The Secretly Rich Man novel Chapter 1899

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1899
It was about ten minutes later when Gerald came across a pond in the deepest part of the cave…

There appeared to be a stone pier of sorts in the middle of the body of water, and on that pier, lay a jade board made of jadeite…

Raising a slight brow, Gerald then watched as a drop of water fell from a stalactite… and right onto the jade board, producing a sound that felt oddly euphoric… Then another… and another….

With how echoey the cave’s walls were, it was no wonder why they were able to hear the sound from so far away…

Squinting his eyes at the jade board, Gerald had a feeling that destroying it would only trigger another trap. With that in mind, after some thought, he eventually settled on taking out a shirt from his backpack.

Following that, he carefully aimed at the jade board… and with a toss, Gerald’s shirt completely draped over it!

While he couldn’t safely destroy it, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t stop the dripping sounds… or at least, that was what he hoped. Staring anxiously as the next drop of water fell from the stalactite and rapidly descended toward the now covered jade board… Gerald eventually found himself heaving a sigh of relief when no sound was made.

Now that that was done, Gerald quickly rushed back to where Rey and Yann were to check in on them…

Upon realizing that the two were still in a daze, Gerald quickly began shaking them by their shoulders while yelling, “Hey, snap out of it!”

Thankfully, that seemed to work. Recovering shortly after, Rey shook his head before asking in a slightly sluggish tone, “…Huh…2? Mr. Crawford…? I… What happened…?”

“Indeed, Gerald… What on earth happened back there…? The last thing I remember is hearing a pleasant dripping sound… Everything after that is foggy at best…” added Yann, groaning as he slowly regained his bearings.
