Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1994 “Either way, there’s no helping it. That person won fair and square, and we just have to accept thatreplied Tanner as he consoled his daughter, knowing full well that in the world of martial artscompetitions, nobody could remain at the top forever…
Though Yalinda looked like she wanted to refute, she finally realized that there was a terrible scar onTanner’s arm! With that in mind, she quickly asked, “Huh? When did you get injured, dad? Whathappened?”
Hearing that, Tanner simply chuckled indifferently as he waved his good hand and said, “It’s just ascratch! Regardless, I got the wound from some of Mount Tygress’s bandits on my way back!”
“Those bandits? They’re really getting more and more chaotic by the day! Either way, do considerincreasing the number of men with you while you’re out delivering things! If you don’t, I swear I’m goingto start coming with you as extra protection!” mumbled Yalinda after a short pause.
Simply patting his daughter’s head in response, Tanner then dotingly said, “It’s alright. Besides, I’drather my daughter remained safe.”
At that moment, a guard’s voice could be heard anxiously calling out from outside, “C-captain Juans!”
Raising a slight brow, Tanner then walked out before asking, “Yes? What’s all the commotion about?”“T-there are two men out there who wish to meet you! Though they claimed that they saved your lifeearlier, I wanted to make sure with you first before letting them in!” replied the guard.
“Oh? Where are they now? Lead me to them!” ordered the surprised Tanner.
Nodding in response, the guard then began jogging over to the door, with Tanner following closelybehind. Curious, Yalinda tailed along as well. After all, what kind of person was capable enough to save
her father?
Either way, once they arrived at the door, Tanner’s eyes immediately widened. As it turned out, Geraldand Yale truly were standing—with their backs facing him—at his front door!
“Mr. Crawford! What a pleasure!” declared the excited Tanner.
Tanner, for one, had earlier assumed that Gerald would never come over, causing him to be ratherbummed out by that. It certainly explained why he was so glad to see Gerald at his doorstep.
Hearing his voice, the duo then turned around… and the second their faces were in view, Yalinda wasso shocked that she couldn’t help but point at Gerald while exclaiming, “I-it’s you!”novelbin
Gerald himself was quick to point back as he incredulously yelled, “So it’s you again!”
Seeing this exchange, the confused Tanner was prompted to ask, “You… know Mr. Crawford, Yalinda…2?”
“Yeah! He… He’s the one who defeated me earlier!” yelled Yalinda, her voice getting increasinglyangry. Upon hearing that, Tanner immediately laughed out loud.
As it turned out, the one who had taken her out was Gerald! It all made sense now! After all, Geraldhad ungodly strength!
Whatever the case was, Tanner quickly cleared his throat before saying in a serious tone, “…Now, now,Yalinda, let’s not be rude! Remember, Mr. Crawford is still the one who saved my life! Had it not beenfor him, I would’ve perished by now!”
When she heard that, Yalinda simply snorted angrily before leaving the scene, not wanting to seeGerald any longer than she needed to.
Worried that Gerald would get displeased by his daughter’s behavior, Tanner then turned to look at theyouth before saying, “Please don’t take her words and actions to heart, Mr. Crawford… My daughter’sjust like that!”
“Don’t worry about it, Captain Juans… She’s only behaving that way since I defeated her, so! hopeyou’ll forgive me for that!” replied Gerald with a subtle smile, feeling slightly embarrassed…
