The Secretly Rich Man Novel - Chapter 1991

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1991 Still, just from the way Gerald looked and talked, Kay knew better than to doubt him. Whatever the case was, seeing that Kay was about to escort them back to Shontell-to ensure that the holy stones wouldn't get stolen by other bandits-Tanner took the chance to walk up to Gerald and say, "Speaking of which, are you headed for Shontell, Mr. Crawford?"
