Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2185

He was expecting the opposing voices and had prepared for it, but when they began arguing, he felt very uneasy.

After all, he was the patriarch, but even his words were questioned and rejected by his clansmen. There was no

difference at all for him to hold the position as the patriarch or not.

“Then, what is it that you want to tell us that you’ve summoned us today?”

“If it’s just about this, we didn’t have to go through all this trouble at all. You could have just called and informed us.

You won’t listen to our opinions anyway!”

Seeing Takuya get angry, the other people did not dare to say anything. But when the parlor was silent, Masaru said

these words in a hoarse voice. After all, he was Takuya’s uncle, and he could still afford to completely ignore

Takuya’s words.

Once Masaru had said that, everyone nodded in agreement.

“It is indeed about this matter. However, I thought that we had not met each other for a long time, so I took this

opportunity to gather you here to discuss the future of the family.” Although Takuya hated this, Masaru was still his

uncle. With all the clansmen here, he still had to show Masaru some respect.

“You are Gerald Crawford?” Masaru didn’t reply to Takuya and looked at Gerald instead.

“That’s right.” Gerald put his hands behind his back, standing tall and straight modestly.

“Your temperament is not bad. Takuya said that you are a Westoner. I wonder which family you belong to and what

kind of status you have in Weston. The Futaba family is a famous family in Japan anyhow. Although it is gradually

declining now, not just anyone can come and marry Fujiko!”

Masaru sized Gerald up.

Right after praising him, his tone became sharp. Everyone looked at Gerald immediately. They had been hoping for

Fujiko to marry Kai because of the status of the Kanagawa family.

But now, if Gerald had a high status in Weston, they wouldn’t need to consider the Kanagawa family anymore as

they could get more benefits from Weston.

“I’m sorry to let you down. I don’t have a glamorous family background nor do I have any power,” replied Gerald

with a smile.

“You have no power and no influence, yet you are dreaming of marrying Fujiko. This is simply not going to happen.

It would have been nothing when the family was still strong, but now, the Futaba family is on the verge of falling.

We must let Fujiko marry Kanagawa Kai and get assistance from the Kanagawa family. Only then will our family be

able to get out of this crisis!”

Hearing what Gerald had said, Masaru rejected him at once.

“Uncle, Fujiko is my daughter and your grandniece. We must think about her happiness and not simply treat her as

a sacrifice for the sake of the development of the family. Haven’t you heard those things about Kanagawa Kai?”

Takuya took a deep breath and tried his best to reign in his anger.

“Of course I know that. Still, this can’t be helped. If Gerald Crawford had a high status in Weston, I would have

certainly agreed.” Masaru’s face showed that he did not allow any refusal. He obviously did not see Takuya as the

patriarch.

Bang!

“’When I say no, I mean no!”

Finally, Takuya couldn’t hold it in anymore and banged his fist on the table.
