“It’s all my fault, dad. This happened because of me!” Gerald started to apologize when Dylan and the family arrived at the study to discuss their plan. Dylan was caught off guard by this matter. He totally did not anticipate this to happen. “No, Gerald. That’s not the crux of the matter. I’ve heard about Kort from your grandfather and I’ve always known that he’s a very greedy man. Your grandfather had business with him and that was why we moved away from Weston to Northbay. We’ve all been trying to stay away from Kort Moldell, but the day has finally come, when we can run from him no longer!” said Dylan.“Even if it wasn’t for the Long family, he would still come after us, in the name of the Zabel or Letts families!” Dylan continued while frowning. “Dad, the concerns that you had for the Moldells, was it because of this?” Gerald remembered that his father had mentioned that if it was not for their current situation, he would never have sought help from the Moldells and he’d

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

Dylan was upset. If Gerald has stayed, Kort would surely find an excuse to challenge the Crawfords. Even though the Crawfords had the power to fight Kort’s repeated attacks, it was unavoidable that they’d be injured as well.If their inheritance process was not stable enough it would be impossible for them to continue their search for the Sun League. How long can the Crawfords survive if there was no peace? Gerald’s departure could buy the Crawfords some time and Dylan was perfectly aware of this. However, by leaving the protection which his family offered him, Gerald’s path would only grow harsher and more difficult to traverse. Both Kort and the Long family would never allow Gerald to slip off so easily. Dylan held his fist tightly. He was struggling in his heart when he said those words. “Wow! Never knew that Dylan Crawford would abandon his own son so readily when push comes to shove!” Kort frowned. He sneered, “There is more to come! Master Parker, I shall save yo

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

“Boom!”The sound of a violent explosion rocked the city.There was a cloud of smoke at the scene and there was debris everywhere.The light from the fire illuminated the night sky.Several cars exploded simultaneously and started a huge fire within seconds.“Mr. Crawford, are you okay?”Drake protected Gerald as they rolled down the small slope.Drake and Tyson brought Gerald with them as they jumped out of the car during the car crash just now.Whoever that was after them was bat-sh*t insane. “I’m fine, I think!”Gerald shook his head and he felt as though the sky was spinning.“They’re still hot on our asses!” Tyson yelled out at this time.Many bodyguards dressed in black were brandished weapons as they rushed down the small slope from the main road.“There are still sixteen of ‘em left, brother. Let’s deal with eight of them each. Mr. Crawford, start running north of our position! Mr. Lyle is already waiting for you under the hillside in the north. You can leave ever

“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

Seven days later.At a construction site in a typical small county located in Salford Province.“It is time for the wages to be distributed! You, twenty three dollars! Keep it well!”“You, fourteen dollars!”An overweight foreman with a perfectly-round belly was handing out the daily wages to a few men and women who were in their fifties.Among them stood a young man, who stuck out like a sore thumb.The others received twenty three dollars as their daily wage.However, when it came to the young man’s turn, he only received fourteen dollars.The foreman spat on his fingers as he counted the cash to make sure the amount was right. “Hold on. Haven’t we already agreed on this matter before coming here? You don’t need to pay me twenty three dollars a day, but didn’t we settle on sixteen dollars a day instead?” The young man asked.“Damn it! Didja forget the meal you ate earlier this afternoon!? Two dollars is taken off your pay for yer meal!” “But the lunch we had just now was

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

Gerald visited Finnley’s house once in the past.It was embarrassing to mention it but back then, Gerald felt that it was a little cumbersome to have Finnley by his side.He wanted Finnley to be able to settle down at home.However, Queta felt that it would be pitiful for Finnley to be left at home alone. Not to mention how fond Finnley was of Gerald, as reflected by how eager he was to follow him around all the time. So, he brought Finnley back to live in the villa with him.What a twist. The only person he could rely on now was Finnley. Gerald ran into the house.He saw a table full of delicacies on the table in the middle of the room.“Uncle Quick? Are you here?” Gerald asked.“Who is it?”At this moment, a middle-aged woman wearing an apron came out from the room next door, holding a steaming-hot dish in her hands.Gerald was taken aback.“I…I am looking for Uncle Quick! Finnley Quick!”The woman looked at Gerald, who reeked of sweat after toiling away the entire day

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
