Kort only shifted his target to the wealthiest family in Weston after the Crawfords’ move to Northbay but Parker’s words finally knocked some sense into him.If this matter gets out of hand, Moldells’ grandmaster surely would never forgive him. But he was already on the brink of success. Kort was not ready to give it all up. Even if he wasn’t going to get half of their assets, he must take at least a quarter of it! Kort was not ready to give up yet! He kept his cool and remained silent. Meanwhile, Gerald walked out into the hall.“Gerald, we are good friends, I’ll help you, and I’m sure Master Parker will too!” Yselle walked over and grabbed Gerald’s arm. “I know, thanks Yselle!”Gerald looked at Parker and said, “Uncle Parker, if the conflict between me and the Long family is settled, does that mean that you would continue to stay and help us?” Parker was unsure what Gerald meant by that but he nodded and said, “You don’t have to worry about that. Your grandmother has saved

Gerald, who had attempted to escape was blocked from all sides.After that, the car door was opened.A group of bodyguards dressed in black walked out of the car.Their leader was none other than Joel.He was the father of the three young masters of the Long family.“Hahaha! Why if it isn’t Mr. Crawford? Why the hurry? You going somewhere?”A vicious look flashed across Joel’s face.“I heard that you’ve announced your self-imposed exile from the Crawford family today. I couldn’t believe it at first but looking at you right now, Mr. Crawford, it seems like the rumors are true!” Joel said.“You’ve been waiting for this moment for a very long time now, aren’t you Joel? Instead of blabbering on and on about this, why don’t you take me away, as you’ve always wanted to!” Gerald replied with a frown.“Mr. Crawford, if it weren’t for the fact that I had been given strict orders not to take any action against you, I would have started hacking away the moment our eyes met. I would hav

“Hahaha! I gave up everything when we were back in Salford Province. I asked for a clean slate with you but how did you respond? Arrogantly, haughtily, up on your high horse, you ignored me completely. You’ve hurt me so many times, but do you remember who was the one who remained by your side when you were still considered a pauper back in university? Who was the girl who held your hand stubbornly when you were walking through the campus, being ridiculed by everyone around you? Who was the only person who did not despise your existence back then!?” Slap!Xavia’s eyes were red with tears as she said, “It was me! But what about you? How did you treat me as soon as you gained some wealth and glory? You made me live in such a miserable state like a dog who had to go around begging for food! Even though Felicity was a bitch who had always despised you and looked down on you, you chose to help her when she asked for help! What about me? What happened when I needed help!?” “You were the

When Gerald saw their employees staring in his direction, he was afraid that his identity would be discovered.So, he wanted to leave.“Why are you leaving? Don’t leave! After all, no matter what happened in the past, we’re at least acquaintances!” Raquel grabbed Gerald by his collar.More likely than not, Gerald had really turned into a pauper this time.Hahaha! Raquel felt overjoyed and relieved to see him in such a pathetic state.“Come! Come! I want all of you to take a good look at him! Let me introduce you to this young man, Mr. Gerald Crawford!”Raquel said as she waved her hand at the employees working in the project department.They were all sharply-dressed folks, with all of them sporting creaseless business suits.They had obviously graduated from university not too long ago.They covered their mouths as they giggled at Gerald. “Oh my god! I would kill myself if I was forced to live like this!”“That’s right! But isn’t he being really self-reliant? To think th

Finnley’s face looked rosier than compared to when Queta was taking care of him before this.He was carrying a bag of herbs.“I just arrived!” Gerald replied.“Why, grandson? Things sure went tits-up didn’t they?” Finnley asked as he chuckled.“You can say that again!” Gerald replied, “I have nowhere else to go now, so I guess I’ll be relying on you from now on!”“Hahaha! I’ve already asked Maria to wait for you for a few days now! Judging by how you look, you must have suffered a lot in the past few days. Come, let’s go. Maria has already prepared a table full of dishes. She’s prepared it for you! Come in and have a little drink with your gramps!”Finnley said as he patted Gerald on his shoulder.“So, it turns out that the Moldell family had forced you into a dead end. What is wrong with the Crawford family anyway? Don’t they have a lot of money? Did their balls drop off when facing the Moldell family?” The two men started talking over wine and food.Finnley was smoking a ci
