    Chapter 248 A Fearsome Presence


    “I heard you called the young man of the Johnson family?”


    “Yes,” Jimmy replied vaguely. “You know that this is not in our territory. In Seaxas, we have to show


    some respect to the Johnson family.”


    Upon hearing this, Davids’s indifferent eyes moved.

    But only for a moment.


    At this moment, Lucas was led into their booth by the manager.


    Lucas’s gaze swept past Jimmy and Landon before finallynding on David.


    He narrowed his eyes, and aplicated expression shed across the depths of his eyes.


    None of the three people in front of him were people he could provoke casually, especially David, who


    was sitting in the corner.


    He greeted them one by one. “Mr. Shain, Mr. Walker.”


    Landon raised his ss and toasted him. Then, he gestured for him to sit beside Jimmy.


    Lucas walked over and sat down in a manner neither servile nor overbearing, but his gaze keptnding


    on David.


    He felt like he had seen this person somewhere before.


    But he couldn’t remember for a moment.


    Coincidentally, Landon handed him a ss of wine.


    He reached out to take it. When he raised his head to drink, he slowly looked at David again from the


    corner of his eye.


    The man sat on the sofa casually. The cor of his shirt was slightly open, revealing his beautiful


    corbone lines, revealing a hint of fierceness and


    wildness.


    He exuded a natural noble aura, and the pressure around him was difficult to ignore. Even as he sat


    there motionless, he was inexplicably submissive.


    David seemed to have sensed something and looked over.


    Lucas suddenly froze when he met that pair of cold eyes that were as deep as a coldke.


    However, he did not look like a deserter who had lost his armor. Instead, he met the man’s eyes


    fearlessly.


    “That’s Mr. Jones,” Landon introduced to Lucas. “You can call him David.”


    When Lucas heard this, a hint of understanding shed in the depths of his eyes.


    Whether it was Landon in front of him, Jimmy, who was drinking and having fun, or “Mr. Jones” here,


    they all came from a ce beyond the reach of ordinary people.


    Aureliana!


    Located in North Ordax, it was not a city, but arge stateposed of many cities.


    It didn’t belong to any country in North Ordax, nor to any country or institution in the world. Instead, it


    was an independent region.


    And Aureliana’s intelligence was highly ssified.


    Therefore, other than the heads of corporations and the leaders of various countries, the outside world


    was unaware of the existence of this ce. Legend had it that there were once ancient Four Families in


    Aureliana, but they suffered riots in the continent decades ago.


    At that time, many forces were eyeing them covetously, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.


    However, to everyone’s surprise, the chaos in the continent subsided and Four Families in the


    continent were reshuffled overnight.


    As for the existence of the Jones family, it was an existence that even the Elders in Aureliana had to be


    wary of!


    Lucas’s eyes shed as he finished the wine in his ss..


    As more and more people came, the atmosphere became more and more lively, so everyone started


    ying dice.


    As the saying went, people were in high spirits when involved in happy events. By rights, they should


    have had good luck, too. However, Jimmy was extremely unlucky.


    Before long, all the wine on the table was in his stomach.


    “Mr. Johnson, you’re in luck tonight.” Jimmy had a cigarette in the corner of


    his mouth as he looked at Lucas meaningfully.


    Lucas smiled and said calmly, “I was just lucky.”


    Landon’s smile was very annoying. He looked at Jimmy with a provocative gaze. “Dude, don’t find an


    excuse for losing! If you’re willing to bet, admit defeat! Drink quickly!”


    “Sure!” Jimmy put out his cigarette and rolled up his sleeves, resisting the urge to flip the table as he


    said, “I’ve never been afraid of anyone when ites to drinking!“
