Chapter 365 - Qualified Lackey

Although Darren was baffled as to why the Kingstons forbade them from dealing with Lucas even after Henry's death and even seemed to have the intention of letting him off, he had no choice but to obey Marc's orders and quickly agreed, "Yes, Mr. Kingston!"
After leaving the Wallaces' manor, Marc raised his head to look into the distant sky with a vicious gaze in his eyes. "Hmph, Lucas Gray, I'll let you live for a few more days. Soon, you will die without a grave!"
Soon, the news of Pierre's death spread throughout Orange County.
The Wallaces merely told everyone that Pierre had died because of a sudden cardiac arrest resulting from the shock of the tragic death of his grandson Liam.
But only ordinary people would be fooled by this explanation. The people of the top families all found his death to be very bizarre.
After all, even though Pierre was almost 70 years old, he had always been in good health and had never suffered from any heart diseases. So they found it unlikely that he would suffer from a sudden cardiac arrest.
More importantly, Pierre's grandson Liam had died only two days ago, and his corpse was still lying in a coffin in the middle of a hall in the Wallaces' manor. Yet Pierre had suddenly passed, and the new head of the family was now Darren and not Bryant.
All in all, everything was bizarre.
At this moment, many people in Orange County were secretly discussing this matter and directing their suspicions at Lucas, suspecting that he might have something to do with everything that happened to the Wallaces.
After all, Lucas and Liam had gotten into an altercation over the auction of a beautiful girl at the auction venue in Club Splendor the other day, which everyone present had witnessed with their own eyes.
But afterward, the news of Liam's death spread on the very same night of the auction.
Although it wasn't stated explicitly, many guessed that it must have something to do with Lucas.
Now that Pierre had also died, all kinds of rumors about Lucas became even more rampant.
Bruce, the head of the Hales, was extremely cautious when he mentioned this matter to Lucas. "Mr. Gray, I've already gotten the exact news, and they say that… Pierre Wallace has already died."
Lucas was stunned for a while, but he immediately understood Bruce's purpose for calling. He laughed and asked, "Surely you don't think that I was the one who did it, right?"
Bruce immediately understood that Lucas wasn't the culprit, but he didn't admit to his previous suspicions. Instead, he hurriedly said, "How is that possible? I just think that there's something really strange about this matter. Pierre Wallace is several years younger than me, and he has always been in good health. How did he just die all of a sudden? There must be something more to this."
Lucas agreed calmly, but he immediately thought of the Kingstons.
Henry, whom Stanley had killed last night, worked for the Kingstons, and now that Pierre had suddenly died a day after Henry's death, Lucas was certain that this matter had something to do with the Kingstons.
The Kingstons… A sharp glint flashed across Lucas's eyes.
In fact, Lucas didn't have a feud with the Kingstons in the first place, nor had he ever crossed paths with them. But for some reason, the Kingstons had decided to stoop low and let themselves be reduced to becoming the lackeys of the Huttons. They obeyed the Huttons and went against Lucas all the time.
First, they spread the news that Lucas was abandoned by the Huttons and that the Huttons were going to suppress the Stardust Corporation, causing the status of the Stardust Corporation in Orange County to be much lower than before.
Later on, they also secretly incited Oliver Harvey, a senior executive of the Stardust Corporation, to spread false rumors about an affair between Flynn and Charlotte. Afterward, he even jumped to his death and caused the media to shed a negative light on the Stardust Corporation, resulting in public outrage. Although Lucas found out later that the culprit was Dave Lewis, the Kingstons were actually the true mastermind.
The person who secretly took photos of Lucas and Amelia at the amusement park was also sent by the Kingstons.
Scott Taylor even leveraged the power of his family and declared that he would seize Lucas's villa in Pearl Lake, all for the sake of pleasing Marc Kingston.
Of course, in addition to these matters, they had also carried out many underhanded tricks secretly.
The Kingstons put in plenty of effort to become excellent lackeys of the Huttons.
Lucas snapped out of his thoughts and said over the phone, "How much do you know about the Kingstons?"
Bruce was stunned and said carefully, "The Kingstons are a large family from San Francisco whose power is definitely among the top. Even though the Hales are one of the four most powerful families in Orange County, we're worlds apart from the Kingstons. It's safe to say that the Kingstons can annihilate us effortlessly.
"As far as I know, the Kingstons should have gotten the support of one of the eight greatest families in DC and have developed even more rapidly in recent years. But I'm not clear which specific family is helping them."
Lucas acknowledged. Seems that it's not an absolute secret that the Kingstons and the Huttons are related.
During the next few days, Lucas thought that the Kingstons would continue to attack him. But they were surprisingly quiet, which he felt was bizarre.
But Lucas didn't take the Kingstons very seriously and merely asked Wade and Stanley to continue protecting his family.
The past few days, Amelia had been pestering Cheyenne to tell her bedtime stories, and neither Cheyenne nor Lucas could bear to disappoint their precious daughter, so they never had the chance to get intimate with each other.
But apart from not being able to do the deed, their relationship was getting better and better. They were really just like a true married couple.
It was Friday. After getting off from work in the evening, Cheyenne hesitated for a while before suddenly saying to Lucas, "Lucas, it's my cousin's wedding day the day after tomorrow. My mom said that we should go there tomorrow to add a touch of liveliness and see if there's anything we can do to help."
After thinking about it, Lucas nodded. "Okay, let's go together then."
Cheyenne said with a trace of worry on her face, "Do you… really want to go?"
Lucas naturally understood what Cheyenne was worried and concerned about.
Karen's harsh attitude toward Lucas just went to show that she had always been displeased and prejudiced against him.
Karen's family members were also just as mercenary and materialistic as her. They would look up to the rich and despise the poor. In the past, they would make lots of nasty remarks about Lucas right in his face.
Just like those who met Lucas in the Carter residence after he returned to Orange County, they all treated him like garbage.
So Cheyenne was worried that Lucas would face the humiliation of those relatives at the wedding.
Lucas said nonchalantly, "It's up to them to say whatever they want. It doesn't affect us anyway. As long as you know that I'm not like what they say, I don't care about the opinions of others."
Cheyenne was touched to hear this and took the initiative to hug him. "Okay, let's go together tomorrow then!"
