Chapter 870 - Lockhart’s Advice
Luke glared at Leonard ferociously, his expression turned frightening.
He stepped forward and grabbed Leonard's shirt collar with both hands. "You didn't say that last night. Leonard, if you dare mess with me… believe it or not I'll make sure you die in the most brutal way possible."
In this situation, Leonard calmly stared at his shirt, and the next second he reached out to pinch Luke's wrist, twist it effortlessly, and then free it. "Of course I don't believe it!"
"Fuck! What did you do to my brother!?"
At this moment, Lyle, who was still frolicking in the courtyard, saw this scene and hurriedly defended Leonard.
He moved fast as he approached and kicked Luke's leg with his leg. "Aren't you shameless? Do you think you can do anything to my brother? Don't think I'll thank you after you drop the lawsuit, then you can hurt my brother as you wish! Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"
Luke was kicked by Lyle and he could only retreat before setting his pace.
His teeth clenched, his eyes tightly glued on the two brothers. After a while, he burst out laughing. "Alright, Leonard… I see that you've done well. However, don't brag just yet. If you still dare to play with me like this, just watch the consequences. Your future will be full of blood!"
Luke glared at Lyle viciously, then got into his car.
As the car left, Leonard's eyes were serious.
After this, the battle between him and Luke might just officially begin.
At this moment, Lyle stood on the spot and cursed at the car for a while. After the car left, he looked back at Leonard.
Seeing his clothes crumpled a bit, Lyle stepped forward to tidy up his clothes, and said flatly, "Brother, I know you are the one who helped me out. Your kindness will always be in my heart!"
After speaking, Lyle lowered his head seriously.
Upon seeing this, Leonard glanced at him blankly. "Stop talking nonsense, go and show yourself to mom and dad. We're really worried about you these past few days."
"Okay, I'll go now!" Lyle left Leonard's villa after boarding the caddy.
...
On the other hand, Luke came to his father's study furiously as soon as he returned to the building where his family lived.
He had lost his mind, and when he opened the door, he saw his father Lockhart covering the receiver of his cell phone, his eyes glaring at him. "What are you doing? Get out!"
Every word Luke wanted to say, he immediately swallowed back.
His chest heaved up and down violently, his hands clenched tightly to his sides. "Father, I have something urgent to say!"
Lockhart calmed down, but still waved his hand very seriously. "Go to the corridor and wait for me. I'm still on the phone, don't bother me!"
Luke frowned and turned around unhurriedly.
In the study, Lockhart waited a few seconds before putting the phone back to his ear, and his attitude suddenly turned very flattering. "Sorry sir, something just happened!"
On the other end of the phone, a lazy voice came slowly. "Since you have something to deal with, then I don't want to bother you!"
"It's okay, Sir. There's no need to worry. It is an honor for the Adler family to be able to work with you. I will give my answer as soon as possible after reviewing our cooperation contract."
The person was silent for a few seconds, his voice slightly pleased. "Then, I will wait for the good news from the Adler family!"
"No problem!"
A second before hanging up, the person suddenly changed the subject. "I heard that the Adlers have recruited a lot of maids recently?"
Lockhart looked confused, but still answered honestly. "This… I don't know much, it's all arranged by the family's internal service. Is there a problem?"
"Hey!" The man sneered. "No problem, I heard that the training of the maids from the Adler family is very strict. On the contrary, the servants in my family are very careless when it comes to things and it makes me very dizzy. If I have the chance to set foot in Bandung in the future, I also want to see how the Adler family disciplines their servants firsthand."
Lockhart didn't hesitate, he smiled wholeheartedly. "In that case, if you don't mind, how about I pick some old servants from my family home and send them to you?"
That person rejected his kindness and said meaningfully, "There's no need. We'll eventually meet sooner or later, so there's no need to bother!"
Lockhart didn't understand this sentence.
As he tried to suppress the question in his heart, he heard that the other party had hung up.
Lockhart stared at his cell phone for a few seconds. Was the Adler family's strict training really the talk?
He didn't understand the reason, so he just left it be.
As long as he had the necessary support behind him, he wouldn't be afraid to beat Leonhart and his son!
Not long after, Lockhart got up and opened the door. He raised his eyes and saw Luke standing on the side of the corridor. It was clear his son's face was troubled.
He sighed. "What made you forget the rules? I've always said that if it's not important, don't come into my study."
At this time, Luke was fiddling with his hair in annoyance "Dad, of course I know the rules. Since the matter was urgent, I immediately came to your study."
"What's the matter? Come in and talk!" Lockhart opened the door and Luke came in. Before they could sit down casually, he heard his son speak angrily.
"Dad, we were being toyed with by Leonard! He had absolutely nothing to do with our stuff at the port. I asked him to sort things out, but he said he didn't understand anything from the start, we were completely fooled by him!"
Hearing Luke's angry words, Lockhart shook his head. He took out a cigar from the drawer.
He put the cigar in his palm and spun it around, then reached out to Luke and nodded in the air. "You're too impatient when something happens, how many times have I told you that, why can't you remember it?"
"Didn't I remind you last night? Leonard was probably just suspicious of the cargo in our container. I'm sure he couldn't really understand the story in it. It's your own fault you're immediately nervous and confused, no wonder he beat you!"
Luke frowned and looked at Lockhart, these words of his father made him hate Leonard even more in his heart.
If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have fallen into such a dilemma.
If others saw this, of course he would be the clown, and might even lose all his imports.
Lockhart was surprised to see his son getting angrier, he then pointed to the sofa.
"Sit and calm down! Luke, after several months of fighting with Leonard, have you not seen it yet? That fellow completely inherited his father's evil and scheming blood. And in terms of scheming, I am worried that you are not his match at this stage. How can you compete with him with your unstable temper?"
Luke was still angry, but his heart was very anxious. "Then, should I forget about this incident?"
Lockhart took a bite of his cigar, then spoke with a serious look.
"Of course we can't just forget about it! But this incident... We'd better leave it alone because we were at fault. As for the future, they better not think they still got so much luck! However, you must also remember Lyle's potential.. You better keep your distance from him."
