MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 6 - Season 9 Episode 28

In the meeting hall, everyone couldn’t help looking at Charlie.

Lucas obviously wasn’t going to let off the butler of the Smiths so easily.

Cold sweat broke out on Charlie’s back as he mustered his courage to force a smile and say fawningly, “Mr. Gray, I was wrong for what happened previously. Please don’t stoop to my level. I’m willing to make amends, and you may make any requests to Mr. Tyson. We will certainly give you a satisfactory answer!”

He had long lost his composure, and now, he just wanted to placate Lucas’s anger toward him and quickly leave.

He was well aware that he had already offended Lucas terribly by ordering his men to shoot Lucas.

Charlie could only hope that Lucas would be appeased and spare his life.

Lucas’s strength had far exceeded Charlie’s imagination. Even the Smiths’ top powerhouse was no match for Lucas. He had to inform Tyson about this!

While Charlie was terrified, Lucas suddenly said, “Call Tyson Smith right now.”

“Huh?” Charlie stood rooted to the floor in shock, unable to react for a long time.

Lucas looked at him coldly. “Do you want me to repeat myself?”

“No, I wouldn’t dare!” Charlie hurriedly said. At the same time, he finally confirmed that Lucas indeed wanted him to call Tyson.

Although he vaguely felt that something was amiss, he had no room to reject him now.

Charlie gritted his teeth, took out his phone, and called Tyson.

“Put it on speakerphone,” Lucas instructed.

Charlie didn’t dare to delay. He quickly followed Lucas’s instructions and put it on speakerphone.

Soon, the call connected, and an old voice sounded from the other end.

“Charlie, how are things going? Has that punk agreed to cooperate?” Tyson asked.

Charlie wanted to quickly tell Tyson about what was happening here, but with Lucas staring at him menacingly from the side, he simply didn’t dare to say another word.

“No… Mr. Smith, he turned us down!” Charlie stammered.

“What? It seems that punk is really arrogant and stubborn!

“Does he think that his martial arts skills and meager power are enough for him to go against the Huttons? He doesn’t know any better!

“Since he’s so ignorant, let’s go ahead with our previous plan and execute Plan B. Compel him, tempt him, or whatever the method, we must snatch the power of California and Oregon from him! If this doesn’t work, just get rid of him!

“I remember you brought a group of gunmen there. Let them do it. Even if that punk’s good at martial arts, he can only die!”

Tyson’s tone was very domineering, as if it was a piece of cake for him to kill Lucas.

Charlie was on the verge of tears.

He had already sent the gunmen, but they had been of no use at all. Lucas had even severed the hands of these gunmen, and they were still lying on the floor, bleeding profusely!

Furthermore, Lucas was listening from the side, but Tyson was completely clueless. He even revealed all of their previously discussed plans, causing Charlie to break out in cold sweat. He wished he could Tyson’s side and cover his mouth to get him to stop talking.

“Uh… Mr. Smith, it’s like this. After I… I interacted with Mr. Gray, I realized that he’s indeed a talent who’s rare to come by. No matter what, we shouldn’t offend him. Instead, we have to treat him with respect!”

“Furthermore, given Mr. Gray’s martial arts skills and abilities, there are very few people in this world who can deal with him. So… we’d better not become enemies with him.

“In my opinion, since… since Mr. Gray isn’t willing to agree to the cooperation, it should be because we’re not being sincere enough, and we should give Mr. Gray more benefits.

“When the time comes, we will cooperate with Mr. Gray. Even if we can’t take down the entire Hutton family, we’ll definitely be able to deal them a severe blow!”

Charlie wished he could tell Tyson directly that Lucas was an extremely powerful monster who wasn’t to be provoked at all. But he couldn’t say so directly and could only try his best to tell Tyson in a roundabout manner in hopes that he would understand the meaning behind his words.

Unfortunately, Tyson was thousands of miles away and didn’t receive Charlie’s meaning.

He asked doubtfully, “Charlie, what are you saying? Weren’t you the one who came up with the plans to deal with Lucas Gray?

“Besides, when did we say we would really deal with the Huttons? This is just an excuse to get Lucas Gray on our side. What we want is to gain control of California and Oregon and make him our pawn so that he will fight to the death with Huttons while we reap the benefits from their feud.

“Moreover, even if that punk fails to cause any damage to the Huttons, it will have absolutely nothing to do with the Smiths. Regardless of what happens, he’s the one doing everything, and the Huttons won’t be able to do anything to us. This is the perfect plan to kill two birds with one stone you brought up!”

Hearing Tyson reveal the plans they had discussed, Charlie simply wanted to die.

In particular, after Charlie heard Tyson say that these were all his plans, his heart skipped a beat as he felt Lucas’s gaze becoming colder.

Ahhh!

Tyson Smith, you idiot. Are you trying to kill me? If I die, you won’t live long either!

Damn it, this is infuriating!

Charlie wished he could fly back to the Smith residence in DC to choke Tyson and ask him if he was an idiot because he failed to understand the meaning of what he said earlier!

“No, Mr. Smith, you must have misunderstood what I meant! I… I actually don’t mean that at all. Anyway, Mr. Gray is a young and impressive powerhouse with infinite potential. The Smiths must not offend him. Do you understand what I mean?” Charlie said through gritted teeth.

Tyson finally sensed that something was amiss.

What Charlie was saying now was completely different from what they had discussed yesterday at the Smith residence.

Moreover, he seemed to sense that Charlie’s voice was faintly trembling!

This gave Tyson an ominous hunch.

Charlie didn’t seem to be in the right state of mind!

After staying silent for a moment, Tyson suddenly said, “Is that punk next to you? Get him to answer the phone!”

He was the helmsman of one of the eight top families of DC after all. He wasn’t a complete idiot, and he could easily guess the truth.

Charlie heaved a sigh of relief. Tyson finally guessed it.

Since Tyson guessed it himself, Lucas Gray probably won’t blame me for it…

While thinking about it anxiously, Charlie looked at Lucas. “Uh… Mr. Gray, Mr. Smith wants to talk to you.”
