After Lucas and Jordan left World Entertainment City, they drove back to the hotel.

Jordan suddenly asked worriedly, “Lucas, is Roman reliable? He won’t betray us?”

Lucas smiled and said indifferently, “He’s not foolish.
Besides, even if he really betrays us and informs the Huttons, what’s the big deal?”

Given Lucas’s current status and identity, even if the Huttons found out that he hated them, there was nothing they could do to him.

Not to mention that the Huttons were only one of the eight top families in DC, even royal families wouldn’t be able to do anything to Lucas!

Realizing that he had asked a stupid question, Jordan shrugged and laughed awkwardly.

… …

After washing up, Lucas made a video call to Cheyenne and Amelia, who were in Orange County.

As Lucas looked at his gentle and beautiful wife and adorable and bubbly daughter on his phone screen, his heart softened.

“Lucas, are you doing fine in DC? How are things going?” Cheyenne asked with concern.

During the last two days that Lucas wasn’t around, she had been feeling empty, as if something was missing.

She knew that it was the feeling of missing him.

Lucas smiled warmly.
“Yes, I’m almost done handling my matters here.
I’ll be heading home in a few days!”

The family of three chatted for a long time before ending the video call.

…

The following morning, a shocking piece of news was unanimously reported by various media outlets.

Joanna Moore and Enzo Hutton, the wife and son of Collin Hutton, the brother of the Huttons’ helmsman, had been assassinated overnight!

A trace of surprise appeared on Lucas’s face when he saw the news.

Lucas was extremely clear about who had killed these two people.

After all, Lucas had also investigated what had happened to Roman and his mother back then.

Joanna had sent a hitman to get rid of Roman and his mother so that she could secure her son’s position as the successor.
In the end, Roman’s mother died to save him.

It was already tough for Roman to endure this deep hatred until this day.
Now that he had finally found an opportunity, how could he possibly let it go?

Moreover, Enzo’s death increased Roman’s chances of becoming the successor.

Roman’s father had only one legitimate son, Enzo, and his illegitimate son, Roman, had been kicked out by the Huttons a long time ago.

Now that Enzo was dead, Roman was Collin’s only remaining son.

Be it for the sake of carrying on his bloodline or his fortune needing an heir, Collin had no choice but to bring Roman back to the Huttons.

“Roman, it seems you had a plan long ago! In that case, I’ll give you another hand!” Lucas smiled.

Soon, another piece of shocking news appeared on various major media outlets.

“Jace Hutton had his cousin Enzo Hutton assassinated to protect his status as the successor of the Huttons!”

As soon as this news broke, it immediately caused an uproar on the various online media platforms and stirred up public opinion.

There was an upheaval in DC.

Of course, it was done by Lucas.

At the same time, he had also informed the Smiths and the Howards to start attacking the Huttons.

Of course, just the Smiths and the Howards alone, who were almost equal to the Huttons, couldn’t deal a huge blow to the Huttons quickly.
What Lucas needed at the moment was speed, so he also arranged for a portion of his manpower to attack.

These forces simultaneously began to attack the Huttons’ properties that Jace controlled.
Furthermore, Jace was already deeply involved in the murder of Enzo, so he was simply overwrought!

The Huttons were now in chaos.

In a large conference room in the Hutton residence in DC…

At this moment, there were many direct descendants of the Huttons in the large conference room that could fit nearly a hundred people.

There was a middle-aged man sitting in the master seat of the conference table.
He had a gaunt face and seemed sickly.
He was Michael, the helmsman of the Huttons.

Next to Michael was also a middle-aged man of similar age and appearance to him.
It was his brother Collin.

Sitting on the other side was a thirty-year-old young man.
He was Jace, Michael’s son, Lucas’s half-brother, and the current successor of the Huttons.

But Jace looked extremely sullen.

The atmosphere in the conference room was exceptionally depressing.
Although there were many people, few dared to speak, and they were all glum.

“Everyone,” Michael slowly said.
“I asked everyone to come here today for an important matter that we need to discuss.”

Everyone in the conference room turned to look at him.

“I’m sure everyone has gotten the news by now.
The Smiths’ and the Howards’ attack on our various businesses has caused a huge impact.

“According to the preliminary news reported by the finance department, we have suffered losses of hundreds of millions within just one day!

“And if we let this continue, I’m afraid our losses will increase even further!

“So, I asked everyone to come over to discuss how we should deal with this matter!”

Michael glanced at the family seriously.

Suddenly, Collin sneered and said hostilely, “Michael, there are still some things that you haven’t mentioned yet.
Do you not want to bring it up, or are you too afraid to do so?”

Michael frowned immediately.
“What do you mean by that?”

Collin snorted coldly and stared at Jace sitting nearby.
“Jace Hutton! Let me ask you.
You’re in charge of all the businesses the Smiths and the Howards are targeting, right?”

Surprise appeared on the faces of the Huttons in the conference room.

Indeed, almost without exception, all the family businesses facing a crisis were the ones Jace had taken over.

But Jace was Michael’s son after all, and he was also the successor of the family.
So although many people were well aware of it, no one dared to raise this matter.

But they didn’t expect Collin to be the first to say it.
Moreover, his tone was extremely hostile, and it seemed that he was targeting Jace!

Recalling the other news on the media platforms, almost all the Huttons seemed to understand the reason for Collin’s sudden outburst at Jace.
