MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 4 - Season 6 Episode 22

At this moment, the inconspicuous black Nissan that Karen was in was traveling on the road from Orange County to LA.

Karen was sitting in the backseat, her heart in a mess.

She hated that her plan failed and that she had been exposed by Cheyenne. She hated the fact that that bastard William Carter didn’t die in the car accident. She hated Cheyenne for being so ruthless as to chase her out.

Of course, the person she hated the most was still Lucas.

If Lucas hadn’t been an eyesore to her, she wouldn’t have decided to cooperate with Nikki or tried to kill William in order to move back to the villa. It could be said that one mistake of hers had led to many other mistakes, but the cause of it all was Lucas!

But she didn’t dare to show her hatred for Lucas now, and the mere thought of it made her feel extremely horrified.

At this point, many of the details she had deliberately chosen to ignore before surfaced in her mind.

Lucas, the son-in-law she had always despised, had now proven himself to be really capable, and he was no longer the penniless good-for-nothing who had needed to borrow money from the Carters for his ill mother’s treatment.

Had I known, I would have been a little nicer to him, and things wouldn’t have come to this… Karen was full of regret!

Squeak!

Just when she was immersed in her own regretful emotions, the Nissan came to a sudden stop with the screech of the tires.

Caught off guard, Karen hit her head against the seat in front of her, causing her to fall into a dizzy spell. “What’s going on…”

Karen put her hand on her head and raised her head. Just as she was about to complain, she suddenly saw that another car had stopped in front of the car she was in. There were also several burly men standing in front of this car. They seemed rather aggressive and obviously had hostile intentions.

She immediately fell silent and cowered in the corner of the backseat, not daring to utter another word.

Meanwhile, the woman in black, Skylar, who was sitting in front, and the other two men in the car had solemn expressions on their faces.

These people in front of them must have a motive for blocking them.

The burly man in the driver’s seat asked in a low voice, “Skylar, what should we do?”

Skylar gripped the hilt of her long Bladeless Sword and said softly, “I’ll go out to ask them what they want and control them. You guys immediately turn around and leave. You must ensure the safety of this woman! Also, remember to inform Lucas and the others!”

The mission Lucas had given her was to safely deliver Karen to the Turners in LA, so she couldn’t let anything happen to her.

After speaking, Skylar grabbed the Bladeless Sword and got out of the car.

The other two people in the car were members of the Hales, and they had been learning martial arts from Jordan recently. So they naturally knew who Skylar was referring to.

Because they hadn’t expected people to stop them, they only had the three of them, and they even had to protect a woman who couldn’t do anything at all.

They were facing six people and outnumbered.

Now, the best thing to do now was indeed what Skylar said.

But before the two of them had time to turn around, several rays of bright lights darted over from the road behind them. Another three cars drove over and lined up in a row, completely preventing them from leaving.

Even Skylar’s expression became extremely gloomy.

Karen was just an ordinary woman with no common sense or much knowledge. So after seeing this situation, she immediately trembled in fear.

“Aaahh! Who are these people? Are they enemies you provoked?” Karen cried out in horror.

Standing in front of the Nissan, Skylar asked in an icy cold voice, “Who are you? What are you trying to do by blocking us?”

A bald and burly man walked out and spat the gum in his mouth onto the ground. He said slowly, “Leave the woman in your car and get lost or die!”

With an intimidating aura and a muscular body, he looked to be their leader.

Skylar was a bit surprised. She initially thought that these people might have been sent by the Peerless Martial Association to track her down, but it turned out that their target was Karen!

To be honest, Karen was just an ordinary woman who, though vicious, neither had a powerful background nor the chance to offend other big shots. In that case, who would want to capture her?

Inside the car, Karen also heard those words, and she immediately shrank and huddled up, wishing she could embed herself into the seat.

“I… I didn’t offend anyone. Why are they looking for me?” Karen cried as she sneaked a glance at these people, but she was quickly frightened by their terrifyingly well-developed muscles.

Although Skylar disliked Karen, Lucas had instructed her to send Karen back to the Turner residence, so she naturally wouldn’t compromise.

“That won’t do. I can’t hand this woman over to you!” Skylar refused outright and continued, “If you have other demands, either money or something else, we can discuss it amicably. How does that sound?”

Skylar and the rest were at a disadvantage, so they naturally had to come up with a solution instead of rushing up recklessly to die. They at least had to stall for some time

The people in the car must have informed Lucas by now. If they were lucky, they might be able to hold out until reinforcements came.

The bald man, however, had no intention of negotiating with Skylar. “If you don’t hand her over, all of you will die here!”

He issued an order, and several people around him, as well as those who got out of the cars blocking the road behind, surrounded the Nissan.

Skylar immediately raised her huge Bladeless Sword and confronted the enemies.

The two members of the Hale family in the car naturally didn’t sit by idly. They gritted their teeth and got out of the car, leaving behind only the clamoring Karen.

——

Just a minute ago, Lucas, who was holding Cheyenne in his arms and comforting her in the hospital, suddenly received an urgent call. “Lucas, bad news! More than ten people have intercepted us along the way, and their target is Karen. We need support!”

Lucas’s expression immediately changed.

He hadn’t expected his subordinates to be intercepted while sending Karen back to LA.

But there was no time to think about it now. He had no choice but to pat Cheyenne’s back and say regretfully, “I’m sorry, Cheyenne. I have some urgent matters to deal with now, so I have to get going.”

Cheyenne stood up from Lucas’s embrace. Although she was still a bit reluctant for him to leave, she had always been an understanding woman. She asked in concern, “What happened? Is it serious?”

Afraid that she would be worried, Lucas didn’t tell her that people had intercepted Karen and merely said, “It’s alright. Just some small matter at the office I can resolve quickly. Rest well!”

“Okay, you too!”

Lucas nodded and left William’s ward. Just as he walked away, he immediately took out his phone and made a call. “Gather people to support Skylar’s group on the section of the road leading from Orange County to LA near Pyramid Lake!”
