Jonathan stepped out of the car. Startled, Lucas banged into the steering wheel. Just as Lucas regained his composure, Jonathan knocked on his car window.
Lucas felt a twinge of guilt and lowered the window. Jonathan said coldly, "I thought who it might be. So, it's you. Why are you following me?"
"! ..." Lucas began to explain that he hadn't been tailing Jonathan.
However, the roar of engines filled the air before he could clarify.
Several vans quickly surrounded them, and people armed with clubs poured out. These were Lucas's people. Lucas knew that Jonathan might have deliberately lured him out.
Even if he explained, Jonathan wouldn't believe him at this moment. Instead of trying to justify himself, Lucas decided to deal with Jonathan tonight. With that, his mission would be complete. "Why?"
Jonathan's gaze swept across the group surrounding them, his eyes growing darker. Lucas nonchalantly smirked.
"Jonathan, someone hired me. Otherwise, I wouldn't do this to you considering our friendship. Look, I got injured for you!"
He gestured towards the bandaged wound on his leg.
"What did he offer you?"
Jonathan's expression carried a hint of cold amusement. Lucas didn't hide anything.
"My sister promised me 20 percent of Caldwell Group's shares. With that 20 percent, I can control it."
He continued, "You know, I have several brothers in my family. Even if they don't ask me, they'll find someone else. I can't let that 20 percent fall into my other brother's hands. I'm sorry!" Jonathan understood. After the failed assassination by Jack's people last time, they lost the Sutton family in Aquastead. Jack even hired a hitman to kill him to seamlessly take over the Finch family. "Do you think these people take my life?" Jonathan gazed at Lucas. Lucas's face was pale, and a fresh streak of red appeared at the wound on his shoulder.
Lucas replied confidently. "Jonathan, it all depends on them."
With those words, Lucas suddenly slammed on the accelerator and crashed into the car Jonathan had parked in front of them,
Lucas's men kept closing in on Jonathan while Lucas eagerly awaited Jonathan's fate in his car. He stopped the car and casually watched.
As the crowd closed in on Jonathan, the imminent threat of the clubs loomed. Suddenly, a dozen or so
cars sped towards them.

Lucas was taken aback as numerous people jumped out from the cars and easily subdued his men. What was happening?
Lucas had meticulously ensured Jonathan evaded the Finch family's Azure Clan bodyguards and drove here alone. Yet, how... It was a trap!
Lucas realized the situation too late. He saw Jonathan's gaze turning towards him. Almost instinctively, fear gripped Lucas's heart. Without daring to linger, he swiftly accelerated and raced
away.
However, Jonathan wouldn't let him escape.
"Intercept him! Cut off one of his fingers and send it to Jack! Jonathan coldly ordered the arriving Finley.
Finley promptly complied and drove off to pursue Lucas.
Before leaving, Finley said to Jonathan, "Mr. Finch, Mrs. Finch... you should go see her first."
Though he didn't elaborate, Jonathan had a vague sense of what was happening. Without at moment's delay, Jonathan drove straight to Zenwood Gardens.
Zac was waiting at the door as he exited the elevator,
"Jonathan, Rose... Zac quickly recounted the events after they arrived at the hotel.
Jonathan's hands gradually clenched into fists. With no time to spare, he unlocked the door using his fingerprint and entered the pitch-dark house.
He didn't turn on the lights and headed straight for Rose's room, However, Rose's door was tightly locked, and the sound of water emanated from inside.
