The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2086 It seemed that now, not only would they not get any benefits, but they might also be dragged into it as well.

Everyone was thinking of ways to cut relations with the family so that they wouldn’t be affected when the family went into a downfall or get involved the moment Kanagawa appeared at their doorsteps.

“Sigh, this is the current situation of the Futaba family now. If someone who doesn’t know us well comes, he or she would even think that we’re a third class family!”

After they had all left, Takuya slammed his fist onto the table and exclaimed in fury.

He knew that the people in the family would definitely be against it after the news broke out, but he didn’t expect them to be so brazen and outright confront him. This made him extremely uncomfortable.

“Don’t be angry about it, Patriarch. From the moment they gave a cold shoulder toward the family when it was going downhill and left right then, they were no longer a part of the Futaba family. We don’t have to be enraged because of people like them,” One of the family members rushed over to Takuya and massaged his shoulders.

“Don’t worry, Fujiko. This time, I won’t allow a lousy man like Kanagawa Kai to take you no matter what!” Takuya held his daughter’s hand and reassured her in a determined tone.

This was a promise made by a father to his daughter.

“I know!” Futaba Fujiko wiped away her tears. She knew how pressured her father must be by not allowing Kai to marry her, and he might even be facing some big trouble because of this.

“You all can go now. Gerald, stay here. I have something to tell you.” Takuya released his daughter’s hand.

Gerald nodded and stayed at the same spot.

The family member who left the last closed the door before exiting.

“Gerald, now that it’s just the two of us here, I’ll ask you something, and you have to answer me honestly,” Takuya said after fixing his eyes on Gerald for a long while.

“You can ask me anything, Patriarch Futaba.” Gerald nodded. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“I’ve always been curious about your identity. Fujiko says that you have a strong ability, yet you’re not from the special forces who participate in those big competitions. So, can you tell me who you are?” Takuya rubbed his hands together.

“Sorry I can’t tell you about my identity. I’m just an ordinary citizen of Weston, and I’m only here in Japan to accompany a friend who’s joining a war competition for special forces.” Gerald shook his head, chuckling.

“Alright. Then, you and Fujiko are just pretending to be a couple, right?” Takuya was already mentally prepared for it. He understood that someone as strong as Gerald wouldn’t be just an ordinary man for sure and was certainly of a special identity that couldn’t be disclosed to just anyone for fear that he might get killed once he exposed himself.

“Yeah.” Gerald nodded without objecting.

“To tell you the truth, I, as Fujiko’s father, really hoped that you two could be together as a real couple. Although it hasn’t been a long since I’ve met you, I know how responsible you are as a man, plus, you’ll be able to protect her with your ability,” Takuya released a sigh and said slowly.

“Patriarch Futaba, Ms. Fujiko and I are just acting. I still don’t have the heart to think about things like romance and relationships for now.” Gerald immediately waved and refused, fearing that the acting

would grow into something real, and he wouldn’t be able to get out of it.

“I know, I know. It’s just my wishful thinking.” Takuya waved him down too.

“I’ll protect Ms. Fujiko until everything’s settled. Don’t worry about it, Patriarch Futaba.” Gerald smiled as he smoked.
