Chapter 1752: Chapter 1755: The Humble and Disgraced Theodore Lucas
Aidan Lucas ordered, and Benjamin Lucas IX restarted the vehicle without hesitation, bypassing the beggar and driving forward.
The dashcam in the car had already been turned on.
Just as the car bypassed the beggar and accelerated forward.
The beggar, filthy all over and previously motionless, suddenly sprang up from the ground.
He suddenly, as if he didn’t care for his life, lunged toward the car’s front.
“Don’t stop, drive through—” Aidan Lucas said sternly.
Benjamin Lucas IX received the order and pressed the accelerator without easing up, pushing it all the way down.
The beggar, originally rushing towards this side with great force, saw the car not slowing down but accelerating instead.
Realizing that if he continued to lunge forward, he’d crash into the car’s front, he had to muster all his strength to throw himself aside, rolling over and tumbling to the roadside.
The car sped away quickly, followed by several black luxury cars speeding past at the same pace.
The beggar who rolled to the roadside struggled to get up, realizing that the car he wanted to stop by feigning collision was long gone.
“Ai…dan…Lucas—” the beggar choked out with a voice thick with irrepressible resentment.
He looked in the direction of the departing vehicles, and furiously hurled a dagger he had been hiding in his hand.

“Who was that just now? Definitely didn’t look like an ordinary beggar; he deliberately tried to crash into our car.” Lily asked, still feeling a lingering fear after the car had passed.
If it were an ordinary fraudster, failing wouldn’t lead to a life-risking struggle.
But that man just now clearly didn’t care for his life.
He seemed to be targeting them specifically.
“It was Theodore Lucas.” Mr. Lucas frowned, his gloomy eyes revealing his current unease.
“He is Theodore Lucas!?” Lily exclaimed in shock.
The beggar just now, his hair was grizzled, his face smeared with dirt and wrinkles, and his hands were incredibly rough.
How long has it been since last seeing Theodore Lucas?
About half a month or so.
Theodore Lucas used to be handsome in appearance and well maintained, totally unlike the beggar from a moment ago.
Moreover, his black hair had completely turned grizzled.
“Lily, you should bring more people with you recently, possibly call Sadie and Winston to B City. Theodore Lucas’ actions just now were too abnormal; he has always been one to cherish life, but his behavior just now was clearly reckless.”
Aidan Lucas had been plotting to gradually undermine Robbie Bright’s influence, slowly seeking revenge for Grandma.
He hadn’t sent anyone to monitor Theodore Lucas’s movements.
Not knowing why he had fallen to this state.

Meanwhile, back on the other side.
Theodore Lucas, having become a beggar, dragged his right leg with recurring old injuries, barely managing to reach a mansion from the spot where he almost got hit by the car.
Because he was penniless, unable to even take a bus, he had to rely solely on his legs to get around.
By the time he reached the mansion from the previous location, it was already dusk.
The sun setting in the west, Theodore Lucas hid under a cedar tree outside the mansion, his filthy eyes fixed on the mansion entrance.
He had been watching here for several days.
Knowing that soon Tara Hammond, that old bitch, would come to the front yard for a digestive walk.
This was a habit Tara Hammond had formed over the years, and through Theodore Lucas’s observation, he found she hadn’t broken it even now.
Hiding under the cedar tree, looking at the expansive mansion in the sunset.
Theodore Lucas’s sinister eyes gradually became ferocious and terrifying.
This is all his, it’s all his!
But now, it’s being usurped by Robbie Bright and Tara Hammond, those treacherous adulterers!
Upon this thought, he tightly gripped the dagger in his right hand.
Just waiting for the moment Tara Hammond stepped out!
