Chapter 1108: Pleading For Whom?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Elise and Ashley arrived at the residence of the Steeles’ helmsman, they saw Alexander kneeling outside the front door and speaking to the person inside.
“Grandpa, I have already explained it to you several times. Godfrey and Trevor brought it upon themselves. At the end of the day, they were the ones who provoked Mr. Gray first. It has nothing to do with him!
“Also, Mr. Gray isn’t an ordinary person. If you insist on finding trouble with him, it will definitely bring disaster to the Steeles! Grandpa, please think it through!”
A furious voice came from inside the villa in reply. “Shut up! How dare you speak up for that punk when things have already come to this? He killed Godfrey and humiliated Trevor in public. The Steeles’ reputation is in tatters, yet you’re still speaking for an outsider?
“Alexander, you’ve truly grown up. You’re getting bolder and bolder and less and less respectful for the family. You no longer take me, the family head, seriously, huh?
!!
“Both of them are your cousins, your close blood relatives! How could you be so ruthless as to let someone kill your cousin?! You’re heartless, and we can’t keep you in the family anymore!
“If I don’t expel you from the family today, I think you will climb all over me!
“Leave the Steeles immediately. I’ll make sure that punk Lucas Gray dies for killing my grandson and insulting the Steeles!”
The person reprimanding Alexander was Greg, the helmsman of the Steeles.
Elise was extremely anxious, and she could tell that Alexander was still pleading for Lucas at this point.
She was naturally clear about her son’s personality. Although he looked gentle and polite, he was actually very proud and aloof deep down. It was difficult for ordinary people to catch his eye.
But based on what Ashley said, Alexander had only met Lucas twice. Logically speaking, they shouldn’t have a close friendship at all. Why would Alexander risk offending Greg to plead for him?
Moreover, not only was Alexander like this, but even Ashley had fallen in love with him after meeting him only once.
She wondered what kind of person Lucas was.
Alexander said firmly, “Grandpa, if you insist that it’s my fault and want to kick me out of the family, I have no objections. However, I’m absolutely against the Steeles taking revenge on Mr. Gray! Grandpa, you really can’t do that, or you will bring disaster to the family!”
Alexander was indeed asking the Steeles not to seek revenge on Lucas, but he wasn’t pleading for Lucas. Rather, he was trying to protect the Steeles because he didn’t want them to offend Lucas.
Although Alexander was still unclear about Lucas’s true identity, he knew that Lucas had definitely been an extremely important person in the military and likely held a very high post.
Lucas wasn’t someone the Steeles could afford to offend.
Last night, Alexander had begged Lucas several times, so Lucas had agreed to let the Steeles off, provided that they didn’t court death.
But if Greg insisted on taking revenge against Lucas, Lucas definitely wouldn’t sit back and do nothing. The Steeles would suffer heavy losses or even face the danger of getting destroyed!
Alexander believed that with Lucas’s strength, he would definitely be able to do this!
At this moment, Trevor walked out of the villa and sneered. “Alexander, how dare you say that even now? The Steeles are one of the top eight powerful families in DC. That punk is nothing to us! How dare you intimidate Grandpa with the Steeles’ future? How despicable!
“Yesterday, I was forced to crawl out of Club Illuma in public by Lucas Gray. It disgraced not only me but also our family. Do you think I’d just let it go?
“Furthermore, he brutally killed our cousin Godfrey in front of so many people! Godfrey is a direct descendant of the Steeles! If Lucas Gray doesn’t die, everyone in DC will think we’re weak pushovers. When that happens, anyone can kill us as they please. How can we have a place in DC then?”
“Alexander, one of the Steeles’ direct descendants has died, and we’ve suffered great humiliation all because of you and your friend!”
Alexander looked at Trevor and said through clenched teeth, “Trevor, you should tell us why Godfrey was killed and why you were humiliated. You should know better than anyone the truth of this matter!”
“I can forget about the position of the Steeles’ successor and not compete with you. I’ll even let Grandpa kick me out of the family, but you really can’t offend Mr. Gray. Otherwise, I will stop you even if I have to die!
“Mr. Gray isn’t someone that the Steeles can afford to offend! Grandpa, please think carefully!”
Alexander looked at the front door of the villa and pleaded.
Lucas wasn’t in the wrong in the first place, so Alexander didn’t want to see the Steeles retaliate against him. At the same time, Alexander didn’t want Lucas to annihilate the Steeles because of their retaliation.
If not for his father’s desperate efforts to save the Steeles back then, the Steeles would have probably declined and might have even ceased to exist at this point.
It wasn’t that Alexander was obstinately loyal to the Steeles, nor did he covet the position of helmsman. He just didn’t want his father’s painstaking efforts and life to be lost in vain.
Thus, Alexander absolutely didn’t want to see the Steele family destroyed.
“Enough! I don’t want to hear you or see you again. From today onward, there is no longer an Alexander Steele in the family!
“Someone, come and drive Alexander Steele away immediately!” Greg, the helmsman, bellowed furiously in the villa.
With his command, two powerhouses of the Steeles walked over to Alexander and said coldly, “You’d better go. Don’t make us throw you out.”
Alexander stood up. After several changes in expression, he suddenly yelled at the villa, “Grandpa, I’m doing this for the Steeles’ own good! You must remember what I said. If you offend him, it will really bring disaster to the Steeles!
“If you want someone to pay for this matter, I’ll be that person! Kill me!
“But Mr. Gray really isn’t someone you can provoke. I’m not trying to scare you. I’m telling the truth!”
Alexander was full of anxiety, and he shouted extremely loudly to get his grandfather and the rest of the Steeles to realize just how great of a disaster offending Lucas would bring to the family.
However, no one was willing to believe him.
