Chapter 16 The Gray Family Was Furious
“Arh!” Screaming echoed in the hall. Everyone was terrified to see Tom lying on the floor. It seemed that the gift that Lucian wanted to give Tom was to break his leg. Freya was shocked. She did not expect Lucian would break Tom’s leg in public. Damn! The Gray family will definitely come after us! Lucian sniggered. “This is the first gift I wanted to give to the Gray family! Just wait and see.” “How… How dare you break my leg?” Tom glared. He was so painful that he could not help but cover his leg with his hand on the ground. “Damn, Lucian! You’re dead meat. My father will not let you go for what you’ve done to me. Ouch! My leg hurts! Send me to the hospital now!” It was not until a moment later that Tom’s men came back to their senses. They quickly carried Tom out of the hall. Soon, the whole place was quiet again. However, everyone stared at Lucian, feeling intimidated. Lucian was kicked out of the Gray family seven years ago. He was a nobody. Nonetheless, he broke Tom’s leg just like that in public. “Why did you do that? Why can’t you control your temper?” Freya was mad. “Do you know what’re the consequences that you going to bear?” “Of course, I know.” Lucian nodded. “Tom’s father is the successor of the Gray family. He will take revenge on me definitely. He will even kill me.” “Then why did you do that?” Freya was worried. “I have to avenge my father.” Lucian continued, “My father died tragically, and it must have something to do with the Gray family. I must avenge my father now that I was discharged from the army. You don’t have to worry about me. You just concentrate on your project.” “Yeah… You don’t have to worry too much, Ms. Harrison,” Prince Ezekiel said and took out a bank card. “Mr. Lucian told me about your problem. I will invest in your project. Just let me know how much you need it. I don’t care if the Gray family is mad.” What? Prince Ezekiel is here because of Lucian? Prince Ezekiel was the most powerful man in Sioux North who owned many illegal businesses. How did Lucian know him? “Prince Ezekiel, let me explain the project in detail and where the investment will be used.” However, before Freya could finish her words, Prince Ezekiel stopped her. “I believe in you. Let me know if you encounter any problems in the future. I have to leave now. I’ve got something to do…” After Prince Ezekiel left, Freya stared at the bank card in her hand for a long time. I get 10 million dollars just like that? Freya still felt unbelievable when she returned home. Even Frank and Annie were stunned. They did not expect Lucian to know Prince Ezekiel at all. “How do you know Prince Ezekiel?” Freya asked. She still could not believe it. “My father saved his life before,” Lucian answered. Hearing that, Freya nodded. Prince Ezekiel started from nothing. However, Lucian’s father was once a powerful man in Sioux. He must have saved Prince Ezekiel at that time. “But Lucian, you can’t break Tom’s leg just because you know Prince Ezekiel?” Freya was still worried. “Although Prince Ezekiel is very powerful, the Gray family is not someone we can offend. Your father was the one who saved Prince Ezekiel, not you. I don’t think Prince Ezekiel will offend the Gray family because of you. You’d better be careful.” “What?” Annie was shocked. “Lucian, you broke Tom’s leg?” “Yeah…” Lucian nodded. Hearing that, Annie and Frank could not help shivering. They were shocked. The Gray family would revenge on Lucian for sure and Lucian would die miserably, just like his father. “Why do you have to offend the Gray family?” Frank bawled. “You’re no longer a member of the Gray family. Who do you think you are? You’d better stay away from our family. Don’t involve us…” “Uncle Frank, don’t worry. I won’t get you into trouble,” Lucian assured. “Don’t worry? You wouldn’t break Tom’s leg if you don’t want to get us into trouble. Damn…” Annie’s face turned pale. “You’d better leave and don’t come back. Don’t get us involved. Stay away from us.” “Dad, Mom… Don’t be so angry…” Freya said. “Lucian was the one who offended the Gray family. It has nothing to do with us. The Gray family won’t come after us. And I believe Gray. He must have considered all the consequences. He will deal with it himself.” “Fay, please trust me…” Lucian nodded. Although Annie and Frank did not refute again, their faces darkened. When Minnie came back from school, she was surprised to find out Lucian got the investment. She did not expect Lucian could do it. Minnie went back to her room after dinner and secretly took out fifty dollars under the quilt. She wanted to buy KFC for Lucian tomorrow as she promised him. In the Gray mansion, doctors were rushing in and out of the room. “Ahhh!” Tom could not help screaming. Henry, Marcus, and the rest of the family stood outside the room. Although the doctors assured them that Tom would not be crippled, they were infuriated and worried when Tom screamed so helplessly. How dare Lucian broke Tom’s leg? Everyone in the Gray family was shocked when they heard the news. They knew Lucian was discharged from the army but they never expect he would do such a thing. “Is he trying to provoke us by doing that?” “Grandpa, Lucian broke Tom’s leg and said this is the first gift for the Gray family. Isn’t it obvious he’s avenging his father?” asked William. William was Tom’s bother. He was worried when he heard that Tom was injured. “Avenge his father?” Marcus’ face darkened. “Who does he think he is? He’s a nobody. Avenge his father? Bullshit. Seven years ago, his father died tragically on the street. Now, I will also let him die like that. Let’s go! I want to make him pay for what he’s done.” “Stop!” Just then, Henry stopped Marcus.
