Chapter 943: He’s Here
Cheyenne was clearly the child she had with her beloved, but she had mistreated her and abandoned her when she was a child. She had shown her no concern for years and had failed to be a good mother. She really owed her so much!
If there was a chance in the next life, she swore that she would definitely treat her well!
Florence slowly stopped struggling as the grip on her neck tightened, causing her face to turn purple from suffocating.
The corners of Hades’ lips curled up into a sinister smile.
“If she dies, I’ll make sure the entire Peerless Martial Association dies with her!” Suddenly, a domineering and cold voice filled the air in the villa.
Everyone was shocked as they turned to look at the villa entrance.
In the dark night, a tall and slender finger took a step out of the darkness with a fierce, murderous aura, looking just like the Reaper!
“He… he’s Lucas Gray!”
“He actually came!”
“Yes, it’s him!”
For some time, the Howards exclaimed one after another.
After all, just over an hour ago, Lucas had just left the Howard residence, and his domineering image in the banquet hall was still deeply etched in the hearts of every Howard.
There was another figure behind Lucas. It was Jordan, who was always around him.
Their sudden appearance took everyone by surprise.
They had all thought that Lucas wouldn’t return to the Howard residence for Florence.
Even Hades, who was about to break Florence’s neck, looked over. In particular, when he heard the Howards calling Lucas’s name, there was excitement in his eyes.
The prey he had been waiting for for a long time finally showed up!
But when Lucas’s face appeared under the light of the Howards’ villa, Hades narrowed his eyes with a look of disdain on his face.
He thought that the person who could kill Julian and Dwayne would be a terrifying expert, but it turned out to be a young man only in his twenties!
It was really ridiculous.
Moreover, what Lucas said also made Hades, who had always been respected, extremely displeased.
“Punk, did you just say that you’d make the entire Peerless Martial Association die together with this woman if I kill her?” Hades asked threateningly, his eyes full of a bloodthirsty murderous intent.
Florence, who thought that she was definitely going to die, suddenly opened her eyes when she heard Lucas’s voice! He… he really came!
Florence started struggling in Hades’ grip. Only Lucas could save her!
Lucas sneered. “Seems like you’re not deaf.”
All the Howards’ faces stiffened.
How dare Lucas Gray say that to Hades?!
Does he not know who this person is?
Hades’s face darkened as he shouted, “Punk, how dare you act so arrogant in front of me? Looks like you really don’t know any better!”
Ezra seized the opportunity to step forward and yell at Lucas, “Lucas Gray! How dare you speak to Hades of the Peerless Martial Association like that?! Don’t forget that your mother-in-law’s life is in his hands!”
He wasn’t stepping forward to remind Lucas about Florence’s life being at stake but to remind Hades that he could kill Florence immediately to assert dominance in front of Lucas.
As long as Florence was killed by Hades, he would have one less hindrance to deal with. Moreover, Lucas would definitely form a death feud with Hades and eventually get killed by him.
Thus, all his problems would be eliminated!
Lucas narrowed his eyes at Ezra, fully aware of his intentions.
“A villain often ends up miserable. I hope you’ll be mentally prepared!” Lucas said coldly and then stopped looking at him.
But his words and icy-cold gaze immediately made Ezra shudder as he felt horror surging from the deepest part of his heart.
He even had a feeling that Lucas might really kill him!
No… no! That can’t happen. Lucas is about to be killed by Hades! Ezra kept saying to himself before suppressing the horror caused by what Lucas said.
Lucas looked at Hades and frowned slightly when he saw the hand squeezing Florence’s neck.
“As a powerhouse of the Peerless Martial Association, it doesn’t seem right for you to be bullying such a helpless woman.
“Didn’t you want to force me to come here? Now that I’m here, you should let her go,” Lucas said coldly.
“Hah, what if… I refuse and kill her in front of you?”
With a bloodthirsty smile, Hades suddenly tightened his grip on Florence’s neck even though he had just loosened it a little.
Florence only felt a massive force on her neck, making her feel that it was about to be snapped in half. Her eyes rolled backward, and she began struggling with every last ounce of strength within her.
She could no longer speak, as her windpipe was being strangled. She couldn’t even take a breath of air.
Hades watched Florence’s dying struggle with glee, relishing in her misery. He even deliberately looked at Lucas provocatively.
What he enjoyed the most was watching these weak people struggling or raging helplessly in front of him before he killed them.
But Lucas’s behavior disappointed Hades.
Reason being, Lucas’s expression didn’t change much despite seeing Florence, his mother-in-law, on the verge of being killed by Hades. He didn’t show any panic, fear, or plead like Hades imagined.
It made Hades extremely displeased and unfulfilled.
“Hey, I heard that this woman is your mother-in-law, right? Aren’t you afraid that I will really kill her?” Hades asked with his brows furrowed.
“She’s in your hands. It’s up to you if you want to kill her or skin her alive.” Lucas looked extremely calm. “Do you really think that I came here to save this woman?”
What he said immediately made the expression on Hades’s face freeze.
“Punk, what did you say?”
