Chapter 871: Headquarters of the Stardust Corporation

In fact, no matter what Geoffrey did, he desperately wanted to bring Lucas and the Stones together.

He was no longer like he was when he was young. He was old now, and perhaps his days were limited. But even after putting in all his effort in his lifetime, he still couldn’t make the Stones reach beyond their peak.

Furthermore, who knew what the Stones would become once he died.

Lucas’s appearance made Geoffrey see some hope. If the Stones were under his protection, even if they didn’t become a new top-tier family, they would at least live in peace and safety, and there wouldn’t be any other problems!

…

When Lucas left the Stones’, the sky was already dark.

Maddy personally sent Lucas and Jordan to the entrance of the residence.

“Lucas, thank you for helping me!” Maddy said sincerely.

Lucas didn’t say what he had casually. It meant that he would take responsibility for the Stones in the future.

Lucas shook his head, “If you want to thank someone, thank Jordan! Before I came to the Stones, he had already asked me for a favor to protect them.

“So, if Jordan hadn’t asked me, I might not have agreed to your request!”

Lucas glared at Jordan, who was blushing and smiling.

Who knew what was wrong with him? He was usually a smart young man with a bit of a wicked streak, but he was so silly when it came to Maddy. Lucas couldn’t stand it at all.

Thus, he decided that he had to let Maddy know all the things Jordan had done for her, lest his efforts were unrecognized.

Maddy looked at Jordan in shock.

Then her eyes slowly turned red.

It was like this every time. She had always known that Jordan had secretly done many things for her but had never told her about them.

What a fool!

Seeing Maddy’s red eyes, Jordan immediately panicked. “Hey! Don’t cry! If I did anything wrong, you can scold me and hit me. Don’t cry!”

“Fool!” Maddy burst into laughter with a shy look of joy on her face.

Seeing them share such a moment, Lucas was also very happy.

Jordan was his best friend, and Maddy was the woman Jordan loved the most. Seeing the two of them finally getting together and obtaining their own happiness, Lucas felt heartened.

…

Early the following morning, at the entrance of the Stardust Corporation headquarters in the city center of DC…

A black Land Rover slowly pulled over at the entrance of the headquarters.

Seeing this scene, many people had shock in their eyes.

Reason being, everyone knew that the entrance of the Stardust Corporation headquarters wasn’t a place where anyone could park. Apart from the two top executives, no one dared to park their car there.

It was an unspoken rule.

It was about eight in the morning, which was the peak hour for working adults. So many white-collar workers noticed the car when they entered the office, causing their eyes to be full of surprise.

The doors of the car opened, and two tall figures immediately came out.

They were naturally Lucas and Jordan.

Looking at the giant logo of the Stardust Corporation in front of him, Lucas was full of complicated emotions.

This was the company his mother had established back then. But now, it had been under the Huttons’ control for years. Even though they had handed it to him, the Stardust Corporation headquarters in DC was still under the Huttons’ control.

He was here to change everything and take back the company his mother left him.

“Hey, who are you people? You’re not allowed to park here. Please drive your car to the parking lot!” Two young men in security uniforms walked over and shouted at them hostilely.

If he had come here in an expensive car, the security guards might have been more polite.

But Lucas and Jordan had driven over in a Land Rover that cost only around a hundred grand, so the security guards didn’t take them seriously.

Jordan immediately frowned and pointed to a red Porsche parked at the side. “Since you said that parking isn’t allowed here, why is that car allowed to park here?”

A trace of mockery appeared in the eyes of the two security guards. “Because that car belongs to the deputy general manager of our company. Of course he can park there! But who are you two? Are you worthy of parking here?”

“You only drive a Land Rover, but you think you’re big shots? There are countless cars like this in the city. It’s no big deal.

“Besides, the Stardust Corporation is not a place where any Tom, Dick, or Harry can go! The Huttons of DC are behind the Stardust Corporation, and they’re one of the eight top families! Even our deputy general manager is a Hutton. He’s not someone a small fry like you can compare to!

“I advise you to move your car quickly. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite to you!”

The two security guards were extremely arrogant, and they didn’t take Lucas and Jordan seriously at all. They even brought up the Huttons at every turn.

Lucas narrowed his eyes.

“What’s with the fuss here? Did something happen here?”

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a pot belly walked over and asked with annoyance.

“Mr. Morris, you’re here!”

The security guards immediately put on a fawning and deferential smile when they saw the middle-aged man. They bowed to greet him.

The middle-aged man was the deputy general manager of the corporation and had just come out of the red Porsche.

“Mr. Morris, it’s like this! These two punks pulled over at the entrance without saying anything. We told them to move their car to the parking lot, but they refused. Their attitude was extremely arrogant too. They insisted on parking here, so we were harsher toward them,” one of the security guards explained to Morris.

Lucas frowned. He was clearly lying.
