Chapter 809 Pamela Appears
Lucas’s appearance immediately sparked a commotion in the auction hall.
Ever since Lucas showed his skills at the competition and became the overlord of California and Oregon with his undisputable strength, he had become a popular figure that everyone in California knew.
Everyone qualified to be invited to the auction today was from a powerful and wealthy family in California, so they naturally knew Lucas.
“Wow, I didn’t expect Mr. Gray, the overlord of two states, to show up too!”
“Mr. Gray, are you also interested in the plots of land being auctioned today? If you’re also interested in the plot I have my sights on, I’ll have to give up!”
“That’s for sure! Mr. Gray is now the overlord of two states. Who would be so blind as to compete with him? Do they have a death wish?!”
“Hey, I just hope that Mr. Gray and I haven’t taken a liking to the same plot of land. Otherwise, I’ll have made a wasted trip!”
All the people present were whispering among each other. But many people already seemed frustrated and dejected because they were extremely worried about the final result of the auction.
But Lucas didn’t care. He found an empty seat and sat down.
His purpose in coming here was to acquire the land by the river, and he wasn’t interested in the other plots of land.
Afterward, Oscar and Invincible Phantom Hands entered the auction venue.
Since neither of them was from a top family in San Francisco, almost no one recognized them. They merely glanced at them curiously before looking away.
But before Oscar took his seat, he took a deep look at Lucas with confidence and menace.
Lucas was indeed not easy to deal with, as he didn’t accept any cajoling or threats.
Since he dared to force Vince, the former successor of the Smiths, to kneel on the floor and apologize in front of the top families of California, Lucas was clearly extremely courageous and had no scruples about the Smiths.
So when Oscar came to California with the mission his family gave him, he deliberately brought the family’s elite bodyguard, Invincible Phantom Hands, to protect him so as to avoid the humiliating and embarrassing incident that had happened to Vince.
Oscar originally thought that Lucas would be scrupulous about a top bodyguard like Invincible Phantom Hands. But he actually had a calm and somewhat mocking expression, seemingly not taking Invincible Phantom Hands seriously.
He was determined to make Lucas pay for his arrogance!
“Hello, Mr. Gray, we meet again!”
Soon after Lucas sat down, a beautiful and ethereal figure appeared beside him and greeted him sweetly while stretching her fair hand out.
Lucas raised his head and saw a beautiful face with supple skin.
This ravishing beauty was Pamela, Cheyenne’s cousin, whom Lucas met last night.
Before Lucas said anything, everyone exclaimed in amazement.
“What a beautiful woman! Which family is she from? How come I’ve never seen her before?”
“She doesn’t seem to be from Orange County. She’s really gorgeous! I’ve never seen such a beautiful woman!”
“I heard that Mr. Gray’s wife was known as the most gorgeous beauty in Orange County! She shouldn’t be any worse than this woman here! They’re both breathtakingly beautiful!”
“But this woman has an impressive bodyguard following behind her, so she seems to be from a powerful family. I wonder if she’s from California.”
“It’d be great if we could find out her name and where she’s from later. Hehe!”
Most of the people present were wealthy men, and most men were attracted to beautiful women.
Pamela’s appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people and sparked numerous discussions.
If not for the fact that this beautiful woman was standing beside Lucas and chatting with him, many suits would have likely surrounded Pamela already. But now, they were too afraid to disturb Lucas.
Lucas looked at Pamela calmly before looking away and ignoring her outstretched hand.
Pamela felt a little awkward, and her outstretched hand began trembling slightly.
Over the years, no one had ever been able to ignore her great beauty.
But he was indeed worthy of being the man she was in love with because he was extraordinary and unlike other lustful men whose eyes were glued to pretty girls whenever they saw one.
Pamela pouted and asked aggrievedly with her pale fingers still outstretched, “Mr. Gray, do you dislike me?”
Pamela looked extremely pitiful.
Lucas looked at her expressionlessly and said indifferently, “I don’t like the Howards.”
Florence caused Lucas to loathe the Howards.
Although the woman in front of him was indeed very beautiful and didn’t have any feud with him, Lucas didn’t want to have any contact with her because she was a Howard.
Hearing Lucas finally answering her and saying he didn’t have a personal grudge against her, Pamela was overjoyed.
It was great that the man she loved didn’t hate her!
With a faint smile, Pamela withdrew her hand and sat down beside Lucas. “Mr. Gray, if you have any bad impression of the Howards because of Florence Howard, it is too unfair to us! Florence Howard is Florence Howard. The Howards are the Howards. Mr. Gray, this isn’t fair to us!”
Lucas was slightly surprised to hear what Pamela said because she actually referred to Florence by her name instead of ‘aunt’.
Quite interesting.
“I won’t hide it from you, Mr. Gray. My aunt and I came to California with the task of forming a good relationship with the Master of California and to never make an enemy of you no matter what.
“However, my aunt took matters into her own hands and presumptuously offended you, Mr. Gray.
“But please believe me that this is definitely not the intentions of the Howards! So, Mr. Gray, it’d be really unjust to us if you blame us for Florence’s misdeeds!”
Pamela wrinkled her nose aggrievedly.
Lucas had to admit that a stunning beauty like Pamela indeed managed to reduce his animosity toward the Howards with her aggrieved appearance and humble attitude.
