Claiming Her Back

Chapter 202

“Are you threatening me?” Lucas narrowed his eyes slightly, his golden pupils tinged with anger.

When his anger peaked, it started to fall.

“I don’t dare, Lou. Trissy and I can offend neither the Thomas family nor the Hall family. Please don’t

push me.”

Said that as she might, Luna didn’t show any fear on her face. Instead, it could be told from her eyes

that she was clearly planning something.

Given where they had come to, Lucas didn’t buy anything Luna said at all. He lowered his eyes and

turned to the phone on the desk. He then said to Luna, “I want this cellphone. At what expense?”

“You want the cell? I can just give it to you, Lou.”

“Don’t play dumb. I didn’t mean the phone itself, but all the copies of the recording.” Lucas didn’t feel

like beating about the bush. “What do you want?”

“I love you dearly. Why would I threaten you with the cell? As long as you marry me, I will be your wife, © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

and Olivia will be my sister in-law. I will protect her for sure,” said Luna as she raised her head to look

at Lucas.

Luna hoped to see even a hint of hesitation in Lucas’ eyes. If he ever hesitated and thought about

Luna’s proposal, she would have faith in convincing him.

Yet Lucas didn’t hedge at all. Instead, he sneered at what Luna said.

“I think you might have gotten me wrong. What makes you think that I will marry someone who does

nothing but disgusts me? Or do you think I will sacrifice myself for Olivia’s sake?”

Lucas articulated each word. Luna’s face turned pale.

Luna had never heard Lucas say such harsh words to her. She felt torn between embarrassment and

annoyance.

Luna couldn’t keep a sober mind anymore. She had done a lot to get herself married into the Thomas

family.

Luna couldn’t stand the failure even if Lucas himself was the impediment.

“Olivia has already offended Miss Hall. Once Miss Hall hears this recording, she will never remarry you.

Besides, even without Olivia, there is still a Mr. Davison between you and Miss Hall. Will she choose

you in the end?”

Luna looked at Lucas’ increasingly solemn eyes. She gritted her teeth and continued, “Lou, are those

reports online merely rumors? I don’t think so. With so many guys around her, do you really think

Jessica is that innocent?”

“What do you want?” Lucas repeated his question, as if he had not heard what Luna had said.

But Trissy had already sensed danger from Lucas’ tone.

When Max was still alive, he had once told Trissy that Lucas had more than just competence to deal

with those old fogies on the board of directors.

Lucas had to be ruthless as well.

Trissy hurried to chime in when she saw Luna was about to speak again, “We want money.”

“Trissy!” Luna screamed in disbelief..

Trissy didn’t look at Luna but at Lucas. She said nervously, “300 million, and you can take the phone.”

“Good,” Lucas did not say much. He took out his checkbook and a pen and filled it up quickly. Then he

tore the check off and placed it on the table.

Trissy picked up the check and checked it carefully. She picked up the phone from the table and

handed it to Lucas.

“Not only the phone.”

“I know what you mean, but we don’t have other copies. This is the only one, right on the phone,”

Trissy hurriedly promised.

With that, Lucas took his phone and walked out.

When he reached the door of the apartment, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Trissy and

Luna. “I’m not Olivia. You can’t deceive me. If any part of the recording is leaked, you will have to bear

more than you can imagine.” –

Trissy shuddered at his cold warning.

Luna was unwilling to give up and followed Lucas to the door, but she was stopped by Lucas’ warning

gaze.

“After I take care of Olivia, I will have Vincent take care of you two. I’ll give you another check then.

That will be the last time. Then you should move out.”

“But where should we go?” Trissy exclaimed.

She was already used to the comfort of this high-end apartment and the luxurious life therein.

“That won’t be of my concern anymore.” Lucas then left the apartment.
