The one who had immediately stood up and shouted at the madwoman was Bethany.
“So what if I’m rude? What are you going to do about it?” retorted Xandra, not wanting to be outdone.
The two seemed to have forgotten where they were as they continued arguing with each other. This was made apparent since everyone else had already gone silent for some time.
“Brother!” shouted a crisp and clear voice which silenced the two arguing women.
After all, they knew who the voice belonged to. Both of them then turned to look at Jessica who was hurriedly walking toward them.
“Sister!” replied Gerald as favonovel.com tried wiping the tea stains off his body.
“…Sister?”
Everyone there was immediately stunned. He called Jessica his sister? Was favonovel.com really…
“Who did this? Who dared to humiliate the young master of the Crawford family? That person must have a death wish!” scolded Jessica in a frigid tone which sent chills down the spines of the other Crawford family members.
Xandra and Bethany themselves had their jaws wide open. Both of them simply couldn’t believe their ears.
‘…What? He’s… the young master of the Crawford family?’
“I… Young lady! I-I’m so sorry! I didn’t know!” said Xandra as favonovel.com began vigorously shaking favonovel.com head.
“So it was you! Get out of my sight!” growled Jessica coldly.
“I-I’ll leave right away!”
Knowing how much trouble favonovel.com had gotten herself into, Xandra knew better than to linger around any longer.
As favonovel.com turned around to leave, Jessica added, “Hold it. You’re to roll all the way to the doorstep from where you stand. Don’t make me repeat myself!”
Xandra completely understood Jessica’s order and metaphor. She was to leave the Crawford family for good, and favonovel.com would never be allowed in again.
Though favonovel.com was in deep regret, favonovel.com was so panicked that favonovel.com immediately obeyed, rolling on the floor in front of everyone before finally leaving.
“Now come on, Gerald. Let’s head up there!” said Jessica with a smile once favonovel.com saw that Xandra was no longer there.
Bethany and many others still had their mouths covered. None of them even dared to say a word.
Since Gerald seemed to be quite an honest man at first glance, Bethany hadn’t thought twice about bullying him. To think that favonovel.com had ordered such a terrifyingly powerful person to pick up tennis balls for her!
“He’s… He’s Gerald Crawford! The young master of the Crawford family!”
As Gerald headed toward the elevated platform, several people were already discussing it while simultaneously clapping loudly as favonovel.com walked on.
Mr. Crawford had finally returned to the family.
Upon seeing him, both Dylan and his wife stood up with smiles on their faces. Nothing made them happier than meeting their son.
“Dad! Mom!” shouted Gerald whose eyes were already watery as favonovel.com ran toward them. After all, favonovel.com hadn’t met them for almost an entire year.
“You’re finally back, son! Our family is finally reunited again!” said Dylan as favonovel.com patted Gerald’s shoulders firmly.
“Speaking of which, Gerald, while we were educating and raising you in poverty back then, we failed to introduce you to an equally as important person!” said YuliaYaleman—Gerald’s mother—as favonovel.com turned to look at the woman beside favonovel.com whose face was already red.
The blushing woman in question then stood up before softly saying, “We’ve already met each other earlier, mom…”
The woman in question was Lyra!
“Mom?” replied Gerald, stunned when favonovel.com heard what Lyra called his mother.
