The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1498

The sound had come from the exhausted youth who had just toppled to the ground—not too far away from Gerald—after making quite some distance in that short period of time. Despite having fallen, the youth still tried his best to protect the woman in his arms.

Witnessing the scene, Gerald found his eyelids twitching slightly as the youth—who had just noticed Gerald—shouted, “S-sir…! Please, save us…! I’m begging you…! Help us make a call or something…!”

As he fumbled a few steps forward, the youth’s shouting grew increasingly nervous when he realized how feebly the woman was now breathing.

“Meghan? Meghan! Please, don’t sleep yet!” cried out the youth as the moonlight finally illuminated the duo just enough for Gerald to have a good look at the woman’s face… And when he did, his heart instantly began palpitating.

The woman… She looked extremely similar to Mila at first glance!

As he thought about how much the woman resembled her, a distinct and cold voice could suddenly be heard shouting, “They’re right up ahead!”

Snapping out of it, Gerald watched as eight burly men dashed out from the forest and quickly surrounded them.

While that alone wouldn’t have surprised Gerald, he found himself feeling slightly astonished that these people—the youth included—all had hints of inner strength in their bodies. From what he could tell, these were all rather exceptional champions.

“Give it up, Yule! There’s no escape! With that in mind, why don’t you just obediently come back with us? Or would you prefer if we dragged you back after breaking all your limbs? Regardless, your treasured younger sister… She’s about to die, huh? Hahaha! I’m saying it right now that I’m quite the pervert, and I don’t really mind having a go with a corpse as long as it’s still warm! Hahaha!” sneered what seemed to be the leader of the group as his seven men began laughing as well.

“You b*stard…!” growled Yule as he clenched his teeth while glaring viciously at all of them.

“Of course, there’s a way to avoid that… If you don’t want Meghan to be my plaything, then you know what to do, right…?” taunted the leader as he slowly walked closer to Yule.

Seeing that, Yule hugged his young sister tightly before gently placing her onto the ground… Though his body was heavy from all his injuries, he gallantly stood before the unconscious Meghan, ready to fight them if it was the last thing he did.

Gerald himself—who had been witnessing all this from the side—found an inexplicable wrath growing within him after hearing the leader’s words. Maybe it was because that woman’s eyes resembled Mila’s so much…

While he knew that she most probably just a stranger, it still felt like they were saying all that cr*p to the actual Mila, and that irked him to no end.

“…Huh? Who the hell are you, twerp?” growled the leader as he and his men finally realized that Gerald was present.
