Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1407
“…What? There was another person observing me this entire time…?!” replied Gerald fearfully.
As it turned out, his university life hadn’t been as peaceful as he remembered it to be. Quite thecontrary, in fact! To think that he had been closely monitored by others his entire time! Not only that, buthe had just found out that people like Peter had apparently also been keeping a close eye on hisobservers!
Truth be told, Gerald had found Peter to be quite odd from the moment he woke up after being savedby him. After all, Peter knew him well, and it was definitely no coincidence that Peter had been presentto save him that night.novelbin
Hell, after getting along better with Peter, Gerald had found that the man even seemed to have a goodgrasp on his temperament and characteristics.
While Gerald had occasionally wanted to ask Peter about that, every time he led the conversation inthat direction, Peter made it very clear that he didn’t want to talk about it.
Following that, things got busy and Gerald didn’t have a chance to ponder about it again up till thispoint. Due to Peter’s slip of his tongue, it reminded Gerald to try his luck asking him why he knew somuch about Gerald again. He truly hadn’t expected to finally get such a shocking answer today.
“Regardless, I found out that that person had already been keeping an eye on you—for who knowshow long—by the time you left Serene County to start your freshman year. While he laid low for a while,he started appearing more frequently after your identity was exposed.”
“Unsure what he was truly after and worried that he would do bad things to you, I—in turn—beganobserving him. You know, for convenience, I even disguised myself like this and occasionally snuck into
the back kitchen of your university’s cafeteria under the guise of a worker there! Haha!” explained Peteras he revealed a wry smile.
“You even snuck into my university’s cafeteria? But I’ve never come across you!” replied Gerald, failingto recall ever meeting Peter before this.
Quite honestly, Gerald was in disbelief that such a remarkable man had been watching over him fromhis university’s cafeteria this entire time!
“Of course you wouldn’t have met me! There wasn’t any reason for you to pay attention to such arandom person! Besides, I mostly remained in the back kitchen, and even if I went out, I made sure todo so sneakily!” said Peter.
“…I see. Speaking of which, you said you found out that he was stalking me when I first starteduniversity… Does that mean you had your reasons to be there as well? Also, who exactly are you,sir…?” asked Gerald, feeling that now was his best bet of getting the truth from Peter.
“Where to even begin… Truth be told, I hadn’t planned on reuniting with you till I managed to identifyyour stalker… Regardless, I have a feeling that he’s the one responsible for all the current incidents! Ialso suspect that he’s already noticed that I’ve been stalking him in return! You know, despite keeping aclose eye on him for so many years, I never even told Jasmine about my observations on him for fearthat that information would somehow get leaked to the stalker. By this point, however, I feel that hidingall this is no longer necessary,” replied Peter as he turned to look at the curious Gerald.
Following that, Peter placed his hand near his ears… Before slowly peeling off what seemed to be amask made of human skin!
Despite the fact that Peter was still a middle-aged man, his appearance could only be described asbeing extremely handsome.
Even so, his good looks wasn’t the reason why Gerald’s eyes were now so wide open. No, Gerald wasnow trembling because he recognized that face anywhere.
“…S-second uncle…?” stuttered the bewildered Gerald. The man’s appearance bore a strikingresemblance to his uncle in the photograph that he had!
As Gerald continued staring in disbelief at his uncle, Peter replied, “Now you finally know who I am,Gerald…”
“…So it really is you, Second uncle…! But… But didn’t you…?” muttered Gerald, his breath gettingincreasingly heavy.
“I’ll take my time explaining all this on a later date, Gerald. For now, let’s focus on finding out where mybrother and sister-in-law are. We still have to look into the incident regarding the pledge of the holywater as well. To think that I still haven’t found his motivations yet, even after he’s kidnapped our entirefamily…! While I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried for them, I have a gut feeling that everyone from ourfamily will remain safe for now, or at the very least, they won’t be in danger of being killed just yet.While his aim is still unknown, I’m certain that it isn’t to just kill people off!” replied Peter as he calmlyanalyzed what they knew.
Hearing that, Gerald looked at his uncle rather excitedly before nodding firmly and asking, “…You’reright! Speaking of which, have you ever fought against my stalker throughout his many years observingme, uncle? And do you have any clues about him…?”
