CHAPTER 310

Lucas hummed a response and patted Grayson on his shoulder. "You're being sarcastic now! That's some improvement!"

Hearing that, Grayson didn't know what to say. Was that even sarcastic? He was really exhausted and didn't want to talk anymore.

When Ann saw that Lucas was talking as though nobody else was around without even sparing a glance at her, she couldn't help but say, "Lucas, why don't you talk to me? I'm your big sister!"

Lucas then looked at her sluggishly. "I only have three big brothers and no big sisters. Please don't try to make connections with me."

"Why are you talking to me like that, Lucas?" she said unhappily. "We've been growing up together since we were young. Is it really that simple to forget our twenty-plus-year relationship? Are you such a heartless person?" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

"Is there a problem?" He raised his brows and looked at her. "Didn't I make myself clear? Whoever plots against my brother will be my enemy forever! Also, who has a twenty-plus-year relationship with you? Even though I don't remember much about my younger days, ever since I can remember, I've always disliked you. There's no such thing as a relationship between us, okay?"

"You… You…" Ann was so angry that her body started to tremble.

"Well, if you have forgotten, let me tell you again!" Lucas looked into her eyes and spoke word by word. "Whoever hurts Sebastian will be my lifelong enemy! I'm not taking revenge on you just for Father's sake. If you still dare to do anything to Sebastian, I don't care what status you have—I'll make sure you

know what better death than alive feels like!"

His gaze was sharp, and there was a hint of coldness to it. It was nothing like his usually cheerful and indecent look.

At this moment, Ann was feeling the chill in her back from his gaze. She then defended herself, saying, "How did I hurt Sebatian? I've never hurt him. Everything I've done is out of love. There's no other person in this world who loves him more than I do!"

"Everything that you've done to him is only because you love the guy?" Lucas looked up and laughed as though he had heard the funniest joke in the world. Then, he kept his gaze and looked at her. "Ann Evans, do you know what love is? If your feeling for Sebastian is called love, the beggar on the street loves you too. He wants to marry you, so he drugs you and rapes you. Then, he'll threaten you to marry him. Would you be willing to do that?"

"What are you talking about?" Her face was turning blue from the anger. "How can you compare me with a beggar on the street?"

"Why not?" He raised his brows. "Father and Sebastian gave you everything you had. In my eyes, you're worse than a beggar! At least everything that the beggar owns is his, and he doesn't owe anyone anything. What about you, though? You owe Father and Sebastian, but you still plotted against him! You're just ungrateful! In fact, you're worse than a beggar on the street!"

"Lucas Hart! Are you out of your mind?! I-I was just temporarily blinded and did the wrong thing. It's not as serious as you put it!" She trembled with anger and bellowed, "I just drugged Sebastian with a drug that wouldn't cause any harm to him. How can you criticize me this way? Have I offended you in the

past that you're using this to belittle me?"

"Not serious?" He scoffed. "In my eyes, everything related to Sebastian is serious! Only a heartless ingrate like you will take harming Sebastian as nothing!"

Hearing that, Ann was so angry that her lips quivered. She still wanted to say something, but Grayson stopped her just then. "Enough. Stop it already."

Lucas rolled his eyes at Ann and snorted before telling Grayson, "Do you think I want to argue with her? If you weren't so foolish as to bring her home, do you think she'd have the chance to argue with me?"

"How did you know that I'd bring her home?" Grayson asked. He hadn't told anyone about this since he knew that Sebastian and his two younger brothers disliked her.

"Sebastian guessed it." Lucas snorted again. "Do you think you can hide what you want to do from him?"

At this moment, Grayson didn't know what to say anymore.

"Whatever. I have nothing to say to someone like you who wants to learn the hard way." Lucas waved his hand. "Madeline's wedding dress is ready, and Sebastian asked me to help him send it to her. I'm very busy, so I can't waste time with a stubborn person like you anymore. Bye!"

He then turned around to look at Birch and Winter. "Birch, Winter, take good care of Young Master Grayson. His virginity will be under your protection! Do you understand?"

Birch and Winter nodded. "Yes, Young Master Lucas. We'll make sure to complete the mission!"

At this moment, Ann's face was as pale as a ghost, and she felt pins and needles on her head as though her brain was going to explode. Protect Grayson's virginity? What does that mean? Are they saying that I will take advantage of Grayson? H-How can they humiliate me like this? "What are you talking about?" Her face was turning blue from the anger. "How can you compare me with a beggar on the street?"

She was so mad that she wanted to tear Lucas apart. "What are you trying to say, Lucas? I'm your sister who grew up with you since you were young. How can you humiliate me like this? H-How can you be this heartless?"

"Why? Am I not stating the truth?" Lucas raised his brows and looked at her. "Instead of going back to your own house, you insisted on following Grayson here. Is it not because you have your eyes on him and want to marry him?"

"I…" Ann choked on her own words and didn't know what to say at this time.

She took Grayson as her last resort and her last leverage. Of course, she would grab tightly onto him. In fact, she was indeed thinking about marrying him, but now that Lucas had exposed her plans, she had no way to back down.

If she denied this, she would need to eat her own words in the future. By then, Lucas would humiliate her even more. However, if she admitted to that…

No! Whatever happens next, I'll deal with it when the time comes. I need to deny it now!

Otherwise, Grayson would suspect her. If he became guarded against her, it would influence her future plans.

At this thought, she grinded her teeth and said, "Of course not! Grayson is my little brother whom I trust the most! I'm just too upset that my mother doesn't care about me anymore, and I don't want to go home alone. That's why I followed Grayson home!"

"Oh, is that so?" Lucas raised his brows and looked at her while his lips quirked into a half-smile. He then swayed the phone in his hand. "I've recorded everything you said just now. Always remember what you just said and stay away from Grayson. Don't eat your own words!"

Ann was completely enraged. "You…"

in disdain and laughed. He didn't bother her anymore and said to Grayson, "Be careful, Grayson. Don't be deceived so foolishly. I need to send the wedding dress to Madeline for Sebastian already, and I can't help you anymore. Take care!"

Hearing that, she nearly vomited blood from the anger. He's definitely repeating it on purpose!

Back then, she treated Lucas nicer than how she treated her own biological brother. Now that she had become shabby, he immediately turned against her so heartlessly. Gender doesn't matter when it comes to *ssholes. Lucas and Madeline are both *ssholes!
