“Happreciate his cooperation. We will come to take property from you in seven days, ” Philip said.
With that, Gerald started to leave and his subordinates followed behind him.
The other guests also did not dare to stay there after witnessing the terrifying incident that had just befallen the Long family. They also rushed out after Gerald's men left.
“Dad... Why? Why did you sign it?! What's problem? We could have fought them! After all, we are not afraid of death!” shouted one of the middle-aged men.
The loud slap from Master Long was his immediate response!
“You b *star! Do you really want our whole family to be destroyed beyond the point of no return? Do you want Longs to have no descendants to leave behind ?! ” roared Master Long who glared at him ferociously as his lips continued twitching furiously.
“We were completely defeated by Crawford's siblings this time! While we have been constantly plotting against them in secret all this time, their backgrounds have been too powerful!” add Master Long while clenching his fists tightly.
“But... But dad! We have nothing now! ”
"That's right. We no longer have anything!” replied Teacher Long with a nod.
“However, we still have our history for centuries! We won't disappear from Weston that easily! Anyway, we still have the last option! ”
"A ... Last resort?"
Master Long nodded in response before saying, "Have you heard .... about the Moldell family in Yanken?"
"The Moldells...?"
He then narrowed his eyes before continuing, “About a dozen years ago, the Long family still had contact with that family. However, after a certain incident happened, we stopped all contact with them”
"What's really going on, dad?" ask one of Long.
“Huh! It all happened in the year that Second Master Moldell's son came as a guest! Because Moldells prefer to live in seclusion, her family members tend to avoid affairs outside of their own. The only exception was Second Master's son. He used the name Kort Moldell, and contrary to his entire family, he could not get away from all the sensual pleasures he could experience in the outside world!”
“Kort is an ambitious man, he is! In fact, he was so ambitious that on the day he came as a guest, he actually threatened us head-on! Simply put, he wants to be the backbone of our family. If we agreed then, he would secretly help us become an internationally famous and rich family! However, if we choose to go that route, the Long Family will basically seal their fate into nothing more than his minions!” clearly Teacher Long.
“What wishful thinking he had! Even if we were going to become internationally famous, in the end we would only become his puppets, unable to act against his orders! ” tease the eldest son of the Long family.
“And that's exactly why I turned down the offer! The Long family will have to remove our surname if we agree, take the Moldell surname instead! Even if wealth and prestige are at stake, I cannot simply abandon our surname that our ancestors have been carrying for so long!”
“Then... What happened after that? Since Kort has such great ambitions, surely he won't let you refuse so easily, right?” ask the other Long.
“But of course not! About twenty-five years ago, Kort finally took revenge on our family. Remember the incident where Shaw was attacked by someone else shortly after birth, Joel? As a result, Shaw grows into a fool who has almost no sanity!”
“Of course! Even though I want to investigate it, you won't let me! It's still a mystery to me now!”
“Yes, well.. That's what Kort did. If we investigate it, our family will eventually be destroyed. That was his way of sending us reminders!” replied Mr. Long.
Shaw is the second young master of the Long family to never appear whatever his chance. After all, he was truly a person who lacked sanity.
