Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 798

While Gerald worked tirelessly day after day, his efforts proved futile, even as the tenth day passed. He had exhausted every tactic he could think of, yet no sign of the existence of the ship could be found.

“Where exactly are you, Mila... I.. I can't believe that you just left me!” gerald said as he pulled his hair in despair.

At this point, he constantly experienced flashbacks of the moments he spent with Mila. She now knows more than ever that Mila has gone to great lengths just to be with her.

On the eleventh morning, Gerald sat on the beach in a daze, unsure of what else he could do to search for the ship.

As he continued racking his brain, his phone started ringing. It was Jessica's phone call.

"Good morning brother!"

Hearing her voice, Gerald couldn't help but smile thinly as he replied, “Good morning, sister. Have you returned to Northbay safely? How is he doing?”

Two days ago, Jessica returned to Hong Kong to accompany Gerald after learning of Mila's disappearance. On that occasion, Jessica had told Gerald about what Mila experienced while in Hong Kong.

However, as something is going on in the family, Jessica must return to Northbay soon.

“I'm fine, although for now don't talk about me. I'm sure you know that our family is having a family meeting tomorrow ... Since you haven't returned in twenty-two years, Father asked you to attend the meeting this time. Besides, he also wants to talk about something with you!” answer jessica.

Hearing that, Gerald threw a rock into the sea before nodding.

"…very good. I'll be back tomorrow then!”

The next day, Gerald arrives on a large island in Northbay belonging to the Crawford family. On top of it, there was a building so majestic and huge that it looked almost like a castle.

As a large family with several branches, at least several thousand people were expected to attend the meeting. It was not that it was a problem as the island could easily accommodate tens of thousands of guests.

As Fynn takes Gerald around, Gerald must be a little anxious. After all, this was the first time Gerald had returned to 'home'. Moreover, this new place was much grander and grander, even when compared to his sister island!

Since this was the first time the Crawford family's young master had returned, Fynn wanted to immediately report Gerald's arrival to his parents. However, they seem to be busy chatting with other family members.

It was no surprise to Gerald to see his father so busy because after all he was his master. Moreover, there were already many people there back then.

Therefore, Gerald replied, “There is no need to rush to report my arrival. I'll just wait until my parents finish greeting the guests. You go ahead and deal with what you have to, Fynn. I'll go find my sister in the meantime!”

Hearing that, Fynn nodded before running to take care of anything else.

After calling his sister, he told her to wait for him there, stating that he would hurry as soon as possible.

Now bored for a moment, Gerald simply sat down by the side and looked out to sea as he slowly entered a dazed state again.

“Tell Bethany, didn't you say you were looking for someone to help pick up a tennis ball? There was a silly looking man there who had been sitting still for a while! Why don't we ask him to do it?” said a girl who seemed to be about eighteen years old.

The girl was part of a group with other girls of her age as well as some older ones. All of them were wearing tennis clothes, and some of them were still playing in pairs when the girl asked her question.

Since normally only the elders of the family would step in at such times, juniors like them would take the opportunity to have fun and eat as much as possible.

"Sure, why not? Call her!" bethany replied as she swung her racket over her shoulder before pointing at Gerald who had not yet escaped her shock.
