The current situation made Florence the most uneasy.

She came to the Stone residence this time because she had heard a report that something unfavorable had happened to Jordan and Maddy and that the Bransons were coming to confront them.

Florence knew that Jordan and Lucas were very close to each other. Thus, she had rushed over with her subordinates to protect Jordan and Maddy in order to leave a good impression on Lucas so that she could have the chance to make up with Cheyenne. At the same time, she also wanted to repay Lucas for helping her before.

But Florence didn’t expect things to become so complicated later. Not only did Rayson Williams come, but Derek Piers did as well.

If the Williams, the Piers, and the Bransons really united, the Howards wouldn’t be able to deal with them even if they gave it their all.

Carlos and the Stones turned as pale as a sheet. Even though they were on the Stones’ territory, they weren’t qualified to speak in this situation.

Maddy and Jordan stood quietly next to each other, looking calm and composed.

Both of them knew Lucas’s true identity. Let alone three, even if all eight of the top families joined forces against Lucas, they would be no match for him at all. They would only end up being destroyed!

Without saying a word, Lucas just looked on expressionlessly, as if he was an outsider who had no idea that the helmsmen opposite him were discussing forming an alliance against him.

In fact, it didn’t matter to Lucas whether Rayson agreed to the alliance or not. The only thing that mattered to him was whether he would add the Williams to the list of people he would deal with in the future.

Eric’s eyes darted around. One moment, he looked at Derek and Rayson, and the other, he looked at the expressionless Lucas standing nearby.

Based on the conversation just now, Eric learned that both the Piers and the Williams had suffered great losses at the Howard residence. The Howards had taken away more than 20 experts from the Piers, and Rayson had even been forced to kneel and apologize to someone at the Howard residence!

In comparison, Rayson’s matter was clearly more shocking.

He could have never expected this of Rayson, the esteemed helmsman of the Williams family. What kind of person could force him to kneel and apologize?

Seeing the obvious scruples and fears on Rayson’s face when he faced Lucas, he wondered if Lucas was the person who had forced Rayson.

At this moment, a storm was brewing in Eric’s heart.

He subconsciously looked at Lucas a few times to get some clues from his expression, but Lucas seemed too calm for him to be able to see anything.

But this was what made it even more problematic.

If he was just an ordinary person, how could he still remain so calm at this time?

Lucas’s expressionless face simply showed that he was too confident and completely fearless!

Eric felt apprehensive and curious about Lucas’s identity.

Rayson bit his lip and pondered for a long time without speaking.

Just as Derek was getting anxious while waiting and about to ask him again, Rayson finally raised his head and said slowly, “Derek, I can’t stop you from courting death, but I have a word of advice for you. You’re not qualified to fight with Mr. Gray!”

Derek’s expression immediately stiffed!

He froze for a moment before saying in disbelief, “Rayson, are… are you out of your mind? You’re actually speaking up for Lucas Gray?!”

He found it really hard to believe. It was Lucas’s subordinate Jordan who had forced Rayson to kneel and admit his mistakes to Lucas. So by right, Rayson should hate Lucas and want to kill him immediately!

Now that he proposed an opportunity to form an alliance with him to deal with Lucas, Rayson should have agreed without hesitation.

But Rayson actually now said that he was courting death and that he wasn’t qualified to fight with Lucas.

Was there something wrong with Rayson?

Rayson had already made up his mind to stand on Lucas’s side, so he naturally would no longer be friendly with Derek. He said coldly, “So what if I’m speaking up for Mr. Gray? I’m just stating facts. You’ll only be courting death if you think that you and your family can go against Mr. Gray!”

Then he stepped forward and said loudly, “No matter who wants to deal with Mr. Gray, they’ll become enemies of the Williams!”

Boom!

Rayson’s words were like a thunderstorm striking everyone in the head!

Not only was Rayson refusing to be an enemy of Lucas, but he was even standing on Lucas’s side and didn’t hesitate to have all the Williams stand on Lucas’s side too!

Derek had clearly said that Rayson had suffered a huge loss because of Lucas. Why did things suddenly turn out this way?

The Stones stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded and speechless.

At the same time, a strong feeling of regret filled the hearts of the Stones.

In fact, all of the Stones had already witnessed how strong Jordan was a month ago and knew that Lucas was a powerful big shot who didn’t even take the Smiths seriously.

But under the prestige and threat of the Bransons, they all thought that Lucas wouldn’t be a match for the Bransons. In order to convince the Bransons not to hold them responsible, they had even driven Maddy out of the family and threatened to capture Jordan and deliver him to the Bransons.

But Maddy and Jordan were not only under the protection of Florence, the head of the Howards, but even Rayson, the head of the Williams, was obviously standing on Lucas’s side!

If the Stones hadn’t kicked Maddy out of the family, they would be under the protection of the Howards and the Williams now!

Given the strength of the Stones, they would be able to remain carefree with these two backers!

At this moment, Carlos’s heart was full of dismay, regret, and panic.

In order to please the Williams so that they would help the Stones tide through their ordeal, he had even given up his daughter Maddy and wanted her to marry Rayson’s intellectually challenged and violent son.

But Maddy’s friend Lucas actually managed to get Rayson to take his side and be polite to him in every way.

The drastic difference and regret made Carlos want to slap himself!

Derek glowered at Rayson gloomily with anger written all over his face. “Rayson Williams! You’re too shameless? Not only are you not taking revenge against Lucas Gray for forcing you to kneel down, but you’re even defending him and acting like his lapdog? You’re such an embarrassment to our eight families!”
