The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2059

“No wonder your name sounded so familiar! So you really are the person who had single-handedly taken out those three major families in Yanam! If I remember correctly, you caused the Yanam military quite a bit of trouble as well!” exclaimed Fujiko’s father.

Upon hearing that, Fujiko instantly saw Gerald in a new light. Truth be told, she had found his name to be oddly familiar as well when she first learned of it. To think that this was the very Gerald who had wreaked havoc in Yanam!

Realizing that he had brought something awkward up, Fujiko’s father then cleared his throat before waving his hand as he added, “…Regardless, there’s no need to explain why you did it. I don’t have any interest in the affairs of Yanam, and I’m sure you had your reasons for doing that as well. Putting all that aside, the important thing is that you saved my dearest daughter… Had you not stepped in, she would’ve surely… Well, whatever the case is, from today onward, you’re a benefactor of my family! If you ever need anything, just say the word and the Futabas will try our best to help you!”

“I appreciate it,” replied Gerald with a smile, pleased that he had gotten into Fujiko’s father’s good books. That alone was enough for now, and Gerald knew better than to ask about the Seadom tribe straight off the bat.

“Indeed! Speaking of which, allow me to introduce myself! As you may have already known, I’m Futaba’s father and also the master of this family. You can call me Futaba Takuya,” said Takuya as he patted his forehead before extending his arm for a handshake.

“A pleasure to meet you. The name’s Gerald Crawford, and I’m from Weston,” replied Gerald as he shook hands with Takuya.

After their hands parted, Takuya thought for a while before saying, “Hmm… From past experience, I have a feeling that the Hanyus should already be investigating you. With that in mind, do stay with us in the meantime as I send my men out to deal with them for you. Also, if you need anything, just say the word!”

“It’s fine, I can handle myself. Though I am interested in knowing why an assassin family like the Hanyus—that even accepts employment orders from outside Japan throughout the year—would be involved with your family…” replied Gerald as he lit a cigarette.

“It’s… a long story, to say the least. Historically, my family has simply always had a grudge against the Hanyus, and detailing the story is going to take much too long. Regardless, I’ll have a nanny prepare a meal for you first,” said Takuya as he shook his head with a smile.
