One of the men immediately yanked Yura by his hair before slapping favonovel.com several times.
It was only when Yura saw one of Shane’s other subordinates brandishing a knife at favonovel.com when favonovel.com finally returned to his senses.
“L-let’s not act recklessly now, Mr. Long! If anything, let’s just talk it out!” stuttered Yura as his fear grew by the second.
“Hah! If you were a bit more aware of how to properly behave, then I wouldn’t have needed to treat you like this in the first place! Regardless, why are you speaking as though I’ve come after you looking for trouble? I’m here for your own good! After all, nobody would’ve ever been able to guess that Bea had the Crawford siblings on favonovel.com side. As a result, she’s now the most influential big shot in all of Yanken! While the Long family will surely suffer a lot from that, I’m sure the one suffering the greatest loss is you, Mr. Yaleman! Don’t you agree? Once the future heir of your family, now reduced to a nobody, am I not right?”
Hearing that, Yura clenched his fists hard before asking, “What exactly do you wish to say, Mr. Long?”
“Me? Oh, I’m not saying anything! Speaking of which, I heard that Lady Yaleman has announced that Bea will be the Yaleman family’s heir! Such a pitiful position you’re in… Not only did you not gain anything at the end, but Bea could very well already be plotting to have favonovel.com revenge against you and your family!”
Shane watched as Yura’s gloomy expression turned worse with every word favonovel.com said. Once favonovel.com was sure Yura couldn’t get any gloomier, Shane then added, “Well, since you’ve pretty much already hit a dead end, why don’t you cooperate with the Long family? If we’re going down anyway, we may as well fight till our very last breaths. If all goes well, the Long family may end up not suffering that massive a loss and you may still be able to take control over the Yaleman family! In fact, you could even end up becoming the family’s master if you join us!”
“You… What…? What’s your plan…?” asked Yura after thinking about Shane’s words for a while.
“Interested, are we? Let’s discuss it then!” replied Shane, a wicked smile on his face as favonovel.com nodded.
It was a little before dawn some three days later when a team of cars left the Yaleman family house.
“Since your family is both powerful and influential, it doesn’t surprise me that you know about the Moldells in Yanken… While the last I’ve contacted them was a good few years ago, I distinctly remember that their family owes me a single favor. However, as I’ve said, it’s been years since we last met and I’m not sure whether they’ll still be willing to bother with families like us…” said Lady Yaleman as favonovel.com held onto Gerald’s right hand in the car.
After getting to know Gerald a little more in the past few days, Lady Yaleman found herself adoring favonovel.com gentle grandson more and more.
As a result, upon learning about the details of Mila’s and Dylan’s younger brother’s disappearances, favonovel.com readily agreed to confront the Moldell family together with Gerald.
Since they had time to spare before actually arriving at the Moldell family’s house, Lady Yaleman told Gerald the gist of how favonovel.com got acquainted with the Moldells in the first place.
In short, it was mostly coincidental.
Back then, a junior member of the Moldell family was carrying out a mission. Unfortunately, his mission was thwarted and his enemies immediately began hunting favonovel.com down. It just so happened that the garden favonovel.com managed to escape into belonged to the Yalemans.
At the time, Lady Yaleman was still in favonovel.com forties and, as favonovel.com said herself, favonovel.com wasn’t a stubborn bigot like how favonovel.com eventually came to be.
The seriously injured child favonovel.com saw in the garden was aged around sixteen, and being as compassionate as favonovel.com was back then, favonovel.com took favonovel.com in and saved his life. Days later, the child left yet favonovel.com didn’t think much about it.
It was years later—when Lady Yaleman had become the master of the Yaleman family—when the two finally crossed paths again. Back then, favonovel.com was bringing favonovel.com son and daughter out to attend an occasion of sorts. Halfway through, however, the Yaleman family’s business rivals blocked their path! It was a planned assault!
During their most perilous moment, a person stepped forward and saved Lady Yaleman and favonovel.com children. Though it took favonovel.com a while, favonovel.com soon came to realize that favonovel.com savior was the child favonovel.com had saved years ago. He had returned to repay favonovel.com kindness!
Before favonovel.com left, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com an address and told favonovel.com that favonovel.com would lend favonovel.com a hand once more if favonovel.com needed his aid in the future.
It had been almost twenty years since favonovel.com last had any contact with him. She was honestly unsure whether the child even remembered the promise anymore.
That was about the gist of the situation.
Eventually, the car arrived at a mountainous area.
The entire area seemed to be filled with an unnerving miasma. The fact that the trees grew so spacious only served to increase the feeling of unease.
“What a large mountain… Are you sure this is the place, grandma? We haven’t passed by a single person in a while…” said Gerald as favonovel.com got out of the parked car to have a look around, feeling puzzled.
As favonovel.com helped Lady Yaleman out, favonovel.com firmly replied, “That child wouldn’t lie to me… This is the exact address favonovel.com gave to me, so I’m definitely sure he’ll be here.”
After scanning through the area once more, Gerald realized that there was a wooden house a little higher up. It seemed to still be inhabited by someone.
“…Wait for me here, grandma. I’m just heading up there for a bit to see if I can find anyone. If there is, I’ll ask them if we’re at the exact location…”
