The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2019

"I want to apologize to you for what happened today. It was because of my actions that you were almost in danger. It was my fault. But I hope that in the future, you'll consider working with us instead. We were lucky to bring you back this time, but it might not be the case next time," Gerald softly said after clearing his throat.

"So, you know it happened because of your actions?" Lindsay looked at Gerald sarcastically and slammed her utensils on the table.

"Gerald, I was in Yanam for a family visit. I admit that I might have been humiliated long ago without you. But think about what I've been through during this time. Is this some movie or TV drama I'm in? Why did I end up on an island? And why did the people on the island kidnap me?"

"That's what I'm trying to say. For your future safety, I hope you can listen to me," Gerald said with a slight frown.

It was supposed to be a simple apology, but he had unexpectedly stirred up Lindsay's emotions.

"Can you please tell me why you did all those things?"

Lindsay stared at Gerald. She realized that the man before her was nothing like an ordinary person in the way he did things.

No, he was like a madman.

"Because my parents are in their hands," Gerald took a deep breath and said in a low voice.

And with those words, Lindsay fell silent.

"Since you want to know, I'll tell you the truth," Gerald's expression was calm, as if he was talking about something unrelated to himself.

"The people on this island kidnapped my parents, and they probably know the secret of my girlfriend's disappearance. So, I had to come here to rescue my parents personally. Understand?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

"Tarek?" A woman cautiously called out. After a few minutes, the same woman cautiously pushed open the door.

After seeing his wife, Tarek gradually regained his composure and hurriedly began giving out instructions, "We need to deal with Terenzio's body first. Fetch some water quickly, but remember not to let anyone see you. Otherwise, we'll be in deep trouble!"

"Shouldn't we contact the main family? This isn't a small matter!" The woman said as she covered her stomach. She would have thrown up if she hadn't forced herself to hold it in.

"Contact the main family? Can you even reach them? Besides, even if you manage to contact them, we might already be dead by the time they arrive on the island. Right now, the only chance we have to survive is to follow their orders." Tarek said in a trembling voice.

He had been frightened to the core by Gerald.

"Okay, I'll go fetch the water!" The woman didn't dare to hesitate any longer. She grabbed a bucket and hurriedly made her way past Terenzio's body, fearing that she might be too slow!
