Chapter 1081: Provoking the Steeles
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Look over there. The three scions of the Steeles have arrived!”
“The young man walking over is Trevor Steele, the oldest scion of the Steeles!”
“I know him. He’s the most likely to become the Steeles’ next helmsman!”
“Do you know about the strange rule that the Steeles have? Among the three cousins, whoever’s representative achieves a higher ranking in the annual tournament will be able to get more resources from the family! I heard that Trevor Steele has gotten the highest ranking in the past few years!”
“It should be the same this year. His expert should be very powerful. If his man gets the high ranking this time, he will most likely become the next helmsman!”
!!
…
Many spectators recognized Trevor and discussed him.
As the eldest scion of the Steeles, Trevor had graceful and dignified mannerisms.
He glanced at Alexander and said, “Alexander, please introduce your friend to me.”
Only then did Alexander return to his senses and hurriedly introduce Lucas to Trevor. “Trevor, this is Lucas Gray, my new friend.”
He said to Lucas, “This is my eldest cousin, Trevor Steele.”
Alexander looked at Lucas and smiled. “Mr. Gray, it’s fate for us to meet. Since we know each other now, please do me a favor and spare G.o.dfrey. I’ll treat you to a meal later, and everyone can get along and forget this incident. In the future, you can come to me if you encounter any trouble in DC.”
Trevor spoke in a very natural tone. Obviously, he should be getting Lucas’s approval, but he spoke nonchalantly as if it was a matter of course. He ordered, “Take G.o.dfrey away.”
“Yes!” The middle-aged man behind Trevor acknowledged and walked toward G.o.dfrey to take him away.
But before the middle-aged man could reach G.o.dfrey, Lucas beat him to it and stood in front of him.
Lucas glanced at Trevor and chuckled. “Have I agreed to let go of this matter? He just tried to kill me, but you’re speaking as if it’s just a matter of doing you a favor and having a meal?”
Trevor frowned, finding Lucas taking it too far. His tone of voice became cold. “Didn’t you already kill his subordinate? Isn’t that enough?”
Lucas sneered. “G.o.dfrey Steele’s subordinate attacked me, so it’s a matter of course that I killed him. But G.o.dfrey himself wanted to kill me. I can’t just let the matter rest, can I?
“If I was just an ordinary person or if I was weaker than that burly man, wouldn’t I have been killed by G.o.dfrey for nothing?
“When G.o.dfrey wanted to kill me just now, why didn’t you come out to stop him? Yet you want me to do you a favor and let him go now that I’m about to kill him.
“So, the lives of your Steele family are human lives, but ours are not?”
Lucas’s words immediately made Trevor’s brows furrow deeply.
Trevor didn’t expect the young man in front of him to be so difficult to deal with, so much so that he wouldn’t even do him a favor.
Trevor narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, “In that case, Mr. Gray, what do you need me to do for you to spare my cousin’s life?”
Lucas said coldly, “I generally only have one way to deal with people who try to kill me, and that is to kill them.”
Then his hand darted out like lightning and grabbed G.o.dfrey’s neck tightly.
“No! Don’t kill me! Trevor, quickly save me!”
With his fragile neck being pinched by Lucas’s steel-like hand, G.o.dfrey was scared out of his wits.
At this moment, he finally realized that Lucas really dared to kill him right in front of his cousin!
Fiery anger appeared in Trevor’s eyes as he hollered, “Let go of him immediately!”
Lucas smiled contemptuously. “Who are you to order me around? What if I don’t let go?”
With that, he immediately tightened his grip on G.o.dfrey’s neck, causing him to suffocate and his eyes to roll backward.
“Mmph… Mmph… Let go… Sa…”
G.o.dfrey was being strangled so hard that his face turned purple, and he was struggling with all his might. At the same time, he tried to ask Trevor for help, but Lucas was squeezing his throat so tightly that he couldn’t say it no matter how hard he tried.
Trevor clenched his fists with a gloomy look on his face.
“You’re provoking me and the Steeles right now!” Trevor yelled furiously.
Seeing G.o.dfrey almost being strangled to death by Lucas, Alexander was also very anxious and hurriedly said, “Mr. Gray, let my cousin go! Don’t kill him!”
Alexander indeed disliked G.o.dfrey, and the two were enemies, but if Lucas really killed him, the Steeles would never let Lucas off.
Those who had the audacity to kill a direct descendant of the Steeles and provoke the family were all deemed enemies of the Steeles. The Steeles wouldn’t stop until they killed them!
Alexander didn’t want to see this situation no matter what!
He still wanted to be friends with Lucas, so how could he possibly stand by and watch Lucas kill G.o.dfrey and become enemies with the Steeles?
Ashley stood rooted to the floor, overwhelmed with shock. Although she was a little worried, she had already had enough of G.o.dfrey’s bullying, so she was feeling pleased to see G.o.dfrey being choked by Lucas.
Besides, she found Lucas, who wasn’t at all intimidated by the Steeles’ power, extremely domineering and charming!
He was the perfect man in her heart!
There was a huge commotion here, and the surrounding spectators were no longer watching the deadly fight in the ring. Instead, they were looking over here with great excitement.
Compared to the two strangers killing each other in the ring, whether or not a scion of the Steeles would get killed by a young man in public was more appealing to them.
All of a sudden, many people started placing bets as if this was a game.
“Let’s bet! I bet a million dollars that that young man doesn’t dare to kill G.o.dfrey Steele. He’s just putting on a front!”
“I’ll bet 1.5 million! I bet that young man is really going to kill G.o.dfrey Steele!”
“I bet three million! That young man really dares to kill him. He looks like a ruthless man!”
“I bet three million that he doesn’t dare to kill G.o.dfrey Steele!”
…
Many people placed bets excitedly.
Trevor was exuding a murderous aura and staring at Lucas with a gloomy gaze. “Punk, you have to remember that the Steeles are one of the top eight families of DC. If you dare to kill a direct descendant of our family, you’ll be hunted down and killed!”
Lucas smiled lightly without saying anything as he raised G.o.dfrey by his neck and threw him onto the floor. Before anyone could even react, Lucas stepped on G.o.dfrey’s head!
