Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Carlos was shocked. What he feared the most had come true. His greatest fear now was Rayson asking him about the marriage issue.

But no matter what, it was impossible for him to avoid this matter since Maddy had refused to marry. He could only bite the bullet and explain what happened.

Carlos gritted his teeth, plucked up the courage, and said cautiously, Mr. Williams, heres what happened. My unfilial daughter caused a disaster, so I kicked her out of the family some time ago. Shes no longer a member of the Stones So, how about this? We have many other beautiful female descendants in our family. Ill pick one and send her to you

What the h.e.l.l are you saying? Rayson interrupted with a series of expletives. Stone, are you deliberately playing tricks on me? I want your daughter, Maddy Stone. If I just wanted my son to marry a pretty woman, why would I bother coming to your family?

d.a.m.n it! You promised me that you would get your daughter to marry my son and get the marriage license immediately. But now, youre saying that youve already kicked your daughter out of your family. d.a.m.n it, are you deliberately messing with me?

!!

Youre really audacious. Just you wait. Ill bring people to your place and demand an explanation from you!

With that, Rayson hung up without waiting for Carlos to respond.

Carloss legs went limp. Unable to stand anymore, he fell straight to the floor.

With a blank expression, he kept recalling Raysons threat to bring his men to the Stone residence.

Its over for us! The Williams are coming to the Stones to demand an explanation from me. W-what should I do now? What else can I do?

Meanwhile, Jordan had already brought Maddy with him to the entrance of Lucass villa.

On the way here, Jordan had already called Lucas and asked for help. But he didnt elaborate on the details.

Lucas was already waiting at the entrance of the villa. As soon as he saw Jordan, he closed the door and got in the car.

After getting in, he saw that there was something amiss with Maddys expression. Her eyes were red and swollen. She had obviously just cried.

Whats going on? Lucas immediately asked solemnly.

He knew that Maddy had always been extremely strong and would rarely cry like this.

Just as Jordan was about to speak, Maddy sniffled and said, Let me do the talking. Focus on driving.

Then she told Lucas about everything that had happened earlier.

When he heard that Maddy had been kicked out of the Stone family and disowned by Carlos while Geoffrey had left the family in anger, Lucas was completely speechless. In fact, he even felt a little angry.

The reason he had promised the Stones that he would keep them alive and even bring them to greater glory was because of the relations.h.i.+p between Maddy and Jordan.

But Lucas didnt expect that Maddy would be kicked out of the family just twenty days after Carlos took over Geoffreys position as helmsman.

When Lucas found out that Carlos also wanted to force Maddy to marry Raysons intellectually challenged and violent son so that he could get Williams help, he was angered to the point of speechlessness.

He couldnt figure out how Carlos could be so stupid when he had a wise father like Geoffrey and an intelligent and valiant daughter like Maddy!

Carloss actions were hopelessly stupid, and Lucas couldnt even be bothered to scold him.

Your father will definitely regret what he did today! Lucas said coldly.

Maddy was Lucass comrade in arms and the person who mattered the most to Jordan. Ye, Carlos wanted Maddy to marry a violent and intellectually challenged person like Cody. He was simply ruining Maddys life and Jordans happiness!

If it wasnt for the fact that Carlos was Maddys biological father, Lucas would have killed him!

Maddy said bitterly, Actually, before Grandpa left, he said something like that too, but my father disregarded his words. Who knows what hes thinking now.

Seeing Lucass gloomy expression, Jordan suddenly felt worried. Lucas, you youre not going to do anything to Carlos, are you?

Uh, h-he did make a lot of mistakes, but I think hes just too timid and only cares about his family. His incompetence is the reason that he does some irrational things.

Lucas, give Carlos a chance. He might repent later!

Jordan was really worried and afraid that Lucas might kill Carlos out of anger.

Lucas glowered at Jordan and berated, Hmph, of course I know that. Youre naturally going to put in a good word for him since hes your future father-in-law!

Hey, look at you. All you care about is your fiance and your future father-in-law now. Im afraid Ill mean nothing to you in the future!

No, thats impossible, Lucas! No matter what happens, youll forever be my best friend! Jordan explained in panic before noticing the playful smile on Lucass face. He immediately understood what Lucas was doing, so he played along. Lucas, why does it seem like youre jealous right now? Are you actually jealous of Maddy?

Then Jordan deliberately looked at Maddy in the rearview mirror and made a face at her.

Pfft! Maddy laughed and pursed her lips.

Her laughter and the joyful banter between Jordan and Lucas immediately put her in a better mood.

This was also the common goal of Lucas and Jordan.

Of course, Lucas wouldnt harm Carlos. No matter how overboard Carlos was, it was still the Stones family affairs.

Maddy could resist Carlos, get mad at him, and even oppose him, but Lucas couldnt do anything to the Stone family because he respected Maddy.

But now, the Stones not only had to face the pressure from the Bransons, but they had also provoked the Williams, leaving them in a dilemma.

Of course, all of this wasnt a big deal to Lucas.

Moreover, since an incident involving the Williams happened again, Lucas decided not to go to the Bransons first but instead go to the Stones to see how they would handle the issue.

As soon as they reached the door, they got out of the car and entered the Stone residence, only to see Carlos storming over furiously.

The first thing he did after rus.h.i.+ng over was yell at Maddy. You unfilial wench! Youve made me offend the Williams and caused a huge disaster for the family. Trust you to have the cheek to come back!
