Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1295

"... Yume?"

'...This is really him...! So it's true that he didn't really die!'

The two met each other on the way to the palace of the king of the seas. Gerald himself had saved her several times before she disappeared.

Speaking of his departure, Gerald was constantly troubled and filled with self-deprecation since he went missing after he fainted — due to Dead Annie's attack — at the entrance of the sea king's palace. Upon waking up, he remembered how he felt as if he had just disappeared from the face of the planet.

He even sent people out to search for Yume carefully—regardless of whether he was dead or still alive— in the area around the palace of the king of the seas for over a month, although to no avail.

It was then that Gerald first began to wonder if Yume had really been saved by someone else. After all, he knew that he was also looking for a woman dressed in white. All he knew, he had already found the woman in white!

Well, his speculation about him being saved is at least true.

'Just stay... Why is he here…? He's also a Gunter, isn't he…?' Gerald thought to himself, filled with questions as he helped him regain his consciousness using a secret technique.

Due to Gerald's help, Yume's expression changed much better in a short time. Before long, Yume's eyelids began to open slowly, revealing her beautiful eyes…

However, when he saw Gerald, he immediately gasped awake. Although he was completely shocked, he quickly flinched and grabbed Gerald's arm before shouting, “There's someone coming out to catch you, Gerald! You must run! Soon!"

Helping her up, Gerald then turned to look at the corpses floating in the river before asking, "You mean them?"

Staring wide-eyed at the corpses, Yume replied in great disbelief, "You ... You killed all seven of them ...?"

"Indeed. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but they're all from the Gunter family, aren't they? ”

“... Them, indeed. The seven of them are - well, are, the amazing people from my family... Still, I really didn't expect them to stalk me! After realizing who they were—before I was completely knocked out by their Dead Annie attack—I instantly knew that they had followed me to deal with you!”

"…I saw. Anyway, I don't think you told me the truth about many things back then.. First, I couldn't detect the strange inner strength—which I'm currently feeling from you— back then… Are you just pretending? become weak at that time?” gerald asked, now that he had a clearer understanding of the situation.

“I... I admit that I lied to you before, but after getting to know you better, I have long lost the intention to hurt you!” yume replied, seeming afraid that Gerald would misunderstand him even more.

“So you admit it. Well, now that you have it, why should I continue to believe in you? After all, you are the tall and mighty young lady of the Gunter family!” gerald said with a bitter smile.

“Even if you choose not to believe me, please understand that you cannot stay here any longer! I'll finally give you a clearer explanation, but for now, please follow me! We really should hide!” answer Yume.

While Gerald felt that his eyes seemed sincere enough to be trusted, he was no longer the same person he was two years ago. She knows for sure that the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can cheat, and Yume is very charming.

Since he now knew that he had been fooled once by her, he could not help but be wary.

While it was true that he now felt the overwhelming inner strength of Yume, it was not what worried him the most. No, actually, while Gerald was confident that he would not be able to defeat him with his current strength alone, he knew he would not be able to fight him if he chose to attack him with Dead Annies!

With that in mind, if he were to really fool her again, it would definitely be very difficult for her to back off, so her hesitation was to believe it.

Seemingly reading Gerald's mind, Yume then said, “Listen, I know you're afraid of the Dead Annies. Here, I throw all mine now! Since you are capable enough to kill those seven incredible Gunters, you should know that without flowers, I'm practically harmless to you! So please, please trust me and let me stay by your side.!”.

Afterwards, Gerald watched as he threw the petals of the flower he had in his hand into the river.

“There, I have no one now! With that said, know that I only asked you out on a date because I wanted to explain all of this to you. I never expected Lady Gunter to send these guys to stalk me! I... I really never meant to hurt you, Gerald...!” obviously Yume, her eyes were now starting to water a little.
