The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2292

Though he had accelerated the entire way, it still took Gerald four whole hours to get from the forest to the Grubb manor. Regardless, upon Gerald’s arrival at the manor at about nine that night, his return was quickly notified to Lucian who—upon learning that—instantly urged Aiden to head to the reception room. Lucian himself then jogged out the manor—together with his butler—to greet the youth…

Upon seeing them, Gerald nodded before asking, “Good evening, Mr. Grubb. Have my friends arrived?”

“…Friends?” replied Lucian in a confused tone as he led Gerald to the reception room.

“Go on…”

After exchanging glances with his butler, Lucian then said, “We believe that Maddox Chabert is the culprit!”
