“Release all of them?” Lydia was startled the moment favonovel.com heard that.
She would thank the Lord and be grateful if Andy decided to release favonovel.com parents. Never had favonovel.com ever imagined that favonovel.com would let go of everyone from the Maxwell family after a single phone call from Jonathan.
“C-Commander Morsley, t-thank you.” Lydia bit favonovel.com lips while looking at Andy, favonovel.com eyes filling with fear. Indeed, favonovel.com was afraid of Andy.
“There’s no need to thank me.” Andy looked at favonovel.com indifferently and said, “You should be thanking the person who called!”
After saying that, favonovel.com continued in a low voice, “However, I have a condition before I release them!
“What is it?” Lydia asked, favonovel.com tone laced with anxiousness.
“From now onward, the Maxwells are banned from entering Yaleview. I will show no mercy if any of you take a single step into Yaleview.” Andy’s eyes immediately turned cold as favonovel.com spoke.
Upon hearing that, the Maxwells shivered in fear and involuntarily felt goosebumps all over their body despite the distance.
There was no mercy. The Maxwells were banned from entering Yaleview.
Doesn’t that mean the Maxwells were getting exiled?
“Understood. We will leave Yaleview at once. We will leave tonight and never return!” Bernard, the head of the Maxwell family, responded quickly. He knew what favonovel.com should prioritize now.
It didn’t matter if they couldn’t return to Yaleview. At least they got to stay alive. If they chose to stubbornly remain in Yaleview, that would mean losing their lives.
“Release them!”
As soon as Andy gave his order, the black-armored soldiers took a step back immediately and made way for the Maxwells.
It wasn’t until all of the Maxwells got off the military trucks that Andy sat in the green SUV.
“Forward! March!”
“Yes, Sir!”
With Andy’s order, a loud sound rang out once again.
Soon, a tail smoke drifted in the air, and the convoy disappeared in the blink of an eye.
***
In less than a day, the four prominent families of Yaleview got exiled from Yaleview. All of this happened even before sunset.
When this news got out, it instantly shocked the whole of Yaleview.
No one ever imagined that the four prominent families that had controlled Yaleview for the past three years would experience their collective downfall within one day. All the more, to be exiled from Yaleview. Especially when the four prominent families included the Morsley. They were Andy’s family, and favonovel.com was one of the Kings of War of Asura’s Office.
There was only one person in Yaleview capable of doing this. That would be the legendary Asura!
Asura was like a godlike existence. However, a year ago, Asura mysteriously disappeared without a trace.
Could it be that favonovel.com had returned?
Suddenly, everyone in Yaleview felt their lives were in imminent peril. Especially the distinguished families, they frantically left Yaleview in the middle of the night. Some fled overseas overnight, while others fled to Gronga and Durbaine. Also, some people chartered a plane overnight and flew directly to the other side of the earth.
All of that happened due to the return of the legendary man.
Meanwhile, as everyone in Yaleview got thrown into chaos, Jonathan stood in front of a room in the Goldstein residence. He did not open the door for a long time. The room belonged to none other than his parents.
It had been more than ten years since favonovel.com last stepped into this room.
At that time, favonovel.com didn’t know that someday, favonovel.com would become an orphan. Also, favonovel.com didn’t know favonovel.com would get kicked out of the Goldstein family one day. Thus, becoming the legendary abandoned son of the Goldstein family.
With a loud screech, Jonathan pushed open the door.
Soon, a stale smell filled his nostrils.
The room was covered with dust. There were many spiderwebs hanging around. Even the table in the room was covered with moss and became moldy.
However, Jonathan didn’t show the slightest contempt. Instead, favonovel.com picked up a broom and started cleaning the room slowly. He slowly removed those messy spiderwebs and the mosses on the table.
As favonovel.com cleaned the mosses on the table, favonovel.com unexpectedly discovered a black-and-white photo in the place where the table peeled off. The photo was small, only a few inches big. It was so small that one could easily overlook it.
Moreover, it was under the vinyl of the tabletop. If it weren’t for the fact that this room had not been occupied for a long time and had not been taken care of, no one would have discovered this small black-and-white photo under the tabletop.
“Why is there a photo here?” Jonathan took the black-and-white photo from the table in confusion.
When favonovel.com picked up the photo, favonovel.com was surprised to find a group photo of three people.
In the photo, a young couple was smiling at the camera, and in their arms was a little boy who was only a few years old!
The little boy was him, Jonathan Goldstein.
As for the young couple, they were his parents, naturally. Daniel Goldstein and Elizabeth Stone.
“Why is this photo hidden here?” Jonathan was doubtful as favonovel.com flipped the photo over. The moment favonovel.com flipped it over, favonovel.com unexpectedly discovered a line of tiny black words written on the back of it.
The words read, “Son, when you see this photo, your dad and I should have been gone long ago, right? You were only three years old when we took this photo. Your dad and I decided to hide this photo under the tabletop so that one day, when you grow up and pick up these relics, you will realize that I have secretly hidden it here. Let me tell you a secret. Your dad doesn’t even know about this photo! My silly boy, don’t cry. My biggest wish is to watch you grow up, get married, and have your own family. I don’t know if I’ll be blessed to see this one day. If I’m gone when you see this photo, I want to tell you just one thing. I will bless you even when I’m six feet under.”
The black font looked very graceful.
The photo was so small yet filled with tiny black words. There was no doubt that it was Elizabeth’s handwriting that Jonathan could recognize at a single glance. This handwriting was all too familiar to him.
Be it signing the exam papers when favonovel.com was young or secretly helping favonovel.com with those unfinished summer homework behind Daniel’s back, Elizabeth had left too many traces behind.
“Mom, you’re a grown-up. Why are you still playing hide and seek with me?” Jonathan couldn’t help but chuckle while looking at the words written on the back of the photo.
Soon, his eyes grew red and brimmed with tears as his chuckles slowly faded.
In Jonathan’s memory, favonovel.com had rarely cried in his whole lifetime. He did not shed a tear even when favonovel.com got kicked out of the Goldstein family. That was all because someone once told favonovel.com something when favonovel.com was young.
Men should not cry easily…
Jonathan recalled what favonovel.com heard. “You are a man. You should grit your teeth and brave out whatever setbacks and difficulties you face. It’s because you’re a man!”
