1394 The Final Chapter of Happiness
Jordan showed little surprise at the incoming call. He had long been aware of Lucas's immense power. Overcoming the mere Williams family was effortless for him.
Thanks to all readers!
“Got it, Lucas! I’ll send people over right away!”
Jordan excelled at swift action. In no time, he dispatched teams to the Williams’ estate and operations to seize complete control. Any dissenting Williams remnants faced direct elimination, while the others were folded into Lucas’s forces.
Thus, among DC's eight premier families, the Howards’ Pete and the Huttons’ Roman—steadfast Lucas followers—reclaimed their dominance from Samuel and Jace, staying true to him.
Samuel, who snatched control in that crucial juncture, got Florence’s nod before a swift death sentence for treason.
!!
Since Jace was Michael’s sole son, Lucas granted him mercy but banished him from DC permanently, barring any return.
Barring unforeseen events, Jace would stay out of Lucas’s path forever.
For the Smiths, Tyson and son Oscar remained firmly on Lucas’s side. Post-Williams collapse, Lucas handed them part of the spoils, elevating the Smiths higher than ever.
After Piers helmsman Derek fell to Rayson’s sudden gunfire, the family plunged into chaos and lost all will to defy Lucas. They promptly bundled assets, dumped DC holdings, and evacuated entirely.
So, the Piers vanished fully from DC's eight top families.
That night, Rayson perished, and word of the Williams assets’ total handover exploded across the capital.
Arnaults helmsman Jeffrey, learning of Rayson’s death while Lucas seized every Williams asset and mysteriously compelled Bradley’s overnight DC flight, abandoned all defiance in utter astonishment. He merely reeled in shock.
Jeffrey dropped plans to resist Lucas instantly. He felt profound relief for dubbing Lucas his brother as a safeguard.
At worst, their bond hadn’t shattered completely. Moving ahead, with humble conduct and open brotherly respect, Jeffrey was sure Lucas wouldn’t target him.
Bransons helmsman Eric, hearing Lucas toppled the Williams, hurried to Jeffrey that night for urgent talks.
Whatever Jeffrey advised remains unknown, but Eric returned issuing strict orders for restraint—no slights against Lucas or his allies. The Bransons turned deeply subdued, scarcely emerging.
Steeles helmsman Greg paled sharply upon Lucas’s deeds. He’d witnessed Lucas’s might up close and knew the Steeles couldn’t challenge him now.
Moreover, the Steeles had gravely wronged Lucas lately. One misstep, and they might evaporate from DC like the Williams overnight…
Trembling in dread, Greg abruptly recalled his overlooked grandson Alexander. He noted Alexander and Ashley’s tight ties to Lucas, even working at Stardust Corporation under him.
“Hurry and call Alexander to rush back home now! He’s my pick for next Steeles helmsman. The moment he arrives, summon a family assembly to formally transfer the role to him!” Greg ordered his butler.
He’d resolved to cede helmsman duties to Alexander. Surely, Lucas would overlook the Steeles for his sake and leave them be.
Now, DC's eight top families lay ruined or dispersed in parts. Survivors either allied with Lucas or bowed politely, too scared to cross him.
Lucas himself never took the DC King mantle, but all acknowledged him as the shadow ruler of DC.
No one in DC dared provoke Lucas.
Once DC factions settled into quiet, Lucas kept busy.
The Dark Dragon Regiment, which Jordan assembled on his orders, had gathered ample recruits. Within months, it produced hordes of elites, greatly amplifying Lucas’s power.
At present, the sheer power of the Dark Dragon Regiment could overwhelm any single one of DC's former eight top families, even without Lucas getting involved. They possessed the strength to confront branches of the royal family as well.
With that, Lucas at last secured the serene life he had long yearned for.
It was the weekend today. Right at dawn, Lucas took Cheyenne and Amelia to the Blue Ridge Mountains near DC for a delightful outing.
“Wow, Daddy, this mountain is gorgeous! So many flowers and butterflies everywhere! The air up here feels incredibly fresh, just like my kindergarten teacher described!”
Dressed in a lovely pink princess gown with two adorable braids atop her head, Amelia resembled a charming little fairy scampering across the mountain peak. She held a small bunch of freshly gathered wildflowers, her delicate pale cheeks glowing rosy with delight.
“Amelia, don't run so wildly! Watch out or you'll tumble down the slope! If that happens, Mommy and Daddy can't rescue you.” Cheyenne rested on the picnic blanket Lucas had set out. She beamed at her energetic cute daughter, her gaze brimming with tender affection.
“Mommy, you're a girl, so you surely can't save me. But Daddy's our hero and knight. If you and I face danger, Daddy will rescue us for sure! Right, Daddy?”
Amelia dashed over to Lucas and chuckled while tucking a few picked flowers into his hair.
Amused yet helpless, Lucas lifted his prankster daughter and grinned. “Amelia, you're spot on. Daddy is your knight and Mommy's too. I'll shield you both forever. I'll never allow any harm to touch you. I'll make sure you're the happiest people alive!”
He planted a kiss on his daughter's soft cheek before turning to Cheyenne nearby, his expression and eyes overflowing with gentle love.
“Honey, you… Saying that in front of our daughter? Really…” Cheyenne's captivating face gradually flushed with a shy pink hue. Yet a slender pale hand had already softly clasped Lucas's, then gripped it firmly, reluctant to release.
Lucas grinned and drew his wife and daughter into a warm embrace. He gazed at the sun rising far away, his heart swelling with bliss.
Morning sunlight bathed the trio locked in their hug.
It radiated brightness, warmth, and boundless love with hope.
No matter what trials or perils lay ahead in their lives, with their family united, they would face everything fearlessly, stay hopeful, and remain joyful.
In life, isn't such tranquility and cherished happiness the greatest desire for everyone?
The End.
