The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2179

“…Hmm? What do you mean by that…?” asked the old man, clearly feeling confused.

“Well, he’s left my family to establish a new cultivating Crawford family atop an island beyond the Yanam sea that I’ve unfortunately yet to locate…” replied Gerald with a sigh.

“He’s… established another Crawford family…? But that can’t be! The old Daryl valued his family more than his old life! With that said, why would he just abandon you and establish a new family?” exclaimed the old man as his eyes widened in disbelief.

Shrugging, Gerald simply replied, “Beats me…”

Now feeling that he was hearing something more akin to a fairy tale, the old man asked, “…Alright, so… How’s the relationship between the two families…?”

“Well, my Crawford family isn’t connected with the other one. I should also note that I’m the only one left in my family,” explained Gerald.

“…What? What about your parents? While I don’t know much about you, I clearly remember my sister-in-law giving birth to a girl before I left. That should be your sister, right? What happened to her and your parents? Don’t tell me all three of them met with misfortune…?” replied the old man with a frown.

“Negative. Currently, they’ve been abducted by Daryl…” muttered Gerald as he shook his head.

“…They were… what? You… you’re just making all this up, right…?” asked the old man in his utter shock. After all, all this was simply too bizarre! His old friend couldn’t just start a new family of his own before abducting his son and daughter-in-law’s family, right…?

“Unfortunately, it’s the truth. My parents and sister are currently being locked up somewhere on their island. I should also note that though my girlfriend’s been abducted by the Sun League, I have a feeling that my grandfather’s involved…” replied Gerald with a sigh.
