over to keep you safe. Since the
Yamashitas are on your side, it’ll do you good to bring some of them along. Don’t worry about the manor, I’m pretty
confident that we’ll remain safe
Till your return.”
“I’ll have to disagree there, patriarch. After all, I only plan to bring two people with me,” replied Gerald as he waved
his hand.
