After a while, the two subordinates who went out to check the situation returned.
Unexpectedly, with them ca Aidan Lucas.
"Aidan Lucas, you’re actually coming back?" Seeing Aidan Lucas, Evelyn Bright and Robbie Bright were obviously surprised.
They had already believed Lily’s words, thinking Aidan Lucas would take the chance to leave.
"Mr. Bright, we saw him outside, and he said he wanted to co in to negotiate terms." The two thugs pushed Aidan Lucas forward and shrank into the corner themselves.
Evelyn Bright and Robbie Bright’s attention was focused on Aidan Lucas, only Lily slightly furrowed her brow, scanning over the two thugs.
Their physiques seed slightly taller than the two who went out earlier.
If you don’t look at the faces, just the body shapes... Lily squinted her eyes, recognizing one of them appeared to be Sebastian Lucas VII.
Instantly, she thought of Monica, who excelled at disguise and makeup.
Her almond eyes glead montarily, quickly masking her brilliance.
At this mont, she finally felt a relief.
It seed that after Aidan Lucas went out, he didn’t co back, calculating that Evelyn Bright and the others would beco suspicious about the outside situation.
And who knew, it was such a coincidence that Evelyn Bright would deliberately provoke her.
It happened to unwittingly increase their inner panic, causing them to send people out to investigate the outside situation.
As a result...
Lily silently counted the situation inside the room, one, two, three, four...
Apart from Evelyn Bright and Robbie Bright, there were seven others guarding around.
Two of them had been replaced by Aidan Lucas’s n.
That ant the situation in the room was four against seven.
Judging by Mr. Lucas and Sebastian Lucas VII’s skills, as long as she didn’t drag behind, dealing with these seven people wouldn’t be difficult.
However...
"Aidan Lucas, I couldn’t tell you are indeed devoted to Lily Redington; why, do you want to save her that much?"
Seeing Mr. Lucas willing to risk himself again for Lily, Evelyn Bright’s jealousy completely roiled up.
Unwillingly, she pressed a gun to Lily’s temple, squinting her slender, alluring eyes, threatening: "You’ve already mortgaged all your wealth to . To save this woman, what are you prepared to give in exchange?"
Evelyn Bright’s jealousy and greed far exceeded Lily’s expectations.
At this point, she wasn’t securing her retreat by Lily’s safety; instead, she suddenly beca aggressive and wanted more.
Aidan Lucas slightly narrowed his cold eyes, speaking deeply: "Aside from the Royal Palace, I can only offer the position of head of the Lucas family. But that position isn’t sothing I can give for you to take."
Aidan Lucas was truthful; Uncle is still here, not to ntion other heads of the Lucas family.
For soone like Evelyn Bright to want to take the head of the family’s place was simply a fantasy.
"Hmph, the head of the Lucas family, I’m not interested." She was clearly being insincere.
Although she wanted it, she understood that the position wasn’t easy to attain.
Moreover, now, compared to the head of the family, what she wanted more was Aidan Lucas the man.
Evelyn Bright had Robbie Bright keep a close watch on Lily Redington while she herself put down the gun and walked step by step toward Aidan Lucas.
"Now, I want you more."
Her fingers painted in bright red traced Aidan Lucas’s stark features.
Evelyn Bright leaned closer, breathing softly: "Aidan Lucas, I’m suddenly very interested in you. Brother... in a way, you are my brother..."
