The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 976

“…You’re not dreaming… I really am here!” replied Gerald with a smile as he wiped the tears off Bea’s face.

“Where have you been in the past six months, cousin…? You seem to be much stronger and tanner now… If this really isn’t a dream, then I… I… I don’t know, I’m just so happy to finally be able to see you again!” sobbed Bea.

“It’s a long story… I’ll tell you all about it in the future. For now, you just need to know that I’m still perfectly fine!” replied Gerald as he felt his eyes going slightly red.

“Speaking of which, how are my parents doing…?” added Gerald.

“Well, it isn’t uncommon for aunt to cry all day long these days… Uncle himself seems to look much older than he used to before your disappearance… Both of them simply spend most of their time worrying about you…!”

“…I see. And what about my sister?”

“She’s… grown to have a very short fuse now… While she used to be very kind to her subordinates, from the day you went missing, she’d occasionally beat them up over very small matters! Nothing seems to please her anymore, and she orders her subordinates to search for you on a daily basis!” replied Bea.

Hearing that, Gerald could feel tears trickling down his cheeks.

Upon seeing that, Bea then continued, “…Still, it’s great that you’re finally back now, cousin… I’m sure that everyone from your family will be overjoyed once they find out about it, especially Lyra! You know, she’s constantly been missing and thinking about you this entire time… She’s also the one in charge of shouldering all our family’s affairs now… The poor girl is just beyond tired and exhausted now…”

“However, she keeps insisting that she be the one to take good care of the family! She’s been positive that you’ll make your return one day now here you are! She’ll definitely be extremely happy once she finds out about all this! In fact, I should probably call her over now! Oh, and I should call uncle as well!” added Bea, feeling so excited that she wasn’t even sure what to do first.

“…Hold on a moment, Bea. …Please understand that I’m only meeting you now since I couldn’t hold myself back anymore… Bea, please promise me that you won’t tell anybody about what happened tonight… Nobody should find out that we ever met,” said Gerald as he wiped his tears away.

“…Huh? …Why not, cousin?” asked Bea, clearly confused.

“Because I’m currently at a critical point in my battle with Kort… After killing Kort’s third son and ceasing his power in the Salford Province, everything will come crumbling down should my whereabouts or status be exposed… By then, not only will my family suffer a massive blow, but I probably won’t be able to make it out alive either… Do you understand, Bea?” explained Gerald.

“…W-what? You killed Jett?” replied Bea as she cupped her mouth in shock.

“B-but I heard that Jett was kidnapped by a mysterious master! From what I know, he’s still considered to be missing! After all, the Moldells have frantically been trying to locate him to the point of insanity since the day he disappeared! They just can’t seem to find clues about his whereabouts anywhere!” said Bea, now more surprised than anything.
