The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 140

Everyone’s face was grim when they heard it, but as the younger generations of the Ford Family, no one dared to say anything about Henry due to the family’s strict rules.

Lucas was furious and scowled. “Daisy is a woman from the red-light district. Do you know what the others said about us when they knew…” He paused for a moment as it was too embarrassing to say it. “That she is pregnant with your child?”

Henry furrowed his brows as he appeared displeased with Lucas’ words. “Her family forced her to be in the red-light district; you can’t blame it on her. As for the gossip of others, all we have to do is ignore them.”

When Lucas noticed that Henry was still charging on bullheaded, disregarding everyone, Lucas couldn’t help but turn red in the face. His veins bulged on his forehead, and his lips quivered in fury. “I have respected you and treated you as a role model since I was young. So I never expected that you would go against your morals to do such a thing. Yet, you don’t feel embarrassed about it and even wanted to persuade us with your misconceptions!”

Henry couldn’t contain the rage inside him when he heard Lucas’ accusations. He grabbed the teacup from the table and threw it toward Lucas. The teacup hit Lucas and shattered into pieces while the warm tea flowed down his face. Then, Henry stood up and glared at Lucas. “It looks like you have forgotten about the manners I’ve taught you, Lucas. Is this how you speak to your elders?”

“Lucas!” Once Nancy saw that things had gotten to this point, she couldn’t hold it back any longer and ran toward him. She was heartbroken when she saw the blood seeping out from the cut on his forehead. “You’re bleeding. Does it hurt?”

Lucas didn’t answer and kept his mouth shut as his eyes stared intently at Henry.

At this moment, Bella pushed her wheelchair forward and said softly, “Please forgive Lucas, Grandpa. He didn’t think his words through since he lost his temper.” Then, she looked at Lucas. “Luke, hurry up and apologize to Grandpa. Look how angry you made him.”

Despite Bella having given him an out, Lucas didn’t take it. He gripped his knuckles and glared at Henry as he spoke. “What I’m saying is the truth. It is an insult for a 70-year-old man to deny his mistake of having sex with a 20-year-old sl*t and making her pregnant.” He didn’t flinch as he glared right back into Henry’s death stare and said, “You are an old hooligan!”

No matter where Henry was, everyone respected him. So, when he heard Lucas’ words, he blew his top. “Get out of here! I do not have such a grandson like you!”

When Nancy heard Henry’s words, she looked at him and shrieked, “Dad, he is just a kid. Why are you holding such a grudge toward him?!” Then, she turned to Lucas and grabbed his hand to comfort him, but Lucas swatted her hand away.
