Chapter 1114: Wasted Efforts
Trevor currently had the strongest experts of the Steeles by his side, and he was no longer afraid of Lucas. So he stood in the middle of the lobby on the first floor of the Stardust Corporation and shouted without restraint as if he could easily crush Lucas.
The staff at the front desk and other employees were standing in the corner and looking at the people who had charged in fearfully.
Someone had proposed calling the police earlier, but when Trevor revealed his identity as a scion of the Steeles, everyone silently gave up this idea.
The people who came turned out to be from the Steele family. The employees couldn’t afford to offend these people!
At this moment, Alexander had already taken the elevator to the first floor. As soon as he arrived, he saw the scene in front of him and heard Trevor’s arrogant statements.
“Trevor Steele, this isn’t the property of the Steeles. Don’t behave insolently here!” Alexander snapped furiously.
Trevor turned his head to look at Alexander and frowned. “What are you doing here?”
He immediately figured it out and sneered. “Hah, Alexander, I thought you had a backbone and that you’d rather be kicked out of the family than not defend that punk Lucas Gray. It turns out you’ve long found yourself a new backer!
“It’s not that I want to criticize you, but Lucas Gray is nothing. You’re a former Steele, yet you’re degrading yourself by coming here to be at the beck and call of that punk!”
“Shut up!” When Alexander heard Trevor’s insults, his face turned beet red with fury.
In order to keep the Steeles from being destroyed, Alexander and Elise had done their utmost to negotiate with Lucas. But Trevor insulted them and even brought henchmen to the Stardust Corporation.
The ruckus Trevor and his group caused attracted a bunch of spectators, who were still gathering at the entrance of the Stardust Corporation.
Because Trevor’s henchman had knocked down the security team of the Stardust Corporation, there was no one who could chase them away and maintain order now.
The crowd enjoying the dramatic commotion were visibly shocked to hear what Trevor had said.
“What did Mr. Steele just say? Did he say that Alexander Steele has been kicked out of the Steele family? He’s no longer a Steele?”
“I roughly know why. A lot happened last night at Club Illuma. I’ll tell you about them later. In short, it was a good show!”
“Based on what Mr. Steele said, has Alexander Steele already joined the Stardust Corporation?”
“Uh… Although the Stardust Corporation has risen quite rapidly in DC recently, it’s undeniably still unable to match up to the Steeles, who are one of the eight giants of DC. Would Alexander Steele really join the Stardust Corporation?”
“In the past, the Stardust Corporation was indeed too small for him. But now that he has been kicked out by the Steeles, no other large enterprise and family in DC will dare to take him in! He probably doesn’t have a choice!”
“I think so too. Tsk, tsk. But I wonder what feud there is between Mr. Steele and the Stardust Corporation, so much so that he came here to confront the chairman.”
“I know! Let me tell you. Last night…”
…
The spectators were whispering and discussing incessantly. Many who knew what had happened in Club Illuma yesterday were happy to share the gossip with those around them who didn’t know. From time to time, there were soft gasps.
Alexander and Trevor, who were confronting each other in the lobby, naturally had no time to bother about what the crowd at the entrance was gossiping about.
Trevor raised his chin and said in a commanding tone, “Okay, Alexander, aren’t you friends with Lucas Gray? Call him right now and tell him to come out here! I’m going to break his limbs first, then drag him back to the Steele residence like a dead dog and hand him over to Grandpa! Do you hear me?”
Trembling with anger, Alexander rebuked, “Trevor, stop courting death! I have already told you countless times that Mr. Gray isn’t someone the Steeles can afford to provoke! Before you bring disaster to the Steeles, you’d better leave immediately! Otherwise, even if the Steeles can be saved, you won’t end up well!”
Although he and his mother had tried their best to request that Lucas spare the Steeles if they offended him, Alexander knew that even though Lucas had agreed to spare the Steels, he hadn’t promised he wouldn’t kill anyone.
If Trevor really offended Lucas, Alexander was sure that Lucas would kill Trevor just like he had killed Godfrey.
Trevor’s current behavior was simply a provocation and absolutely foolish.
Indeed, after hearing what Alexander said, Trevor immediately burst into laughter. He was laughing so hard that his entire body was shaking, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke ever.
“Hahaha, Alexander, have you gotten addicted to lying? I really want to see how I’ll bring disaster to the Steeles. Just by offending that punk Lucas Gray? What a joke!
“Besides, I’ve already brought some of the strongest experts of the Steeles here. Even Grandpa has assigned the top experts by his side to help me. Lucas Gray must die today!
“Let me tell you. I’ll cripple that punk’s limbs one by one in front of you and then drag him back to the Steele residence to hand him over to Grandpa and Uncle Tim. I’m sure he’ll die very miserably!
“When the time comes, I can give you the privilege of returning to the Steele residence once to witness with your own eyes just how that Mr. Gray you admire so much dies!
Trevor’s eyes were full of malice, and his face became twisted as he spoke sinisterly, as if Lucas had already fallen into his hands.
Alexander looked at Trevor, whose face had a hideous grimace, sighed, and said with closed eyes, “It seems like I’ve worked so hard for the Steeles for nothing.”
Trevor had already completely lost his rationality, and he didn’t believe that Lucas was powerful at all. There was no point in Alexander saying anything else.
