Chapter 990: Finding Jace
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this moment, Lucas was enraged!
“Michael Hutton, I agreed to let you save him, but did you keep your promise? My father-in-law and sister-in-law are still in his hands, and their lives are in danger!
“Since Jace dares to do such a ruthless thing to my family, why should I spare his life?
“To tell you the truth, the reason I spared the Huttons in DC previously wasn’t that I didn’t dare to deal with you but because my mother begged me not to take revenge on you before she died!
“I’ve already spared you once, but Jace still wanted to court death himself, so he can only blame himself!
“If you have a problem with it and want to take revenge for your precious son, feel free to come at me! But this time, I won’t show your family any mercy again!” Lucas finished furiously.
The angrier he was, the calmer he looked.
“No, Lucas, you really can’t kill him because of his ident.i.ty…”
Lucas couldn’t be bothered to listen to what Michael had to say and hung up.
At this point, it was impossible for him to let Jace off!
Lucas didn’t hide and walked straight into the abandoned hospital. He followed the auras he detected and went straight up to the fifth floor using the stairs without searching every room by room.
When he reached the door of a room on the fifth floor, an arrogant voice spread from inside. “Hey, it seems you’re really meant to be my dog. You came here so quickly!”
Lucas didn’t respond and walked over.
As soon as he entered, he saw Jace sitting on a chair in the middle of the room. There were six tall and st.u.r.dy bodyguards standing behind Jace.
But the next moment, Lucas’s pupils suddenly constricted at the sight of William tied up and left hanging from the window frame!
William was obviously in a terrible state. After the harsh beatings, his body was now covered with footprints and dust, and blood was trickling down his body.
“William!” Lucas roared, incredibly furious.
Seemingly having heard Lucas’s voice, William, who had been tortured nearly to death, half-opened his swollen eyes with difficulty and saw that Lucas had really arrived.
“Lucas… hurry up and leave! Don’t… don’t bother about me! It’s… dangerous here!” The rag in William’s mouth had already been removed, and he spoke to Lucas with great difficulty.
The moment he saw Lucas, the first thing that came to his mind was not that he was finally saved but that Lucas had walked into a trap because of him. So he desperately wanted Lucas to leave.
There were still four experts armed with guns all pointing at William.
As long as Jace gave an order, William would be shot to death by them, which forced Lucas not to dare to act rashly.
Although Lucas could kill Jace in an instant and take down these gunmen in a very short period of time, with so many gunmen aiming at William, Lucas didn’t dare to put William’s life at risk.
He didn’t want to take the risk.
Lucas also noticed that they were the only ones in the room. Charlotte and Karen were not here.
Before finding out where Charlotte was, Lucas had no choice but to hold back for the time being without acting rashly.
Jace, sitting in the middle of the room, watched the interaction between Lucas and William and burst into laughter. “Haha! It’s really funny. You two seem to have deeper feelings for each other than a real father and son. I wonder what my dad in DC will look like if he sees you this way!”
Lucas didn’t want to listen to Jace’s nonsense. “What do you want?
“Don’t you just want to deal with me? Now that I’m here, it’s time you let go of the irrelevant people!”
Jace sneered and said playfully, “No, no, no, I will never let them off! I deliberately let you find me so that we could play an interesting game!”
“Don’t worry. It’s a very interesting game, and you will definitely find it interesting too!”
Lucas looked at Jace, who was talking to himself like a lunatic.
“Looks like you won’t regret it until you suffer!” Jace laughed smugly, immediately took out his phone, and pressed it a few times.
Soon, a female voice that Lucas was extremely familiar with sounded from the other end. “Mr. Hutton, you finally called. That b.i.t.c.h Charlotte is still safe in my hands. What should I do next?”
As soon as Lucas heard the nauseatingly fawning voice, he knew that the person on the other end was Karen.
But Charlotte was clearly Karen’s daughter, yet Karen called her a b.i.t.c.h and was guarding her closely. It made Lucas feel a strong urge to kill her.
Karen was a complete piece of garbage that wasn’t worthy of being a mother at all!
Jace appreciated Lucas’s anger while saying relaxedly, “You should be familiar with each other. In that case, you should greet each other!”
Then he turned the screen of his phone toward Lucas.
What was displayed on the screen was Karen’s disgusting face.
It turned out that Jace was on a video call with Karen.
Karen was still smiling fawningly at Jace at first, but as soon as she saw Lucas’s face on the screen, it turned into hatred.
“Lucas! You d.a.m.n b.a.s.t.a.r.d! If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have been locked up in that h.e.l.lhole and suffered so much!
“You jinx! You ruined my life! I will never spare you! I’ll make sure your life is worse than death!”
Karen cursed at Lucas in a shrilling voice as soon as she saw him. Her voice was still as ear-piercing as before. She was no different from the shrew from before.
Lucas sneered while trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
If not for the fact that Karen was Charlotte’s biological mother and Cheyenne’s adoptive mother, Lucas would have killed the vicious Karen right from the beginning!
Unfortunately, the mercy he had shown made Karen go from bad to worse. She became so vicious that she wouldn’t even let her biological daughter off.
Lucas faced Karen and questioned her over the video call, “Karen, since you hate me and want to deal with me, just come at me! But Charlotte is your daughter. How can you treat her like that?”
