Bang!
Lucas pulled the trigger resolutely, but this time, there was no bullet in the slot. Lucas was still standing safe and sound.
âOh, looks like you got lucky this time! But there are six slots and only one bullet in this revolver. In other words, the chance of being shot is one in six. Youâre lucky this time!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBut like I said, this game wonât end until either you or your father-in-law dies. Now itâs your turn to shoot your father-in-law. Letâs hope he can be as lucky as you!
âTo be honest, I wish this game could last a little longer so that I can enjoy myself!
!!
âI want to see how youâll feel if you really shoot your father-in-law dead. I want to see how your wife and sister-in-law will perceive you after you kill their father.
âHahaha, just thinking about it makes me excited! Lucas Gray, donât disappoint me!â
Jace spoke maliciously with a twisted grimace.
Lucas looked at him expressionlessly before turning the cylinder of the revolver. When it stopped, Lucas raised it and shot William.
Bang!
This time, it was an empty slot again.
William, who was hanging on the windowsill, was greatly relieved to hear the sound of an empty shot. He opened his tightly shut eyes.
He had seen everything that had happened just now.
He knew very well that Lucas shot him because he had no choice. Moreover, he actually wished that Lucas would just ignore him and leave to save Charlotte.
But Jace had deliberately set this up to watch Lucas suffer and looked forward to how he would feel after he shot his father-in-law dead with his own hands. He would never let Lucas leave.
After the empty shot, Jace smiled. âSeems like you two didnât die fast! Thatâs exactly what I want! But now that youâve made two empty shots, the chance of there being a bullet has increased. One of you is about to be shot in the head soon! You have to watch out!â Jace said excitedly.
Lucas looked at him and suddenly said, âJace, Iâve just realized how cowardly you are.â
His words immediately caused cracks to appear in Jaceâs relaxed and comfortable expression. âWhat did you say? Try saying it again!â
Lucas said with a faint smile, âAm I not right? Youâve always wanted to deal with me, but you donât even have the guts to fight me head-on. All you dare to do is harm my loved ones and use them against me.
âMoreover, you were raised by the Huttons, one of the top eight families in DC, and you have stronger connections and manpower than a loner like me, who depended entirely on myself. But even then, you donât dare to stand in front of me and fight me open and aboveboard. All you dare to do is resort to lowly tricks!
âArenât you a coward?
âHaha, Jace Hutton, I really look down on you. No wonder you were easily removed from your position as successor!â
Lucas deliberately struck his sore spot.
Jaceâs expression gradually turned gloomy, especially when Lucas mentioned that he had lost his position as successor. He was completely enraged.
âShut up! You bastard, you should know best how I lost my position as successor! Itâs all your fault! If it wasnât because of you, how could I have lost my position?!â Jace hollered with reddened eyes.
Lucas sneered. âI just used some little tricks, and you lost your position as successor. Doesnât that mean that youâre inferior to me?â
Infuriated, Jace roared, âLucas Gray! Donât try to play mind games in front of me. No matter what you say, you have to remember that Iâm the butcher and youâre at my mercy! Yours and your familyâs lives are now in my hands! Youâre the loser! What do you have to say now?â
Lucas said coldly, âDid you get this with your own abilities? If you didnât use such despicable means and threaten me with hostages, do you think youâd be a match for me? You donât dare to fight me head on because you know that be it in terms of martial arts or anything else, youâre no match for me at all!â
Jace was so angered by what Lucas said that he was on the verge of losing his mind. But the moment he was about to let anger get the better of him, he saw William hanging from the windowsill, and the anger within him was immediately replaced by smugness and contempt.
âHmph, you can say whatever you want. Anyway, the fact now is that Iâve already captured your people, and you have no choice but to stand in front of me obediently and do whatever I tell you to do!
âYou can only blame it on yourself for being too stupid!
âYou did so much in DC and made me lose my position as successor. You even helped an illegitimate son take my place. Do you think Iâd still let you off? From that day on, you should have already thought of this outcome!
âYes, I admit my methods are despicable, but it doesnât matter as long as they work! The result now is that Iâm the victor and youâre just a dog!â
Hmph, so what if Lucas Gray won that match? Iâm the final winner!
As long as this eyesore is dead, Iâll go back to DC and deal with Roman. One day, Iâll regain the position of the Huttonsâ successor!
But Lucas Gray must die!
In fact, Jaceâs thoughts did make sense.
As long as he was the final winner, it didnât matter to him whether his methods were despicable tricks or not.
At the same time, Lucas had indeed been a little too careless.
He had previously arranged for people to protect Cheyenne, Charlotte, and the rest. But later, Lucas had sent Stanley and Jordan to DC because Flynn had been facing many difficulties in the Stardust Corporation headquarters. Thus, there were fewer people in Orange County he could trust and dispatch.
Besides, he hadnât expected Jace would be so despicable as to deal with his family. Due to his negligence, Jace had succeeded in capturing Charlotte and William.
Jace mocked, âLucas Gray, if your father-in-law and sister-in-law die today, itâll all be your fault! Youâd better remember this!â
Lucas nodded calmly. âIndeed, this was caused by my negligence. But remember this. You should know clearly that I wonât let you off for doing this!
âJust a few minutes ago, your father begged me to spare your life, but now, it seems it isnât necessary at all!â
