Chapter 962 No Way To Escape

Carla sat up and pulled the bed cover aside when she overheard what Lucia was saying to Carol.

Little did she expect that Steven would stop her as she was about to stand up.

"You shouldn't move too much Carla, you're still very sick. Don't worry, I'll see what's going on."

Steven turned around and went outside after he let her lay down in bed.

When he opened the door, Carol was fighting with Carlota while Lucia just stood aside watching them.

When Lucia saw that Steven had come out, she forgot about the other two women and immediately walked to him with a smile.

"Steven! I'm so glad to see you."

Steven closed the door behind him and turned to Lucia. "Lucia, you know very well that this is your grandfather's house, not yours. The fact that you've brought people here to make trouble is quite insensitive and callous. Tell me that I'm wrong."

As Lucia heard his words, she easily concluded that Carla was in the house.

Lucia's joy turned into frustration as she thought about it. "You are trying to defend her again, aren't you?

You surely can remember what I told you once. Feel free to remind her to start being careful. I can't even believe that she's challenging me for the throne. She's noting but the daughter of the family traitor.

You're wise, Steven. You still have an opportunity to clear your head and change your mind. Smart people will follow the right leader. Carla's undoubtedly going to be crushed by me. Your only reasonable move is to choose to be on my side."

Lucy walked towards him and lay her hand on his shoulder. "You still have time to make up your mind. And when you do, just let me know and get back to me quickly before I change my mind. And do it quickly."

She had never had him by her side and he had never shown any interest in her. That's why she wanted him like crazy.

Steven moved her hand away from him as he looked straight at her. "I've never felt the need of having someone else as my backup. As a proud man, I need no woman to support me.

I urge you to stop Carlota. She's making a mess and a fool of herself. This place is under the charge of Sir Arthur. The last thing he wants is to have people fighting in his house. He doesn't like displays of misbehavior like this at all.

If she causes more trouble, you shouldn't assume that she will get away with it."

Second only to the clan chief, Carla's grandfather was the most respected person in Yu Sea City.

If Arthur was ever displeased, it would also affect the clan leader, who also happened to be Carla's grandmother.

"Hah! You shouldn't even try to intimidate me with my grandfather's well known reputation. He's not

arol was ready to defend herself, but Lucia jumped in to break her speech.

"Carla! Stop the bullshit and stand in front of me right now! Don't be a coward! If you won't even land a finger on me, then leave Yu Sea City at once! Fight me now, bitch! One way or another!"

Carla wasn't at her best condition since she had just taken her medicine which made her weak and drowsy. However, she gave a furious look at Lucia and stepped forward and pushed Carol away. "You mustn't worry too much about me, Carol. I can handle this."

"You're in no condition to fight, Mrs. An."

Carol anxiously insisted. It was her job to prevent Carla from hurting herself. She wanted to stand in front of Lucia.

"Hold your horses, Carla. Please think it over."

Steven was hesitant and tried to stop Carla as well.

Carla was ill-prepared for any fight, with nothing but a thin white T-shirt and a pair of jeans. She had handed her coat to Carol.

Carla wasn't a fan of wearing the clothes that they usually wore in Yu Sea City. Although she could wear those types of clothes, she would still choose to wear more comfortable outfits.

"Carla, Let everybody know that they're not allowed to interfere in this fight. The outcome shall be as it is fated to be."

As she gave Carlota the order, Lucia was sure of herself, that she would beat Carla with ease.

Lucia took her huge coat off and gave it to Carlota. Then, she started to warm up by loosening up her shoulders and shaking both of her wrists as she stared at Carla with fierce eyes.

"Once the fight starts, there's no escape. That is the main rule of fighting here in Yu Sea City. You're not even allowed to complain if I hurt you badly since you agreed to face me."

Smirking, Lucia felt truly confident in herself.
