Chapter 646: Young Helmsman

Chapter 646: Young Helmsman

Connor was very respectful toward Lucas. In fact, he was even somewhat in awe of him.

Even though he had now become the actual helmsman of the Hale family, he didn’t dare to be rude to Lucas at all.

During his son’s full moon shower back then, Lucas had practically wiped out the Hales overnight with a single command. Later on, the dozens of Hales were spared also because of Lucas’s power.

It could be said that Lucas had full control over the life and death of the Hales, so Connor was naturally afraid of a terrifying figure like him. In fact, he had even once broken out in cold sweat from being in the same car as Lucas.

But the Hales had now become subordinate to Lucas. In fact, everything the Hales had actually belonged to Lucas, which caused the drastic change in Connor’s attitude. He no longer feared Lucas and instead genuinely submitted to him out of subservience to a superior.

Lucas looked at Connor and smiled lightly. “Yes, Alexis invited me, so I came to take a look.”

Connor raised his head, and only then did he notice the beautiful woman beside Lucas. He smiled and said, “Miss Sawyer, you’re here too.”

Lena laughed and teased, “Now, I have to see you as the helmsman of the Hale family. You didn’t see how much attention you got from all the beautiful women as soon as you entered! You’re the youngest person to become the head of a first-tier family in the last decade or so. I’m also about the same age as you, but now, I’m still just a vulnerable woman!”

She and Connor were both from families among the top four in Orange County, so they had interacted with each other rather often. They were also more familiar with each other than others.

Connor looked at Lucas, standing beside Lena, and said ambiguously, “How is that possible? Miss Sawyer, you and Mr. Gray are so close to each other. You will definitely be a successful person in the future, so who would dare to despise you?”

Lucas immediately realized that Connor had probably misunderstood the relationship between him and Lena. But when he saw Lena blushing with shame and embarrassment and then saw many people nearby secretly paying attention to them, he merely coughed gently without saying anything to explain.

Anyway, he knew that there was nothing between him and Lena, and this was enough. If he explained anything, it would make it seem like he was getting defensive from trying to cover it up.

Since Lucas didn’t explain, all the more Lena wouldn’t take the initiative to explain anything. In fact, she felt a sweet and fuzzy feeling after hearing that Connor had gotten the wrong idea about them.

How wonderful would it be if… Lucas and I were really in that kind of relationship?!

But after fantasizing, Lena acutely sensed something that shocked her.

Connor’s attitude toward Lucas was really too good to be true. In fact, he was extremely respectful toward him.

Even when Connor was still just the esteemed scion of the Hale family, he wouldn’t necessarily need to be so respectful and polite to Lucas, let alone now that he was the helmsman of the family.

Does this mean that Lucas has a higher status than Connor, the helmsman of the Hale family?

The three of them were just having a simple conversation here. But many other people in the hall could barely suppress their surprise.

Initially, when Lucas just entered, he had attracted many disdainful gazes from the other guests because his plain outfit made him stick out like a sore thumb.

Later on, the ravishing beauty Lena, who attracted the attention of most of the men in the room, took the initiative to walk up to Lucas to greet him. After her, Connor, who attracted most of the women in the room, did the same and even seemed to be extremely respectful toward him, leaving many puzzled.

Who exactly was this young man dressed shabbily?

Lucas casually glanced around the hall and saw a few people he knew, such as the two young people of the Wallace family, as well as Gisele and other Taylors. However, most here were rich children from San Francisco and other cities, so he didn’t know them.

The moment Gisele saw Lucas, she subconsciously shrank, for fear that he would come over and create trouble for her.

The last time Lucas had confronted the Taylors and made Preston hand over Karen, he was really powerful and overbearing. Not only had he beaten all the bodyguards of the Taylors to the ground, but he had also killed the powerful expert of the Peerless Martial Association.

This made Gisele no longer dare to seek revenge against Lucas. Instead, she was now like a mouse seeing a cat, absolutely petrified.

But Gisele was overthinking things, as Lucas would never take a nobody like her seriously or be in the mood to find trouble with her. Well, unless she took the initiative to provoke him.

At this moment, a few men and women standing in the middle of the hall and chatting suddenly walked toward the corner where Lucas was.

“Lena, why did you come over here?”

The leader of these people was a wealthy heir of about twenty-seven years old, who was dressed fashionably in an expensive and decent suit. The red segment of hair hanging in front of his head was particularly eye-catching.

He then looked at Lucas and drawled in a light tone, “Hey, who’s this? I don’t think I’ve seen him before. Lena, won’t you introduce him to us?”

Despite asking for an introduction, he had his head raised high and his nose facing Lucas, clearly full of contempt toward him, whom he belittled.

Lena seemed to have a bad impression of this wealthy heir as she glanced at him and said indifferently, “This is my friend, and we’re here to talk. Mr. Walker, do you have an issue with this?”

The wealthy heir with red hair hanging in front of his forehead laughed. “Lena, I’m just asking. Why do you have to be so hostile to me?”

Looking at him, Lucas couldn’t help sighing.

The person who had called out to him and ordered him to give up his parking spot like a subordinate outside the Coles’ manor just now was exactly this man.

But Lucas didn’t know his identity just now. After hearing Lena say his last name, he reckoned that he should be one of the Walkers, who were on par with the Coles and the Kingstons.

Connor also frowned slightly.

He had never had any close ties with Nate Walker and merely knew of his existence. Nate seemed to be hostile to Lucas, or rather, despised Lucas.

The condescending expression he had on his face when he looked at Lucas made Connor’s impression of him worsen, and he didn’t want to pay attention to him at all.

“Hey, Connor Hale, can’t you see that Mr. Walker is standing in front of you and speaking to you? How dare you not greet him. What do you mean by this?!” a square-faced young man following behind Nate shouted in displeasure.
