Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2110
Watching as the two assassin groups continued pursuing Gerald and Fujiko on-screen, Ryugu couldn’t help but
wonder why the duo had suddenly chosen to deviate off the highway.
Due to all the research the Hanyus had done while planning their initial assassination of Fujiko, Ryugu knew for a
fact that Fujiko was supposed to be heading to the location where the special forces competition was going to be
held. After all, where else could they be going? With that in mind, why were they suddenly going off path…?
Sitting at the back, Takeshi realized that he wasn’t the only one who found this odd since shortly after, one of the
subordinates who was on loudspeaker asked, “Could we have made a wrong guess as to where they were headed
to…?”
After a brief pause, Ryugu simply laughed coldly before replying, “I don’t even care anymore! Just follow them till
the end of hell!”
Who cared if they were heading to the special forces competition, some outing, or even someplace to pay respect
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto their ancestors? The location wasn’t what mattered. No, what mattered was that Ryugu killed Gerald while he
could!
Ryugu knew that it was going to be much more difficult to pull off the assassination once the duo returned to the
Futaba manor, so this was the prime opportunity to get the job done…! This could very well be his only chance of
rescuing Endo and Izumi as well…!
Whatever the case was, upon hearing Ryugu’s order, Takeshi cleared his throat before yelling, “Didn’t you hear
what the team leader said? Keep your eyes peeled and don’t you dare lose sight of that SUV! If you fail to do
something simple like that, don’t return to the family!”
“U-understood!” replied the subordinates who were still hot on Gerald’s heels…
Moving back to Gerald, once he was about six miles from the dead volcano, he made sure to slow down a little.
After all, he couldn’t kill them if they lost him.
As Gerald drove on, he couldn’t help but ask, “So… What kind of disputes did the Futabas have with the Hanyus in
recent years?”
“I’m… not too sure about that, actually… After all, I’ve mostly spent my time in the military in the past few years…
It certainly didn’t help that during the rare occasions I returned home, dad refused to tell me a single thing
regarding our family’s affairs. However, I do remember him saying that our family had barely contacted the Hanyus
ever since he became the patriarch… I, for one, see no reason why he would lie,” replied Fujiko as she shook her
head, realizing just how out of touch she was with her family’s affairs. It seemed that she had been too focused on
surviving and fighting for honor in the military this entire time…
“I see… Do you think he refrained from saying anything due to some concerns of his?” asked Gerald who had
witnessed other families doing the same things in the past. In the other family’s situation, the party involved didn’t
detail the entire situation to him, which resulted in them facing even more trouble than necessary…
Regardless, Fujiko then shook her head while saying, “I don’t think so…”
Fujiko, for one, knew her father’s personality well. Takuya simply wasn’t the kind of person who held grudges
against other families. Even if a dispute came up, he would simply tolerate it for the sake of protecting everyone’s
interest…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I wonder about that…” muttered Gerald to himself.
While Gerald was well aware of the family feud between the Futabas and the Hanyus, he didn’t believe that the
Hanyus would just send assassins over to kill Fujiko without good reason. The problem was, he couldn’t tell what
their motive was. Still, he was sure the Hanyus had their reasons. After all, why else would they be so persistent in
causing trouble for both him and Fujiko?
“… Though you say that, I don’t really see my dad having any reason to be in conflict with the Hanyus…” replied
Fujiko who had heard Gerald’s mutter.
“While that may be true, you haven’t put the rest of the Futabas into consideration. Who knows whether any of
them have any conflicts or exchanges of interests with the Hanyus?” said Gerald with a wry smile.
Upon hearing that, Fujiko instantly frowned as she asked, “… Could you perhaps be referring to Grandpa Masura
and Suke…?”
Though Fujiko hadn’t been home for the longest, she was still aware enough about things like these. The fact that
Masura had told her father to step down from his post right in front of her that night certainly made him a prime
suspect..
