Chapter 1037: Teach Him A Lesson
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
What Lucas said immediately shocked everyone present.
What he said at first was understandable, but they were confused by what he meant by his mother-in-law killing her father.
The only person accused of killing her father was Florence, the new helmsman of the Howards. Could it be that Florence was Lucas’s mother-in-law?!
All of a sudden, Eric, Derek, Rayson, Carlos, and the Stones were stunned.
They had no idea that Lucas and Florence had such a relationship!
!!
Even Florence froze for a moment before returning to her senses and realizing that Lucas had actually acknowledged that she was his mother-in-law!
At this moment, a wave of emotions surged in Florence’s heart, making her feel a strong urge to cry on the spot.
She wondered if Lucas’s acknowledgment meant that she and Cheyenne would reconcile soon.
Derek’s eyes bulged, and he shouted angrily, “Since when did I slander Florence Howard? How is it wrong that I said she killed her father to take over his position?”
“Did you see it with your own eyes?” Lucas asked.
“Hmph, this news came from the Howards themselves. Why would they slander her?” Derek insisted.
Lucas sneered. “So, your claim is entirely based on hearsay, and you don’t have any evidence at all. You’re just falsely accusing my mother-in-law! If I say that I heard you killed your mother, what would you do? Or is that the Piers’ upbringing?”
Last time, Derek had also brought a large group of people and deliberately caused trouble at the Howard residence to take advantage of Felix’s death to bully the Howards and force Florence to marry into the Piers.
That time, Derek and his father kept calling Florence a vicious wench who killed her father to take over his position.
Lucas didn’t bother much with the Piers previously and had only detained the twenty-odd experts as punishment before releasing Derek and his father.
But today, Florence took the initiative to rush to the Howard residence to help Maddy and Jordan. So Lucas acknowledged her favor and her identity as his mother-in-law.
Since this was the case, Lucas would never let anyone defame Florence and tarnish her reputation. If Cheyenne really wanted to reconcile with her, he wouldn’t stop her, but he wouldn’t let her be criticized for having a mother accused of killing her father for his position.
Moreover, Derek had deliberately killed someone and tried to frame Jordan. He had even wanted to unite with the Bransons and the Williams to deal with them. He had already offended Lucas several times, so Lucas naturally wouldn’t let him off the hook easily.
“Punk, you’re really sharp-tongued! I can’t be bothered with you, but you’d better behave!” Derek had an ominous premonition and just quickly wanted to leave.
“Teach him a lesson!” Lucas said calmly.
Jordan immediately rushed out and stood in front of Derek, blocking him from leaving.
The next second…
Smack!
Smack!
Two loud slaps immediately resounded throughout the courtyard of the Stone residence!
Everyone stared at the scene in front of them with their mouths wide open in shock, looking at Jordan’s hand in the air and the bright red slap marks on Derek’s face!
Derek, the helmsman of one of the eight top families of DC, was actually slapped twice by Jordan!
In particular, the Stones’ mouths were so wide open that they could fit eggs inside.
They knew that Jordan was Maddy’s fiancé, but they never thought that he would have the courage to slap Derek twice in public!
The Stones were practically about to faint!
“You… you bastard, how dare you hit me?” Derek was stupefied by the loud slaps. When he regained his senses, he was furious and glowered at Jordan like he wanted to kill him.
“So what if I hit you? You deserve it!”
Smack!
Jordan sneered, raised his hand, and slapped Derek on the face again. “You slandered me and framed me. Don’t you deserve to be beaten up?”
“Punk, I won’t let you…”
Smack!
Before Derek could finish speaking, Jordan slapped his face again. “You killed someone and framed me for it. Don’t you deserve to be beaten up?”
“You…”
Smack!
“You tried to use someone else to harm Lucas. Don’t you deserve to be beaten up?”
Smack!
“You’re unrepentant and keep issuing threats. Don’t you deserve to be beaten up?”
Smack!
Smack!
Smack!
…
Jordan slapped Derek’s face relentlessly. Before long, Derek’s cheeks were red and swollen, and he couldn’t even speak. Blood was even dropping from the corners of his mouth.
Everyone watched on, dumbfounded.
As the head of the Piers, Derek was actually being slapped on his face so hard that it was as swollen as a pig’s head.
Even the elite bodyguards Derek had brought with him were stunned.
They didn’t expect that there would be someone so fierce and bold in DC as to slap Derek’s face in public!
At this moment, the people Derek brought finally reacted, and their expressions changed drastically. The few tall and muscular experts and the bodyguards of the Piers all charged toward Jordan.
The twenty or so people rushed toward Jordan together. Among them, there were many who were twice as muscular as Jordan. The scene was extremely shocking!
Many people exclaimed and quickly stepped back, afraid that they might be implicated.
But while Eric was backing up, he subconsciously glanced at Lucas.
Lucas still looked very calm, and he wasn’t the slightest bit worried or nervous.
Isn’t Lucas Gray worried at all that something might happen to Jordan? Or does he have enough confidence in Jordan and believes that he won’t be defeated by the siege of more than twenty people in front of him?
Who exactly is Lucas Gray?
“Ah!”
“Waahhh!”
“Pfft!”
“Ah!”
…
While Eric was absent-minded for a bit, several miserable shrieks and yells resounded.
Eric turned around abruptly, only to see Jordan kicking away the people rushing at him one by one.
These people flew into the air like sandbags and fell heavily to the ground.
Even the five muscular men weren’t spared from the ruthless treatment. They couldn’t fight back at all.
This scene was really astonishing!
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Eric would have found it hard to believe that the lean Jordan could subdue the twenty-odd experts of Derek within just a few seconds!
