MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 6 - Season 9 Episode 67

Soon, the news of the murders of both Thomas and Vince spread throughout DC.

Everyone was shocked!

Almost everyone in DC knew who Thomas and Vince were.

But these two big shots were killed in the hospital by a mysterious man. As soon as the news spread, the powerful families in DC were stunned and afraid that they would face the same trouble. For a time, everyone felt like they were in danger.

“What did you say? Thomas and Vince Smith both died in the hospital?”

“But don’t they have a lot of experts and bodyguards around them? How could they die so easily?”

“Who exactly is the culprit!?”

Lucas had already left the Smiths’ manor.

Tyson was extremely shocked when he suddenly received the news that Thomas and Vince had been murdered.

But after sitting down in his chair, he suddenly remembered what Lucas had said to him before he left.

“Soon, the obstacles hindering you in the Smith family will no longer exist, and you will become the true helmsman.”

Now, the two people who had been going against him suddenly died.

Was it possible that Lucas had done all of this?

The more Tyson thought about it, the more afraid he became.

If the person Lucas had chosen wasn’t him but Thomas, wouldn’t it mean that he would be the one who was dead now?

At the thought of this, Tyson couldn’t help wiping the cold sweat on his forehead. He was very glad that Lucas had chosen him and that he had made the right decision!

…

In an extremely vast estate near the south of DC…

In the middle of the tallest and most luxurious villa, a middle-aged man in his fifties was standing in front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows on the fifth floor, gazing at the distant sky.

The middle-aged man was tall, with a height of about 1.8 meters and handsome facial features. He should have been a handsome man when he was young. But most of the hair on his head had turned white, and due to his gaunt figure, he seemed quite feeble.

He was now looking out the window, his expression full of despondency.

At this moment, an old man dressed in a butler’s uniform walked over and said softly, “Master, Mr. Lucas is in DC right now.”

After the middle-aged man heard this, the emotion on his face changed slightly. He seemed surprised and agitated, with a few traces of panic and sorrow.

He turned his head and murmured softly, “Twenty years have passed. He has finally returned to DC!”

There were a lot of vicissitudes and complicated emotions in the middle-aged man’s eyes.

“Twenty years ago, I personally ordered for him and his mother to be driven out of the Huttons and also out of DC. I even threatened them not to come back to DC in their lifetime.

“And now, has he finally stepped into DC again because he’s become strong enough to fight against me and the Huttons?

“Oh no, I’m wrong. In fact, with the power he now possesses, it’s actually a piece of cake for him to destroy the Huttons.

“He’s no longer the weak and helpless child from back then…

“Now that he has come back to DC, does he want to settle scores with me and make me pay off the debts I owe?”

…

The middle-aged man closed his eyes slightly, and his face was covered with a look of bitterness.

“Mr. Taylor!” The old butler looked worried.

This middle-aged man was naturally the current helmsman of the Huttons, one of the eight most powerful families in DC, and Lucas’s biological father, Michael Hutton.

He was only in his early fifties, but the hair on his head was already half white, and he didn’t seem too well. He was also extremely thin, as if he was seriously ill.

The butler hesitated for a moment before saying, “Master, I think Mr. Lucas still has strong feelings for you that lie beyond just hatred. Otherwise, given his current status and strength, it would be easy to destroy the Huttons even if he wanted to. But he hasn’t done anything to us yet.

“Moreover, according to the information I have inquired, Mr. Lucas came here for something else.

“Just now, Thomas and Vince Smith were both found dead in an upscale private hospital in DC, and the person who did it should be Mr. Lucas!”

The butler revealed all the information he had.

“What? You mean Thomas suddenly died? And it was Lucas who did it?” Michael asked in astonishment.

Since he was from one of the eight great families in DC, Michael naturally knew Thomas.

After all, back then, if Tyson didn’t have Charlie by his side to give him advice, the person who became the Smiths’ helmsman might have been Thomas.

Thomas was meticulous scheming, and many people found him difficult to deal with.

But Michael was surprised to learn that Thomas had suddenly died and that it had something to do with his son.

“Why did he do it?” Michael asked.

The butler explained, “Because you instructed me to pay more attention to Mr. Lucas’s situation, I know that quite a few unpleasant matters happened between him and the Smiths some time ago. This time, he must have come for the Smiths.

“Just this morning, Mr. Lucas went to the Smith residence in DC. But when he left soon after, the news of the deaths of Thomas and Vince surfaced immediately. So I guess that it should be because of some agreement between Mr. Lucas and Tyson Smith.”

The butler revealed all of his information and guesses, which were very reasonable and well-founded.

In fact, if Lucas was here, he would be able to recognize that the butler speaking was actually an old acquaintance.

When Lucas had just returned to Orange County from Calico, the person who had received him at the airport and tried to get him to take over the Hutton family and Stardust Corporation was Chad Kennedy.

Chad was highly valued by Michael.

After Michael heard Chad’s analysis, a dignified expression appeared on his face.

If this matter of the Smiths was really done by Lucas, it meant that Lucas was able to change the pattern of the two factions of the Smiths that had been fighting for years in just half a day, making the scales incline directly toward one party.

In fact, among the eight giants of DC, everyone could maintain such a stable situation now because each family had internal strife. There were all sorts of factional struggles.

If the Smiths’ infighting ended here, there was no doubt that the Smiths would become stronger and might even surpass the Huttons.

Coincidentally, the relationship between the Smiths and the Huttons was strained, and they even had frequent feuds.

In that case, was it a coincidence that Lucas helped Tyson take complete control of the Smiths, or was he targeting the Huttons?
