Chapter 660: Another Refusal

Like Bruce, Damon was also surprised to receive a sudden call from Clement.

“So it’s you, Mr. Cole. What’s the matter?” Damon’s tone was extremely calm and indifferent.

Currently, the Parkers had already become the largest and supreme family in the whole of LA with Lucas’s help. They had even taken over many businesses, so their overall power and strength were on par with the three giants of San Francisco—the Coles, the Kingstons, and the Walkers.

From a certain perspective, Damon’s current status was actually comparable to Edmund’s, while Clement was just a junior. Thus, Damon didn’t need to have any scruples and respect for him.

Clement was aware of this too, so he spoke much more politely in front of Damon.

“Mr. Parker, here’s the thing. I have something to ask of you,” Clement said politely.

“Haha, Mr. Cole, you must be joking. You are a member of the Cole family. If there’s anything, you can just say so directly. If I can provide any help, I will definitely help.” Damon chuckled.

He had dealt with Clement twice before. But on those two occasions, Clement had behaved haughtily and ordered Damon around without any respect even though Damon was as old as his father.

Clement’s polite attitude today was a stark contrast to before.

Damon felt proud because of this.

But Damon was well aware that all of this was given to him by Lucas. Otherwise, the Parkers would still be competing against other families in LA today, and Clement wouldn’t be taking him seriously at all.

“Okay, since you’re so straightforward, I’ll cut to the chase. Mr. Parker, I hope that the Parkers will sever all ties with Lucas Gray and not provide him with any help in the future!” Clement said.

“What?!” Damon rubbed his ears, wondering if he heard wrong.

“Mr. Cole, what did you just say? Who do you want the Parkers to sever ties with?” Damon asked again with his brows furrowed.

“Lucas Gray, that penniless orphan who managed to climb his way up after marrying Cheyenne Carter as a live-in husband. You should know him right, Mr. Parker?” Edmund asked through gritted teeth.

Damon frowned, the furrow between his brows so deep that a fly would be clamped to death between them. He corrected in a strange tone, “Mr. Gray isn’t an orphan. He’s a Hutton from DC.”

Clement snorted with laughter. “How is he considered a Hutton? According to my information, he was disowned and kicked out by the Huttons twenty years ago, and the Huttons don’t even acknowledge him! Mr. Parker, you’ve probably been deceived by him.

“But that’s understandable. Lucas is very cunning, and he’s really good at leveraging on the power of others. It’s no wonder that he’s still doing well now.

“But this young man is way too arrogant and conceited. Relying on the power he borrowed, he goes around causing trouble everywhere. Not only has he offended the Taylors and the Wallaces of the four top families in Orange County, but he even had the guts to go to the Kingston residence to cause trouble. In the end, the Kingstons spared him only because of the power of the Parkers and the Coles.

“He’s just a nobody wreaking havoc everywhere. I don’t think there’s a need for you to befriend him, right, Mr. Parker?”

Due to his dissatisfaction with Lucas, Clement made Lucas sound incorrigible and even belittled him greatly.

But every time Clement belittled Lucas, Damon’s face became even darker. Toward the end, he looked absolutely gloomy.

“Mr. Cole, so you want the Parkers to sever all ties with Lucas Gray?” Damon said through clenched teeth.

But Clement failed to notice the suppressed burning fury in Damon’s tone, and he even thought that Damon was seriously considering his suggestion. He quickly said, “That’s right! To be honest, my family and I are already extremely dissatisfied with that punk Lucas Gray. Yet he’s still behaving arrogantly by relying on these relations. So I really hope that your family can sever ties with him and teach him a good lesson!

“Also, I won’t let the Parkers play the bad guy for nothing. In the future, as long as the Parkers need help, the Coles will definitely support you! If you intend to develop in San Francisco, the Coles can also serve as a solid backer for your family!” Clement once again offered a tempting condition.

The caller on the other end stayed silent for two seconds before Damon suddenly roared furiously, “Clement Cole, is there something wrong with you? Who are you to decide who the Parkers befriend?

“Don’t think that everyone is as stupid as you! You’re not qualified to judge what kind of a person Mr. Gray is! Let me tell you, Mr. Gray is the most honored guest of our family. Even if the Coles fall out with us, I will definitely not agree to sever ties with Mr. Gray. Do you understand?”

After lashing out at Clement, Damon immediately hung up without giving Clement the chance to respond.

“…” Holding his phone tightly in hand, Clement stood dumbfounded in place without reacting for a long time.

Damon’s words were still ringing in his ears.

As the only son of Edmund, the head of the Cole family, it had been a long time since Clement got reprimanded badly and had someone hang up on him.

If it was someone else, Clement would have used the power of the Coles to kill them.

But since he was facing Damon, the helmsman of the Parkers, who had recently risen in strength and was almost on par with the Coles, Clement had no choice but to bear with it.

If this matter spread to his father’s ears, he would probably say that Damon had done a good job reprimanding him. He might even force him to apologize to Damon.

Thus, he could only grit his teeth and tolerate it for now.

But Damon’s attitude clearly showed that the Parkers would rather go to war with the Coles than sever ties with Lucas.

“Damn it! What the hell is this?

“Lucas Gray is just an abandoned son of the Huttons. He doesn’t have any family protection and is merely a live-in son-in-law. Why are these two old fogies acting so strangely and going all out to defend him?

“Do I really have to watch that punk act all arrogant in front of me while being unable to do anything to him? Damn it!”

Clement was so furious that he started cursing before slamming his phone onto the floor.

Smack!

The screen of the latest Apple iPhone instantly cracked.

At this moment, Bruce and Damon were telling Lucas about Clement’s phone calls to them..
