Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1078
By the time all three of them got out of the ancient well, it was already late at night and the moon was high in the sky. Gerald then led the two girls back to the dilapidated building.

Upon arriving there, they saw that the crowd of people had regrouped again. Ever Professor Yale and the other researchers were there. They had earlier returned to the building once they realized that there was no way they would be able to catch up to Gerald.

Aside from the two deaths, the only other person seriously injured was Wynn, and he was also suffering from a high fever. Though the others had made it out fine, all of them were equally feeling uneasy out of fear.

Now that Gerald was here, however, all of them could finally rest a bit easier after going through so much today.

As the others rested, Gerald himself remained awake. After lighting a bonfire, he kept guard over the others while making sure to toss firewood into the warm flames from time to time.

Meredith and Giya, on the other hand, stayed awake as well. Both of them had their eyes peeled as they continued staring at Gerald—who was currently sitting by the entrance—for quite some time.

Under the moonlight, his tall and muscular silhouette gave them a sense of peace and security.

Eventually, Meredith rolled to her side to look at Giya before whispering, “…You aren’t asleep either, Giya?”

“Not at all…” whispered Giya back.

“Say, ever since we woke up in that monster’s lair, I’ve noticed that you’ve been constantly staring at Xadrian… Do you like him?” asked Meredith, slight jealousy reflected in her voice.

“…No… Of course not…” replied Giya.

After all, the person she liked was Gerald and Giya knew for a fact that she would never be able to forget him for the rest of her life. While it was true that Xadrian and Gerald looked extremely similar, Xadrian wasn’t the person she was truly in love with! At least that was what Giya kept reminding herself.

However, Giya couldn’t deny that she just couldn’t take her eyes off him. Both Xadrian and Gerald really looked too similar!

“Look, I’m just staring at him a lot since he looks a lot like Gerald!” added Giya in a soft tone.
