Chapter 1047: Jaces Whereabouts

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In fact, Lucas had planned to go to the Huttons this afternoon to ask Michael about two matters, but he was held up by the Stones issues and couldnt go.

He didnt expect Michael to show up and give Cheyenne a lift home.

Although Lucas had a lot of questions for Michael, Cheyenne was right next to him, and he didnt want her to see him confronting Michael.

Therefore, he would rather ask Michael another day.

Lu-Lucas, do you really not want to see me that much?! Michael stared at Lucass back and suddenly shouted, his voice trembling a little.

!!

Lucas immediately stopped.

Cheyenne looked at Lucas nervously, afraid that he would misunderstand that she had forgiven Michael for everything he had done to Lucas and his mother after seeing her return in Michaels car.

But Lucas didnt think that at all. He squeezed Cheyennes hand and said gently, Honey, wait for me at home. I need a word with him.

Cheyenne let out a sigh of relief and looked at Lucas and Michael worriedly. Eventually, she said, Alright, Ill wait for you at home. Come home early.

Okay. Lucas nodded.

After Cheyenne left, he finally turned around and walked toward Michael.

Seeing Lucas walking over, Michael couldnt help showing excitement on his face. Lucas, you

Where is Jace Hutton? Lucas interrupted coldly.

The expression on Michaels face instantly stiffened.

He originally thought that Lucas wanted to talk to him to ease the relations.h.i.+p between them, which had been strained for over two decades. But he didnt expect him to ask about Jace right away.

Just over two weeks ago, Jace had privately led a group of people to Orange County to abduct Lucass father-in-law, William, and sister-in-law, Charlotte. He had almost also killed Cheyenne, which made Lucas furious.

Lucas had wanted to kill Jace directly, but the latter had been suddenly rescued by an elderly expert who popped up out of nowhere.

To save his own life, Jace had revealed that he knew a major secret about Lucass mother. So Lucas had to find Jace and learn about his mothers secret.

Michael remained silent for a while before saying, I dont know where he is now.

Lucas sneered. Youre his father. How can you not know where he is?

From Michaels tone when he begged him not to kill Jace previously, Lucas knew how much he valued Jace as his son. He definitely knew where Jace was.

Even if Michael didnt know Jaces current location, he must know who he was with.

I really dont know where he is now. I only know that he might be with the Whitleys!

The Whitley family was Jaces mothers maiden family.

The royal family had nine branches. With the Whitleys gradual decline over the years, they were now just a not-so-powerful branch of the royal family.

But even so, the Whitleys were still considered a branch of the royals and had a status far superior to megarich families like the eight giants of DC.

Lucas said coldly, Do you think I wont dare to look for him just because hes with the Whitleys? Seems like you dont know me well enough!

Although the royal family had an aloof status, Lucas was the invincible G.o.d of War who had once led the entire southern border as the leader of the Falcon Regiment, with millions of soldiers under his command.

Even though he had retired from the position of the head of the Falcon Regiment, he had done it on his own accord, and no one could affect his status in the Falcon Regiment.

Even compared to the helmsmen of the royal family branches, Lucass status was not inferior to theirs in the slightest. In fact, if he went to the Whitley residence, the Whitleys helmsman would have to come out to receive him personally!

Michael only knew that Lucas had once served as the head of the Falcon Regiment on the southern border but had since stepped down. But he had no idea that Lucas still had an extremely powerful status that was completely on par with the royals helmsmen.

Thus, Michael frowned and said disapprovingly, Lucas, I know you had a high status in the military, but the Whitleys are a member of the royal family, and their status is much higher than even that of the eight top families of DC. It will be too dangerous for you to go to them and ask about Jace. Its impossible for you to succeed.

Lucas said with a look of determination, No matter what, I must find Jace!

Jace had abducted William and Charlotte and almost killed Cheyenne. Since he dared to make a move against his loved ones, Lucas would never spare him!

Moreover, Jace had mentioned he knew a secret about Lucass mother. So Lucas had to capture Jace and find out what this secret was.

With a look of misery on his face, Michael said, Lucas, I know Jace has made lots of mistakes, and I can understand why you hate him and want to kill him.

But no matter what, hes still your half-brother. So I hope you can spare his life for the sake of your blood ties!

If you must kill him, please take my life in exchange for his, okay? You can take my life whenever you want. I just hope that youll spare him!

A look of pleading and sorrow appeared on his face.

But Lucas didnt waver at all and instead sneered contemptuously. Michael Hutton, do you know how ridiculous you sound? If I really wanted to kill you, do you think you would still be able to stand here in one piece?

I might as well tell you the truth. The reason that youre still alive now is all thanks to my mother! If she hadnt told me not to seek revenge on the Huttons while on her deathbed, do you think the Huttons would still be able to exist?

Hearing this, Michael suddenly looked as if he had been struck by lightning. He turned pale and muttered, She so she said that before she died It turns out she still didnt hold it against me

Michael naturally believed what Lucas said because Lucas was definitely powerful enough to annihilate the Huttons if he wanted to take revenge against them. If Lucas had done so, Michael and his family should have long ceased to exist!

Michael originally thought that because he had no choice but to drive Lucas and his mother and son out of the Hutton family and DC, they would hate him. But he didnt expect Emma to make this request to Lucas before she pa.s.sed away.

At this moment, Michaels heart was full of pain, agony, and guilt.

If he hadnt expelled Lucas and his mother from the family, Lucas would have been the perfect successor, and the Huttons might have been able to surpa.s.s the seven other giants of DC under Lucass leaders.h.i.+p.

But there were too many things that couldnt be undone at this point.

Michael closed his eyes in pain and asked after a while, Lucas, what exactly must I do for you to spare Jaces life?
