Chapter 392
Lucy grunted painfully and got up on her feet. “Easton! Are you a man or not? How could
you kick me? Sure enough, I was wrong. If I continue to be with Severin, maybe I’ll have a better life. I was blind to choose you. It’s bad enough you’re poor but you’re hitting me now!”
Easton glared at her angrily and said with his gritted teeth, “Get the hell out of here before I convince myself to kill you! That villa and the car in the garage belong to me! Don’t even think about taking them!”
“You-!”
At first, Lucy thought about driving the car away because the car was quite valuable. Having heard that, she nearly suffocation in her fury.
In the end, she took out the key from her purse and threw it on the floor. “I’m young and beautiful! And I don’t give a damn about your damn car! Hmph! I can easily find a better man than you!”
After that, she said nothing else and left. Yet, she kept on looking back while she walked toward the door as she was afraid Easton would kick her again.
“Mister Trevor! I have bad news!”
Shortly after Lucy left, the butler of the Loughs came running in.
Trevor smiled bitterly. At this point, he had calmed down. “I know. We’re going broke. Sell anything that we can possibly sell. Damn, the Horsfield. They just left without saying anything. I’m sure they had transferred all of their cash before they left.”
Yet, that was not what the butler was going to say. “It’s not this. Other than the Horsfield leaving the city. Something happened to the Chavezs too. Draco Hall had killed every single. one of the Chavezs. They dispersed the servants and bodyguards though. Then they took over the Chavezs’ business and assets.”
“What?” Trevor gasped. “Oh, my god. Is it real? How did that happen? Why would Draco Hall. do that to the Chavezs all of a sudden? The underground force and the upper-class family have always refrained from invading each other. Why would they suddenly break this unspoken rule?”
Easton smiled bitterly. “Dad, we’re already having trouble with ourselves. Why do you have the time to care about the Chavezs? Sigh…I really never expected to see our family be in this. situation…”
Trevor looked at Easton. “You better pray the assassin you hired is going to do his job. The Horsfield had left the city and we are broke. If this assassin failed to kill Severin and got killed in return, we don’t have any money to hire another one!”
