<h4>Chapter 283: Chapter 283: Go Straightforward</h4>


    Lucas Hughes couldn’t believe it; Gabrie Dyer actually made such a request.


    Clearly, Gabrie Dyer is Alexander Johnson’s mother, so why would she do this?


    "What? Is there a problem?"


    Gabrie Dyer’s face turned cold after hearing Lucas Hughes’ words.


    A mere underling, living at the bottom and relying on him for a living, dared to question her?


    "No, Mrs. Johnson, I just find it surprising. I didn’t expect you to treat your own son like this. But, I assure you, I really haven’t thought much of it otherwise."


    Lucas Hughes quickly exined, considering that Gabrie Dyer was his financial backer, he certainly didn’t dare to offend her.


    Gabrie always looked down on people like Lucas, didn’t want to say much, but when she heard him mention her son.


    Gabrie further exined a few words: "Dr. Hughes, it’s because I love my son that I do this. You must know that she’s recently engaged."


    "But he’s been having serious issues with the Wilson Family’s eldest daughtertely, and I know my son very well. He hasn’t been with a woman for so many years. I’m really worried about this, so I want topletely cure his illness before he gets married."


    "I hope you can understand a mother’s heart; there’s no mother in the world who doesn’t love her son. If it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t have troubled myself to find you and send Chloe Simpson to my son before."


    After all, she had maintained the good mother persona for so many years, never letting her guard down, publicly or privately.


    "Yes, of course, I understand. I know my mom loves me very much too."


    Lucas Hughes listened, regardless of whether it was genuine or not, and immediately went along with her.


    After all, the one with money is the boss, so he naturally had to appease Gabrie.


    Moreover, he had just bragged to Chloe about leaving Kyohai.


    Some things could be dyed a day, two days, three days, but not ten days or half a month.


    So, since Gabrie said so, he could kill two birds with one stone.


    By doing so, he could get Gabrie’s money, and also have a better reason to dy things. Why not?


    Besides, he had already done this kind of thing many times before, easy as pie.


    Just as well, he could strengthen himself for another round with his number two next time.


    After all, Alexander Johnson had crushed him once again.


    This is also Alexander Johnson’s debt to him, so shouldn’t it be repaid?


    Get it done!


    After hanging up Gabrie’s call, Lucas called Chloe back.


    [What? Chloe, he didn’t ask me toe over. Alexander Johnson would never call me over, so what should we do next? No, let’s leave tonight.]


    [Tonight? Isn’t that too rushed? By the way, what about my mom and your parents?]


    Chloe hesitated upon hearing Lucas say tonight and suddenly thought of both their parents.


    [Don’t worry, I will arrange everything. We’ll go first, and once we’re stable, we’lle back for them. As for the hospital, I’ll just take a leave, and you should too.]


    [This way, we can stall Alexander for a few days. Once we’ve settled and left, we can bring our parents over, and there’ll be no issues.]


    Lucas, seeing Chloe waver, began to persuade her with every word.


    [Will this work? Lucas, I think this is too risky. Leaving our parents here, Alexander Johnson might do something unpredictable.]


    Chloe didn’t think this n was feasible. Considering someone like Alexander, it would be easy for him to find out anything in Kyohai at the snap of a finger.


    And as for their parents, Alexander could also handle them in a sh.


    [Chloe, trust me, I’ve really arranged everything. Just trust me this once, okay? Yes, Alexander is the Young Master of the Capital Circle with power and influence, but no matter how much power the Johnson Family has, they still care about public opinion, right?]


    [However, if I release this news, it might damage your reputation. But, I really can’t think of a better solution other than this.]


    [Chloe, I promise, as long as Alexander dares to act, I will definitely pressure him through public opinion. By then, we’ll be able to buy some time. I’ll also stabilize things as soon as possible and bring over our parents.]


    Lucas had plenty of incriminating videos of Alexander and Chloe in his possession.


    He actually didn’t need to release them, just show them to Alexander.


    Alexander would be cautious, considering how much he cared about Chloe.


    Lucas had long nned, as long as Chloe left with him tonight, he would drug her.


    By then, he would inform Gabrie’s men to pass on the information to Alexander’s side.


    Oh, and he needed to record the video.


    He had to find a very convenient, pre-arranged ce.


    After thinking it through, Lucas decided on their marital residence with Chloe.


    After all, it was his own marital home, the safest and most thrilling for him.


    Who knows, this time, his number two might just get excited enough.
