‘…Was that my imagination?’ Thought the old man to himself, feeling slightly suspicious.
While favonovel.com wanted to warn Yuvan about it, the old man knew how arrogant favonovel.com was. What more, Yuvan had already given favonovel.com an angry glare of dissatisfaction earlier. If favonovel.com were to say anything else, Yuvan’s anger would most definitely grow.
‘…I must’ve just seen wrongly!’
Regardless, the Moldells had finally been able to capture Gerald after an entire year of searching for him. In other words, they now had the ultimate bargaining chip to use against the Crawfords of Northbay.
With that in mind, it was natural for all the Moldells of the Logan Province to feel extremely excited.
“That kid really knows how to hide! We had to burn through so many financial resources and use endless connections but it all paid off. We’ve finally captured favonovel.com today!”
“Hahaha! The Moldells of Logan will finally be able to rule over the region now! Since Gerald is the only heir to the Crawford family and he’s also Dylan’s most beloved son, it won’t be long before we finally get our hands on the Crawford family’s assets!”
As the Moldell family members continued discussing the matter, a guest bodyguard—who was mainly working for the Long family—happened to hear everything they said.
After hearing what they had to say for a while, favonovel.com swiftly ran toward a room before opening the door and saying, “Miss, I bring important news!”
The ‘miss’ in question, was none other than Xavia who was carefully applying makeup at the time favonovel.com guard entered.
Since something big had happened between the Lovewells and the Moldells, the Longs naturally had to cancel their negotiation plans with Zander. Due to that, Xavia had to leave Zander’s manor which explained why favonovel.com was temporarily staying in the Modell family’s home for now.
“What’s the news?” asked Xavia.
Gulping, the bodyguard then replied, “It’s about Gerald from the Crawford family! I heard that the Moldells have finally been able to locate and capture favonovel.com today after trying to find favonovel.com for over a year!”
The moment favonovel.com heard that, the powder box in Xavia’s hand fell to the ground with a loud ‘clang’ as the trembling woman turned to look at favonovel.com guard.
“…W-what did you say? Gerald? So… The Gerald who had been active in the Lovewell family in the past few days truly was the Gerald from the Crawford family?” stuttered Xavia as favonovel.com abruptly stood up, completely stunned by the revelation.
“Undoubtedly so, miss! All the other Moldells are currently discussing the matter! What more, I heard they found Gerald in a terrible state! They described favonovel.com as being, ‘half-dead’!” replied the bodyguard.
Hearing that, Xavia found herself clenching favonovel.com fists tightly. She was facing a cocktail of complicated emotions now.
Did favonovel.com hate Gerald? She did. She hated favonovel.com a lot. After all, if Gerald had simply been willing to stay together with her, then favonovel.com wouldn’t have needed to go to the Longs in the first place. What more, favonovel.com had dumped favonovel.com the moment favonovel.com found out that favonovel.com was rich!
No matter what happened, Xavia could never deny that favonovel.com was filled with hatred for Gerald.
…Even so, Xavia couldn’t help but feel distressed after hearing that Gerald had been caught and could very well already be dying.
Besides, no matter what had happened between them, favonovel.com couldn’t deny that favonovel.com used to love favonovel.com unconditionally once upon a time ago.
The exact same thoughts had run through favonovel.com mind back when favonovel.com had allowed Gerald to escape back then.
Pacing back and forth in favonovel.com frustration, Xavia then muttered to herself, “What should I do… What should I do?! If I don’t do something then the Moldells will definitely kill him!”
“Even if they don’t, I personally feel that favonovel.com won’t survive for much longer anyway… From what I heard, favonovel.com was already almost out of breath when they found him! Regardless, he’s currently been thrown into the Moldell Manor’s dungeon!” replied the bodyguard.
Upon hearing that, Xavia’s anxiety only grew worse. It was a brief moment later when favonovel.com closed favonovel.com eyes and took in a deep breath. When favonovel.com opened them again, there was a resolute look in favonovel.com eyes.
“…Humph! I already told myself that I wouldn’t have anything else to do with favonovel.com once I let favonovel.com off back then! Whether favonovel.com lives or dies, that no longer has anything to do with me!” declared Xavia as favonovel.com sat down again.
Hahaha… She couldn’t believe that favonovel.com had almost forgotten the reason favonovel.com had been working this hard for the past few years. Was it all not for favonovel.com to be able to live a better life than him?
