Chapter 1203 - 1203 Situation Reversed
1203 Situation Reversed
“Hah, I didn’t expect to have been so blind that I didn’t recognize who you were.” Peter stared straight at Lucas with a clenched jaw, his eyes full of surging fury.
Lucas looked at him with raised brows. “Given that you abandoned such a good woman as Ashley, it’s obvious that you’re blind.”
“You!” Peter was furious.
But he soon adjusted his emotions and sneered, “Haha, stop being so proud in front of me! At the end of the day, you only have control over Club Aurora and the Parkers. You have no right to be arrogant to me!”
Vanessa glowered at Lucas. “Peter is right! Lucas Gray, we indeed belittled you. We didn’t expect you to be related to Club Aurora and the Parkers, but so what?
“No matter how high your status is, you’re not from one of the eight top families of DC! I am the only daughter of the Williams’ helmsman. You want to be arrogant to us? Dream on!”
When Lucas heard this, his expression didn’t change at all.
But Ray and Kenneth looked at Peter and Vanessa sympathetically.
Back when Lucas was still in California, Damon Parker, the former helmsman of the Parkers, had already discovered Lucas’s extraordinariness and even led the entire Parker family to join him and become his subordinates.
Thus, Ray and Kenneth had long known that Lucas wasn’t simple. And the more they interacted with him, the more they could sense how terrifying he was.
Just last night, Lucas had easily gathered 2,000 strong fighters at the Hampton Restaurant within a short time, completely deterring the Waltons with his abilities.
In front of Lucas, the Waltons were just a small fry that he could easily flatten.
Furthermore, the Waltons were one of the top eight families of DC and had stood strong in DC for years.
But this powerful family was so vulnerable when facing Lucas. Overnight, they had completely vanished from DC and lost all their businesses.
The more terrifying thing was that even the Peerless Martial Association’s headquarters, which backed the Waltons, was scrupulous toward Lucas. They had no confidence in facing Lucas and could only give in.
The Parkers believed that with his terrifying strength, Lucas definitely wasn’t afraid of the Williams.
Ray stepped forward and shouted at Vanessa and Peter. “How dare you?! Do not be disrespectful to Mr. Gray!”
Vanessa immediately flew into a rage. As the heiress of the Williams, who had been haughty and respected by all in DC for years, she had never encountered anyone who dared to speak to her like this!
Vanessa pointed at Ray and yelled angrily, “Presumptuous. Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that? Do you know who I am?”
Ray sneered. “Of course I know who you are, but you must not know who I am. I am the current helmsman of the Parkers, and we have recently acquired all of the Waltons’ businesses!”
As soon as she heard this, Vanessa sulked.
She had thought that he was just a senior executive of the Parkers. She didn’t expect him to be the helmsman!
As the only heiress of the Williams, she was well aware of the power of the major forces in DC.
Even her father, Rayson Williams, didn’t dare to provoke the Waltons easily. If the two families really fought, even if the Waltons lost, the Williams would have to pay a heavy price.
And now, the Waltons, who were powerful enough to rival the Williams, were actually replaced by the Parkers in just one night!
So even though Vannessa wasn’t clear about how strong the Parkers were, she wasn’t a fool, and she naturally knew that the Parkers were more powerful than the Williams!
The man in front of them was actually the helmsman of the Parkers. This made Lucas’s status far higher than they had assumed.
Everyone was in disbelief.
They didn’t expect Lucas to be the big shot behind the Parkers!
In that case, things were really going to propel out of their control!
Vanessa and Peter made eye contact, and they both saw the intense grimness in each other’s eyes.
Both of them found the matter extremely tricky to deal with, so the others were naturally terrified.
Those who had dared to mock Lucas were now nervously squeezing behind Peter and Vanessa, too afraid to say anything.
They didn’t even have the qualifications to speak now!
Moreover, no one wanted to speak at this moment. They only wished they could make themselves as inconspicuous as possible, lest Lucas notices them and holds them responsible for offending Lucas and Ashley.
If Lucas really wanted to take revenge on them, he could easily make sure they couldn’t leave the club in one piece!
After thinking about it, Vanessa suddenly sneered. “Hah, do you Parkers think you’re that impressive? You people probably don’t know that the Waltons are backed by the Peerless Martial Association. Do you think the Peerless Martial Association will let you off after you’ve acquired all the Waltons’ businesses?
“As long as the Peerless Martial Association takes action, no matter how you acquired the Waltons’ businesses, you will have to return them all!”
Lucas said with a smile. “You don’t have to worry about that. The Peerless Martial Association has already come to see us yesterday, but these businesses are still under the Parkers’ control. What do you have to say now?”
What Lucas said stunned Vanessa for a moment, but she didn’t believe him at all. “Hmph, you mean that even the Peerless Martial Association is willing to hand over all the Waltons’ businesses to you? Haha, fancy you lying through your teeth. Do you think I’d believe you?
“But I can’t be bothered to argue with you here. In any case, you don’t have the qualifications to fight the Williams!
“I don’t want to continue talking to you. Anyway, what happened between my husband and Ashley Steele has long passed, and I don’t want to pursue it anymore. So I’ll just be magnanimous and let it go.
“Today’s gathering has been too tiresome, and I don’t want to stay here anymore. Honey, let’s go!”
With that, Vanessa grabbed Peter’s arm and moved to leave.
Lucas stood in front of the door, looked at everyone, and sneered. “Did I say you could leave?”
