Herman’s arrogance and refusal to admit it was intolerable to many people.

Edmund sneered. “Walker, I know you’ve always been thick-skinned. But now that there’s video evidence in front of you, you’re still feigning ignorance. I really take my hat off to you for being so shameless!”

Damon chimed in with a contemptuous smirk, “Mr. Walker, you’ve gone to great lengths to protect your grandson, and you’ve really done a good job at lying through your teeth! We’re really inferior to you. I admit defeat!”

Bruce touched his goatee and shook his head while sighing. “Otherwise, how could the Walkers have become one of the three most powerful families in San Francisco? None of us can catch up to you in terms of your ability to twist facts!”

Ethan had misery all over his face as he said slowly, “Mr. Walker, you may be my elder, but I have to say, the video evidence is already in front of you. You can’t just undermine it with a single sentence. In my opinion, you should give the Watsons an explanation, shouldn’t you?”

“That’s right. Mr. Watson’s son can’t just die in vain, right? No matter what, the Watsons must be given an explanation today!”

“Yes, this matter can’t be swept under the carpet. We’re all parents, and we can understand how Mr. Watson feels!”

...

After the few of them spoke, several helmsmen of powerful families came forward and denounced Herman for his inappropriate behavior.

The statuses of these few families weren’t simple.

Although some helmsmen didn’t say anything, there was a clear look of disapproval and displeasure on their faces.

Herman’s face slowly became increasingly gloomy.

This meant that many people present didn’t approve of his behavior.

Seeing that the situation wasn’t in his favor, Nate hurriedly pleaded with Herman, “Grandpa, please save me quickly! I really didn’t do it!”

“Shut up!” Herman hollered at him in annoyance. “If you spout nonsense again, I’ll ignore you immediately!”

Nate instantly kept quiet. Based on Herman’s words, he knew that his grandfather wasn’t going to give him up!

Bruce narrowed his eyes. “Herman Walker, are you going to sweep the matter of your grandson killing Mr. Watson’s son under the carpet?”

“Who are you? This is a matter between the Walkers and the Watsons. Who are you to intervene?”Herman said with disdain.

“Mr. Walker, if you keep doing evil, you will court your own death one day! I don’t think your family has reached the point of being invincible, has it? Aren’t you going overboard?” Damon said coldly.

Herman glared at Damon and threatened, “The Parkers have just begun to climb up the ladder, yet you’re already so eager to challenge my family? Are you not afraid that the Parkers will vanish from LA in a few days?”

“You!”

Damon was furious. Just as he was about to say something, a cold voice interrupted him from the side.

“Forget it. Don’t bother talking nonsense with him.”

The person who spoke was none other than Lucas, who had been sitting quietly and calmly in his seat.

For a while, all eyes were on him.

At this critical moment when these top bigwigs were targeting each other, a young man actually interjected in such a nonchalant tone that even sounded somewhat commanding. It made many people bewildered.

They began to wonder who this young man they had never seen before was.

Herman glanced at Lucas, enraged by his condescending tone so much so that he burst into laughter. “Punk, who do you think you are? Do you have the right to interrupt us talking?”

Damon’s face immediately darkened, and he shouted at Herman, “Herman Walker, who are you to be disrespectful to Mr. Gray!”

Ethan also stood up and said austerely, “Mr. Walker, Mr. Gray isn’t someone you can shout at as you please!”

Bruce’s face turned cold as he warned, “Whoever dares to be rude to Mr. Gray like this again, the Hales won’t spare you!”

In an instant, the helmsmen of these three top-tier families all came forward to defend Lucas and even retorted against Herman. This scene left everyone present in disbelief.

“Who… who exactly is this young man? How come the helmsmen of these three great families are all defending him and even respectfully call him Mr. Gray?”

“It’s really strange. These people don’t even take Herman Walker and Lance Kingston seriously. Why are they being so polite and protective of this young man?”

“Does anyone know who this young man is?”

“I don’t know. I haven’t seen him before. Could he also be a big shot from one of the top families in DC?”

...

In just a moment, many people in the venue started speculating about Lucas’s identity.

However, Herman snorted coldly with a disdainful smile. “What Mr. Gray? This is hilarious!”

If Vince hadn’t told him Lucas’s details beforehand, he would have probably been surprised by the scene in front of him and really thought that Lucas was a big shot from some big family in DC!

However, Vince had already told him before that Lucas was just a good-for-nothing who had been expelled from the family by the Huttons many years ago. Thus, there was no need to care about him. He only felt that the helmsmen in front of him were fools for thinking that Lucas was some great big shot and putting him on a pedestal.

“Haha, isn’t he just a good-for-nothing kicked out of his family years ago? You people are pitifully shallow. Trust you to be the helmsmen of top families!

“In terms of family power, Mr. Vince Smith has a much higher status than this punk. He’s the future successor of the Smiths, one of the eight top families in DC. Why aren’t you showing him the same amount of respect? A bunch of idiots!”

Herman didn’t take Lucas seriously at all, and he even praised and sucked up to Vince.

Vince sat on the master seat and leisurely took a sip of tea, looking relaxed and comfortable.

It seemed that it wouldn’t be long before it was his turn to appear.

At this moment, Nate looked at Lucas, whom the helmsmen of several powerful families were defending, and felt extremely shocked and jealous.

But a bright light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought of something that he had ignored for a long time.

“I know! I know who killed Dallas Watson!” He shouted, looking extremely shocked.

“Who?” Herman immediately asked.

“It’s him! The murderer of Dallas is Lucas Gray!” He pointed straight at Lucas!
