The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2248

Upon hearing that, Gerald momentarily fell silent. While it was true that Amare had told him that his parents and sister were being treated humanely, he was still worried that things could change at any moment.

However, simply leaving to save them felt irresponsible toward the Futabas. After all, the second the Kanagawas and Hanyus learned that he had left, they would surely start harassing the Futabas again, and Gerald was pretty sure that the Fareast Consortium could do little to stop them.

Now that the old man was volunteering to help, however, Gerald couldn’t help but feel more assured. After all, the most mysterious family in Japan was stepping in! Knowing how strong the Yamashitas were, Gerald believed that nobody would be able to touch the Futabas if they were really going to help him.

Seeing how silent Gerald had gotten, the old man was prompted to ask, “So… made your decision?”

Looking at the old man for a while, Gerald then replied, “Are… you really willing to help me…?”

“But of course! In the end, you’re still Daryl’s grandson, so helping you is only right. Besides, I’m curious to find out why that old man underwent such drastic changes since we last met… Honestly, I still find it hard to believe that he locked your family up!” declared the old man with a smile.

“…Well, alright then! I won’t be as worried as long as you’re involved! While I’m sure you’re already going to do this, please do your best to help the Futabas once I’m gone. I’ll definitely return to help out once I’ve rescued my parents and sister!” said Gerald in a determined voice as he slapped his thigh.

“Oh, I won’t be involved,” replied the old man as he shook his head.

“…Come again?” asked Gerald, rightfully puzzled.
