Chapter 868
The moment the sack was opened, the others saw an unconscious young man who had been beaten up terribly. “S-Shane!” shouted Master Long nervously when he saw how badly beaten up the boy was. “Now, now, let’s not be impatient! There’s still more!” said Philip as he, too, stepped forward. With a swift gesture, one of Philip’s men tossed a bag over to Master Long. As it landed at his feet, its contents spilled out. “…What’s this?” “I… I recognize whose clothes these are! They’re the kind of clothes that Mr. Yunus usually wears!” shouted someone from within the crowd. “I’m sure you’ve been looking everywhere for him, right? The truth is, Yunus drove off a cliff and these tattered clothes were the only remains we could find,” explained Philip. “W-what…?” Master Long was assaulted by both immense anger and grief as he heard those words. “G-Gerald… How arrogant of you and your sister! Bullying us this way… Do you honestly think that there’s nobody capable of standing against y

“Appreciate the cooperation. We’ll come over to take the properties from you in seven days,” said Philip. With that, Gerald began leaving and his subordinates followed behind him. The other guests didn’t dare remain there either after witnessing the terrible incident that had just befallen the Long family. They, too, hurried out after Gerald’s men were gone. “Dad… Why? Why did you sign it?! What’s the big deal? We could’ve just fought against them! After all, we’re not afraid to die!” cried out one of the middle-aged men. A harsh slap from Master Long was his immediate response! “You b*stard! Do you truly want our entire family to be ruined beyond the point of no return? Do you wish for the Longs to have no descendants to leave behind?!” roared Master Long glaring at him fiercely as his lips continued twitching furiously. “We’ve been completely defeated by the Crawford siblings this time! While we’ve continuously plotted against them in secret all these years, their backgro

In response, Master Long simply sighed. “Well, that’s good too. It’s better to just let Shaw live happily…” “However, even though we haven’t contacted Kort for so many years, our family’s still continued prospering!” said Joel. “Humph! But of course! I assume Kort never launched another attack on us since his father died not too long after. Due to him passing on, Kort was involved in a fight for the post of the Moldell family’s second master. That naturally meant that he wouldn’t have had the time to bother us for a good, long while. While I’m not sure what became of him, based on the fact that he’s a natural schemer, it wouldn’t be far-fetched to assume that he truly did end up becoming the Moldell family’s second master.” “I see… Do you plan to get help from Kort to deal with the Crawfords?” asked Joel who was starting to see the bigger picture now. “Well, your guess is half right. I’m not directly asking him for help. After all, if I do that, then as I’ve said before, the

“Hey sis, I know you were hurt by Narc once but take a look at his wife. She’s such a materialistic person!” Yselle said. Winnie glared at her angrily. “Shut up! How many times did I tell you not to remind me of him! Don’t even get me started with that woman!” “Y-yes...I know, sis. I know how much you hate that dreaded woman. I swear I won’t repeat this again!” Yselle's eyes were tearing up as she spoke.Realizing that she had been too harsh, Winnie caressed Yselle’s head and said, “I’m just trying to look out for you. That Gerald guy reeks of money. He only has what all materialistic people want. Money. He doesn’t deserve to have any ties with our family. We are only here to help him on behalf of our master’s son, to keep our promise with them. We, the Moldells’ unlike the rest of the world, take our promises seriously!” “So, even if you have the slightest feelings for Gerald, there is no way the both of you could be together. I’ll definitely stand against it!” There was a glim

He was a man in his sixties but he looked as if he was only 50. He had a pair of sharp and bright eyes that would create a sense of unease in the person who stood before his gaze. “Why can’t we collaborate?” Parker asked. “Master Parker, I understand that your son was rescued by the Yalemans and that you owe them the favor. However, you broke the rules when you made a promise with them to help out the Crawfords!” “But you must know that Crawford's eldest heir, Gerald, has offended one of my good friends, the Long family. Hence, I demand an explanation from you folks on behalf of the Long family!” “Do you think you’ll still be able to help them now?” Kort said. Even though Kort addressed the 90-year-old Parker as ‘Master’, he was just the third master of the family and Kort was one step above him. Kort, being the Second Master, had a position that was higher than that of Parker in the family.“Long family?” Gerald started pondering what the Long family had to do with the Mold

“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
Chapter 874
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
Chapter 875
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
