Chapter 981



Lucas looked at Rayson, who was kneeling in front of him and apologizing. He said indifferently, “You can get lost now!”

Hearing this, Rayson immediately felt as if he had been spared from death. He quickly got up, turned around, and ran toward the door without saying anything.

He frantically ran away, and when he passed the steps at the entrance of the villa, he almost tripped and fell. He was indeed in a terribly disheveled mess.

But Rayson didn’t dare to stop at all, for fear that he would be forced to do other more embarrassing things if he hesitated a moment longer.

Rayson fled without even calling his subordinates along. Instead, they reacted on their own and hurriedly followed Rayson out.

Thus, all the Williams left the Howard residence.

Derek and Conrad had extremely ugly expressions. They quickly said, “Ms. Howard, uh... we’re leaving too!”

Then they hurriedly dashed outside before Florence could even respond.

Florence sulked. She wanted to settle scores with the Piers at first, but when she saw that Lucas didn’t say anything, and she still had plenty of things to handle currently, she reluctantly decided to let the Piers leave since she didn’t have the time to deal with them yet.

After the Piers and the Williams left, Florence looked at the thirty-odd experts who had defected to the Howards and instructed, “Someone, come take them away to get some rest. Have the medical team reconnect their joints and give each of them a thorough checkup. Then let them recuperate for a few days.”

These thirty-odd experts immediately looked at Florence with gratitude and bowed. “Thank you, Ms. Howard!”

Soon, some servants led them away.

The spacious funeral hall was instantly much emptier. Only the Howards and the Huttons were left.

There was some tension in the atmosphere.

Florence glanced at Michael and then at Lucas. She knew that they were father and son, but she also knew that Lucas had been kicked out of the Huttons and DC when he was still a child. Thus, he had always borne a strong grudge against Michael.

Just a few days ago, Lucas had instructed Florence to attack the Huttons.

So at this moment, Florence didn’t know what to say to ease the tension.

Meanwhile, Michael didn’t notice Florence’s expression. Instead, he stared straight at Lucas.

It was the first time he had looked at his son so closely in all these years.

It was different from how Michael had looked at Lucas in the photos and the way he would steal a few glances at him just now. At this moment, Michael was almost staring straight at Lucas without blinking. Observing Lucas’s face, which somewhat resembled his own and his former lover’s, he felt extremely emotional.

But Lucas didn’t even glance at Michael.

From the moment Michael walked into the Howards’ funeral hall, Lucas didn’t even look at Michael or feel anything for him except for the slight emotional fluctuation he felt when he saw him at the beginning. Lucas was acting as if Michael didn’t exist at all.

Lucas’s ignoring him made Michael feel a sharp pain in his heart.

“Mr. Gray, thank you so much for everything today!” Florence suddenly coughed twice and walked to Lucas to thank him sincerely.

Moreover, she no longer called Lucas by his name and instead addressed him respectfully as Mr. Gray.

Although Florence didn’t need to be so respectful to Lucas since he was her son-in-law, Lucas might not want to be her son-in-law since Cheyenne had yet to officially acknowledge her as her mother.

Besides, Lucas had given the Howards so much help in the past two days. He had played an instrumental role in various situations, be it when the chief of the Peerless Martial Association’s US headquarters showed up or when the Piers and the Williams joined forces to compel the Howards just now!

It could be said that if it wasn’t for Lucas, the Howards would probably no longer be one of the top eight families of DC!

Moreover, Florence had managed to become the family head only because of Lucas’s support. Otherwise, she would have probably been killed by Hades yesterday.

Thus, Florence was extremely grateful to Lucas.

Lucas nodded nonchalantly. “You don’t need to thank me. But I’m not from DC after all, and I’ll be heading back to Orange County soon, so I won’t be able to protect the Howards all the time. If you don’t want the Howards to face the same predicament again, you should think of ways to gain some allies for the Howards.”

Florence hurriedly nodded. “Mr. Gray, you’re right. I’ll take your advice to heart!”

Suddenly, Michael said, “The Huttons are willing to become allies with the Howards. What do you say, Ms. Howard?”

Florence was stunned. Michael’s suggestion was exactly what the Howards needed right now!

But Florence didn’t agree immediately but instead looked at Lucas hesitantly.

She didn’t know what Lucas’s attitude toward the Huttons was currently. If he still hated the Huttons and wanted to take revenge on them, Florence would never become allies with the Huttons even if they could obtain massive benefits from it.

When Michael saw Florence’s action, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

He had offered to form an alliance with the Howards because he wanted to get into Lucas’s good books.

But Florence actually had to ask Lucas for his opinion before deciding whether to become allies with him. It was really an ironic feeling.

But he had brought it all upon himself. So no matter how upset he felt, he could only suck it up.

Lucas didn’t take a stand.

He didn’t say anything and simply took Cheyenne’s hand. “Let’s go.”

The fact that he let Cheyenne come to DC to pay her respects to the deceased Felix, the former head of the Howards, was already a great kindness on his part.

Moreover, he had even helped the Howards resolve a huge issue and saved them again.

He couldn’t be bothered about who the Howards became allies with and how they would develop in the future.

As for the Huttons, after he stirred up so much trouble for them and made Roman replace their new successor, he no longer cared about their affairs.

As long as the Huttons stopped provoking him, he could let them off the hook once on for the sake of his mother’s last words on her deathbed.

Regarding anything else about them, he would no longer have any feelings!
