Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1879
“Speaking of which, we’re not full yet, boss! With that said, why don’t you resume business?” said Gerald.
“Oh! Just give me a minute and I’ll make more for all of you to eat then!” replied the stall owner almost
instantaneously, a wide smile on her face.
Since they had just saved her, it was only natural that she felt the need to repay their kindness with hospitality. With
that, she quickly began setting up her stall again before getting to work… and not long after, a massive plate of
food was served at Gerald’s table.
“I’m truly grateful for your help today, so all this is on me!” declared the stall owner.
Before Gerald or the girls could even reply, Rey was already saying, “You’re being way too polite, boss! It was only a

Upon hearing that, the trio could help but stare at Rey with raised brows, thinking how shameless he was.
“Well, small or not, it was still a great help to us! Now eat up and do tell me if you need more!” replied the stall
owner before happily returning to work.
Once she left, Juno couldn’t help but glare at Rey as she said, “Hey, don’t go acting so impulsively next time, Rey!”
Scratching the back of his head in response, the slightly embarrassed youth then chuckled sheepishly before
replying, “I was just trying to help, Miss Zorn!”
“I get that, but you have to consider your own capabilities before picking a fight like that! Had Gerald not been
present today, you’d surely have been beaten into a pulp!” retorted Juno.
Just about anyone would’ve stepped up to deal with those hooligans if they had the capability to. However, the fact
that no one did meant that they all understood that they were never going to be able to take on those bat-wielding
gangsters without getting into serious trouble.
Whatever the case was, Rey then grinned cheekily before replying, “I know, I know, I won’t do something like this
again, Miss Zorn… I’ll just leave it to brother Gerald!”
Hearing his name, Gerald then cleared his throat before saying, “While it’s true that your righteous behavior
deserves praise, even I implore you not to be so impulsive in future!”
Compliments aside, Gerald had to make sure to properly share how he felt about today’s events.
“Got it, brother Gerald! I’ll keep that in mind!” replied Rey as he nodded, completely understanding where Juno and
Gerald were coming from.
Essentially, Gerald was telling him not to be overly righteous when the odds were stacked against him. After all, he
was still nowhere near as strong as Gerald yet. Still, Rey couldn’t help but wonder how great it would be if he could
deal with foes the way Gerald did…

Regardless, it was about half an hour later when the four finally finished their meal and began to leave.
Naturally, Gerald insisted on paying the stall owner, and in the end, she was forced to accept the payment. Gerald,
for one, knew that life wasn’t easy for her and her daughter, so he would’ve paid her regardless of how much she
objected.
Either way, upon returning home, the four then headed to their respective rooms to get well-deserved rest. After
that busy day, all of them were rightfully exhausted… Well, most of them.
Gerald, for one, knew that he couldn’t just sit there and do nothing now that he knew that the scarred man and the
Hoklux Gang existed. They were already causing trouble and fear to members of society, and they would surely get
more and more daring in the future if something wasn’t done now.
With that in mind, Gerald laid down on his bed… and before long, his ghost form flew out before quickly heading
toward the Hoklux Gang’s headquarters…
