Chapter 785
“…What? The young master, Mr. Crawford?” Everyone was now exchanging glances with each other in astonishment. “I’ve never even known that the Crawford family had a young master!” “Have you forgotten that the Crawford family’s young master was raised among ordinary people? That made it near impossible for anyone to get any information about him! Not even the Fendersons know much about him, even after investigating so much into the matter back then!” “To think that the Crawford’s young master has already returned to his family! Why, he’s even come all the way here just to look for the Fendersons! How powerful and impressive! It wouldn’t be farfetched to say that he’s probably comparable to Dylan back in the day!” As the people in the crowd continued discussing among themselves, Jasmine herself was breathing rather frantically. She was currently facing all sorts of inexplicable emotions. After Mr. Crawford’s arrival was announced, none of the affiliate families dared to contin

“Yes, that must be him!” As the crowd of people gulped, not even daring to speak loudly, the new group of people continued walking forward till they were right in front of Bryson. Each person in that group exuded an equally strong aura. “Is that you, Fynn?” asked Bryson as he smiled at the old man. “Indeed it is, Lord Fenderson. It’s been a long time since we’ve last met! I trust you’ve been well since then!” replied Fynn with a slight smile. “I have. Still, all those years… Gone just like that! To think that the young boy who used to always stick around Daryl is now an old man… If it wasn’t because of your unchanging, sharp as ever eyes, I wouldn’t have been able to recognize you at all! It really has been too long!” said Bryson, his tone tinged with regrets as he reminisced. After all, back in the day, Bryson and Daryl were so close that they even considered each other to be brothers. The old man that now stood before him went by the name of Fynn, and he used to be Daryl’s

Fynn himself began scanning through the crowd at that moment. According to what Mr. Zartyr had said, Mr. Crawford had indeed already arrived. By then, everyone was exchanging glances with one another. “Oh gosh! I really hadn’t expected Mr. Crawford to come here! Why wasn’t I aware of any of this at all?” said Mindy in a surprised tone. It was no surprise why she wanted to see Mr. Crawford for herself. After all, he was the reason why she and Jasmine couldn’t even leave their house when they were children. Even the celebrities who were still holding on to Gerald were looking around excitedly. While they were quite sure that actually being able to get acquainted with someone with such a high status as Mr. Crawford was completely out of the question, a chance to see what a truly dignified rich heir like him looked like would be the second best thing. Being able to do that would make the entire trip feel worthwhile. Watching the scene unfold before him, Gerald could only sha

The simultaneous shout had come from the people standing behind Fynn. Gerald then nodded before saying, “I really hadn’t expected you to come here, Uncle Fynn…” “Master was simply worried about your situation. Since he was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to handle the matter alone, he sent me here to help you!” replied Fynn. “Heh! I’m just here because I really missed you, brother!” said Yoel with a smile. By this point, everyone’s mouths were hanging wide open, especially the celebrities from before. “I-Impossible… This is absolutely impossible!” muttered Xavia as she continued shaking her head in her shock. To think that for a period of time, she had finally managed to recover from her shock of finding out that Gerald’s true identity was Mr. Crawford of Mayberry… Her joining the Long family had allowed her initial sadness and hurt feelings to slowly fade since she knew that she was at least on par with Gerald at that point in time. Knowing that allowed her to keep a mo

“Why don’t we make up now, Gerald? I’m even willing to be your concubine!” “I beg your pardon?” replied Gerald as he stared at Xavia in disbelief. “…U-um… What… was I even saying…” Due to how anxious she was, in her panic, she had accidentally blurted out what she truly felt. It was now beyond awkward and embarrassing for her. “I-It was just gibberish… S-say Gerald, we’re still friends, right?” “… If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave,” said Gerald as he turned around to leave for good, a bitter smile on his face. His relationship with Xavia was nothing but a thing in the past now. Since he no longer had any feelings for her, he knew it was best for him not to get involved with Xavia anymore. A little while after he had gotten into his car, he received a phone call. It was from Mila. Though Mila hadn’t contacted him for almost half a month now, Gerald had sent her a message every now and then. “What is it, Mila?” asked Gerald as he smiled. “Are… you done

“Thank you, Narissa! You can hand them over to me!” replied Mila as she took the parcels from her. “And thank you for giving me the opportunity to appear on television for a show! Thank you so much!” “You’re welcome. We’re all good friends after all! Either way, I think we should open the packages now and see what we got!” replied Mila with a smile. Since Narissa wanted to get closer to Mila again, she stayed to watch them open their packages. Including her, there were now four people in their dormitory. “…Huh? There’s a parcel for each of us! Could it be that all three of our boyfriends sent us gifts at the same time? Hahaha! Though that’s most likely improbable!” joked Molly. “My guess is that they’re from the overseas expedition team. The three of us are, after all, entourages for the expedition team!” “Yeah, it’s probably from them!” With that, the three of them then began opening their respective parcels… “…Huh? A… Pendant? It looks a little strange, don’t you thin

“It is! I really hadn’t expected to bump into you again!” replied Gerald with a nod. The woman in question, was none other than Alice. He had initially thought that he wouldn’t ever see her again after the incident in the Fenderson family mansion. To think that he would bump into her again so soon! Gerald still remembered what Alice had said to him that night, and he was honestly still feeling bad about it. Had she not met him, she could’ve been living a much better life now. As if her suffering wasn’t already enough, she would’ve definitely been beaten up much more terribly by that man had he stepped any later! Seeing the state she was in made Gerald truly saddened. After all, he no longer held on to any resentment toward her. “Are you alright?” asked Gerald. “I… I’m fine! I’m just a loser now, Gerald… Do you want to beat me up too? After all, I’m just some vain girl who loves money and is willing to do anything for it! I’m beyond shameless! Just leave me be!” replied Al

Holding on to her stomach as she wiped her tears away, Alice took her cell phone out and began sending a text message. It wasn’t long after when a knock was heard at her room’s door. Upon opening it, the person who stood outside turned out to be the same man who had beaten Alice up earlier! “Is it done, miss? And here I thought that the young master would’ve already picked you up and left with you by now!” said the man with a chuckle. “Here’s the money, now get out of my sight! Also, while I did tell you to put on a great show, don’t you think you were being a little too harsh?” replied Alice angrily. “Hey, it’s all because of my intense acting skills that the young master ended up buying it! Haha! I can see that he’s fainted… Since you’ll be free for the rest of the night, why don’t we… ” “Get lost!” shouted Alice as she glared contemptuously at the man before slamming the door shut. It was true that Alice had earlier set Gerald up. After all, the only way she would be abl
