Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Jace, I didn’t expect you to be hiding here. I had a hard time looking for you!” Lucas stared at Jace’s face, his eyes full of murderous intent.
He didn’t expect that he would suddenly meet Jace in Club Illuma!
Ever since Jace was saved by the white-bearded old man in Orange County, Lucas had ordered his subordinates to search high and low for him. But he hadn’t been able to find him.
He didn’t expect to run into Jace here!
“Lu-Lucas Gray! Why are you here?” Jace was clearly very surprised. The moment he saw Lucas, his pupils constricted, and he took a few steps backward uncontrollably.
The white-bearded old man was standing next to Jace.
At this moment, there was a trace of shock on his face. Clearly, neither he nor Jace had expected to suddenly run into Lucas in Club Illuma.
“Uh, Jace, do you and Lucas know each other?” Alexander asked in surprise, seemingly unaware of the relationship between the two.
But Lucas was sure that Alexander definitely knew about his relationship with Jace and that he was looking for Jace. So he deliberately brought him here to meet Jace.
“Hmph, of course we do!” Jace said hostilely while looking at Lucas with great hatred in his eyes.
Lucas had eagerly wanted to find Jace to make him bear the consequences for his recklessness in Orange County and capture him to find out his mother’s secret.
But this place clearly wasn’t somewhere he could take action easily.
Since Club Illuma was most likely run by someone from the royal family, and the members here were basically wealthy and had high statuses, security was naturally tight.
When Lucas followed Alexander around earlier, he had already sensed that there were several top experts here, none of whom was weaker than the white-bearded old man beside Jace.
But there was no need to rush to deal with Jace. As long as he knew that Jace was here, he would have the chance to force him to talk about his mother’s secret.
“Haha, since you two know each other, that saves me from doing an introduction.” Alexander smiled, seemingly not noticing the tension between Lucas and Jace.
Then he looked at Lucas and said, “Lucas, I brought you here today because this is the most fun place in all of Club Illuma. Your trip here will definitely feel worthwhile.”
Lucas glanced at Alexander indifferently without saying anything.
But he was already a little annoyed.
Alexander obviously knew about the beef between him and Jace, yet he deliberately brought him here. Did he want to watch them fight?
But what good would it do for Alexander?
Is he on Jace’s side?
For a bit, many conjectures appeared in Lucas’s mind.
“Lucas Gray, how dare you come here? Aren’t you afraid of dying here and having no one to clean your corpse up?” Jace glowered at Lucas viciously.
Lucas raised his brows. “You haven’t died yet. How could I die before you?”
“You!” Jace was furious. “Don’t be so cocky in front of me! I admit that you have some skills, but your skills are nothing in Club Illuma! If you dare to do anything to me, you will definitely die a horrible death!”
“Is that so? Just wait then.” Lucas sneered and stopped looking at Jace.
Alexander stepped forward and said with displeasure, “Jace, what’s wrong with you? Why are you talking to Lucas so aggressively?”
“Alexander Steele, don’t f*cking meddle in this. This is a feud between me and Lucas Gray. It has nothing to do with you. Don’t try to interfere, lest you cause trouble for your family!” Jace glowered at Alexander.
“Jace Hutton, are you threatening me?” Alexander stared at Jace and narrowed his eyes.
“Hmph, if you take it as a threat, then it is! Anyway, you’re in no place to meddle with my affairs!” Jace said domineeringly.
“Fine, Jace, great!” Alexander sneered. “So much for treating you as a friend. I wanted to introduce you to Lucas, but I didn’t expect you to be so rude to him. In that case, we don’t have to be friends anymore!”
“Friends? Hah, Alexander, who do you think you are? Are you worthy of being my friend?
“I’m the future helmsman of the Huttons, while you’re just a pathetic bastard from the Steeles. You can’t even get close to the position of your family’s successor, but you think you’re worthy of being my friend?” Jace mocked. “If you insist on helping that punk, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Alexander was boiling with fury, and anger distorted his usually composed and gracious face. “Is your status much better than mine? Don’t forget. You’re no longer the successor of the Huttons either!
“Now, you don’t even dare to return to the Huttons. Who are you to threaten me?”
Jace was enraged by Alexander’s harsh remarks. He wanted to lose his temper, but the white-bearded old man beside him tugged his arm, so he forced himself to contain his anger.
“Hah, Lucas Gray, tonight is going to be your death anniversary! I advise you to say your last words now, or else you won’t get the chance!

“And you, Alexander, you won’t end up well either since you’re bent on defending him! Just you wait!”
Jace snorted coldly and turned around to leave.
