Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1067
“This man saved us, Mr. Lockhart!” said Giya as she slowly got off Gerald’s back.
“I’ve told you time and again not to call me that, Giya… Just call me Wynn… Calling me Mr. Lockhart feels so
strange!” replied Wynn.
Choosing not to reply to that, she then turned to look at Gerald before saying, “…Anyway, we still don’t know your
name, so… Could you please share it with us?”
For some odd reason, Giya had felt extremely close to this person from the moment she first met him. She couldn’t
tell why either. It almost felt unreal how close he felt to her.
Aside from him, it had been the longest time since she had last felt such a way toward any guy. If she had to put the
feeling into words, it felt somewhat similar to meeting a long-lost relative again.

“There’s no need for that, I just helped with a small matter!” replied Gerald as he further lowered his brim before
heading upstairs.
Seeing that, the bespectacled girl pouted slightly.
“Who even is he, Meredith? Why’s he wearing a hat and mask in bright daylight? And more importantly, who does
he think he is?” scoffed Wynn scornfully.
After hearing how Meredith had talked to Gerald, he was certain that the masked man had saved the girls like some
kind of superman. Wynn himself had been waiting for a chance to do such a thing. Now that someone had beat him
to it, he was feeling both nervous and envious toward Gerald.
“How could you talk bad about our lifesaver, Wynn?” replied Meredith, upset.
“I’m just saying the truth! I’m sure he’s just putting up an act!” replied Wynn.
“Both of you, stop fighting! The only thing that matters now is that the girls are both fine! Also, since both of you
are now back, go ahead and grab some food. We’ll be heading into the desert once the Master of the Desert
arrives!” said their leader.
Upon hearing that, everyone fell silent.
There were over twenty people in Giya’s group, with thirteen of them being men and the rest being women. The
group itself was there to conduct research in the desert, with Meredith and Giya acting as reporters.
Wynn, on the other hand, was the son of the research’s sponsor. Being both rich and powerful, he had fallen for
Giya from the moment he first saw her at an event. Since then, he had constantly been trying to win her heart
over, even going so far as to come along on this research trip just to continue wooing her.
As their leader returned to his own seat, he said, “Speaking of him, I wonder why he isn’t here yet… How odd!
Regardless, we won’t be able to survive in the desert for long without him. Some say that the Master of the Desert
knows the desert like the back of his hand since he grew up there.”
While the other members of the group began discussing it, the sounds of bells—which were common for camels to

Eventually, over twenty camel-pulled carts came to a halt in front of the hotel.
Standing at the entrance, a tanned old man with a contrasting white beard and a face full of wrinkles shouted,
“Alright, let’s go!”
He was the one guiding all of the camels, and after hearing his shout, almost everyone in the hotel headed out.
Aside from the researchers, there were also other tourists who had hired the Master of the Desert for both his carts
and his guiding service. Once everyone had mounted their bags and bottles onto the camels, the Master of the
Desert would begin transporting them across the desert.
“Come on, Giya. I paid him extra since you injured your leg. We can get on the cart together with Professor Yale so
that we don’t have to walk!” said Wynn as he turned to look at Giya.
However, when he noticed how hesitant she was and how she kept looking up at the second floor, he immediately
became jealous and added, “…Don’t tell me you’re waiting for that dude, Giya…”
“I-I’m not! We don’t even know each other!” replied Giya.
“Good to know. Regardless, we should get going now. Here, I’ll help you up!”
“It’s fine, Meredith can do that!”
