Chapter 2103

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2103 Still blushing slightly, Fujiko then nodded as she replied, “… R- right, right… You head to bed early toothen…”

Though the night had been a dangerous one, she couldn’t help but feel pleased after hearing whatGerald had said. Regardless, she was then promptly accompanied back to her room’s entrance beforeshe finally parted ways with Gerald…

Gerald himself removed his coat and poured himself a glass of cold water the second he returned tohis room. Once he was seated on a chair, he began thinking about the two assassins.

Since his trip to Japan had been highly confidential, he doubted that they had been sent by his oldenemies. However, those two were able to address him by name. With that in mind, whoever it waswho had sent them, they had definitely done their homework before setting the assassination plan intomotion…

‘But who could it be…?’ Gerald thought to himself as he puffed on his cigarette.

After thinking about it for a while, Gerald managed to come up with a few individuals who lived in Japanwho possibly had old grudges against him. Even so, no matter how much he stretched it, all of themdidn’t really seem to have the balls to confront him. Besides, it’s not like they would even know that hehad come to Japan.

With that in mind, the assassins must’ve been sent by individuals whom he had offended in his mostrecent trip here… From what he could gather, that included the special forces soldiers from Yanam, theKanagawas, and the Hanyus…

Though he included the soldiers from Yanam into the equation, they were the most improbable of thebunch. After all, none of them had managed to find any evidence that he was the one responsible for

Adler’s disappearance. Besides, he was pretty sure that the Yanam military had already been scaredout of their wits by him.

Gerald, for one, believed that Carter who had acted so cowardly before him back then wouldn’t dare tosend assassins after him, unless, of course, that man didn’t wish to be the acting leader of the militaryanymore…

Regardless, that boiled down the list to the Kanagawas and the Hanyus. Though Gerald’s money wason the Kanagawas…

Shaking his head, Gerald decided not to think about it for the moment. After all, he believed in Takuya’sinterrogation skills, so all he needed to do now was to wait till morning to finally find out who had sentthose two assassins. With his mind made up, he then took a cold bath before hitting the hay…

When he got up at dawn, Gerald quickly prepared himself for the day before heading out to see howTakuya’s interrogation had gone. Upon opening the door, however, Gerald was startled to see twoFutaba guards standing guard right outside his room.

“… What exactly is the meaning of this…?” asked Gerald as he scratched his cheek.

“Ah, good morning, Mr. Crawford… Well, since those two men attempted to assassinate you yesterday,the patriarch ordered us to guard over your room. With that in mind, you don’t have to worry about anysneak attacks!” replied one of the men.

From how tired they both looked, it was obvious that they had been standing there for the longest time.With that in mind, Gerald simply waved his hand before saying, “There’s no need to guard over me.Now hurry off and get some rest.”

Though he didn’t say it, Gerald had a feeling that if he relied on these two to protect him, he could’veeasily been killed over ten times before they noticed a thing!

Either way, upon hearing that, the other man yawned as he replied, “Unfortunately, we can’t justdisobey the patriarch’s orders!”

Understanding that they could’ve gotten a good night’s rest had it not been for Takuya’s orders, Geraldsimply shook his head while saying, “Look, just go. If the patriarch gets angry about you leaving, justtell him that I was the one who told you to leave.”

Since Gerald believed that these two wouldn’t be able to protect him anyway, the fact that they werewasting all their energy here made him feel slightly bad for them.

Regardless, upon hearing that, the duo immediately bowed while declaring, “T-thank you, Mr.Crawford!”

Following that, they swiftly left for their bedrooms…novelbin
