Chapter 1033: Forming An Alliance
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Derek narrowed his eyes and stared at Florence for a long ti before saying, “Hmph, they’re just so useless good-for-nothings. Since the Howards like picking up garbage, you can take them. Do you think I’d be scared of your family just because of this?”
“Haha!” Florence laughed with contempt. “So, it turns out that you think the Piers’ experts are garbage, huh? You have a really special hobby of bringing garbage around with you!”
Then Florence deliberately looked mockingly at the twenty or so experts behind Derek.
Derk was the current helmsman of the Piers, so his safety was naturally of paramount importance. Whenever he went out, he would bring nurous experts with him. Moreover, this ti, he was at the Stone residence to confront Florence. Thus, he had naturally brought plenty of people with him.
In particular, there were several strong and burly n standing behind him, each of them as muscular as Muay Thai experts.
!!
They were top experts whom Derek had spent a lot of money to hire from abroad recently. After all, the Piers had lost a great amount of combat power after the incident at the Howards’ previously. Thus, he had to replenish them quickly.
These muscular and burly n were the new subordinates of the Piers.
Eric looked at Derek and then at Florence. A smart person like him could imdiately tell that there was a deep feud between them. But this was favorable for him.
Choked speechless by what Florence said, Derek snorted coldly and stopped arguing with her. He turned to look at Rayson. “Mr. Williams, you suffered such humiliation at the Howard residence the other day. Are you going to forget it just like that?”
Damn it! This old fogy is trying to drag into this! Rayson cursed angrily in his heart. He imdiately understood Derek’s intentions.
But he was scared of Jordan and Lucas. Even if Derek wanted to join him in an alliance again, he didn’t want it.
Thus, Rayson deliberately pretended to look confused and asked in puzzlent, “Mr. Piers, what are you saying? Why can’t I understand you?”
In fact, after Rayson was forced to kneel at the Howard residence and suffered sothing so humiliating for the first ti in his life, he was incredibly upset. As soon as he returned to the Williams residence, he imdiately ordered soone to investigate Lucas and Jordan.
In the beginning, he thought that they had simple identities. But later, he found that there was a six-year gap in the information about Lucas. It was as if he had vanished from the world for six years and suddenly returned afterward.
Rayson was extrely puzzled and ordered his n to dig out information about Lucas during those few years, but to no avail.
Later, a friend of Rayson who specialized in intelligence work reminded him that soone as powerful as Lucas who suddenly disappeared for several years most likely had a special identity. It was better not to investigate him, let alone go against him.
Rayson was so terrified that he broke out in cold sweat. Since then, he was full of scruples toward Lucas. He simply pretended that he hadn’t been forced to kneel and apologize to Lucas.
Anyway, only their three families knew about what had happened that day. No one should deliberately spread the news about the matter that day, unless they wanted to beco enemies of the Williams!
Afterward, Derek had called Rayson several tis, wanting to join forces with him to deal with the Howards and Lucas.
But after heeding his friend’s warning, Rayson obviously wouldn’t dare to continue being an enemy of Lucas. Thus, he completely ignored Derek’s intentions.
It was the sa this ti.
As soon as Rayson spoke, Derek imdiately understood that Rayson was feigning ignorance and refusing to stand on his side to go against Florence.
Derek sneered. “Mr. Williams, less than a month has passed since that incident. Are you that forgetful? Have you forgotten that you were forced to kneel to apologize and beg for forgiveness at the Howards’?
“It’s okay if you’ve forgotten. I’ve already had soone record the way you looked kneeling that day. Do you believe that I’ll imdiately get people to publish it online so that everyone can appreciate the sight of the Williams’ helmsman on his knees begging for forgiveness?”
“How dare you?!” Rayson’s expression instantly changed.
He never expected that Derek had recorded the scene of him kneeling and admitting to his mistakes at the Howard residence!
If Derek really posted this video online, not only would Rayson be humiliated, but the Williams would also beco the laughing stock of DC!
Derek obviously wanted to threaten him with this matter!
Seeing how furious Rayson was, Derek smiled conceitedly and then softened his tone to persuade, “Rayson, why are you doing this? You’ve suffered so much that even I feel upset for you. You’re the head of the Williams, one of the eight top families in DC, yet two young punks bullied you. Do you think that’s right?
“Now, Eric’s son was also killed by Jordan. Naturally, he wants to seek justice for his son, and the Piers also intend to stand on the Bransons’ side. What we’re facing is only the weak and negligible Stone family and the Howard family.
“Now we’re two against one. Mr. Williams, if you join us, we’ll form a strong and united front of three top families against them! Wouldn’t this be a perfect opportunity for revenge?
“Mr. Williams, you have to think this through properly. This is a rare opportunity. If you miss his chance, can you bear to endure the humiliation forever?”
Derek stimulated Rayson step by step, wanting to convince him to stand on their side.
If three of the top eight families united, they would form a terrifying force that was almost enough to sweep through all of DC!
His persuasion was really tempting.
Just as Derek said, although Rayson had already made up his mind to give up on taking revenge against Lucas, he couldn’t possibly just forget the humiliation he had suffered and pretend that nothing had happened. But he was just forcing himself not to think about it as much as possible because he didn’t dare to take revenge against Lucas.
Now, Derek was really giving him a tempting opportunity for revenge.
If the Bransons, the Piers, and the Williams united, would he still have to be afraid of Lucas?
At this mont, Rayson’s heart was pounding vigorously!
