Chapter 799 Must I Tell You?

Of course, Lucas didnt want to really kill Florence. After all, she was indeed Cheyennes mother no matter what. Even though Cheyenne wasnt aware ofit yet, Lucas wouldnt do such a thing.

But teaching Florence a lesson and getting her kicked out of the Howards to turn her from an heiress high up in the air to a n.o.body was just Lucass threat.

In Lucass opinion, people like Florence simply lacked experience with hards.h.i.+p. Everything went well for her, and her family was rich and powerful, so she ended up with this temperament today.

If Florence wanted to reunite with Cheyenne and get along well with her, Lucas naturally wouldnt oppose. But if Florences agenda for approaching Cheyenne was only to make use of her to achieve her ambitions, Lucas definitely wouldnt let her off.

How How dare you threaten me? Do you know that the Howards definitely wont let you off if you dare to lay a finger on me?! Florence shouted in anger and shock.

Andy, Florences bodyguard in sungla.s.ses, immediately stood beside Florence, looking as if he was facing an enemy. He clenched his fists, but his face was pale and covered in sweat.

Andy knew full well that he was no match for Lucas. If Lucas really wanted to keep them both in California, he wouldnt even have the ability to struggle and resist!

Lucas sneered at the two of them. As youve said, the Howards are in DC, but were in California now, so I call the shots! If youre still in California before the sun rises tomorrow morning, dont blame me for being rude to you!

Then Lucas took out his phone and made a call. Listen up. If Florence Howard is still in California before seven oclock tomorrow morning, make her disappear from California forever!

After ending the call, he glanced at Florence, who had anger, shock, and horror written all over her face, and said calmly, Thats all I have to say. If you want to know whether I dare to do it or not, you can try. With that, Lucas stopped paying attention to Florence and left straight away. He That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How dare he threaten me! I This is going to be the death of me! How infuriating!

Florence didnt return to her senses until after she saw Lucas walking away. She was so furious that she was trembling. She even broke two of her nails, which she had just gotten done at a manicure session.

She was simply exasperated. How dare Lucas Gray speak to me like that? He blatantly threatened me!

Outrageous!

Madam, I think we should leave now! Andy suddenly persuaded.

No, Im not leaving! If I leave like this, doesnt it mean that Im afraid of him? Im not leaving! Im a Howard, and hes my son-in-law. I want to see what he can do to me! Florence refused angrily.

Andy looked at Florence speechlessly. But after thinking about it, he merely said, Madam, why do you think he doesnt dare to make a move? Previously, Lucas Gray harmed Vince Smith, making him return to DC in shame. And he also killed Julian York of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociations headquarters. Hes not scared of the Howards at all! As for your status as his mother-in-law Given his actions just now, do you think he really cares about that? To put it bluntly, you havent reunited with Miss Cheyenne Carter yet, so even if Lucas Gray does anything to you, she wont know. He doesnt have to worry about it at all!

Hearing this, Florence immediately froze in place, as if she had been drenched by cold water.

Indeed, based on Lucass words and actions, he didnt care about the Howards power, nor did he care about her being his mother-in-law. In that case, why wouldnt he dare to harm her?

If he wanted to kill her, there was no way she could resist.

Besides, just as Lucas said, even if she died in California, her family wouldnt be able to get any evidence, and she would die for nothing!

The scene of Lucas killing Julian easily back in the ring of the San Francisco International Expo Center suddenly surfaced in Florences mind, making her so scared that she s.h.i.+vered.

Lucas was indeed a terrifying young man

Otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to take control of Oregon and California and hold so much power at such a young age. But if I leave California like this, my mission will be a complete failure! Those people in the family will definitely mock me, and Ill never get what I want! Florence was really indignant, and she didnt want to leave just like this.

Madam, if you leave right now, you wont be able to complete your mission, but theres still a long road ahead. You might be able to come up with a better plan in the future. But if you refuse to leave, you might really die, and there wont be another chance for you again! Andy persuaded earnestly.

In fact, he was extremely speechless now.

Andy had suggested more than once that Lucas was very likely the Master of California and even persuaded Florence to check up on him more. But she stubbornly refused every single time.

If she hadnt put on that high and mighty look when she first met Lucas and made him divorce Cheyenne, or if she had taken his suggestion to heart and sent someone to investigate Lucas, their relations.h.i.+p probably wouldnt have become so strained, and things wouldnt have come to this.

But there is no point in saying these things now.

No, I still have one more thing to do before I leave! Florence suddenly said as she bit her lower lip with a firm gaze in her eyes.

Meanwhile, Lucas had already driven to the Brilliance Corporation to pick Cheyenne up from work.

He hadnt been able to decide if he should tell Cheyenne about Florence.

Cheyennes life had been hard, and she was an emotional person, so she had chosen to put up with Karen despite being bullied by her repeatedly in the past. She had even let her off again and again only because Karen was her mother.

But even though Cheyenne was already a good daughter, Karen nevertheless viciously hurt her by revealing to her that she was not Cheyennes biological mother.

Now that Cheyenne had just come out of the shock that Karen had given her, how could Cheyenne possibly accept the fact that her mother was such a terrible person? If Karen had ill-treated Cheyenne because she wasnt her mother, Cheyenne might not feel as pained.

But if her mother schemed against her, she would definitely be miserable.

Moreover, the last thing Lucas wanted to see was his beloved woman in misery.

Thus, Lucas had been hesitating about telling Cheyenne the truth.
