The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2245

Kai just didn’t understand. Even if Gerald had lied about not being a good drinker, that drink contained seventy percent of alcohol…! Gerald had drunk six glasses of that alcohol, and any regular adult would’ve definitely gotten drunk out of their mind after taking that much! Yet here Gerald was, looking completely sober even though Kai was certain that Gerald had properly drunk every glass! How had Gerald digested all that alcohol so quickly?!

“Oh? Is that so?” replied Gerald with a faint smile. Though Kai had said all that, his terrified eyes told Gerald that everything he had guessed was on the mark.

While all this was happening, the old man simply remained silent. The elder, for one, knew that he only needed to provide this space for Gerald to do whatever he needed to. While he wasn’t sure why Gerald couldn’t have just held this conversation back at the Futaba manor, the old man knew better than to inquire about that at the moment.

Whatever the case was, Kai—whose forehead was now drenched in sweat—then added, “I-I mean it! You, of all people, should know that I’d never do anything to harm you…!”

“I see… and what do you say?” asked Gerald as turned to look at Kai’s subordinate.

“T-the young master speaks the truth! We were simply trying to give you a relaxing time in hopes that you’d forgive us after all we’ve done in the past! We meant no evil!” declared the quivering subordinate.

“Hmm… Did I wrongly accuse you then…?” asked Gerald with a slightly raised brow.

“Y-you did…! Look, if I really wanted to harm you, wouldn’t it have made sense for me to do it while you were drunk? Why’d I provide you with women if I really wanted to hurt you!” replied Kai with a nod.
