Chapter 158 Changing!Chapter 158 Changing!
"Brother-in-law..." Mason opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Lachlan's direct question. "Tell
me, where are you?"
After hesitating for a moment, Mason finally spoke in a deep voice. "Gold Coast Club."
"Okay, I'll be there right away! Make sure you stay safe until I arrive," Lachlan instructed.
"I understand," Mason replied with a bitter smile.
At this moment, Miranda approached them with a worried expression. She and Mason were close
siblings and she became anxious as soon as he got into trouble.
"Don't worry, I'll take you home first and then go check on him," Lachlan reassured her.
"I'm going too!" Miranda exclaimed urgently.
Hearing this, Lachlan's expression turned serious. "What can you do if you go? You'll only make
things worse. This is men's business."
He then grabbed Miranda's hand and said firmly, "Trust me, I won't let your brother get hurt."
Miranda's expression changed several times before nodding in agreement, "Okay! I trust you."
Miranda was a woman who could see the big picture and knew that even if she was worried sick
about her brother it wouldn't help the situation at all. Going along would only make things more
complicated for Lachlan and her brother.
Lachlan hailed a cab after dropping off Miranda at home and rushed to Gold Coast Club...On the other side of town...
Erik accompanied Gabriela (Erik's wife) on an evening stroll after dinner while Caelan and Reeva
joined them too.
After receiving treatment from Lachlan last time in Edoland, they decided to temporarily stay at the
Ward family's estate instead of traveling back-and-forth between Edoland and Iylonio.
"Lachlan didn't give any face to your people?" Erik asked Henry with furrowed brows after hearing
about today's events.
"You bet he didn't! He knew Braid belonged to me yet still crippled him completely!" Henry said
indignantly.
"Lachlan wouldn't have done something like that without reason though? Your man must have really
provoked him," Reeva speculated beside them.
"No matter what happened, his actions were too ugly!" Henry said coldly.
Erik remained silent, his face darkening slightly. Just then, Rowan walked over and answered a
phone call. After hanging up, he had a smug look on his face.
"Young Master, there's big trouble with Mason," he said.
"Oh?" Henry responded. "What happened?"
He knew that Mason's power had been unstable lately.
"Today, everything went chaotic in Mason's territory! His own people are fighting against each other!
The Lowe family experts under Mason have all turned against him. They're either sweeping throughMason's territory with their own men or attacking his stronghold under the leadership of the Lowe
family second-in-command! Hehe... I bet Mr. Lowe won't be around on Edoland after tonight!"
Rowan sneered as he spoke.
Hearing this news made Henry laugh too. "What an interesting show! Without the Lowe family, he's
nothing but a nobody to us!"
Henry and Mason had been fighting for many years now - it was a kind of hidden hostility between
them both.
However, during the last time they divided up Tiger's remaining forces together due to Lachlan's
intervention, they were able to pass by peacefully without any conflict arising between them both.
Now that he heard about an internal fight within Mason's organization though - Henry couldn't help
but feel pleased at this turn of events!
"I don't think so!" Reeva suddenly piped up with disdain in her voice.
noveldramaHearing her speak out like this caused both Henry and Rowan to look at her skeptically.
"You mean Lachlan? Reeva, you overestimate him too much! What can one person do in such
chaos?" Henry chuckled lightly and shook his head.
"That's right Miss Bates, Lachlan alone can't change anything." Rowan added scornfully as well.
Because of what happened with Braid man, both Henry and Rowan held some resentment towards
Lachlan deep down inside themselves.
"If he could single-handedly kill all those so-called experts from the Lowe family, then do you really
think he wouldn't be able to change anything?" Reeva asked seriously instead though.Hearing this made Henry burst out laughing involuntarily, "Reeva, what are you talking about? How
is it possible for one person alone to take down all those experts from the Lowe family?"
Rowan shook her head. "Unless Lachlan can convince Eduard to help him, he won't be able to
make a dent in this underground force. But how could Eduard get involved in a fight like this?"
Last time Lachlan went to Ranlins Manor, Eduard kept everything under wraps. Henry and even
Erik didn't know the details of what happened, so they had no idea about Lachlan's true strength.
"Really? Want to bet on it?" Reeva said confidently. "The underground world of Edoland isn't going
to change overnight. Mr. Lowe will still be Mr. Lowe after tonight."
While others scoffed at the idea of one person making a difference, Reeva had faith in Lachlan's
abilities.
If there was an expert present, they would be shocked by Reeva's power - she had reached the
Dark Force stage after only recently developing her "Energy Sense" when she first arrived in
Edoland with Caelan.
It was incredible progress for such a short amount of time and all thanks to the "Fierce Phoenix
Heart Sutra" that Lachlan gave her - an incredibly powerful technique that defied logic.
Reeva couldn't imagine how strong Lachlan must be if he could casually give away such an
amazing technique as his own practice method.
Caelan smiled at his granddaughter and nodded approvingly before surprising everyone with his
confidence in Lachlan too.
Erik and Gabriela looked surprised while Henry and Rowan were completely puzzled by why
Caelan and Reeva were so confident about him."Alright then," Erik said cheerfully, "let's wait and see! Will Edoland's underground world change or
will someone turn things around tonight?"
He turned towards Henry next, "Henry, take your team over to Gold Coast Club but play it by ear! If
you run into Mason or even better yet - if you find out that Lachlan is there too - lend them a hand."
"No matter what, Lachlan saved my life!"
Henry's face showed a hint of displeasure at the words.
"Grandpa, how many times have we helped him? You gave him money and even connected him
with pharmaceutical distributors. I also did him a big favor at the last business exchange meeting!
But he didn't give me any face!"
"Fine, he saved your life. I can help him tonight depending on the situation. But this time, I won't
help for free again!"
