Bea’s disappearance had caused a massive uproar among those living in Yanken, and that included several big shots from Jacksonville. Since they were aware that Mr. Crawford wasn’t around, they had personally sent their own subordinates out to search for Bea in the meantime. While they did suspect a few people to be involved, in the end, there simply weren’t enough clues to go with. Bea just seemed to have vanished into thin air! Though Catherine herself wanted to contact the Crawfords from Northbay, only Bea had the means to contact them! Nobody else knew how to even get to them! They weren’t even sure if Bea was still alive. After all, it had already been seven days since anyone had seen her. From the day she realized that her daughter could very well already be dead, Catherine had had an extremely haggard expression etched on her face. Today, the Yaleman family’s members were all gathered to discuss how to progress with Bea’s disappearance. Though everyone at the meeting was

“Mom… Aren’t we being a bit too cruel…? Gerald’s not to be trifled with! If the truth ever gets out and Jessica realizes that we were involved…” Within their own room, Yura was now talking in an extremely worried manner to his mother. In response, Rose sneered, “In for a penny, in for a pound! It’s not like we can help it! We were already running out of options from the moment we decided to snatch the right to inherit the Yaleman family from Bea. With Gerald dead, we won’t have any more enemies! If we’re lucky, the properties up North—that Gerald gave Bea—may even eventually fall into our hands!” assured Rose. “For now, we can only pray that Sheldon doesn’t mess up. After all, I’m aware of how much Gerald trusts that butler!” added the villainous mother. “But… But what if someone finds out about the poison?” “Worry not, the poison I picked was both colorless and odorless. Besides, even if someone does manage to detect the poison, Sheldon’s the one who technically killed Mr. C

“How truly luxurious!” added the other women in surprise. Curious to know what kinds of big shots drove such expensive-looking cars, Marilyn and the others chose to wait near the door to see who got out. A few of them even got their compact mirrors out and started touching up their makeup! After all, if the ones who got out of the car were rich, young heirs, who’s to say that they wouldn’t end up falling for one of them? Haha! Eventually, a group of black-suited bodyguards got out of the cars before finally opening the door to the most expensive-looking car. Out stepped a rather familiar-looking rich heir… “…Hey. Isn’t… Isn’t that Gerald?” asked Marilyn, stupefied by what she was seeing. “Giya, that’s… That’s Gerald, isn’t it?” repeated Marilyn as she started hopping excitedly in place. In response, Giya nodded before saying, “It is!” “My god! Gerald… To think that he actually has a team of cars… What exactly is going on here…?” Her shock was warranted since previously,

“Appreciate the cooperation. We’ll come over to take the properties from you in seven days,” said Philip. With that, Gerald began leaving and his subordinates followed behind him. The other guests didn’t dare remain there either after witnessing the terrible incident that had just befallen the Long family. They, too, hurried out after Gerald’s men were gone. “Dad… Why? Why did you sign it?! What’s the big deal? We could’ve just fought against them! After all, we’re not afraid to die!” cried out one of the middle-aged men. A harsh slap from Master Long was his immediate response! “You b*stard! Do you truly want our entire family to be ruined beyond the point of no return? Do you wish for the Longs to have no descendants to leave behind?!” roared Master Long glaring at him fiercely as his lips continued twitching furiously. “We’ve been completely defeated by the Crawford siblings this time! While we’ve continuously plotted against them in secret all these years, their backgro

“Hey sis, I know you were hurt by Narc once but take a look at his wife. She’s such a materialistic person!” Yselle said. Winnie glared at her angrily. “Shut up! How many times did I tell you not to remind me of him! Don’t even get me started with that woman!” “Y-yes...I know, sis. I know how much you hate that dreaded woman. I swear I won’t repeat this again!” Yselle's eyes were tearing up as she spoke.Realizing that she had been too harsh, Winnie caressed Yselle’s head and said, “I’m just trying to look out for you. That Gerald guy reeks of money. He only has what all materialistic people want. Money. He doesn’t deserve to have any ties with our family. We are only here to help him on behalf of our master’s son, to keep our promise with them. We, the Moldells’ unlike the rest of the world, take our promises seriously!” “So, even if you have the slightest feelings for Gerald, there is no way the both of you could be together. I’ll definitely stand against it!” There was a glim
