The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1455

Her eyes reddened, several people who were descending the hill found themselves astonished as they watched Perla imitate a dog and bark thrice!

Gerald truly hadn’t expected this to happen. After all, he had initially thought that Perla was nothing more than a rich young lady who was both hedonistic and extremely sensitive to how others viewed her. To think that she would actually be willing to humiliate herself just to be able to be his disciple!

Quite frankly, he had suggested for her to bark like a dog since Gerald knew that the humiliation from the act was a little too much for even him to handle. With that in mind, he was convinced that Perla wouldn’t be able to carry out the act. Now that she had, however…

“…I... I’ve done as you told… Are you willing to take me under your wing now…?” asked Perla as she stood before Gerald.

“…That…” replied Gerald rather hesitantly.

Upon noticing that Terrance was also staring at him with his breath held, Gerald eventually grew too embarrassed to go back on his word.

With a nod, he then said, “…Alright, fine…”

Overjoyed by Gerald’s reply, Terrance immediately exclaimed, “Well, what are you waiting for, Perla? Hurry and kneel before your master! Remember to greet him as well!”

After hearing what Gerald had told her to do earlier, Terrance had assumed that his granddaughter’s bad temper would flare up, prompting her to offend Gerald and further lower her chances of ever getting to be his disciple… To his surprise, his granddaughter was smart and did as she was told! Due to that, despite his clear reluctance, Gerald wasn’t able to go back on his word.

To think that the Sherwin family was able to get acquainted with such a great person just because of that small act… It truly was a great fortune on the part of the Sherwins!

‘You’ve finally grown up, my granddaughter…’ Thought the old man to himself.

As for Perla, she quickly headed off to get some sweet-smelling tea. Once she had served it to Gerald, she immediately knelt. With her forehead against the floor, she then declared, “Please accept my respect and worship toward you, master!”

‘…Could my encounter with this young woman have been predicted as well, I wonder…?’ Gerald thought to himself with a bitter smile.

Turning to look at Gus—who had been standing silently at the side this entire time, not daring to speak—Gerald then asked him about his great aunt.
