Hearing that, Gerald felt himself gulp.
He then wondered how Finnley would fare against that family. However, he quickly shook the thought away. After all, his focus shouldn’t be on making comparisons now.
Rather, he knew that he had to find a way to get the Moldell family’s help. After all, their family would be an incredibly strong ally to have.
“The Moldells live in seclusion most of the time. Even I wouldn’t contact them if it wasn’t our last resort. However, your uncle held on to a very important secret relating to the Crawford family’s bloodline. If the secret had gotten out from the time he went missing, our family would’ve already been ruined by the time your generation came to be! Now that I know that there’s a chance that he’s still alive, I’m left with no other option but to seek the Moldell family’s help for fear that the secret may one day leak out!”
It was clear that Dylan wasn’t only looking for his uncle because he was family. The other reason was to protect the secrets of the Crawford family’s bloodline.
“The secret of our bloodline?” asked Gerald.
“Yes I heard about it from your grandpa sometime around then, but let’s not talk about that for the time being. The priority now is to get help from the Moldells!”
“Do you want me to go there, dad?” asked Gerald.
“If going there and talking to them was all that needed to be done, I would’ve already asked for their help a long time ago. I told you, the Moldells live in seclusion. They never interfere with things that happen outside their family. However, there is a person who could potentially help us get in.”
“Who is it?”
“Your grandmother from your mother’s side.”
