Chapter 1366: 1362 Bad News

1362 Bad News

For some reason, Rayson suddenly had an ominous premonition, but he quickly suppressed this feeling.

Surely nothing would happen to Jensen. It had to be because this matter involved Lucas that he was suspicious and uneasy.

This must be it!

Rayson found a suitable reason for himself and tried his best to convince himself that he believed it without a doubt.

Rayson couldn’t be blamed for this. It was mainly because his encounters with Lucas before had all ended very tragically, and they had left a deep psychological trauma in Rayson’s heart. Thus, when he heard Lucas’s name and heard anything related to him, his heart instinctively raced, and he wanted to find a place to escape.

Especially now, they had joined forces and stood completely against Lucas. They had even robbed the families on good terms with him. Lucas must have received the news by now, and they were already his enemies.

The feeling of being enemies with Lucas was really too exciting. It made Rayson both excited and afraid. This feeling was really indescribable.

Derek had also suffered greatly at Lucas’s hands, so he also had the same feelings toward Lucas. He hated and feared him.

Only Greg, the helmsman of the Steeles, hadn’t seen how powerful Lucas was, so he didn’t think much of Lucas and thought that he just relied on the forces behind him.

Now, three of the eight top families in DC had joined forces. Furthermore, they had the support of Jensen and the Hamiltons. Greg wasn’t afraid of Lucas at all. He only wished that Lucas, who had dared to kill his grandson, would immediately fall into his hands so that he could make him die a horrible death!

The three of them got someone to serve hot tea again while they sat in their seats and waited patiently for Jensen to arrive.

But at this moment, a middle-aged man rushed in in a panic. When he saw Rayson, he shouted at him, “Mr. Williams, bad news! Just now, Pete Howard suddenly led a group of people to attack the people we left in the Howards’ manor and took it back!”

“What?!” Rayson immediately stood up from his seat, extremely shocked. “Say that again. What happened at the Howards’?”

The Williams’ butler’s face was sweat profusely as he mustered his courage and repeated, “Mr. Williams, the Howards… They have already taken back their manor…”

After Rayson confirmed that the news he heard was indeed correct, his face was full of disbelief. “How is that possible?! We’ve… we’ve clearly already taken down the Howards! How could the Howards still have people to counterattack and snatch back the manor?”

Florence, the head of the Howards, was still lying in the hospital for emergency treatment, and it was unknown if she could survive. The Howards should be leaderless, and no one should have stepped up to take charge. How could they possibly organize enough people to fight with the Williams at this time?

After hearing the bad news from the Williams’ butler, Derek and Greg were shocked, but they also felt a touch of joy in their hearts.

Although they had formed an alliance with the Williams, they were still three different families after all. Their relationship with each other was not very good, so naturally, they didn’t want other families to have great opportunities.

Now that the Williams had lost the Howards’ manor that they had snatched, it meant that the Williams were useless and deserved to miss such a great opportunity.

Derek had a gloating expression on his face. Afraid that Rayson would see it, he quickly lowered his head, trying to hide it.

At this moment, another figure rushed in and reported loudly, “Mr. Piers, bad news! Oscar Smith led a large group of people to attack the people we left at the Smiths’ manor. They’re about to take over the manor!”

“What did you say?!” Derek’s undisguised gloating expression instantly froze on his face. He was extremely shocked!

How… how was this possible?

Oscar Smith… was just an ignorant and incompetent playboy! Before the Smiths’ manor was captured, Oscar had already fled in a hurry like a stray dog. How could he have the guts to come and take back the Smiths’ manor?

Derek was starting to doubt his life. Was the Oscar Smith whom he had known for so many years a fake?

“Mr. Steele! Bad news! Roman Everett of the Hutton family led a large group of people to counterattack and take back the Huttons’ manor. Our people have already been captured. Furthermore, he got someone to pass a message to you. He said that he would definitely settle today’s score!”

The person who ran over to report this time was the Steeles’ butler.

Greg’s expression instantly darkened.

Butlers from all three families came to report bad news. Moreover, the bad news was almost the same. The territories they had seized had been snatched back.

When they first heard the Williams’ butler report the bad news, Derek and Greg were still inwardly laughing at the Williams’ incompetence. The things they had obtained could even be snatched back. But now, the three families all encountered the same situation. This was definitely not a coincidence!

Moreover, such a fast operation was launched against the three families at the same time. When they received the news, the territories they had obtained had already been snatched back. This was enough to prove that the actions of the Howards, the Huttons, and the Smiths were definitely planned by someone behind the scenes. Furthermore, they had a tight deployment!

Rayson, Derek, and Greg looked at each other and saw the seriousness of the matter from each other’s eyes.

Derek growled with a gloomy expression, “We have to take action now! It wasn’t easy for us to achieve such results today, causing heavy losses to the Howards, Huttons, and Smiths. If we don’t take this opportunity to destroy these three families completely, it will be even more difficult when we want to attack them and snatch their resources in the future!

“We must hold an emergency meeting now and gather all the important members of our families to discuss our next move!”

Rayson immediately frowned and denied it. “No! Derek, don’t forget that we’re waiting for Mr. Jensen to come. If we leave now and ruin his mood, he will definitely be unhappy!”

Greg’s brows were tightly knitted together, and the wrinkles between his brows could kill a fly.

He thought for a moment and said, “You’re right, Rayson. Mr. Jensen proposed today’s celebration party. He’s giving us honor. If we leave now, he will definitely be angry when he comes and doesn’t see us!

“It wasn’t easy for us to become acquainted with a noble figure like Mr. Jensen. Are you willing to give up such an opportunity?

“Between Mr. Jensen’s friendship and appreciation or taking back the territories of those families, which is more important?”

Hearing this, Derek had a look of struggle on his face.
