Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 927 It was the next night in the Crawford family mansion in Northbay when a butler came running whileshouting, “Sir! I bring good news, sir!”

At the time, Dylan was reading in his study room. Permitting his butler to enter, Dylan then put hisglasses down before rubbing his brows and saying, “Go on…”

“It’s regarding KortMoldell! While both Kort and Jett have been doing everything they could to goagainst our family in the past six months, we’ve just received news from a reliable source that Jett hasgone missing!”

“What? Jett’s missing?” said Dylan as he stood up in surprise.

Jett was Kort’s third son who had slowly been building his power in the past six months. He was alsoconstantly being a pain in the ass, intentionally causing trouble for the Crawfords whenever he could.

Though Dylan only saw him as a pest who didn’t need to be taken too seriously, it didn’t change thefact that Jett was a constant annoyance to their family. So annoying, in fact, that the Crawfords wouldoften feel worn out just having to deal with him over and over again.

To think that the thorn to their family’s side had now gone missing!

“Him going missing isn’t even the best news, sir! You see, Kort’s withdrew most of his men last nightand transferred them elsewhere! The Crawford family can finally take a breather now!” said the butlerwith joy.

Dylan himself nodded as a smile formed on his face.

“However… As I recall, Jett is Kort’s favorite son… Now that he’s missing, do you suppose that Kortwill suspect that our family is involved in the matter?” asked the butler with a frown on his face.

“Of course he won’t!” said Dylan as he closed the book he had been reading before placing it to theside.

“Kort’s no fool, after all. He knows very well how skilled Jett is, and he’s also well aware that even theCrawford family’s top guards wouldn’t be able to lay a finger on him! I’m sure that Kort alsounderstands that our family wouldn’t ever dare to do such a thing in the first place! Since you said thathe withdrew his men who were keeping an eye on us, that obviously means that they know we aren’tthe threat! Better yet, that means that they’re having their own major problem to deal with!” repliedDylan as he heaved a huge sigh of relief.

“You’re absolutely right, sir! It seems I was simply overthinking things!” said the butler with a smile ashe watched Dylan take his cell phone out.

“Still, whoever it was that captured Jett, within Mayberry City of all places, must be an extremely skilledmaster… A master above all masters, even! Fynn!” said Dylan with a sudden serious expression on hisface as the call finally connected.

“How may I assist, sir?”

“I’m now giving you a secret task. I want you to investigate Jett’s disappearance and try locating themaster who kidnapped him. If we do manage to hire or get him to help our family, then we might finallyhave a chance to defeat Kort! You’re free to use any means you can think of to search for him!” orderedDylan as he slammed his free hand against the table.

“Understood! Preparations for the investigation will begin immediately!” replied Fynn as he ended thecall.

Just as the butler was about to leave, Dylan called out, “Wait! Tell the eldest lady, madam, Lyra, andthe rest of the family that we’re having dinner together tonight!”

“…Yes, sir!” said the butler, beaming with joy. After all, it had been a long time since he saw Dylanlooking this happy.

Ever since Gerald’s disappearance about six months ago, the Crawfords hadn’t had a proper familydinner together. Even Yulia had hardly spent any time around Dylan during that period since he alwayslocked himself up in his study room.novelbin

When dinnertime came, Jessica and Lyra were all smiles when they saw Dylan feeling so happy afterso long.

“What happened, dad? What’s the occasion? Did you manage to find out where Gerald is?” askedJessica as soon as she got the chance to.

Shaking his head dejectedly, he then replied, “…No… We still haven’t been able to locate him…”

Upon hearing that, everyone instantly turned slightly gloomy.

“…However! Even if that’s the case, today is still a good day! After all, Jett’s gone missing! A tragedy ofsorts occurred at Mountain Top Villa and all but one of Jett’s subordinates there were killed!”announced Dylan.

“What? That b*stard’s missing?” said Jessica as she stood up and laughed.

“Indeed! Some master has kidnapped Jett, and regardless of whether he did it for his own reasons or tohelp us, it doesn’t matter since his actions still greatly benefited the Crawford family!” replied Dylan witha smile.

“But who could that master have been? Are you aware of any other secret societies or families asidefrom the Moldells, dad?”

“If there are any, I’m not aware of them. Regardless, under these circumstances, I feel that our family isin dire need of such a powerful master to help deal with the Moldells. If we do indeed find him, I’mwilling to offer a third of our family’s assets just as an incentive for the master to aid us!”

In response, Jessica and the others nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, southwest of the Paradise Region, a bus was slowly making its way toward the ParadiseProvince.
