Chapter 743: Important Agenda

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lucas stared coldly at the man blocking him. “Get lost!”

The bodyguard wearing sunglasses looked inside the car and then shouted, “How arrogant!”

Then he clenched his fist and swung it at Lucas.

Since Florence had already given him the green light to hit Lucas, the bodyguard naturally wouldn’t stand on ceremony.

“Hmph!” Lucas sneered. He raised his fist and swung it directly at the other party’s striking fist.

Bang!?

Both fists clashed fiercely.

The tremendous force from their fists emitted a loud sonic boom in the air.

Lucas didn’t move, while the bodyguard took seven steps backward before he could barely stabilize his figure and stand firm on his feet.

The bodyguard’s fingers were trembling and twitching violently, but the shock in his heart was indescribable!

He was actually punched so far back by a young man only in his twenties.

If he hadn’t rapidly retreated to mitigate the force, the unparalleled force coming from his opponent’s fist would have been enough to shatter the bones of his hand!

“If you dare to attack me again, I won’t let you off so easily!” Lucas said to the bodyguard coldly before leaving without turning back.

“…” Inside the black Mercedes-Benz business car, Florence’s eyes widened in disbelief.

This bodyguard was the strongest expert beside her, and Florence was very clear about how powerful he was.

Her bodyguard’s strength ranked among the top even in all of DC.

But he had just been knocked back seven steps by Lucas’s punch. Even his hand was almost crippled!

“Madam…” The bodyguard walked back to Florence with a grave and somber expression. “I’m sorry, Madam. That punk’s martial arts skills are far superior to mine. I can’t deal with him.”

Hearing the bodyguard say this himself, Florence immediately dug her fingers into the cushion of the backseat with all her might.

“He’s actually more skilled than you. How is that possible?

“According to the information we found, Lucas Gray is clearly just an ordinary, penniless man!

“Something must have happened in the six years he disappeared! Unfortunately, we weren’t able to find out any information about him during that time… Could he have obtained some unknown opportunities?”

Florence muttered, analyzing the situation.

The bodyguard was also extremely shocked.

In fact, there was one more thing he didn’t say just now—the immense power of Lucas’s punch was almost enough to shatter the bones of his right hand. But even so, Lucas hadn’t used all his strength.

If Lucas really used all his strength and wanted to take his life, he would have almost no room to fight back.

Even in DC, Lucas’s strength was extremely terrifying, not to mention that he was now only in his twenties.

At this moment, Florence felt a sense of panic surge within her. It was as if she had just accidentally lost something extremely important, causing her to feel a vague uneasiness.

Florence forced herself to put aside her uneasy thoughts and said calmly, “Forget it. Let’s not talk about him for now. Don’t forget that besides dealing with Lucas Gray, there’s a more important matter on our agenda for our trip to Orange County this time!”

She had come to Orange County for two purposes this time. She had initially thought that she could easily deal with Lucas, and it should have been just a matter of a few words. Thus, she came to Lucas first.

But she didn’t expect Lucas to be so defiant, causing her to face a setback in the execution of her first plan.

However, her other plan was the key purpose of her visit to Orange County this time.

The bodyguard frowned slightly. “Madam, according to the information that we’ve found, I’m afraid this matter won’t be easy to handle.”

Florence’s beautiful eyebrows furrowed tightly as she said with frustration, “Yes. I heard that at the Elite Business Exchange in California, even the Smiths and the California branch of the Peerless Martial Association intervened. Vince Smith and Axel Fox, the head of the California branch of the Peerless Martial Association, both wanted to get a piece of the pie. However, they had both lost to the Master of California.

“I heard that the Master of California is still very young, but he’s domineering, tyrannical, and competent. Even Vince Smith, who’s usually fierce and stern, was forced to kneel down and apologize in public. A man like him is really godly! No matter what, the Howards must find a way to befriend him and get closer to him!”

A look of determination to get what she wanted appeared on her face.

Indeed, she had come to Orange County this time because the Howards had received some news. So they had specially sent her to Orange County and instructed her to think of a way to establish a connection with the famous Master of California and get close to him.

Even if they couldn’t recruit him to join the Howards, it wouldn’t be too late to devise a strategy to rope him in later once they established a friendly and cooperative relationship.

A young man only in his twenties actually managed to dominate all of California, making some 60-odd top families and forces in California bow down to him. What kind of a terrifying talent was he? He was definitely talented and competent enough to spur any of the eight giants in DC to do everything possible to form friendly ties with him!

If the Howards could seize the opportunity first, it would be of crucial help to their future development.

“Andy, immediately mobilize all the forces you have at your disposal to find out the identity of the Master of California is!” Florence ordered in a deep voice.

“Yes, Madam!” Andy, the bodyguard wearing sunglasses, immediately agreed, and then he asked hesitantly. “In that case, how should we handle Miss Cheyenne?”

At the mention of Cheyenne, Florence’s eyes had an extremely complicated gaze.

After a long time, she sighed and said firmly, “No matter what, she’s my flesh and blood that I gave birth to after nine months of pregnancy. She must acknowledge me as her mother!

“As for Lucas Gray, although his martial arts skills are good and even better than yours, so what? Can he compare to the Master of California?

“They’re both young men, but Lucas Gray is much worse than the Master of California, who unified all of California!

“Even if my daughter is married, she should be married to a powerful man like the Master of California! If she does, she will not only be able to obtain an extremely prestigious status, but she will also be able to help the Howards take control of California!

“Lucas Gray is just a stumbling block getting in the way! If he chooses to be stubborn and refuses to leave my daughter, I’ll have no choice but to get rid of him!”

A ruthless murderous intent emerged in Florence’s eyes.
