Chapter 165: Kneel Down and Beg Me
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hearing what Bryce said made Lucas’s eyes fill with a frightening murderous intent. He cracked his knuckles as though he was saying that he could break Bryce’s neck at any moment.
After hearing the vicious words, Cheyenne and Charlotte were incredibly horrified and shocked. It was utterly immoral! “Bryce Carter! How can you be so vicious? Amelia is only a five-year-old child, and she has treated you as her uncle for so many years. What has she done to you to suffer such treatment from you? Just come at us if you must. Why do you have to curse a child like this?!”
“I’m vicious?” Bryce asked rhetorically as he pointed at his nose with his uninjured left hand. “In terms of viciousness, how can I compare to your husband? Look at my arm. It’s still in a cast, all thanks to your husband who broke it! Now look at my head. Your husband injured it last night too! You’re calling me vicious, but have you thought about what you’ve done to me? Is Lucas Gray not vicious?”
Only then did Cheyenne realize that the new gauze wrapped around Bryce’s head was also due to Lucas inflicting an injury on him last night.
Although she didn’t know what happened last night, she knew that Lucas wasn’t the type to hurt someone for no reason. Besides, she remembered very clearly why he broke Bryce’s arm.
Previously, Bryce had also shown up here and threw his weight around by trying to chase them away. He even grabbed Cheyenne’s hair and humiliated her. But afterward, Lucas arrived in time and broke his arm.
With this thought in mind, Cheyenne said righteously, “Lucas would never beat you up for no reason. You must have gone to provoke him again last night and did something disgusting. That’s why Lucas broke your head. You should be reflecting on your own behavior!”

Her words hit the nail on the head. Last night, he had indeed gone to provoke Lucas and even tried to hit Lucas but had his head broken instead. He immediately scolded furiously, “Reflect my ass! You think I deserve to be beaten up just because I messed with him? Well, you provoked me too, so I have every right to exact revenge on you and drive you away while giving each of you an urn!”
He turned his head and scolded the middle-aged man, who was dumbfounded and staring at them with his mouth wide open. “What are you still standing here for? Didn’t you hear that we’re lacking an urn? Hurry up and go get one!”
The middle-aged man, who owned a funeral supply store, had previously received an order for five urns to be sent here. He thought that a mishap had struck this family to cause so many deaths in one go. Just now, he had even patted Lucas’s shoulder to comfort him.
In the end, after standing here and listening for a long time, he found out that no one had died, and the urns were purely sent for the sake of cursing them and making them feel disgusted. He even wanted to give an urn to an adorable little girl. That was just too vicious!
The middle-aged man was a straightforward person, so he immediately frowned and said in disapproval, “Buddy, that’s not right of you. Urns are used for the ashes of the deceased. It’s unethical of you to be giving them to living people.”
Bryce said angrily, “Since I told you to deliver an urn here, then do it! What are you being so long-winded for?! I bought them with money, so I can give them to whoever I want!”
The middle-aged man retorted, “That’s not right. I’m not going to continue with this deal. I’ll refund you!”

He really couldn’t approve of Bryce’s unethical behavior.
Hearing that the middle-aged man would rather give him a refund than proceed with the delivery of the urns, Bryce narrowed his eyes and threatened, “I’m going to insist on giving them the urns! You have half an hour to deliver the urn. If you don’t, I’ll immediately bring my people to your store and wreck it!”
“You!” The middle-aged man was instantly enraged. At this point, someone patted him gently on his shoulder. He turned around to see Lucas’s handsome face.
“Thank you for speaking up in the name of justice. Please get going. We’ll solve the matter here ourselves,” Lucas said with a smile.
The owner of the funeral supply store was a nice person, but he was unfortunately embroiled in the feud of the Carters.
“Okay then… Be careful,” the middle-aged man said after taking a glance at the tall and muscular man behind Bryce, as well as the ten-odd demolition workers carrying sledgehammers, axes, and other items around him.
After the middle-aged man drove away in his pickup truck, Lucas looked at Cheyenne and said in a deep voice, “Take Amelia to the kindergarten. It’s too chaotic here. Don’t let her see this, lest she gets frightened.”
Cheyenne thought about it for a while and felt that he was right. Amelia was still young and would definitely be scared if she saw what was going to happen. She stroked Amelia’s head and said, “Okay, then I’ll send Amelia to kindergarten first.”
Although Amelia was young, she was smart and didn’t kick up a fuss when she heard that Cheyenne wanted to send her to school. She simply blinked her large eyes and said to Lucas, “Daddy, you have to be careful! Beat up these bad guys like you did last time!”

“Okay, I promise.” Lucas smiled as he grazed his finger against Amelia’s little nose.
Just as Cheyenne was about to leave with Amelia in her arms, Bryce suddenly stopped them. “Hey, don’t run! Where are you taking this little bastard? I haven’t put on the good show that I meticulously prepared for your family! Anyway, you have to stay here and watch it before you’re allowed to leave!”
The tall and muscular man beside Bryce didn’t budge at all. He was the personal bodyguard whom Bryce had paid a lot of money to hire and was said to be great at combat.
The man stood in front of the slender Cheyenne and the young Amelia, immediately resulting in a great sense of oppression on them. Amelia shuddered uncontrollably while huddling up in Cheyenne’s arms.
“Bryce Carter, if you’re sick of living, I can fulfill your wish.” Lucas’s voice came.
For some reason, Bryce found it creepy and terrifying, as if an invisible hand had reached out from the coldness and grabbed him by his neck, making him shiver in fear.
Lucas walked to Cheyenne and gently patted her back to soothe her.
Some time ago, she began to get a sense of security from being around Lucas. It was as if there was nothing for her to be scared of as long as he was beside her.
“Lucas Gray!” Bryce gritted his teeth and hollered maniacally, “Don’t think you’re impressive just because you can defeat me in a fight! I’ll definitely make you kneel down and beg me to let you off later!”
Lucas sneered derisively. “What a coincidence. There was a man who said the same thing as you in front of me yesterday. Guess what happened to him afterward.”
