Chapter 699: Killing Three Birds With One Stone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Everyone in the venue was astonished.

Through the information Damon just revealed, everyone figured out that the Parkers and Hales had gone to confront the Kingstons together.

What was the reason then?

Bruce said it was because the Kingstons had abducted someone from Orange County, so they confronted the Kingstons to get them to hand over this person. But they had questions about who the person was and why the Parkers and the Hales had gone to the Kingstons’ together.

There were too many strange points about this matter, and many people who didn’t know the truth began to ask around to find out what had happened at the time.

But just as Damon said, the Kingstons would definitely not let the Parkers, who had offended them too, off the hook since they were now holding the Hales responsible for what had happened.

Unlike the Hales, the Parkers were now powerful enough to be almost on par with a top-tier family like the Kingstons. If two such powerful families went against each other, the consequences would be extremely different!

In that case, there would be a good show to watch.

Lance narrowed his eyes angrily and threatened, “Mr. Parker, I don’t seem to have said that I wanted to make things hard for your family. Are you planning to help this old fogey Bruce Hale and go against the Kingstons?”

Damon smirked indifferently. “If that’s what you think, sure. Anyway, it’s not the first time the Parkers have gone against the Kingstons, is it?

“I’d also like to tell you something, Mr. Kingston. The Hales are friends with the Parkers, so if you want to harm the Hales, it’ll be equivalent to making an enemy of the Parkers!”

“The Parkers’ strength may indeed be slightly inferior to the Kingstons’, but we’re not afraid of you either!”

His words were tantamount to a direct war declaration.

Most of the other families in the venue looked at each other in shock and dismay.?Aren’t things escalating… a little too quickly?

In merely a few sentences, things had escalated to the point where they were going toe-to-toe against each other and neither refused to give in!

Generally speaking, the more comparable the strength of the families, the more cautious they would be about being hostile to each other. Yet the Kingstons and the Parkers were almost about to get into a brawl at the slightest disagreement.

After all, they were at the Elite Business Exchange, and they couldn’t issue threats and then pretend that nothing had happened, especially since there were so many wealthy families.

But once these two massively powerful families went to war, it might have a significant impact on the situation in all of California!

“Hah, this is the Elite Business Exchange held by the Kingstons. If anyone dares to create trouble here, don’t blame me for being merciless!

“Immediately kick the Hales out of the venue! If anyone resists, kill them without mercy!” Lance ordered coldly.

The bloodthirstiness in his voice made everyone else present shudder.

Kill without mercy… This means a complete fall out, right?

“Yes, Mr. Parker!” responded the tall and burly bodyguards of the Kingstons in unison. Then dozens of them immediately surrounded the Parkers.

Since the Kingstons were the host of the Elite Business Exchange today, they were responsible for all the security measures and personnel.

But the Kingstons actually wanted to kick both the Parkers and the Hales out because of a personal feud. The Kingstons definitely had an absolute advantage in numbers and were a combat force that no other family could resist.

Suddenly, many other families began to worry.

Why did this Elite Business Exchange seem like a facade for a treacherous plot?

The Kingstons had the hosting rights and a strong force of subordinates. If anyone got into a conflict of interests with them, wouldn’t they be bullied and driven out without any dignity like the Hales and Parkers? Moreover, there would be nothing they could do.

“Lance Kingston, you’re really getting more and more brazen! All the Kingstons are doing is helping to host the exchange this year. Do you really think you’re the king and hold the power to control the life and death of others?” At this moment, another person came forward and scolded furiously with a frosty expression on his face.

“That’s Edmund Cole, the head of the Coles of San Francisco! He actually stepped out too!”

“Wow! Are the Coles planning to go against the Kingstons as well?”

“Oh my god. These big shots are coming forward one after another. What kind of situation will this turn into? Three of the four most powerful families of California have already come forward, and the Parkers and Coles are standing against Lance Kingston. The Walkers are the only ones left who have yet to take a stand!”

“I said before that something major would definitely happen at today’s exchange, and it really seems so! It’s only been ten minutes since the exchange started, but there’s already such a scene! Instead of an exchange, it’s more like a battlefield!”

Edmund’s appearance caused another commotion among the astounded crowd.

“Edmund Cole, this doesn’t seem to be any of your business, right? Why are you standing up for them?” Lance glowered at Edmund.

But he actually felt extremely smug when he saw Edmund coming forward.

Indeed, Lance had deliberately lashed out at the Hales in order to show how arrogant and overbearing he was!

His goal was to force all the families related to Lucas to step forth and then drag Lucas out before getting rid of them in one fell swoop!

Now, with the Smiths as his backer, Lance became much more bold.

In his opinion, no matter how arrogant and good at fighting Lucas was, he was just a small fry who wouldn’t survive for long in front of the formidable Vince, the future successor of the Smiths, as well as the experts around him.

Thus, Lance would not only be able to avenge his son and grandson, but he would also take revenge for Wendy and Vince and get rid of the forces against them. It was simply killing three birds with one stone!

At the thought of the Kingstons becoming the hegemon of California, Lance stared at Lucas with a fiery gaze.

But Lucas’s reaction made Lance somewhat bewildered.

Seeing that his allies, the Hales, the Parkers, and the Coles, had all come forward one after another and were facing a dangerous situation where they were almost going to war, Lucas remained calm and composed, as if what was happening in front of him had nothing to do with him at all.

Lucas was indeed a person who couldn’t be seen through easily!

But it doesn’t matter.. When I clip your wings and get rid of your helpers, let’s see if you can still remain so calm!?Lance thought with a cold and sinister look in his eyes.
