Chapter 629: Birthday Invitation

The moment he thought of that scene, Bruce had zeal and ardor coursing through him, feeling as if he was ten years younger all of a sudden.

He had already handed over the position of the helmsman of the Hale family to his grandson Connor. And this time, he actually planned to let Connor attend the Elite Business Exchange on behalf of the family so that he could rest.

But after hearing Lucas’s ambitions, he felt a desire not to resign to his fate of being old and guffawed heartily. “Okay! Lucas, since you’re going to meet them, I’ll go with you too! No matter what kind of schemes and tricks the Kingstons have up their sleeves, there’s nothing we fear as long as we’re by your side!”

Soon after Bruce hung up, Damon and Joe also called and talked to Lucas about the Elite Business Exchange.

Likewise, after hearing Lucas’s plans, they decided to go forth and stand by his side too, just as Bruce had done. They decided to go to the Elite Business Exchange together and see what the Kingstons were planning to do!

Cheyenne and Charlotte, who overheard Lucas’s conversations over the phone, were shocked.

Lucas had absolutely no intention of avoiding them while on the phone, so they had heard everything.

Although Damon, Bruce, and Joe had already publicly stated that all the businesses they owned actually belonged to Lucas when Karen and Moses’ plot was exposed, Cheyenne and Charlotte’s main focus had been on Karen and Moses at the time. So even though they had been surprised to hear what they had said, they didn’t take their words to heart.

Once again hearing many big bosses of Orange County and LA speaking to Lucas so respectfully, Cheyenne and Charlotte finally realized just how powerful Lucas was.

“Lucas, you… you are really amazing!” Charlotte gave Lucas a thumbs-up.

A few months ago, if someone had told her that Lucas could subdue the Hales, one of the four major families of Orange County, and make them subordinate to him, she might have thought that this person was exaggerating.

But the power Lucas now possessed had far exceeded Charlotte’s imagination, and she even felt that he might have more trump cards than she imagined, given how composed he was.

“Lucas, just how many more surprising things and bottom cards do you have that we don’t know about, huh?” Charlotte asked with a sigh.

Lucas smiled faintly. “Well… there should still be some. You just need to know that I can easily defeat the eight great giants of DC if I want to.”

He made it sound extremely casual and relaxing. If someone else had said it, she would definitely think that they were joking or bragging.

But Lucas was the one who said it. So while Cheyenne and Charlotte were incredibly shocked, they strongly believed that he was definitely not blowing his trumpet but was really that powerful!

“Wow!” Charlotte gasped in amazement and then inhaled sharply again. “Lucas, you… you’re really powerful.”

Even Cheyenne was astounded. “Hubby, you…”

Although she had long known about Lucas’s extraordinariness and the fact that he was once the leader of the Falcon Regiment in Calico, as well as the feud between him and the Huttons, she never thought that his true power could be so terrifying.

The eight giants of DC were top families out of reach to many people in the country. For example, although the top families in Orange County and San Francisco were also wealthy, they weren’t on the same level as the eight giants of DC at all.

The families in San Francisco and Orange County, such as the Kingstons of San Francisco and the Taylors of Orange County, would be overjoyed if they could become acquainted with the eight giants.

But Lucas said that he could easily defeat the eight giants and subdue them. It was simply beyond imagination.

Lucas smiled slightly. “It’s no big deal. Anyway, Charlotte, just continue to work hard. Perhaps one day, you might be able to develop further.”

Charlotte felt slightly touched, and she wondered if Lucas meant that it was possible for her to go to DC for development in the future and take on greater rights and responsibilities from him.

Although Charlotte was still young, she had already undergone superb training and improvements during the time she served as the general manager of the Stardust Corporation’s Orange County branch. She was entirely capable of handling the position of general manager.

Therefore, Lucas really had high hopes for her because he knew that he would definitely go to DC one day and go against the Huttons, one of the eight giants of DC, to which his father belonged. When the time came, people such as Charlotte, who was capable and trusted by Lucas, would definitely be arranged to take on important positions.

The reason Lucas deliberately mentioned this matter in front of Charlotte and Cheyenne today was to give them some mental preparation.

He naturally wouldn’t hide these things from Cheyenne since he was his wife and the woman he loved the most.

Another person Lucas trusted was William. Once he recovered and was discharged from the hospital, Lucas would slowly tell him about these things.

DC was a place that Lucas was bound to go. He hoped that his family members like Charlotte and William would be able to join him and work with him to develop in DC!

“Got it. Lucas, I will definitely work harder and help you when the time comes!” Charlotte assured confidently.

Cheyenne smiled tenderly, “Hubby, I will definitely support you in whatever you decide to do!”

Even Amelia, who was looking at picture books because she didn’t understand what the adults were talking about, suddenly raised her little head and said, “Me too! Daddy, no matter what you want to do, Mommy, Aunt Charlotte, and I will definitely support you!”

Amelia’s childish yet serious words broke the somber and emotional atmosphere, making the few of them burst into laughter.

After spending some heartwarming time together, Lucas was about to go to bed at about 10 p.m., but he received a phone call again.

“Lucas, I’ve thought about it for a while, and I’ve decided that I still want to tell you that it’s my birthday in two days, and I’d like to invite you to my birthday party. Are you free to come?”

The voice on the other end was very sweet and young.

This time, the call was from Alexis Cole in San Francisco.
