1155 I Want To Take Them Away
Even Leila looked at Lucas in astonishment.
She knew that he was the chairman of the Stardust Corporation, and through various clues, she had guessed that he was an illegitimate son of the Huttons, one of the eight top families.
But she thought that since he was an illegitimate son, the Huttons didn’t recognize him officially. While he could still leverage the family’s power in front of the other families, he couldn’t do so when facing the two scions of the Waltons, a family of the same status as the Huttons.
After all, the Huttons would never go against a family of comparable strength and status for the sake of an illegitimate son whom they had kicked out of the family years ago.

Moreover, Lucas wasn’t really Leila’s boyfriend in the first place. They had only met twice and exchanged a few sentences. She had merely dragged him here to pose as her boyfriend to try and stop Roger’s incessant hara.s.sment of her.
But now, Lucas had spoken and might have offended Jacky. What if Jacky got the Waltons to retaliate against Lucas?
For a while, Leila’s feelings were extremely complicated. Although she was grateful to Lucas for protecting her, she was also very concerned and worried about him.
Alyssa and Bethany looked at Lucas in surprise. Neither of them had expected him to be willing to stand up for them after their own boyfriends had abandoned them despite having criticized and despised him so much.
Regardless of whether or not Lucas had the ability to deal with Jacky and Nick and whether or not he could take the three of them away safely, the fact that he had the courage to speak out against Jacky was enough to make the two of them feel guilty and change their opinions about him.
Lucas wasn’t the cowardly good-for-nothing that they had previously called him. Rather, he was a real man.
After Jacky heard what Lucas said, his face immediately darkened.
Since Lucas didn’t partic.i.p.ate in beating him, Jacky had mercifully spared him. And when he taught Roger, Hayden, and Samuel a lesson just now, he didn’t take the initiative to find trouble with Lucas but disregarded his presence.
But Jacky didn’t expect Lucas to provoke him instead, even though he had spared him just now!
Jacky narrowed his eyes and said with a threatening look, “Punk, do you know who you’re really talking to? Do you think you can take away people I want to stay just because you say so?”
Everleigh glanced at Lucas and said viciously, “Jacky, since this idiot wants to play the hero, you should show him what the consequences of offending you are!
“I suggest you kill this punk in front of these people! This can be considered a warning to others. When people learn about it, they won’t dare to disobey you in the future!”
Jacky glanced coldly at Everleigh, immediately making her shut up and tremble like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
She knew that what she had just said was taboo because Jacky didn’t like being told what to do.
Nick stood at the side indifferently with his arms folded, as if he was watching a show, waiting for Jacky to deal with this matter himself.
After all, he had brought so many people here to support his brother. Regardless of how Jacky wanted to deal with these people, Nick didn’t care.
Even if Jacky really wanted to kill people, Nick would take care of things well and make sure that there wouldn’t be any trouble.
Jacky glared at Lucas and said arrogantly, “Punk, since this is the first time you’ve offended me, I can spare you. As long as you kneel in front of me and kowtow to me respectfully ten times, I will spare you!”
Lucas sneered, “I’m afraid you don’t have what it takes to make me kneel and kowtow to you!
“As I said, you can do whatever you want with that woman next to you, but I’m taking the other three away!
“On account that this is the first time you’ve offended me, I can forgive you for being rude. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being hostile to you!”
“d.a.m.n it! You must be tired of living!” Jacky instantly flew into a rage. He shouted at the bodyguards behind him, “You guys, go grab that punk! I’ve changed my mind. I’m going to cripple him, tie him here, and make him watch me toy with his woman!”
“Yes, Mr. Jacky!”
After hearing Jacky’s order, the ten or so bodyguards immediately rushed toward Lucas menacingly.
Seeing this, Leila became extremely anxious and hurriedly shouted, “Lucas, run! Don’t worry about us! Just get out!”
Although it would be extremely difficult for Lucas to break out through so many burly men, there would at least still be a chance of survival if he tried.
If Lucas really stayed in this small private room surrounded by so many people, it would only be a matter of time before he was caught.
When the time came, Lucas might really get his limbs broken, and Jacky’s bodyguards might even beat him to death!
If Jacky really wanted to force himself onto her, she would just die so that she could escape the violation and humiliation.
But it was different for Lucas.
She was the one who dragged him here to help her today, so if anything happened to him, she would live with a guilty conscience for the rest of her life!
Looking at the bodyguards charging toward Lucas aggressively, Everleigh smiled maliciously. “Hmph, you deserve it! You only have yourself to blame for going against Jacky!”
The door of the private room was just a few meters away. Just as Leila finished shouting, the fist of the bodyguard at the front was about to hit Lucas’s face.
But Lucas remained still, as if he was petrified in shock and even forgot to dodge.
Jacky and Everleigh had pleasure in their eyes, as if they had already seen Lucas’s bruised and swollen face.
Bang!
But the very next moment, Lucas blocked the punch of the front bodyguard with one hand.
Lucas raised his head and slowly looked at Jacky, Nick, and the bodyguards with a look of pity! “I’ve just made things very clear, but why do you still choose to court death?”
