The Invisible Mogul -
Chapter 2056
“Speaking of which... you said that the person who attacked you was an enemy of your family?” asked Gerald, refusing to turn around in case she
hadn’t fully dressed herself yet.
“Indeed... His family has consistently been hostile toward mine. I don’t even know how he managed to find out I was staying here, but he did and he
immediately attempted to assassinate me...” replied Fujiko as she shook her head. Her family was clearly not expecting the attack either since they
hadn’t warned her in advance...
Whatever the case was, upon realizing that Gerald was still facing away, she couldn’t help but laugh before saying, “I’m dressed now, so you can turn
around...”
Hearing that, Gerald gave a sigh of relief as he finally turned to face her again...
“So... you came here to settle some affairs, you said... Pardon my assumption, but based on what I saw earlier, you seemed to be much stronger
than that man who tried to kill me. With that in mind, could you be representing Weston for the competition...?” asked Fujiko as she stared at Gerald
with dreamy eyes.
Though how they had met was rather cliché—with a heroic man like Gerald saving her, a damsel in distress, in the nick of time—Fujiko couldn’t help
but adore every second of it.
Waving his hand in response, Gerald then smiled before replying, “Unfortunately, that isn’t the case. My friend’s the person participating, and I only
accompanied him here.”
“I see! Regardless, I think I should mention that by helping me, you’ve unfortunately offended the Hanyu family... They’re an organization of top
assassins here, and I’m afraid they won’t be letting you off that easily...” muttered Fujiko, her worry clearly reflected in her eyes. After all, though she
knew that Gerald was strong, no amount of strength could take on an entire family of world-famous assassins that had a history spanning hundreds of
years... Hell, not even the Japanese military dared to mess with them...
Upon hearing that, Gerald raised a slight brow as he replied, “...Oh? The Hanyus, you say...”
“Indeed... Have you heard about them before?” asked Fujiko.
“Well, they’re quite famous so it shouldn’t really be a surprise if I have,” replied Gerald with a smile as he began reaching for a cigarette. However, the
moment he considered Fujiko’s presence, Gerald immediately refrained from smoking.
Whatever the case was, after thinking for a while, Fujiko eventually said, “...Well, since you’re in all this trouble because of me, why don’t you live
with my family for the moment? I’ll explain what happened today to my father, and from there, we’ll have a proper discussion to guarantee your

safety... Though the Futabas may not be as strong as the Hanyus, we’re still quite influential in Japan. With that in mind, I have a feeling that the
Hanyus won’t attack you all willy-nilly once they realize that you’re under our protection...”
“I don’t mind going with that,” replied Gerald with a subtle smile.
Truth be told, he wasn’t afraid of the Hanyus at all. After all, even if all that family’s elites came after him in one go, he was pretty sure that he wouldn’t
even suffer a scratch. Still, this was his prime opportunity to get to know Fujiko better. Better yet, if her family truly was part of the Seadom tribe—and
he managed to get close to them—, he would surely obtain a greater chance of inquiring about the secrets of Yearning Island. With all that in mind,
there was no way in hell he was ever going to reject that idea.
“Then it’s settled! Go ahead and tell your friend that you’ll be returning with me for the time being. The Hanyus usually act fast and I’m worried that
they’ll send people over before we even manage to get out of this place,” said Fujiko as she gave a good stretch, revealing quite a bit of her well-
endowed figure beneath her simple clothes. The sight of it alone was enough to make Gerald look away...
Seeing that Gerald wasn’t budging from the couch, Fujiko then nudged him on the shoulder before adding, “Um... Hello? We’re burning daylight
here... The Hanyus could cause trouble for us at any moment, you know?”
