Richest Mogul

Chapter 1972
But soon, Manfred's heartbeat steadied. He answered in a low voice, "I want her to be happy. So, I will let her return with her
parents to the world where she belongs to fulfill her dreams."
This answer surprised Viola, who was standing in front of him.
"Are you truly willing to let her go?" she asked again.
This time, Manfred didn't hesitate. "Yes."
Viola frowned, disbelief flickering in her eyes. She had never expected Manfred to let Vivian go. After all, for these past few
years, Manfred had only ever had eyes for Vivian and had not been interested in anyone else.
Manfred was known for his ruthlessness in pursuing his goals, but when it came to Vivian, he unexpectedly chose to let her go.
Viola was surprised by his decision, not anticipating he would release her so easily after all this time.
Manfred noticed that the old woman hadn't disappeared after hearing his answer. Suspicion crept into his heart. "Who exactly
are you?"
Viola took a step back. Then, she let out three loud laughs.
"If you've made your decision, don't regret it!" With those final words, she

vanished before his eyes.
Manfred stared at the empty space where she had stood, his confusion lingering.
The sun had fully risen.
Vivian barely slept through the night, yet she wasn't tired.
After breakfast, she got into the carriage and took some medicine.
Perhaps it was because of the lack of sleep, but her body felt slightly off. The medicine helped ease some of the fatigue.
"We'll arrive in Graystone by this afternoon," Manfred said gently, watching her weary expression.

He could guess that she hadn't slept well the previous night. Neither had he.
By the time they reached Graystone, if the couple they were meeting turned out to be her parents, today might be the day they
parted ways forever.
Vivian's eyes were slightly red, but she smiled faintly and hummed in response.
"If you're tired, take a nap. I'll wake you when we reach Graystone," Manfred said softly.
Vivian looked at him intently, unable to say a word. She simply nodded, then closed her eyes.
But she couldn't fall asleep. Her mind replayed the memories of how she and Manfred had met.
As the carriage moved faster, the weight of her reluctance to part from him grew heavier. But eventually, exhaustion took over.

In her half awake state, she felt someone gently smooth the furrow in her brow. Then a soft voice whispered in her ear, "Just

meeting you is enough."
She didn't know how long she had slept.
The carriage suddenly stopped. There were sounds coming from outside the
carriage, with several people talking.
Vivian slowly opened her eyes.
"Awake?" Manfred looked at her.
Still a little dazed, Vivian met his gaze and slowly nodded. "Have we reached Graystone?"
"Just arrived. We're waiting in line for inspection," he replied.
Vivian was familiar with the process. Soldiers conducted inspections
every city entrance and exit oneret
journey from Hubril.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked ahead. There weren't many people or carriages in line, so it wouldn't take long
before they could enter the city. fo
"Are you hungry?" Manfred asked.
She shook her head. "I'm not hungry. Did you eat?"
She realized she had slept for several hours, and it was probably past lunch by
now. She wasn't sure if he had eaten.
"I've eaten," he said.
Vivian felt relieved.
Then, they both looked at each other in silence for a long time. Vivian didn't know
what to say either.
