1204 Calling the Parents
Lucas looked at the crowd and said coldly, “It’s not up to you whether this matter is settled or not! Just now, weren’t you people really overbearing? Didn’t you force me to apologize to you? Why have you changed your mind now?
“You want to let it go, but I don’t! Shouldn’t you apologize for the callous things you said to Ashley?
“If you don’t apologize and obtain Ashley’s forgiveness, none of you can leave!”
As soon as Lucas said this, everyone in the room, including Peter and Vanessa, had a drastic change of expression.
Lucas actually wanted them to apologize to Ashley and seek her forgiveness.
!!
The rest didn’t feel too bad, but Vanessa and Peter immediately looked upset.
“Lucas Gray, don’t go overboard! I’m already kind enough not to be calculative with you. How dare you tell me to apologize to that woman?! No way!” Vanessa refused furiously.
“Don’t forget that I am the heiress of the Williams, one of the eight top families of DC. If you really anger me, I will definitely give you a hard time!”
“Hah, are the Williams a big deal?” Lucas sneered. “Then get Rayson Williams, the helmsman of your family, to come over personally. I want to see how you can give me a hard time!”
Then Lucas sat down on the sofa near the door of the private room.
Kenneth was extremely sharp. After seeing Lucas’s actions, he could tell that he didn’t plan to let them off easily, so he took out his phone and sent a message.
Soon, a group of tall and burly security guards charged straight into the private room and blocked the door. Without the Parkers’ permission, none of them would be allowed to leave.
When Peter and Vanessa saw this, their faces darkened.
The rest of Ashley’s former classmates were all horrified as they stared at the burly security guards blocking the door with fear on their faces.
Peter stared at Lucas with a sharp murderous intent in his eyes.
He originally thought that running into Ashley at the bar after returning to DC was a Godsent opportunity for him to take revenge. So he had instigated his former classmates to invite her to the reunion and then mocked and humiliated her as he pleased. He had even revealed the truth to her just so he could see her in misery.
But Peter didn’t expect Lucas to thwart his plans soon after he started taking revenge. It made him furious.
Besides, Lucas’s indifferent and arrogant attitude was proof of his disregard toward Peter, Vanessa’s husband and the future leader of the Williams. Furthermore, he kept defending Ashley and speaking up for her. Now, he even wanted them to apologize to her. It made Peter’s hatred toward Lucas intensify.
Vanessa’s not-so-pretty face had already become completely twisted.
No one in DC had ever dared to stop her or threaten her.
“Lucas Gray, don’t regret it! Once my father comes, you’ll be dead meat!” Vanessa stared at Lucas menacingly.
Lucas snorted coldly. “Don’t be too quick to jump to conclusions. Who knows who will regret it when the time comes!”
Rayson Williams was no stranger to Lucas. They had already crossed paths several times.
Besides, to Lucas, Rayson didn’t have any prestige at all.
After all, Rayson had knelt in front of Lucas three times.
Even if Vanessa got her father to come here, Lucas believed that Rayson definitely wouldn’t speak up for her like she thought.
“You… Just wait!” Vanessa shouted angrily and took out her phone to call her father.
Lucas didn’t bother with her. He glanced at the others in the private room, especially Silas, Carrie, and Zoey, who had clamored endlessly earlier.
“The three of you kept saying you and your families wouldn’t let me off, right? In that case, you should call your elders and get them to come over immediately! I’ll give you half an hour. If your elders aren’t here within half an hour, your families will all be expelled from DC! Do you hear me?
“Don’t think I’m just scaring you. If you don’t believe me, you can try!”
As soon as they heard this, Silas, Carrie, and Zoey were on the verge of crying.
They were full of regret. If they had known that Lucas was a powerful big shot who supported the Parkers and dared to challenge the Williams, they would have never dared to mock him and Ashley just to please Peter and Vanessa!
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world!
No matter how unwilling they were, no matter how scared they were, they had no choice but to take out their phones to call their elders and ask them to rush over to the top floor of Club Aurora within half an hour.
After all, Lucas was powerful enough to go against the Williams, and even the helmsman of the Parkers, who had taken over all of the Waltons’ businesses, behaved so respectfully toward him. Meanwhile, slightly affluent families like theirs weren’t even worthy of carrying the Waltons’ shoes. If Lucas really wanted to expel them from DC, he could do so easily with one sentence!
Thus, no one dared to pretend to obey Lucas’s order, thinking that he was just joking and scaring them.
“Dad, where are you now? I… I’m being held captive in Club Aurora by an audacious thug. He wants you to come over personally, or else he’ll hurt me!” Vanessa complained to Rayson the moment the call connected.
“What did you say? Someone dares to hold my daughter captive? Which bastard has the audacity? He must be tired of living!” Rayson immediately flew into a rage, then quickly comforted his daughter, “Vanessa, don’t worry. I’ll bring the most powerful experts we have to rescue you! I want to see which daring bastard dares to stop my precious daughter!”
“Okay, Dad, you have to come quickly. I’ll be waiting for you here!”
Vanessa smiled. After hanging up, she looked at Lucas conceitedly. “Hmph, I told you that you’re courting death! My father will soon bring the family’s most powerful experts over. When the time comes, I’ll see how you die!
“To make things clear beforehand, you’ve already angered me, so I won’t let you off no matter how you beg later!”
