Hearing what Michael said, Lucas said decisively, “I will never let him off. Jace must die!”

It wasn’t only because Jace regarded Lucas as his enemy and wanted to kill him, but also because he wanted to harm the people Lucas cared about to anger him. Besides, Jace’s mother had been the driving force behind Lucas and his mother getting kicked out of the Hutton family back then.

With such grudges, Lucas would never let Jace off!

Michael saw the determined killing intent in Lucas’s eyes, but there was nothing he could do about it.

The only thing he could do was not to let Lucas and Jace meet. Otherwise, one of his two sons would surely die!

!!

Regardless of which son died, it would be a disaster for Michael, and he didn’t know if he would be able to bear it.

Michael closed his eyes in misery, knowing that Lucas had already made up his mind. He stopped persuading him and said sadly, “In fact, I have always hoped that you two could bury the hatchet and that we could all get along in peace, but it seems that’s impossible. I also hope you can bring your wife and daughter over to the Huttons when there’s an opportunity in the future...”

He didn’t finish speaking but instead pursed his lips and turned around to walk toward the Lincoln car.

Seeing Michael become much more depressed, Lucas felt a tinge of complicated emotions, but they soon vanished.

“Finally, I want to ask you what secret is there about my mother?” Lucas suddenly asked just as Michael was about to get into the car.

When Jace was almost killed by Lucas, he had blurted this out during his crisis. Since then, this question had been lingering in Lucas’s heart.

Although Lucas had lived with his mother for many years, he had always felt that there was something secretive and mysterious about her, as if she was shrouded in thick fog.

For example, his mother had never mentioned anything about her family or friends. Even Lucas didn’t know her background.

Therefore, even though Lucas didn’t know if what Jace said was the truth or if he just made it up in order to survive, Lucas had to get to the bottom of it.

He just wanted to know more about his mother.

If Jace really knew something about his mother, his only sources would be either his mother or Michael.

No matter what, Michael used to be his mother’s husband, so he should know more about her.

Michael’s body abruptly stiffened when he heard Lucas’s question, and even his footsteps became erratic.

“Who told you there’s a secret about your mother?” Michael turned around several seconds later and asked, pretending to be confused.

Even though Michael was controlling his expression almost perfectly, Lucas could see through him at a glance. He even noticed the trace of panic on his face.

Lucas narrowed his eyes and said tersely, “Jace said it himself.”

Michael clenched his fist tightly, seemingly trying to suppress some emotion in his heart. After a long time, he finally said firmly, “He’s just spouting nonsense. There are no secrets about your mother!”

Then Michael stopped talking and quickly went back to his car.

Although Michael refused to say it, Lucas could tell from his micro-expressions that there was indeed a huge secret about his mother that Michael clearly knew.

Seeing that Michael had already instructed the chauffeur to drive, Lucas gritted his teeth and suddenly went forward to stop him. “If you’re willing to tell me this secret about my mother, I can agree to your request to let Jace off!”

This was the greatest compromise Lucas could make.

If Michael really knew something about his mother, he would spare Jace’s life. It would be considered a kind of deal.

Michael was clearly struggling. The deal Lucas proposed appealed greatly to him.

But Michael’s struggle and hesitation made Lucas understand that his mother’s secret was extremely important, so much so that even Jace’s life couldn’t make Michael agree to reveal it immediately.

It made Lucas even more concerned about his mother’s secret.

But to Lucas’s disappointment, Michael shook his head after hesitating for a long time. “Unfortunately, there are really no secrets about your mother!”

Then he instructed the chauffeur to leave immediately.

Lucas didn’t stop him this time but instead stood still and watched the black Lincoln gradually vanish into the night.

He had offered to spare Jace’s life, yet Michael wouldn’t even reveal it. This meant that perhaps the secret about his mother was even more important than Jace’s life to Michael!

“One day, I will definitely figure out this secret myself!” Lucas murmured softly.

...

“Honey, are you... alright?”

Just as Lucas reached the door of the house, Cheyenne’s voice immediately sounded. She was clearly ill at ease and had been waiting for Lucas at the entrance of the villa.

Lucas had already sorted out his emotions and smiled gently. “It’s okay. We just met, so we spoke for a bit.”

Then Lucas walked forward, took Cheyenne’s hand, and led her into the house together.

Cheyenne had a lot to say at first. But seeing that Lucas looked a little exhausted, she was sensible enough not to say anything and just stayed quietly by Lucas’s side, giving him her silent support.

...

Early the next morning, Cheyenne got up and proceeded to go out to meet some clients in DC to discuss cooperation.

Her main purpose in coming to DC this time was to expand the Brilliance Corporation, so she was extremely busy.

Lucas usually wouldn’t interfere with Cheyenne’s work, so he could only let her go ahead.

Meanwhile, Lucas had already arrived at the Stardust Corporation’s headquarters in DC.

“Welcome, Lucas!” Flynn respectfully welcomed Lucas to the general manager’s office on the top floor, brewed him a cup of tea, and served it to him.

Lucas’s chairman’s office was still under renovation because he wanted to remove all traces of Jace and turn the decor into his style. It would probably take another two weeks or so to renovate it.

Lucas took a sip of tea and asked, “Since the people from Huttons have been taken care of, there isn’t any trouble left in the Stardust Corporation anymore, right?”

When Lucas came to DC previously, Jace had still been in charge of the Stardust Corporation’s headquarters, which had made things extremely difficult for Flynn, who had parachuted into the company as the general manager. It was so terrible that even a security guard had the audacity to disobey him.

It was only after Lucas took drastic action and directly dealt with the senior and mid-level management staff related to the Huttons and wiped them out of the Stardust Corporation did the corporation get a new lease on life.

Hearing Lucas’s question, Flynn hurriedly said, “Thanks to your formidable method, there’s no longer any major trouble in the Stardust Corporation, but we’re facing some issues with business competition. However, I can deal with it.”

“Business competition?” Lucas said with a look of interest. “What business competition? Tell me about it.”
