The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1546

The second he turned to have a look at the other girl, however, Gerald found his eyelids instantly twitching. After all, while he had come across many, many beauties before throughout his lifetime, he still found himself amazed by how dazzling this woman looked.

Wearing a long, graceful-looking dress, the other woman had exquisite facial features and a buxom body to boot. Though she was definitely eye-catching, she was relatively more aloof when compared to the ponytailed woman.

The stunning woman herself simply straightened her hair-that had been flying all over the place due to the sea breeze-as she scanned Gerald from head to toe. After a brief moment, she averted her gaze, clearly having lost interest in him.

That, however, didn't seem to bother Gerald too much since he still hadn't recovered from his earlier grieving session anyway. Regardless, he then casually asked, "... Yes? Is there something I can help you with?"

"Well, I've been looking at you for a while now, and you seem to have quite a bit weighing your mind. You're honestly quite handsome, so I was wondering why you'd have so many woes. Regardless, did you know that the ship will be passing by one of Yanam's islands soon? Once we get to the island, my friend and I will be making a stop there since our other friends told us that a party was being held there. Putting it straightforwardly, I'm planning on inviting any new friends I've made on board to attend the party with us. That way, everyone will have companions!" replied the ponytailed woman with a smile. "Actually, hold on, where are my manners? Haha! You can call me Sia, Sia Ticer. As for this beauty, her name is Fia Lock. I'd introduce you to our other friends, but they're all boarding another passenger ship! We'll be meeting up at the island though, so don't worry! Now then, about the party... Not to be rude, but if you're unhappy, you really should focus more on relaxing yourself! If you're constantly ill at ease, you'll never be able to do anything well!" added Sia.

Upon hearing that, Fia nudged Sia with her elbow, as though she was trying to imply something along the lines of, 'Is there really a need to talk with him that much? Let him decide on his own whether he wants to go or not!'

Looking at Fia's actions, Gerald was reminded that she was Yeshua's granddaughter.

Since he was using the power of the Dragon Squad to go about his business this time, Gerald was well aware that it would be inappropriate of him to head to Yearning Island with great fanfare. With that in mind, aside from the exceptional people from the Sacrasolis Palace and the Dragon Squad, Gerald had boarded the ship together with several regular rich young heirs and wealthy merchants to cover up his true motives.

Regardless, despite how strong he already was, Gerald honestly didn't mind joining the girls after hearing Sia's persuasion. After all, he really did need to relax a bit and he was getting rather bored anyway. While he was at it, he could probably also use the chance to inquire the rich merchants of Yanam about some things.

With that in mind, Gerald then nodded to Sia's delight.

A smile on her face, Sia then said, "I'm glad you agreed! It's always best to have a positive attitude no matter which point we're at in life!"

Not too long after, the ship ported by an island.

Though Gerald followed Sia down the ship, Master Ghost, Carlos, and a few others remained on board to make some preparations. They were right to be worried, since dangerous incidents could happen at any time once they got close enough to Yearning Island.

"Sia! Fia! Over here!" shouted a waving young man who was part of a larger group of young people who were already waiting at the port-the second he saw the trio walk out from the ship.

From what Gerald could see, there were many other rich young people getting off the other passenger ships. His attention was brought back to the current scene when a bespectacled young man excitedly added, "The party's been scheduled for tonight, you know? In other words, it starts in ten minutes! With that said, hurry up and get in here already!"

The second that youth's sentence ended, a tall and lean young man could be seen walking toward Fia's group. Among the others within the group, both he and Fia were the most immaculately dressed. Either way, it appeared that he wasn't really all that focused on the party. In truth, he was here because of Fia, and he had been staring at her ever since he saw her get off the ship.

After momentarily-but also rather nervously-scanning Gerald from head to toe, he eventually couldn't hold himself back as he asked, "Fia... Who is this? And why did you get off the ship together with him?"
