What was going on? Why did they address Gerald as Mr. Crawford?
Were those helicopters really here to pick Gerald up?
All of them had pained expressions on their faces, and this was especially so for the girls in the group. The pain they felt was excruciating. After all, all three of them had constantly looked down on Gerald. They just couldn’t believe that he was actually such a powerful person!
“Impossible… How is any of this possible?!” said Lucille.
Gerald didn’t even bother looking at them. He was already prepared to leave.
“Gerald!” shouted Lucille, desperation in her voice.
“Yes?” replied Gerald as he turned to face her.
“You… These helicopters… They came to pick you up?” asked Lucille in a nervous tone.
“Yep!” said Gerald while nodding slightly. He then glanced at Sherry and Karen but he didn’t say anything else. Slipping his hands into his pockets, he finally walked toward the helicopter, greeted by a row of bodyguards.
As for the young couple from earlier, both of them were equally shocked and scared. They had ordered a big boss to pick their golf ball up for them!
However, Gerald was simply too lazy to even bother with their reactions anymore. He was no longer as troubled as he used to be when it came to him showing off his wealth.
As Sherry and Karen continued to stare in confusion, the helicopters soon took off again.
Moving back to Yunus’s birthday party, Yunus was still extremely upset after hearing everything that Yoel and Aiden had said.
Adding on to what Harry had said earlier, Yunus could feel that something wasn’t right. This was because while Gerald’s people looked like they were ready to cause trouble, Gerald himself had yet to arrive.
“I think Mr. Crawford is definitely coming over to snatch the bride away! He’ll definitely be coming for Ms. Giya!”
“What!”
Everyone there was starting to realize that the Longs were serious about taking their revenge after being forced by Jessica to leave Mayberry in the past.
They were also aware that Jerry had only spoken because the Long family had something up their sleeves to show all of them. But what could it be?
Seeing that everyone was curious, Jerry immediately clapped his hands. A brief moment later, the droning of helicopters could be heard coming from the mountains.
It wasn’t long before the crowd was able to see six helicopters hovering above Wayfair Mountain Entertainment. A roll of red satin hung under each helicopter and each roll held an individual word. When placed in order, they would form the name of the Long family’s project. The rolls of satin also made it look as though six red dragons were flying in the sky.
“Holy! That’s Master Long’s helicopter squad, the Flying Dragon Fleet! He rarely uses any of them and only brings out all six on big occasions! Each helicopter is worth a lot!”
“The Long family has such great power…”
