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 favonovel.com 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 you some face today. I’ll remember the Crawfords from now on!” He waved his hand and left.
Dylan gave up his own son to protect their family’s assets. If things continued going downhill, favonovel.com might be forced to do something even more insane.
If the Crawfords were to fight them with all of their power, Kort would never stand a chance.
Hence, it was not a good idea for favonovel.com to linger around.
Even though Gerald’s farewell gave favonovel.com no excuse to attack, Kort knew that favonovel.com would still be the key to swallowing the entire Crawford family and favonovel.com wasn’t at all fazed.
He left at the right time…
“Master Kort, are we really going to give up the Crawfords like that? They hold the most assets and it could be ten times more than what you have established at Logan Province!” One of Kort’s subordinates said after they left the island.
“Do you think I’m that dumb? It’s just not the right time to take them head-on now. We have too many enemies in our own family now. Even if we really conquered the Crawfords, we’d be left defenseless against the rest of the branches of our family.”
“We have to think of a plan that could kill two birds with one stone and it must be used on Gerald!” Kort squinted.
“Then we will have Gerald in our hands no matter where favonovel.com is and favonovel.com won’t be able to run away!” His subordinates smiled and nodded.
That night at the harbor of Hong Kong, Gerald brought along his luggage and walked down from the ship.
Gerald was emotional when favonovel.com reminisced about the past 6 months. Everything felt like a dream to him. He transformed from a poor, disgusting student who was worth less than a pile of dirt to a rich and wealthy heir.
Now, favonovel.com was far poorer than before this all even started. He knew that sacrifices would have to be made in order to secure peace for his family in the long term.
Gerald was not afraid of being poor but favonovel.com was afraid that favonovel.com might not see the sun of tomorrow.
Even though it was late, there were still many people at the harbor. As Gerald walked further out, favonovel.com glanced backward. There were at least ten people following him.
‘Am I going to die here tonight?’
Gerald held his fist tightly. He was not afraid, but feeling his impending doom, Gerald still felt the urge to keep on fighting. He wanted to live on no matter what.
Gerald hastened his pace.
The people following favonovel.com were not ordinary men, as they immediately chased after him.
Suddenly, the blinding headlights of a car and the sound of tires skidding filled the air at one of Hong Kong’s many harbors.
