Chapter 1096: Finally Caught Up
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
However, even though the Flame Dragon experts were well prepared, they probably didn’t expect Lucas to be able to dodge the sniper bullets while still driving the Land Rover in pursuit of Jace and the white-bearded old man.
So after Lucas drove far away, the sounds of the sniper gunshots ceased. Clearly, there were constraints on the snipers’ positions, and Lucas had already left their range. Even the best snipers wouldn’t be able to do anything.
Without the interference of the sniper rifles, Lucas immediately floored the accelerator of the Land Rover and chased after the Mercedes-Benz at full speed.
The performance of the modified Land Rover was shown at this moment as the distance between the Land Rover and the black Mercedes-Benz continuously narrowed.
“Mr. White, what should we do?! They’re about to catch up!” Jace kept looking backward.
!!
At first, he actually felt smug while watching sniper bullets constantly hitting Lucas’s car. But he didn’t expect that they would only hinder Lucas for a moment. They didn’t manage to do any substantial damage to Lucas or his car.
Seeing Lucas’s car getting closer and closer, Jace was scared out of his wits.
Next to him, the white-bearded old man had a gloomy expression.
He originally thought his backup plan would definitely stop Lucas. And if they were lucky, they might even be able to shoot Lucas dead, but he didn’t expect the outcome to fall short of his expectations.
When Jace saw the grim expression on the white-bearded old man’s face, he panicked even more and said repeatedly, “Mr. White, hurry up and think of a solution! Did you only arrange one backup plan? Where are the top assassins from Flame Dragon you mentioned? There shouldn’t be only those snipers, right?
“You said that I’m the one who will inherit the position of the Whiteleys’ helmsman in the future. How can I let that bastard Lucas Gray catch me?! Quickly think of a way out!”
Jace urged anxiously, afraid that he would fall into Lucas’s hands again.
“Shut up! Or I’ll throw you down immediately!” the white-bearded old man yelled in exasperation while glaring at Jace.
Jace was stunned and could only shut his mouth, though he was still terrified and anxious.
The white-bearded old man looked at the Land Rover getting closer and closer, and his brows furrowed tightly.
The other party’s car was faster than theirs. Even if they drove at full speed, they couldn’t escape from Lucas’s pursuit. Now, he could only block Lucas himself and get the driver to take Jace away.
After thinking of this, the white-bearded old man immediately ordered in a deep voice, “Stop the car!”
Screech!
The driver immediately pulled over.
Seeing Lucas about to catch up and the white-bearded old man telling the driver to stop instead of escape, Jace was terrified!
Pitter-patter!
Pitter-patter!
The clear sounds of water dripping were very distinct in the enclosed space in the car.
The white-bearded old man looked at Jace and felt incredibly disappointed.
Was it really worth it risking his life for this stupid and timid person?
But he didn’t have a choice. Since he had promised that person, he had to keep Jace alive.
“I will stop him while the driver takes the opportunity to bring you away.”
After taking a final glance at Jace, the white-bearded old man opened the car door and stepped out.
At this moment, Lucas’s car had caught up. The car door opened, and Lucas and Jordan stepped out.
When the white-beared old man saw another person beside Lucas, his pupils constricted. It seemed that he had to change his plans of trying to stop Lucas.
Lucas looked at the white-bearded old man and said coldly, “Hand Jace over.”
The white-bearded old man narrowed his eyes at Lucas and said slowly, “Lucas Gray, no matter what, Jace is related to you by blood. Can’t you spare him once? If you really kill him, Michael Hutton will be extremely miserable. Don’t you care about his feelings at all?”
Lucas looked at him and said lightly, “I can spare him, but you must hand him over first and make him answer one of my questions truthfully.”
This was the biggest concession he could make.
What he wanted to know the most right now was the secret about his mother. If Jace told him the truth, it wasn’t impossible for him to spare his life.
The matter of his mother was the most important thing to Lucas.
When Lucas spoke with Michael previously, he had asked about his mother’s secret, but Michael would rather sacrifice Jace than tell him. It was enough to show how important his mother’s secret was.
Since Michael refused to speak, the only person who could tell him about it was Jace.
In order to get the truth, he could even let Jace off for the time being.
A look of hesitation appeared on the white-bearded old man’s face. But after a brief moment of hesitation, he said very firmly, “No, you’re so skilled in martial arts. If I really hand him over to you, how can I be sure that you’ll spare his life? I don’t trust you.”
Jordan said coldly, “Lucas has always been a man of his word. Since he has said so, he will never lie to you. But since you don’t trust him, we don’t have to waste our breaths on you. When Lucas stops you, I can easily drag that bastard Jace out of the car!”
Previously, Lucas had informed Jordan that this white-bearded old man was rather strong.
Jordan thought he was no match for the white-bearded old man, but it would be an easy task for him to stop Jace’s car and pull him out from inside.
Lucas looked at the white-bearded old man again and asked, “Do you really refuse to hand him over?”
The white-bearded old man gritted his teeth. “If you want Jace, you have to go through me first!”
Lucas frowned. Since the opponent was so stubborn, he didn’t have to be polite anymore.
“Come on then. Jordan, do it!”
With Lucas’s command, Jordan immediately rushed toward the Mercedes-Benz!
“Don’t even think about it!” the white-bearded old man shouted and immediately rushed toward Jordan to stop him.
But a figure instantly appeared in front of the white-bearded old man.
Lucas’s icy cold voice followed. “I’m your opponent!”
Immediately afterward, Lucas smashed his fist at the white-bearded old man’s face.
The white-bearded old man didn’t dare to be negligent and raised his palms to block Lucas’s blow.
But Lucas’s action obstructed him from stopping Jordan.
At this moment, the white-bearded old man looked extremely grim.
He knew that Lucas was extremely strong, and he probably wasn’t a match for him. He was only slightly better than him in terms of speed.
But if he took Jace with him and ran, it would be the same as last time. With a burden, his speed would be affected, and Lucas would still catch up.
Besides, Lucas wasn’t alone now. He also brought a helper.
The white-bearded old man found it really difficult this time.
