Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 988 For some reason, Gerald felt strange as he looked at that old man, and under that pressure, he evenfelt embarrassed and looked down.
“Hahaha!” The old man laughed loudly. “It seems like my grandson does indeed understand what hedid wrong!”
“Grandson?”
Gerald was stunned. “You’re…”
“You’ve not greeted me ever since you stepped in here. I’m your grandfather, Daryl, you silly boy!” Helaughed as he sat on a marble chair.
“You’re my grandfather?! I… I thought you went missing?”
Gerald had never heard anything about his grandparents ever since young, and his father had only toldhim that his grandfather had been missing for more than a decade.
They had looked for him, but there had been no news of him, and Gerald had always thought that hisgrandfather had already passed away. Never did he expect that his grandfather was alive, and he wasactually the owner of Colonel Island’s Soul Palace!
“You seem surprised?” Daryl looked at him happily.
“Yes, I am! I’m very surprised, Grandfather!”
Gerald finally understood why he had felt so strange earlier on.novelbin
“Have you always been on Colonel Island and established the Soul Palace?” Gerald asked in shock.
“Yes. I left the Crawfords, and I left everything to young Dylan back then. It has been 35 years!”
“Come, Gerald. Sit next to me and let me tell you some stories!” Daryl smiled.
Gerald sat on the marble chair.
“How many things do you know about your grandfather?” Daryl asked.
“I only know that you left my father 35 years ago after you both had a big fight. You gave up theposition as the family’s grandmaster and never came back. I tried asking my father about you, but hedidn’t say much!”
“It seems like Dylan did not tell you anything about the picture of the sun!”
“The picture of the sun?”
“Yes. It is a confidential picture that is passed down from our ancestors, and the content of it containsgreat knowledge. The Crawfords have always been so powerful and wealthy because we possess theguidance of the picture of the sun. But then, I realized that the picture of the sun predicted that within50 years, the Crawfords would be gone forever, and the picture of the sun has never lied!” Daryl said.
“I’ve heard about that from my father, and he said that within these few years, the Crawfords might endup bankrupt or dead!” Gerald recalled what his father had told him.
“Yes, that was what I told him too. I’ve always been searching for an answer, and hopefully one day, Imight understand what the picture of the sun was trying to say. Until 35 years ago, I finally found a newanswer, and I even got a method of survival that is hundred years old, even before the Crawfords
existed. Before your father, every generation of the Crawfords knew a thing or two about martial arts.Your dad broke the chain, and that is why I’ve never liked him!” Daryl said.
“Is that why you established the Soul Palace?” Gerald finally knew more secrets about what hadhappened.
“Yes. I’ve been doing my research, and I found this isolated location to build my reputation. I evengathered some powers to protect my family from being banished!”
“Gerald, you’re very lucky to have people helping you train your skills. That is why I was very happywhen my people reported back to me!”
“Does that mean that you knew my master, Finnley? Is he one of your people too?” Gerald asked.
Daryl shook his head. “I don’t know him. However, I did some research on his background, and I foundsomething that surprised me. My informants are all around the world, and there is nothing that Iwouldn’t know about, but your master, Finnley Quick, gave me a hard time. I believe Finnley Quick isnot even his real name! One thing for sure is that he is a great and powerful master, his skills are farmore excellent than mine!”
