Chapter 1830: Chapter 1833: Master Lu Finally Arrived
Theodore Lucas was afraid Evelyn Bright might become suspicious, so he dared not delay even for a moment.
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, he lowered his head and smiled, “Sure, I’ve actually always liked you too. I’ve even thought about how wonderful it would be if Evelyn weren’t my daughter.”
Theodore Lucas’ words obviously pleased Evelyn Bright. She reached out to touch his face and stood on tiptoe…
Evelyn Bright was always bold and didn’t care that her biological father and others were watching.
Just like that, she brought her lips close to Theodore Lucas’ mouth.
Theodore Lucas’ entire back stiffened, and he gritted his teeth, telling himself that it wouldn’t hurt to sacrifice a bit.
He could just treat Evelyn Bright as an outsider offering herself.
A small sacrifice could buy time and ensure the successful rescue of his daughter-in-law and grandson.
Theodore Lucas slowly lowered his head, drawing closer, almost kissing Evelyn Bright’s lips.
When there was just the last bit of distance left, his head wouldn’t go down any further no matter what.
“Dad!” Evelyn Bright opened her eyes, full of dissatisfaction and anger as she looked at him.
“Evelyn, I… there’s so many people here, we should…”
“Hmph, stop making excuses, you just don’t want to kiss me!”
Seeing Evelyn Bright’s impatience, Theodore Lucas quickly coaxed her, “How could that be… Evelyn, I…”
“Fine, then kiss me. Now, immediately, I want you to kiss me!” Evelyn Bright wasn’t foolish. By now, she had sensed Theodore Lucas’ intentions.
As she brought her face closer, Theodore Lucas instinctively backed away.
He really… really couldn’t bring himself to do it…
After several such attempts, the lust in Evelyn Bright’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
Robbie Bright saw clearly, and struck Theodore Lucas’ afflicted right leg with his cane.
Theodore Lucas groaned and fell to the ground.
Robbie Bright seized the opportunity to pull Evelyn Bright back, “Evelyn, this old fellow is just deceiving you. He’s deliberately stalling for time!”
Although Robbie Bright didn’t know if Theodore Lucas had lost his mind, considering he used to be hostile towards Aidan Lucas and Lily Redington, and now was overtly helping them.
But he couldn’t care less. Whenever he saw Theodore Lucas, he felt the urge to teach him a lesson.
All the more because this man had everything Robbie Bright struggled for lifetimes to obtain, high above, for decades.
Evelyn Bright looked at Theodore Lucas on the ground with a mix of anger and humiliation.
This anger and humiliation were more intense than when facing Lily.
She thought, “I’m so beautiful, why doesn’t Dad like me!?”
“Fine, since you’re unwilling to touch me, you’re worthless to me. To control Aidan Lucas, I can’t harm those two, but that doesn’t mean I can’t harm you.”
Evelyn Bright took step by step toward Theodore Lucas, heartlessly stepping on his left hand.
“Hmph… Aidan Lucas hates you so much. If I kill you, he might even thank me.” With that, Evelyn Bright personally drew her gun and loaded it.
She aimed the muzzle at the fallen Theodore Lucas.
At the critical moment, a cold, piercing voice shattered the tension.
“Evelyn Bright, put down your gun—”
As the words fell, countless sounds of firearms being loaded echoed from all around.
It was only at this moment that Evelyn Bright realized there were over a hundred guns aimed at them from outside the villa’s four walls.
“Aidan Lucas, dare to move another inch, and I’ll immediately blow your wife’s and son’s heads off!”
Robbie Bright acted decisively, pressing the gun against Lily’s head.
Evelyn Bright reacted simultaneously, abandoning Theodore Lucas, and directly used the already loaded gun to threaten Ben Lucas.
