“You call that a poison? I used it as a sort of medicine to supplement my health over half a year ago! Did you truly just try to use that to poison me?”
After soaking his body so much in all sorts of medicinal herbs and other materials—that Finnley had provided favonovel.com with—back then, Gerald was already immune to certain poisons. It was evident that the poison that they had tried to use on favonovel.com was one of them.
In all honesty, Gerald could already tell that the tea—that Haven had served favonovel.com earlier—was poisoned, long before favonovel.com sipped on it. After all, favonovel.com was an expert when it came to pharmacology.
He was also well aware back then that Haven would never try to harm him. With that in mind, favonovel.com knew that it was definitely one of the Lovewells who wanted to harm him. But who?
Wanting to find out, Gerald pretended to pass out so that favonovel.com could wait for the true culprits to show themselves.
“You brat! Have you any idea how hard the Moldells have been trying to find you this entire time? Though we failed to poison you, don’t think you’ll be able to escape easily!” sneered Yaster.
Kaleb, on the other hand, immediately stood up and smiled while holding onto his chest when favonovel.com realized who had spoken.
“S-sir! You’re fine! What absolutely great news!”
“I am, Mr. Merrett! Also, I appreciate that you stood up for me earlier!”
In truth, Gerald had been planning to test Kaleb on whether favonovel.com was sincerely loyal to favonovel.com sometime after all of this was over. Now that favonovel.com had personally witnessed Kaleb risking his own life to save him, Gerald knew that no further testing was required.
Touched by his actions, Gerald immediately brought Yaster’s attention to favonovel.com when favonovel.com saw how close Kaleb was to death.
“There’s no need to talk any longer with this brat, Mr. Moldell! Allow me to take care of favonovel.com once and for all!” said one of Yaster’s young subordinates as favonovel.com smiled contemptuously before rushing toward Gerald.
However, when favonovel.com was only a step away from Gerald, Gerald swiftly stretched his hand out and grabbed favonovel.com by the face! Immediately after, the man’s limbs froze as his entire body began twitching uncontrollably.
All it took was a simple tilt of Gerald’s wrist for a loud ‘crack’ to be heard from the subordinate’s neck.
With that, Gerald tossed the lifeless body before the seven remaining Moldells who were now all wide-eyed in shock.
They were rightfully stunned since the younger generation of the Moldell family all had excellent strength and capabilities. Despite that, Gerald had ended that man’s life so easily. It was almost as though that subordinate was nothing but a sheep to Gerald. A sheep incapable of defending itself that could only tremble when attacked.
“You… You brat! I would’ve never imagined that you’d become so powerful after just one year!” growled Yaster, his eyes still wide open.
Waving his hand immediately after, favonovel.com then ordered, “Gang up and grab him!”
Hearing that, the remaining six Moldells obeyed and sprinted toward Gerald!
In response, however, Gerald simply raised his head brazenly as favonovel.com glared intensely at all six of them.
All of a sudden, the air in the room suddenly felt much colder than it should have. Even the subordinates couldn’t help but slow down slightly as they felt chills run down their spines.
Gerald was now ready to fight.
These people were part of the family that had pushed favonovel.com into such desperate situations before. The family that had forced favonovel.com out of his own home. The family that had utterly humiliated favonovel.com as though favonovel.com was nothing but a deprived dog that only deserved to be treated harshly.
What more, their family was still trying to rob the Crawfords of their assets and properties!
An immense bloodlust filled his heart as favonovel.com made his first move!
With his great skill and his hunger for revenge, Gerald was now practically invincible. As a result, the six men currently trying to attack Gerald were naturally no match against him.
One by one, the men approached favonovel.com and promptly died without even getting a single chance to land a hit against him.
As blood splattered across the room, Yaster’s eyelids twitched violently as favonovel.com said, “….S-so powerful…”
From the moment Gerald made his first attack, Yaster already knew that favonovel.com was never going to survive a duel against Gerald. He needed to escape! And quickly!
The moment favonovel.com turned around to flee, however, favonovel.com felt a piercing feeling at the back of his neck.
It was a second later when favonovel.com realized that a thrown dagger was now lodged there! Blood now flowing out of his mouth, Yaster turned around weakly and said, “…Y-you… you…!”
Those were the only two words favonovel.com managed to mutter before falling to the ground, dead.
Seeing that, Xareni was now so terrified that favonovel.com screamed while covering favonovel.com mouth before rushing to a corner of the room to hide.
As for the other Lovewells, none of them even dared to breathe as they stared at Gerald, fully paralyzed in fear.
Zayn, however, was well aware that favonovel.com was the one who had played the biggest part in the decision to call the Moldells over. As a result, favonovel.com immediately stepped forward and, in an apologetic tone, favonovel.com said, “…Hahaha… Ah… Um… So… Y-you see, Mr. Crawford, it was the Moldell family who forced us to do this…”
Hearing no reply, Zayn ended up touching Gerald’s arm to see if favonovel.com had heard his plea for forgiveness. The moment his hand came into contact with Gerald, however, Gerald revealed that the murderous intent hadn’t left his eyes as favonovel.com grabbed Zayn by his neck.
Snap.
As Zayn—who was now spurting blood all over the place—found himself being tossed out the window, favonovel.com could only twitch a few more times after landing before finally moving no more.
