Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1792
Gerald had deliberately avoided her question so that she wouldn’t ask too much.
Getting the hint, the woman then nodded before quickly leaving the cave.
Seeing that she was now gone, Gerald quickly opened the letter and began reading through it…
‘Congratulations on finding the first hostage, Mr. Crawford! Now hurry along and go find where the next hostage is!
There’s no money hidden here!’
After reading through the letter, Gerald couldn’t help but frown. Another ancient poem…? The culprit really enjoyed
using ancient poems as clues, didn’t he?
Regardless, the hint this time was pretty straightforward. Since the poem included the word ‘money’, it was only
fair to assume that the next hostage could be found in a bank.

such a short amount of time.
Realizing that he wasn’t going to get anything done just by speculating here alone, Gerald immediately left the
area, intent on studying the clue with Rey back at the office.
The second he got into his car, however, he immediately received a call from an unknown number.
“It appears that you’ve rescued the first hostage, Mr. Crawford. I’m guessing you’ve found the purple envelope as
well, then?”
While Gerald could tell that the speaker was a male, his voice was weird, to say the least. Whatever the case was,
Gerald then retorted, “I have, also f*ck you. You won’t get away with all of this! I’ll make sure I capture you if it’s the
last thing I do!”
Following that, Gerald immediately hung up, not wanting to waste his breath on this strange man.
With that, Gerald then drove Juno’s car back to his office. Since his own car had previously been blown up, he could
only use hers for the moment…
Regardless, upon entering his office, Gerald was instantly greeted by the sight of Rey and two others inside.
Seeing that Gerald was back, Rey took the chance to ask, “Mr. Crawford, you’re back! Where did you head off so
early in the morning?”
Since all three of them hadn’t seen Gerald all morning, they all had a hunch that he had probably gone off to do
some personal investigating.
Either way, despite Rey’s question, Gerald simply ordered, “Rey, I need you to immediately start investigating the
phrase, ‘There’s no money hidden here’!”
Not even bothering to ask why, Rey immediately headed to his computer to get to work as he replied, “Loud and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmclear!”
While Rey was used to not getting immediate answers from Gerald, Juno wasn’t. With that in mind, she quickly
walked up to him before asking, “What’s wrong, Gerald…?”
Hearing that, Gerald retrieved the purple envelope from his pocket before handing it to Juno.
After reading through it, she momentarily appeared shocked, though that was to be expected.
What Gerald hadn’t expected, however, was the fact that Juno would suddenly say, “…I… I think I know where the
letter is pointing to! If my guess is correct, it should be referring to a bank or a tax building… And there’s only one
place I can think of where both buildings can be found close together!”
Upon hearing that, Gerald immediately knew the area Juno was referring to. With that in mind, he patted Rey’s
shoulder before saying, “You heard her. Let’s head there right now!”
With that, Gerald and Rey bolted out of the office before speedily driving toward the tax building Juno had talked
about.
Since Juno’s guess made total sense, Gerald had a feeling that the second hostage was definitely going to be
there…
