Chapter 534: Invitation To Form An Alliance

“Lucas Gray!” Upon hearing this name, Frederick roared with extreme viciousness and resentment.

As the helmsman of the Taylor family, he was no stranger to this name.

Moreover, Frederick was well aware that Marc had asked the Taylor family to cooperate with him to deal with Lucas.

But he could have never imagined that Lucas would have the audacity to kill his son!

At the thought of Scott’s last phone call to him before the gunshots, he suddenly realized that Scott seemed to be telling him that Lucas had just barged in. A second after that, the gunshots sounded!

Frederick had no doubt that his son had definitely been killed by Lucas for revenge!

He clenched his fist fiercely and said through gritted teeth, “Where is my son now? Even if he’s dead, his corpse has to be sent back to the Taylors!”

The bodyguard immediately said, “I’ve brought Mr. Scott back. He’s in the hall downstairs!”

Without saying another word, Frederick pushed open the door of the room and rushed downstairs, only to see at a glance the familiar body placed in the center of the hall.

His face was still the same as before, and his body was rotund as usual. In fact, it was still warm.

But the fabric of his floral shirt on his chest was already soaked with blood, and blood was still gushing out from the gunshot wound in his chest.

His eyes were still wide open, and his lips were slightly parted, as if at the moment of his death, he was extremely shocked and in immense disbelief.

“Scott!” Frederick shouted in extreme grief and indignation. The rest of the Taylors stood at the side, not daring to move at all, all seeming to be in disbelief.

After a long while, Frederick took several deep breaths and suddenly opened his eyes with a terrifying aura emanating from his body. “Lucas Gray! I want him dead! Bring him back to me alive immediately. I want to kill him myself to take revenge for my son!”

The Taylors didn’t dare to disobey the family head at all, especially now that he was enraged!

Although many of them usually didn’t have any good feelings about Scott, they all felt that anyone who dared to kill a Taylor was making an enemy of all of them!

Lucas was just an abandoned son of the Huttons. But now, he had actually killed Scott, the son of the helmsman. This was an enmity of life and death!

After sending all the competent people in the family to track Lucas down, Frederick got increasingly furious as he looked at his son’s face.

He took out his cell phone and immediately called Darren Wallace, the current head of the Wallace family.

Frederick didn’t say much nonsense and immediately asked, “Mr. Wallace, I’m calling you this time to ask you if the death of your nephew Liam was the doing of Lucas Gray.”

After the sudden death of the former helmsman, Pierre Wallace, Darren succeeded his position. In terms of age and seniority, Darren was a generation junior to Frederick, so Frederick was very straightforward with his words.

Of course, Frederick still didn’t know that Pierre hadn’t died of a sudden serious illness, but rather, he had been shot dead on the spot by Marc Kingston.

Darren frowned and then said, “Mr. Taylor, what exactly do you want to say? You can just say so.”

Frederick said straightforwardly, “Just ten minutes ago, my youngest son, Scott, was killed by Lucas Gray! I’ve already made up my mind. I’m going to do my best to seize that punk. Previously, I heard that Liam was also killed by Lucas Gray. How about we join hands to capture that punk and torture him to death to avenge our murdered family members?”

Darren was surprised.

He didn’t expect Lucas to have killed Frederick’s youngest son too. In that case, Lucas’s prospects were bleaker and bleaker!

But Darren didn’t agree with the Taylors’ decision to rope other forces in. Instead, he feigned ignorance and asked, “My nephew was killed by Lucas Gray? I had no idea. Mr. Taylor, how did you learn about it? This is definitely a rumor. I haven’t even found out the cause of my nephew’s death yet!”

Previously, the Wallaces had tried to work together with the Kingstons to deal with Lucas, but the experts they sent were useless. In the end, even the elite sent by the Kingstons had gotten killed by Stanley, Lucas’s bodyguard.

Later on, the Kingstons told them to stop dealing with Lucas for some reason. Darren naturally couldn’t ask for more.

Anyway, the one who died was Liam, his brother Bryant’s son. Bryant was now going against him both openly and secretly because he was disgruntled over the fact that he was the new helmsman of the Wallaces.

Frederick had a look of surprise because he didn’t expect Darren to refuse to admit to this matter. So he naturally knew that Darren wouldn’t join hands with him to deal with Lucas.

He was also an extremely arrogant person. Since the Wallaces weren’t willing, he wouldn’t force them. He said coldly, “If that’s the case, then forget it!”

With that, he simply hung up.

After thinking about it, Frederick called Ethan Sawyer and Bruce Hale, the helmsmen of two of the four major families, in hopes of finding an alliance. He even said that after Lucas’s destruction, the company and properties under his name would be equally divided among them.

Of course, Ethan and Bruce had long been on Lucas’s side, so they naturally wouldn’t agree to his request to form an alliance.

After being rejected by the helmsmen of the other major families, Frederick couldn’t help feeling enraged.

Frederick stared at his phone with a vicious and menacing expression as he muttered to himself, “Hah, do these idiots really think I need their help?”

The reason he decided to call the helmsmen of the other three families was undoubtedly to test them and see if they were willing to stand on the Taylors’ side.

The truth had now proven that these three families were too ignorant for their own good. In that case, he decided that he didn’t have to show them any respect from now on!

“Once the matter regarding Lucas Gray is settled, the Taylors will no longer have to conceal our strength and bide our time!”

Frederick had a domineering and tyrannical certainty in his eyes. “It will be a piece of cake for the force behind the Taylors to conduct a big wipeout of the forces of Orange County!”

——

At this moment, Lucas, who was driving to San Francisco, received phone calls from Ethan and Bruce one after another. They even reported to him that Frederick, the helmsman of the Taylor family, was trying to rope in the two of them to join forces against Lucas.

With an expressionless face, Lucas replied indifferently, “Since the Taylors are courting death, they’d better be prepared to be annihilated!”

His words immediately made Ethan and Bruce both excited and agitated.

The dynamic of the four major families in Orange County had been fixed for many years, and the Taylors, who had the support of that mysterious force behind them, definitely had a hidden agenda. The Taylors might one day bite at the other three families.

With Lucas’s assurance, they could now anticipate the impending doom of the Taylors!

By then, the Sawyer and Hale families would rise greatly!

Just as Lucas hung up the phone and was about to drive away from Orange County, a white BMW suddenly drove up near the entrance of the highway and stopped directly in front of his car.

The door opened, and a slender young man stepped out of it. Staring coldly at Lucas sitting in the Jaguar, he smirked and got into a provocative stance.
