The Secretly Rich Man

Chapter 1159

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1159 As Gerald listened to what his bodyguards had to say, he was simultaneously also thinking aboutsomething else.

The fact that he had gone unconscious for a full month and a half meant that the Dead Annies hadbeen much more potent than what he had initially anticipated.

Completely different from the attacks from powerful people like Christopher, Dead Annies were used asa medium to bring great mental harm to others.

It made him realize that despite training his physique to such a powerful state, his mental power wasstill far from catching up to his body’s capabilities. To think that he had almost died due to all theinjuries he had suffered from the Dead Annies….

Regardless, Gerald distinctly remembered witnessing something seconds before he had fainted backwhen he was still in the king of the ocean’s palace.

As he was clinging onto the eternal coffin back then, the lid of that large, black coffin had slid open andfollowing that, a black light shot out of it….novelbin

Whatever the case was, he was sure that he had brought the eternal coffin back with him. But whywere his guards still behaving like something was amiss?

Getting up from the bed, Gerald then headed to the room in the backyard that was currently beingheavily guarded by bodyguards.

The moment he opened the door, Gerald was immediately greeted by the sight of the eternal coffinright in the middle of the room.

Moving toward it, Gerald slowly slid the lid open… Only to find out that it was empty! The woman inwhite was missing!

Seeing that Gerald had now realized what the ‘problem’ was, the same guard from earlier walked up tohim before saying, “You see, Mr. Crawford, after successfully getting both you and the eternal coffin outof the water, we brought both of you back here. At the time, we were all pretty sure that the contents ofthe coffin remained inside. And we were right. However, it was about a week ago when… an incidenttook place. Even though she was still in the coffin the previous night, the next thing we knew, she haddisappeared, leaving only the coffin behind!”

“Despite how unimaginable it sounds, it’s the truth!” chimed in Lord Fenderson.

There was a reason why Lord Fenderson was still here. After returning to Halimark City, everything hadgone fairly well. However, just as he was about to return to the Salford Province, Gerald’s bodyguardssuddenly asked for Joshua, stating that Mr. Crawford was injured and was currently in a comatosestate!

Since they were still there anyway, they agreed to head to Montholm Island to visit the unconsciousman.

Regardless, despite the fact that Lord Fenderson was almost a hundred years old by now, everythingthat was happening was still pretty hard for him to believe.

Gerald himself was equally as surprised. Could the description of the person who had taken part in thefuneral procession back then really be true…? Was it truly possible for the woman in white to return tolife?

As Gerald carefully scanned through the eternal coffin, a Dead Annie placed right in the middle of thecoffin instantly caught his attention. The moment he saw that dreaded flower, he couldn’t help but takea step back.

Due to how much pain it had caused him, his body had now instinctively learned to fear it.

Quickly regaining his composure, Gerald realized that the flower had been placed quite neatly withinthe coffin, almost as though someone had left it there the moment the woman in white left.

Seeing that Gerald had noticed the flower, the bodyguard added in a shameful tone, “Unfortunately, Mr.Crawford, that nameless flower was the only thing that remained in the coffin!”

Stunned, Gerald then turned to look at the guard before saying, “You… You know of this flower?”

The flower was extremely rare, and Gerald had only managed to encounter it the first time back whenhe was on his grandfather’s island. Despite its beauty, Gerald had only regarded it as a simple flowerback then, so he hadn’t really paid it much attention.

Nevertheless, Gerald was this surprised now since a random bodyguard from his family—who didn’teven belong to the Soul Palace—actually knew about the flower.

“Oh! Well, Lord Fenderson was the one who gave me the details!”

“Hmm? Then I’m assuming you’ve seen this flower before, Lord Fenderson?” asked Gerald as heturned to look at Bryson.

“But of course I do! When I was much younger at around the age of twenty, I had a pretty goodrelationship with your grandfather… That year, your grandfather and I were still comrades-in-arms…Either way, he showed me this breed of flower back then and claimed that it was owned solely by yourfamily! When I asked him what its name was, however, he simply said that it was a nameless flower.

He then added that it was a weird and mysterious flower that was once a totem flower that belonged tosome mysterious country within the Western Regions,” explained Bryson.

“So what you’re saying is that not only did my grandpa have this breed of flower with him all the wayback then, but he also knew that it was mysterious?” asked Gerald, feeling shocked by the suddenrevelation.
