Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1611 It was late that night—within a secret manor in Yanam—when Gerald and his family could be seencheerfully eating while talking with each other.

Even Yoel—whom Gerald’s mother was currently supporting—found himself smiling due to how joyousthe reunion was. It truly had been ages since they had last gotten together like this…

Even so, Gerald couldn’t seem to feel truly happy about all this. After all, in the end, poor Yoel still hadhis eyes gouged out and his tongue snipped! His parents no longer had functioning legs either, and asfor his sister… He couldn’t even imagine all the suffering she had gone through while waiting for him…

To Gerald, all this had only happened due to him not doing his best to keep his family protected. Withthat in mind, he blamed himself for all their suffering, and all that guilt prevented him from enjoyinghimself at the moment…

If only he had made a few more precautions, Yoel would’ve surely been able to live both normally andhappily like any regular person… However, Yoel had actively tried to defend his family, and as a result,he ended up in such a pitiful state… It truly made Gerald feel like he had failed his brother…

With all these thoughts plaguing his mind, Gerald knew that he would only be able to rest easy once hetook down the Quantocks. That was the only way Gerald was going to be able to fully avenge hisfamily…

Gerald’s train of thought was cut short when his smiling mother turned to look at him before saying,“Gerald… You seem a little quiet tonight…”

“She’s right! Our family’s finally reunited again, you know? Be a bit more joyous!” added Dylan.

Upon hearing that, Gerald instantly forced a smile to hide his troubles.

A short while later, however, he took in a deep breath before turning to look at his family withdetermined eyes…

“…Mom, Dad, Jessica, and Yoel… From today onward, I’ll never allow any of you to suffer any morepain…! I’ll protect each and every one of you no matter the costs!”

“Well said! We believe in you, Gerald!” replied Dylan as he nodded with a smile.novelbin

With that said, the laughing and talking continued late into the night…

Eventually, Gerald’s parents and Yoel headed off first to retire for the night. Watching as his parents ledYoel away, Gerald then sat in the garden with Jessica to continue talking for a bit.

“I wonder if you remember the time when you first realized that you were a rich heir, Gerald…” askedJessica with a smile as she stared at the shining stars in the night sky.

Smiling subtly, Gerald then replied, “Of course I do! Thinking back, all of you were truly experts athiding all that from me! Do you even have any idea how long I suffered from how poor I was?”

“We did all that for a reason though! By making you experience all that, we had hoped that it wouldmake you strong enough to eventually be able to continue carrying our family’s torch! And lo andbehold, look at you now! With you to rely on, dad can finally retire from being our family’s backbone…Honestly, by this point, I don’t really care that much about you making a huge impact on society…

Instead, I just wish that our family can live together cozily!” said Jessica with words that came from herheart.

Turning to look at his sister, Gerald then lowered his head before replying in an apologetic tone, “…Youmust have suffered terribly while you were captured, sister… I’m sorry for being so careless! Had Imade more precautions, neither of you would have ended up in such pitiful states!”

Upon hearing that, Jessica gently patted Gerald’s head before saying, “None of us blame you for allthis, Gerald… After all, you couldn’t have possibly anticipated all this to happen! I understand that youbadly wish to protect us since we kept protecting you back then, but understand that you’re alreadydoing a good job! After all, we’re all together again now, aren’t we? With that said, let bygones bebygones and let’s enjoy our time together as a family to the fullest!”

“…I understand, sister…” muttered Gerald as he nodded in response…

At that very moment, a dark silhouette suddenly dashed past the forest right outside the manor…
