Facing Ashton’s question, Lucas sneered. “You’re not qualified to know who I am.”
Then Lucas stopped paying attention to these people and walked away.
Ashton was so angry that he was about to explode. What Lucas did was an act of disregard for his existence!
“Hold it right there! Did I say that you could leave?” Ashton bellowed with fury.
Lucas stopped, tilted his head to glance at Ashton, and asked with a contemptuous smile, “You want me to stay? But can you do it?”
!!
Ashton seemed even more disgruntled.
He had brought nine people out with him today. Aside from the man in the black suit, who was the servant in charge of serving him, the other eight were all elite bodyguards that he had carefully selected.
But Lucas crippled the hand of one of them and knocked another unconscious with a single kick in just a few short moments. The remaining six bodyguards were extremely wary of him.
Given the overwhelming combat power Lucas had displayed, even if the remaining six fought against him together, they were probably no match for him.
At the thought of this, Ashton felt even more suffocated.
“Oh, by the way, I have to remind you that the land you’re standing on belongs to me, so I don’t want to hear anything about anyone taking over this land. It will make me very unhappy. You hear me?” Lucas glanced at Ashton’s gloomy face and ‘kindly’ gave him another warning.
Ashton’s face became even more gloomier.
In fact, he knew that the land he wanted already belonged to someone else.
He had just returned from abroad and missed the land auction yesterday. He was very upset about it and had decided that he would make whoever acquired the land give it to him.
In Ashton’s opinion, the land belonged to him, even though he hadn’t paid a single cent for it.
“You mean you bought this land?” Ashton asked Lucas, forcing himself to suppress his anger.
“You’re not stupid.” Lucas nodded with folded arms.
“I heard that you bought this plot of land for 1.2 billion dollars, right? I’ll give you 1.5 billion right now. Sell the land to me immediately!” Ashton said in a commanding tone.
To Ashton, this was already a compromise from him because he was actually offering an extra 300 million dollars to buy this land from this ignorant young man.
Lucas shook his head calmly. “No.”
“1.6 million!” Ashton said through gritted teeth.
Lucas sneered and shook his head. “No!”
Ashton glowered at Lucas and clenched his jaws. “You… Don’t be too greedy! 1.7 billion!”
He had honestly already offered a very attractive price. After all, the starting price of this land had only been 400 million dollars, and Lucas had bought it for 1.2 billion dollars. In the eyes of ordinary people, this would be considered a loss because there was no longer any room for profit.
And just one day later, Ashton actually offered a price of 1.7 billion dollars. If Lucas sold it to him, he would make a profit of 500 million dollars within one day. This was simply a faster way to make money than any other profitable industry!
Anyone else would have sold the land to Ashton at 1.7 billion dollars.
But Lucas wasn’t an ordinary person, and this land was of great use to him. So regardless of how much Ashton eventually offered, he wouldn’t sell it.
“I’m not selling it no matter how much you offer,” Lucas said indifferently.
Ashton was on the verge of losing his temper.
He had already offered Lucas 500 million dollars more than what he had paid for it. He didn’t expect Lucas to still refuse to sell this to him!
“Don’t be greedy! I’m already offering a great price! And it far exceeds the original value of this land! Don’t think of asking for more!
“Also, I’m here to buy this land on behalf of the Hills family of the royals. If you’re smart enough, you should sell the land to me. You’ll profit from it and also get a favor from us.
“But if you refuse to sell it to me, then you are an enemy of the Hills! You should know very well how miserable you’ll end up if you go against the royals.”
Ashton’s tone was aggressive and full of menace.
“Is that so? You can try doing whatever you want then.”
With that, Lucas turned around and left without looking at him again.
The expression on Ashton’s face completely stiffened.
He didn’t expect Lucas would still be so adamant after he had already revealed his identity as a royal, offered so much money, and tried to coerce him.
Not only did Lucas refuse to sell the land, but he even disregarded the royals!
This bastard!
Watching Lucas leave, Ashton didn’t stop him. Instead, he stared closely at Lucas’s back and looked away only after Lucas got in his car and left.
“Send someone to investigate him immediately! No matter what, we have to find out his real identity!” Ashton ordered furiously.
…
On the other side, Lucas apologized to Gemma as soon as he got inside the car. “I’m sorry, Professor Crawford. My apologies that you were scared.”
Gemma shook her head and asked worriedly with some lingering fear, “Those aggressive people are from the royal family? Nothing will go wrong, right?”
Lucas smiled slightly. “Please rest assured. I bought this land at an official land auction yesterday. All the procedures were completed in accordance with the law, and the land use rights are under my name. Nothing will go wrong.”
Flynn quickly said, “Yes, Professor Crawford, don’t worry! I went to the auction with Lucas yesterday, and I personally handled all the administrative procedures. There will be no problems.”
After hearing their assurances, Gemma finally heaved a sigh of relief. But she was still worried. “But now, the royals are interested in your land. They’re not to be trifled with, so you have to be careful!”
Lucas expressed his gratitude for Gemma’s reminder. “Alright, thank you for your reminder, Professor Crawford. We will pay attention.”
The two of them sent Gemma home. She insisted on moving to the land in the afternoon and would settle all her living necessities there, including food and accommodation.
Facing Gemma’s stubbornness in her workaholic mode, both Lucas and Flynn were at their wits’ end.
