Chapter 124: Take the Dog Away

Lucas kept the same expression and said, “If you hadn’t come to pester Charlotte shamelessly, I wouldn’t bother with your stupid affairs. But if you dare to get any funny ideas about Charlotte, don’t blame me for being nasty.”
Declan burst into laughter. “Hah, who do you think you are? What right do you have to poke your nose into my business? I can do whatever I want. What are you going to do about it?”
Lucas sneered. “It seems that you really need to be properly disciplined by the Brookes.”
Declan flew into a rage.
Although Declan was not exactly considered a live-in son-in-law when he married Estelle Brooke, it was true that his family was far inferior to hers. If not for the fact that Declan looked like a handsome dandy and managed to charm Estelle, he would have never gotten the chance to marry the daughter of a first-tier family.
It was also true that this was the reason the Brookes looked down on him, and he could never hold his head high in front of them. Lucas’s words had truly struck a sour chord within him.
“Hmph, you yourself are just a live-in son-in-law. What gives you the right to say that to me? At least, I’m still the son-in-law of the Brookes. But what about you? You’re not even worthy of carrying the Brookes’ shoes!”
Lucas didn’t continue spouting any nonsense and instead whipped out his phone to make a call. “Go inform the Brookes in LA that one of their dogs is on the loose and barking in front of the Stardust Corporation. Tell them to come and take this idiot away within ten minutes, or else they shouldn’t blame me for being merciless.”
Declan grimaced in rage. How dare he call me a dog on the loose?! He even called me an idiot!
He thought Lucas was definitely just pretending to be calling someone. He didn’t believe that Lucas would be able to order the Brookes around.
“You are the dog. Your entire family are dogs…” Declan was just about to continue cursing, but Lucas suddenly punched his mouth, causing him to retreat several steps before falling hard onto the ground. He was bleeding from his mouth and at a loss for words.
Staring at Declan with a gloomy gaze as if he was looking at a dead person, Lucas berated, “Watch your language. If I find out that you’re pestering Charlotte again, I will definitely make you regret living in this world!”
After saying this, Lucas glanced at him coldly and then turned around to leave without looking back.
Behind him, Declan covered his numb and bleeding lips while looking at Lucas with a gaze full of resentment. “Lucas Gray, just you wait! I’ll get someone to kill you. I’ll see if you can still be so arrogant with me!”
At this moment, a Mercedes-Benz commercial car sped over and pulled up at the entrance of the Stardust Corporation. Aston Brooke walked out and looked around at the surroundings anxiously.
Soon, he saw Declan sitting on the ground with blood flowing out of his mouth.
In an instant, Aston realized who the person who caused trouble at the Stardust Corporation was.
Aston stepped forward, grabbed Declan’s collar, and lifted him up from the ground. “You’re causing trouble because you’re living too comfortably, huh? Who told you to come to the Stardust Corporation to cause trouble? Why are you here?”
Then he slapped Declan mercilessly.
Declan’s originally handsome face immediately became swollen, and his mouth was full of fresh blood. He looked extremely disheveled and no longer as suave as earlier.
Only now did Declan realize that Lucas had really called the Brookes and got Aston to come over.
Declan didn’t dare to say that he was here to pester Charlotte. If he did, Aston would definitely cripple him right then and there!
Declan spluttered, “I-I just happened to run into a f-former college schoolmate here and c-chatted with her, but her relative suddenly dashed out and beat me up. My teeth were almost knocked out! Aston, you must avenge me!”
Declan started complaining to Aston.
Aston shot Declan a look of disgust. If Estelle hadn’t fallen for this dandy’s good looks, a loser like him would never be fit to be a part of the family!
“Enough! Put away your sissy tricks. I’m not Estelle. Stop being so disgusting. Tell me honestly. What exactly did you do here just now? I can tell you, Grandpa personally called me and asked me to come to the Stardust Corporation to pick you up. If you don’t give me an explanation, get your ass back to LA and explain to Grandpa!”
Declan was instantly frightened. Apart from Aston, the person he was most afraid of was the patriarch of the Brooke family, the elderly Mr. Brooke. If he had to explain to the elderly Mr. Brooke, he would be dead meat!
Besides, a single call from Lucas actually managed to alarm the Brookes and get the elderly Mr. Brooke to send someone to take him back.
“He’s just a lowly live-in son-in-law!” While Declan was thinking this to himself in astonishment, he subconsciously said it out loud.
“What lowly live-in son-in-law? Who exactly did you offend?” Aston grasped the main point immediately.
“He’s just… a little loser. I’m certain that he definitely isn’t a big shot!” Declan exclaimed.
Aston immediately slapped Declan hard on his face.
“Loser? Who can be more of a loser than you? If not for Estelle’s sake, I would have killed you long ago! Tell me, where is that person? Go and apologize to him now. You might still make it! Otherwise, you can go back to the Brooke family and die!”
Someone who could make Grandpa instruct me to come here and bring Declan back must be a big shot. Only a fool like Declan would call him a loser.
Declan pointed at the entrance of the Stardust Corporation and said sulkily, “He went in.”
Aston inhaled sharply, wishing he could slap Declan to death!
He had been in Orange County for such a long time, all for the sake of expanding the family’s business to Orange County, but to no avail, unfortunately. Among the companies that the family wanted to cooperate with the most, the Stardust Corporation was one of them. As long as they could reach a cooperation agreement with it, the Brookes would develop better.
However, Aston had already tried to contact Flynn Davis of the Stardust Corporation several times, only to be rejected. There was no chance for them to meet at all.
Aston was still thinking of a way to get close to the Stardust Corporation, yet Declan foiled all his plans. This time, he offended a big shot of the Stardust Corporation!
Aston glowered at Declan resentfully and barked, “You’re so incompetent! If you don’t make it up to him later and seek his forgiveness, you’d better get lost from the Brooke family!”
