Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 927

It was the next night in the Crawford family mansion in Northbay when a butler came running while shouting, “Sir! I

bring good news, sir!”

At the time, Dylan was reading in his study room. Permitting his butler to enter, Dylan then put his glasses 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 go against our family

in the past six months, we’ve just received news from a reliable source that Jett has gone 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 also constantly

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 the fact that Jett

was a constant annoyance to their family. So annoying, in fact, that the Crawfords would often 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 night and

transferred them elsewhere! The Crawford family can finally take a breather now!” said the butler with 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 Kort will 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 the side.

“Kort’s no fool, after all. He knows very well how skilled Jett is, and he’s also well aware that even the Crawford

family’s top guards wouldn’t be able to lay a finger on him! I’m sure that Kort also understands that our family

wouldn’t ever dare to do such a thing in the first place! Since you said that he withdrew his men who were keeping

an eye on us, that obviously means that they know we aren’t the threat! Better yet, that means that they’re having

their own major problem to deal with!” replied Dylan 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 as he watched

Dylan take his cell phone out.

“Still, whoever it was that captured Jett, within Mayberry City of all places, must be an extremely skilled master… A

master above all masters, even! Fynn!” said Dylan with a sudden serious expression on his face 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 the master who

kidnapped him. If we do manage to hire or get him to help our family, then we might finally have a chance to

defeat Kort! You’re free to use any means you can think of to search for him!” ordered Dylan as he slammed his

free hand against the table.

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

Just as the butler was about to leave, Dylan called out, “Wait! Tell the eldest lady, madam, Lyra, and the 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 Dylan looking this

happy.

Ever since Gerald’s disappearance about six months ago, the Crawfords hadn’t had a proper family dinner

together. Even Yulia had hardly spent any time around Dylan during that period since he always locked himself up in

his study room.

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

“What happened, dad? What’s the occasion? Did you manage to find out where Gerald is?” asked Jessica 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 of sorts

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 to help us, it

doesn’t matter since his actions still greatly benefited the Crawford family!” replied Dylan with a smile.

“But who could that master have been? Are you aware of any other secret societies or families aside from the

Moldells, dad?”

“If there are any, I’m not aware of them. Regardless, under these circumstances, I feel that our family is in dire

need of such a powerful master to help deal with the Moldells. If we do indeed find him, I’m willing 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 Paradise Province.
