Chapter 1641 Lucas Escapes
Once Davin finished, Sheila chimed in, “That’s right. Why did he impersonate your dad instead of someone else?”
“Well, it was because, at that time, the Seets were the only family powerful enough to deal with the Maupay family,” Juan explained.
“Also, Daddy is often called the reaper. As such, people would believe and not question it when he impersonated Daddy to do such things.”
“But why didn’t he kill Steven right away? I mean, he’d be free from trouble once he has killed Steven.”
“Aunt Sheila, do you think one who holds deep grudges against someone will want to kill him?” asked Juan.
“Instead, one will want to torment his enemy so that he will suffer every second and every minute. Also, he will utilize his enemy to the very end. In the end, he will give his enemy a heavy blow psychologically before his enemy is dead. All in all, he wants to ensure that his enemy won’t rest in peace!” Sheila was speechless upon hearing that.
“Since Lucas’s hatred for Steven ran deep, he has decided to make it his happiest and most important task to torment Steven,” Juan continued.
“If Steven wanted to ensure that we die with him that night, both the Seet and the Maupay family would have fallen into Lucas’ hands by now. Apart from taking revenge, Lucas is ambitious and always wishes to benefit from the fight between the two families.”
After Juan finished, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat, for he felt that Lucas was a terrifying man.
Since Lucas’ life was surrounded by hatred since he was ten years old, Juan believed that such a person was abnormal.
Besides, one couldn’t deduce Lucas’ way of doing things based on common sense.
“Since the truth has been revealed, Steven should have realized that he misunderstood Evan. In that case, shouldn’t he give us an explanation about his attempt to bomb Imperial Garden? I remember that before he left that night, he said he would explain it to us.”
Since Davin gazed at Sally as he spoke, the rest also turned to her.
Immediately, Sally put down her chopsticks and said, “Daddy will give you an explanation. Besides, Skyler will surely ask him to come to Imperial Garden and apologize to you.”
“Has Skyler returned?”
Meanwhile, Evan looked at Juan with a stern face.
Juan nodded in response and said, “Daddy, Skyler was harmed by Lucas’ subordinates when he was investigating the matter. Considering that it was urgent and Skyler’s life was at risk, we decided to let him go home.”
“How many men does Lucas have?”
“Lucas has quite a lot of loyal warriors. Back then, Lucas distributed everything he obtained from Steven to those warriors so that their wives and children could live a good life. As such, he had won over a lot of loyal warriors to sacrifice for him.”
“Did you ask your men to keep an eye on Lucas?”
“Yes, I did. Daddy, don’t worry about—”
Before Juan finished, his phone suddenly rang. “W-What did you say?”
“Mr. Juan—”
“How could this ever happen?”
After hanging up the phone, Juan turned to Evan and reported hesitantly, “Daddy, something bad happened. Someone has rescued Lucas.”
With his eyes turned frosty, Evan said, “Well, it seems that troubles will soon come after us!”
Meanwhile, Davin gave it some thought and asked, “Evan, Lucas hates Steven the most. In that case, isn’t Steven supposed to be worried and afraid about Lucas the most? His escape has nothing to do with us, right?”
“Not necessarily. Didn’t he devise a plan, hoping to let both the Seet and the Maupay family perish at one go?” Sheila said.
Sheila’s word was a warning to all of them.
Unperturbed, Davin argued, “He used Steven to get his backing back then. Even though he has escaped now, he is an ordinary man with no background or power. What can he do? I think we don’t have to worry about him too much? After all, why should Seet Group be afraid of a nobody?”
“Davin, you can’t be so sure. A rogue who has nothing to lose can do anything. We have to be careful,” Sophia reminded.
“Daddy, rest assured that I’ll do my best to find Lucas!” Juan said confidently.
Juan’s men were tasked with keeping a close watch on Lucas. Now that Lucas had escaped, Juan felt he was responsible for it.
“Send him to the police station when you’ve found him.”
“Yes, Daddy.”
