MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 6 - Season 10 Episode 5

There were many things that Michael knew but couldn’t tell Jace. Otherwise, it would be akin to treason!

With Lucas’s identity, if he really wanted to harm the Huttons, no one in the family would be able to escape!

Like Jace said, it was because of his mother’s help that Michael could secure the position of the Huttons’ helmsman.

It was also the very reason that Michael had to obey his wife’s request to drive Lucas and his mother out of DC and tell them never to come back.

Michael would never want to see his sons reaching the point of killing each other, so if he could appease Lucas by agreeing to some of his requests, Michael was willing to do so!

Even if Lucas wanted his life, he was willing!

But he couldn’t tell Jace about these matters.

“Hah, you’re doing it for my own good? Do you think I’d believe you?” Jace naturally refused to believe what Michael said and sneered. “You’re just being biased. You want to let that illegitimate son return to the family, don’t you?

“Who knows how he bewitched you to make you trust him so much! Do you believe him just because he said he could make the Huttons face another crisis?

“What does he think he is? How can he issue commands to the Smiths and the Howards?

“Dad, I think you’re really old and muddled! It’s obvious that these two illegitimate sons have joined forces to take this opportunity to fool the Huttons. Yet you’re taking their words so seriously!”

Jace mocked without restraint.

But just as he finished speaking, the secretary once again hurried to the conference room. But this time, his face was full of panic as beads of sweat kept trickling down.

“Mr. Hutton! Bad news!

“The Huttons’ businesses are under attack again, and it’s far more terrifying than the previous one! Now, all the Huttons’ businesses are shrinking rapidly!

“If it continues at this rate, we don’t even have to wait until tomorrow. In just a few more hours, the Huttons’ losses will reach seven billion! This… this is simply a disaster!

“Mr. Hutton, quickly think of a solution! Now, everyone working for the Huttons is panicking! Moreover, this commotion has attracted everyone’s attention in the capital. If several other powerful families also intervene, we won’t be able to resist at all!”

One of the secretary’s shoes had fallen off, which showed that he was too flustered to worry about anything else.

What he said immediately shocked everyone in the conference room, so much so that they broke out in cold sweat.

“What did you say?!”

“Why did it suddenly become like this? Didn’t you just say that the Huttons’ crisis and troubles were resolved?”

“Right! Why did things end up so terribly? We’ll lose billions in a few hours. How is that possible?”

“No! We have to immediately think of a solution! Otherwise, the wealth we’ve accumulated for decades will be completely wiped out in a few days!”

“Wealth is one thing. If we don’t quickly find a way to stop it, the Huttons will probably face annihilation! Oh my god!”

All the Huttons seemed panic-stricken and terrified as they stared at Michael, the helmsman.

Unlike the others who were scared and flustered, Michael was only stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly.

He certainly knew who had caused this crisis the Huttons were facing.

Only Lucas would be able to destroy the Huttons within such a short time!

Prior to this, he had really thought that the Smiths and the Howards, who weren’t on good terms with the Huttons, had really joined forces to deal with them. But Michael now knew that there was absolutely no way that they would be able to deal such a large-scale, massive blow to the Hutton within a short time.

This could only mean that in addition to using the power of the Smiths and the Howards, Lucas still held great power in his hands that could easily make the Huttons disappear from DC at any time!

Lucas had always been able to do this!

A sudden chill surged in Michael’s heart.

“Call him and tell him to stop…” Michael said to Roman bitterly.

The rest had immediately understood.

When Roman called that person previously, the latter had said that if the Huttons refused to believe him, he would make the crisis strike them a few more times until they believed him.

And not long later, the Huttons were facing another crisis that was even more terrifying and powerful than before!

Could that person really have done all of this?

Jace also thought of this possibility, and his expression changed drastically in an instant. “No, that’s impossible! It’s absolutely impossible! He… he’s just an abandoned child of the Huttons. How could he do this?!”

However, no one bothered about Jace’s disbelief and indignation anymore.

Everyone watched as Roman took out his phone and called Lucas.

This time, before he even spoke, Lucas said, “Do they believe you now?”

“Yes, you can stop now,” Roman replied.

“Okay.” Lucas immediately agreed and then hung up.

“Mr. Stevens, go out and investigate the situation. Inform us immediately if there’s any news!” Michael commanded in a deep voice.

The secretary, who was as pale as a sheet, still didn’t know what was going on, but he immediately hurried out obediently.

Everyone in the conference room was silent. They only looked at Roman from time to time, unsure if they should feel expectant or scared. There was tension in the air.

On the one hand, they hoped that the person really had the power to change the Huttons’ fate so that they could escape from this crisis of extinction. But at the same time, if this person really had that much power, there was no way they could resist if he wanted to retaliate against the Huttons.

Time passed minute by minute.

For the people in the conference room, time seemed to be crawling by as minutes seemed like years.

When the door of the conference room opened again, the secretary dashed in with a look of joy and shouted, “It’s resolved! They’ve stopped again! The Huttons’ situation is stable again for the time being!”

Hearing this result, many people heaved a sigh of relief while feeling extremely complicated.

It turned out that the child who had been abandoned and driven out of the Huttons back then now possessed such terrifying power!

“Jace, what else do you have to say now? It was because of your stupidity and ignorance that you offended someone you shouldn’t have. You’re the reason for the crisis that we faced today and why the Huttons suffered such heavy losses!

“You’re still so clueless and ignorant but think that you’re really smart. You refuse to admit it even when the facts are all laid out in front of you!

“What qualifications does someone like you have to become the Huttons’ successor?”

Roman looked at Jace sneeringly.

Jace’s face turned even paler.
