1165 Two Thousand People
After hearing Lucas’s order, Clinton laughed even louder. “Hahahaha! Fifteen minutes? Two thousand people? Punk, are you for real?
“Even if you’re the helmsman of one of the eight top families, there’s no way you can call two thousand people over within such a short time!
“Hah, punk, do you think we’re easy to fool, so you deliberately said such an exaggerated number in order to scare us?
“Alright, I’ll wait for you for fifteen minutes. I’ll see how many people you can call over!”
Lucas looked at Clinton and smiled. “Go ahead and wait then.”
!!
Seeing how confident and fearless Lucas was, Clinton couldn’t help but suddenly feel a little fl.u.s.tered. He wondered if Lucas really had the ability to call 2,000 people over.
But he soon thought of the fact that even the Waltons couldn’t gather 2,000 people within such a short time, so it was absolutely impossible for Lucas!
Although the Waltons weren’t the strongest among the eight top families of DC, he didn’t believe that Lucas would be able to do anything to them.
Time pa.s.sed, and 15 minutes was about to be up.
Clinton deliberately looked at his watch and sneered. “Time’s up. Where are your people? Why aren’t any of them anywhere in sight?”
But as soon as he finished speaking, continuous noises came from outside the restaurant.
Through the unshattered gla.s.s windows, they could see several large green trucks stopping in front of the restaurant one after another, followed by a long convoy driving over quickly.
It was an extremely long convoy that looked endless!
The sound of vigorous footsteps came from the green trucks, and at least 40 to 50 people jumped off each truck and soon formed a huge crowd in front of the restaurant.
Immediately afterward, these people poured into the lobby on the first floor of the restaurant through the broken gla.s.s windows. Soon, the s.p.a.cious hall was filled with people. The trucks and people behind were still continuously rus.h.i.+ng over, but they couldn’t come in and could only stand outside the restaurant, surrounding it.
Under everyone’s shocked eyes, a young man about the same age as Lucas walked over to him and smiled. “Lucas, I’m not late, am I?”
Lucas grinned. “You’re just in time.”
After hearing their conversation, Clinton and his sons were even more shocked.
With so many trucks and so many people, there had to be 2,000 people or more.
Lucas had actually managed to gather so many people after just a phone call!
Moreover, they weren’t just any random people. Each of them looked strong and well-trained. At first glance, they obviously weren’t ordinary people.
Clinton felt a chill seep into his heart.
Lucas looked at him and smiled. “How’s it? Can these two thousand people satisfy you?”
Satisfy?
What satisfaction!
Clinton felt that he was about to vomit blood!
He had never thought that Lucas could really gather more than 2,000 people within such a short time. Moreover, their power and aura were not to be belittled. Gathered in the lobby, they squeezed the hundred-plus people that the Waltons had brought in the middle, making them unable to move at all.
If Lucas gave the order to kill them, the hundred-plus subordinates of the Waltons would be of no use whatsoever. They would only end up dying!
Based on the fact that Lucas had dared to break his son’s limbs and remained fearless in the face of him and his subordinates, Clinton could tell that Lucas was definitely not a saint and that he could really kill them all!
Clinton was greatly alarmed and terrified, but he still tried his best to remain calm and ask, “Who… who exactly are you?”
But he no longer carried a high and mighty aura like he did before.
Lucas glanced at him. “You don’t even know who I am, yet you dared to bring so many people to confront me and even want to kill me. I have to say that I really admire your courage.”
What Lucas said made Clinton’s heart sink even more. Did we really offend someone we can’t afford to?
Nick, lying on the stretcher, was deathly pale.
Seeing so many people gathered, Nick felt an incredibly unbearable sense of oppression that was almost suffocating.
He originally thought that the Waltons were already extremely aggressive and powerful. And since his father had brought so many people here to avenge him, it shouldn’t take much effort to capture Lucas and Kenneth.
But Nick never thought that Lucas could really gather 2,000 well-trained men within such a short time.
If Nick still couldn’t understand that Lucas wasn’t an ordinary person but someone stronger than the Waltons, he would really be an idiot.
Meanwhile, looking at this scene, Jacky was already s.h.i.+vering in fright.
As a scion of the Waltons, it was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Two thousand people could easily trample him to death!
Clinton wasn’t a simple person after all. After seeing this scene, he quickly weighed the pros and cons in his head and reached a decision.
“Mr. Gray, is it? Ahem, everything today is just a misunderstanding, and we came here rashly before getting to the bottom of things.
“I hope that you won’t hold it against us. After today, I will definitely take my unfilial sons in hand and then come to apologize to you another day!”
Clinton was indeed a figure. Upon realizing that things were awry, he no longer put on a strong front and instead compromised and made himself sound as amicable as possible.
Unfortunately, Lucas had no intention of letting him off easy.
“That won’t do.” Lucas shook his head with a sigh. “Previously, I offered to spare you and let you leave safely as long as you paid one hundred million dollars in compensation, but you didn’t agree.
“Now that I’ve already called so many of my people over, how can I possibly let you off just like that?”
