Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1078

By the time the three of them came out of the ancient well, it was already late at night and the moon was already high in the sky. Gerald then took the two girls back to the dilapidated building.

Upon arriving there, they saw that the crowd had regrouped. Professor Yale and other researchers were there. They had previously returned to the building once they realized that there was no way they could catch up to Gerald.

In addition to the two deaths, the only other person seriously injured was Wynn, and he also suffered from a high fever. Although the others managed to be fine, they all felt equally uneasy from fear.

Now that Gerald was here, however, they could all finally rest a little easier after going through so much today.

While the others rested, Gerald himself remained awake. After lighting the bonfire, he continued to guard the others while making sure to throw the firewood into the warm fire from time to time.

Meredith and Giya, on the other hand, stayed awake as well. Their eyes both peeled off as they continued to stare at Gerald — who was currently sitting near the entrance of — for some time.

Under the moonlight, his tall and muscular silhouette gave them a sense of peace and safety.

Finally, Meredith rolled to the side to look at Giya before whispering, “...You also did not sleep, Giya?”

“Not at all..” whispered Giya back.

“Say, ever since we woke up in that monster nest, I noticed that you were constantly staring at Xadrian meredith asked, a hint of jealousy reflected in her voice.

“...No...Of course not...” replied Giya.

After all, the person she liked was Gerald and Giya knew for sure that she would never be able to forget him for the rest of her life. While it is true that Xadrian and Gerald look very similar, Xadrian is not the person he really loves! At least that's what Giya keeps reminding herself of.

However, Giya could not deny that she could not take her eyes off him. Both Xadrian and Gerald really look very similar!

"Listen, I only look at her often because she looks so much like Gerald!" added Giya in a soft tone.

"Well, they might look alike, but remember he's not Gerald!" meredith whispered in return.

Giya was well aware that deep down, she felt a little jealous when she asked that question.

"I'm ready. While I have met many, many handsome and great men before, I have never met someone who could impress me like Xadrian! I've waited years for such a person to appear.. Because of this feeling, I believe that I finally found the right person for me!” answer Meredith.

“...So,” said Giya, feeling a mixture of emotions in her heart. He could only feel annoyed after hearing that.

“So... Since we are both good sisters, I want to ask you something, Giya. Since Xadrian is not the right person for you, is it alright for me to try to chase after him? After all, I've waited so long until my heart was moved by someone!” meredith whispered as she gently squeezed Giya's hand.

Giya had absolutely no idea how to describe her feelings after hearing that.

While he assures himself that Gerald and Xadrian—although looking very similar—is not the same person, inevitably he feels that Xadrian's subtle behavior is also too similar to Gerald's.

This was especially noticeable when he had just woken up in that monster's nest before. At that moment, he remembered Gerald calling his name.

Although he did not know if it was all just an illusion, he was sure he had heard Gerald's voice! For more solid evidence, when Xadrian blushed earlier, he blushed exactly as Gerald did when they first became acquainted during their university days!

As if that wasn't enough, the way Xadrian pursed his lips—when they were still in that stone room—also very similar to what Gerald used to do!

Is Xadrian really Gerald? Was he intentionally hiding something from her?

He may want to trick her, but every time he sees her staring at him, Giya can sense that it is the eyes of someone who has finally reunited with an acquaintance of hers after a long disappearance.

Girls are usually very observant, and Giya herself is no different. In addition, her feminine intuition was also very strong.

Understanding that, the fact that he was able to find so many similarities between Gerald and Xadrian made him unsure how to answer Meredith's question.
