Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2191 Nodding, Suijin then put his cigarette that he had barely even puffed out before saying, “… Tell him to meet me at the reception room.”
Fast forward to twenty minutes later, Suijin could be seen sitting on a bamboo chair in the reception room when Suke rushed in under Ryugu’s lead. Upon seeing Suijin, Suke immediately yelled, “Patriarch! As long as you help me kill Gerald, I’m willing to let go of half the benefits that we previously agreed upon!”
“Calm yourself and slowly elaborate the situation to me,” muttered Suijin as he held onto his temple, feeling a slight headache coming. Honestly, all these problems stemmed from the moment he had told Saburo to go after Fujiko… Come to think of it, if Gerald wasn’t in the picture, everything would’ve gone smoothly! However, there simply was no getting rid of that youth no matter what tactics they used!
“Well, the Futabas held a family meeting tonight, and Gerald revealed that he got people from the Yamashita family to guard over our manor! While he was showing them to us, those Yamashitas appeared to greatly respect Gerald as well!” explained Suke as his face turned red, remembering how humiliated he had felt earlier. All he wanted now was to have Gerald dead, even if he would be left with nothing at all!
“Are you absolutely sure that they were from that Yamashita family? Could he not have hired actors just to lie to you guys?” replied Suijin as he tried to rationalize the situation despite his bewilderment.
After all, Gerald simply didn’t seem like the kind of person who would have any form of contact with the Yamashitas.
“I was doubtful at the start as well, but after they showed us their IDs, I’m forced to believe that they’re the real deal,” muttered Suke.
“How truly strange… I’ve never heard of anyone contacting the Yamashitas before… Gerald’s a Westoner, no? How did he even manage to build such a close relationship with that family?” said Suijin, puzzled out of his mind. What an improbable situation!
As Suijin continued struggling to accept Suke’s unbelievable statement, Suke clenched his fist before replying, “While I don’t know how all this is possible, I assure you that everything I said was true. Hell, those Yamashitas are still standing right outside my manor! If you don’t believe me, send some of your men over to have a look! Better yet, just contact the others from my family! They all witnessed the same thing!”
“I don’t think any of this is staged, patriarch. Remember, that old man from the Yamashita family helped Gerald and Fujiko escape back then. With that said, I truly believe that Gerald has a relationship with the Yamashitas…!” whispered Ryugu after leaning closer to Suijin.
Upon hearing that, Suijin pondered about it for a moment before eventually saying, “Regardless, feel free to stay at my place for the next few days. If everything you’ve said is true, then I guarantee that I’ll get rid of Gerald for you! However, about the benefits…”
“Half! I just need half of the benefits that we previously agreed upon!” declared Suke.
“You have my word, then! Now go get some rest as I further investigate this affair!” replied Suijin.
In the beginning, he had planned to cooperate with Suke, presenting Suke some benefits in return, in order to annex the Futabas since their family was currently in decline. However, things took a turn when Gerald stepped in. With that in mind, as long as they managed to get rid of Gerald, they would surely be able to resume their plan without any trouble.
This was what Ryugu had hoped to achieve this entire time…!
