The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1550

Regardless, Gerald couldn’t help but nod with a smile. She wasn’t a bad woman at all, and though her words were casual, they gave Gerald a warm feeling inside.

‘How rare to meet such a kind woman nowadays… I wonder if fate had planned for us to get acquainted…’
