Lucas didn’t have time to explain much to them and simply urged, “Didn’t you hear what I said? Get to it immediately!”
Edmund and Bruce quickly took out their phones and relayed Lucas’s instructions to their families.
Although they were disgruntled and confused, they didn’t dare to disobey Lucas’s orders.
Besides, they both knew that Lucas wouldn’t harm them and that he naturally had his own reasons for giving these instructions.
After the two ended their calls, Lucas instructed again, “Don’t go home tonight. Just stay in the Stardust Corporation. It’s much safer here. I’m going out to handle some things. Wait for my news!”
Then Lucas turned around and headed to the parking lot.
“Lucas, pay attention to your safety!”
Edmund and Bruce didn’t dare to ask what Lucas was going to do and could only remind him with worried expressions.
Who knew whether they could tide through the crisis this time…
After Lucas left the Stardust Corporation, he didn’t rush to the Howards, the Huttons, or the Smiths.
He knew that since the Hamiltons had already made arrangements, regardless of which family he went to, there was no way he could resolve the matter.
With his power alone, he couldn’t destroy the other five top families of DC immediately.
The most effective method and the most important thing to do now was to find out where the Hamiltons, the secret instigators behind the scenes, were hiding so as to shock the families working with the Hamiltons and scare them into not daring to act recklessly!
Along the way, Lucas sent Jordan a text message. Soon, Jordan called.
“Lucas, according to what you said, we’ve locked down all the routes out of DC. Be it train stations, airports, bus stations, or major intersections out of DC, they are all under the control of our people. There’s no way the Hamiltons can leave silently!” Jordan reported.
“Okay, get everyone to continue keeping an eye on the routes. Also, protect the Stardust Corporation and my family. I’ll go meet Jensen Hamilton myself and see where he’s hiding!” Lucas said coldly.
“Okay, I got it, Lucas!” Jordan immediately acknowledged.
Although he couldn’t join Lucas in this operation, Jordan knew that Lucas had given him the task of protecting the people who meant the most to him, which was an extremely important matter, and he couldn’t afford to be negligent at all.
…
After learning about the current situation in DC, Jensen smiled with satisfaction and finally left the hidden villa to head toward a train station in DC.
Generally speaking, big shots like Jensen usually traveled in their own private planes and rarely took commercial airlines, let alone mass public transportation like trains.
But now that the airports had been blocked off, Jensen couldn’t get to the Hamilton family’s private jet at DC International Airport.
To ensure that he could get back to the Hamilton residence in the shortest possible time, taking the high-speed train was the fastest way instead.
He thought that Lucas and his people would never have imagined that a person of such high status as him would choose to travel by train, a method only lowly civilians used.
Thus, taking the train out of DC was the fastest and safest way for Jensen.
But just before Jensen arrived at the train station, he received a phone call from his subordinates.
“Bad news, Mr. Jensen. We just found that there are many suspicious people searching the three train stations in DC. I’m afraid that the train stations are already under their control!”
Jensen was shocked. “How is that possible? Isn’t DC in complete chaos? Lucas Gray should be in a frenzy now. How could he still have the manpower to block all the train stations?”
His subordinate hastily replied, “I also just received the news that DC is indeed in chaos. But the families close to Lucas Gray are acting strangely. When those families attacked them, they didn’t resist at all and evacuated their homes, giving up everything.
“So those families didn’t suffer any losses, but sent all their people out to track down the Hamiltons in DC just like before! So there are still a lot of people at this train station, and they’re even searching more intensively than the last few days!”
“Damn it! This is outrageous!” Jensen flew into a rage and slammed his fist on the car seat! “Lucas Gray, you still won’t let me go even at this point. Just you wait. I won’t let you off!”
Jensen was really about to explode with anger.
He was a scion of the Hamiltons and the favorite son of the helmsman. Even the heads of the eight top families of DC had to be respectful to him. Yet Lucas, a young man in his twenties, was forcing him to a corner, causing him to have to sneak around like a rat. It was really outrageous!
Now, he felt so aggravated that he wished he could immediately capture Lucas, skin him alive, pull his tendons, and make him die in agony!
An old man sitting next to Jensen also frowned and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Jensen, it seems that Lucas Gray has made up his mind to keep you from leaving DC. But the more this is the case, the more cautious we must be. We must not falter!”
“After all, Lucas Gray has united the forces of several families in DC, and they have more manpower than we do here. This is their territory, so there’s no need for us to fight him to the death.”
Jensen roared, “So, what do you think we should do now?! Lucas Gray’s people have blocked all the ways out of DC. How can I be trapped here by him?
“As you know, I have been away from the family for long enough, but I haven’t finished my task. Once the news spreads back to the family, my two brothers definitely won’t let go of this great opportunity to attack me. The chances of me inheriting the Hamilton family will be even lower!
“Tell me, what should I do now?
“Am I going to be stuck here because of a mere Lucas Gray and watch the position of helmsman be taken away from me?”
Jensen yelled in annoyance. If the car wasn’t still in motion, he might have smashed the car roof with his fist.
This feeling was too aggrieving and stifling!
