Prestons face was naturally extremely gloomy at this point.

Lucas was clearly trying to intimidate him!

It was just an ordinary dice, but the power that emerged from Lucass hand when he threw it was not inferior to the power contained in a bullet shot from a gun!

Besides, the dice Lucas shot had landed near Prestons head.

If Lucas had intended to kill Preston, he would have probably been shot in the head by now!

At the thought of this, Preston felt his entire bodys hair stand on end, and cold sweat rapidly seeped out of his pores, making him chilly all over.

And Prestons elite bodyguard was also overwhelmed with shock.

As a bodyguard, he should protect his employers safety in any emergency situation.

But the speed of the dice Lucas shot out just now was so quick that it wasnt visible to the naked eye.

In fact, he only figured out what happened after hearing the terse and sharp sound of the dice shuttling through the air, followed by the loud bang.

He couldnt even react in time, let alone protect his employer, Preston, from the dice full of thunderous power that had traveled at lightning speed.

The elite bodyguard subconsciously touched the bulge on his waist, where there was clearly a hidden weapon.

Lucas guessed that it was probably a pistol, and as soon as Preston gave the order, he would immediately pull it out and aim it at Lucas.

But a pistol was just like a toy to Lucas.

It didnt scare or deter him at all.

So Lucas was still smiling calmly and sitting on the couch, as if he hadnt noticed the bodyguards actions at all.

“Stand down!” Preston clenched his jaw and hollered loudly.

Only then did his bodyguard put his hand down indignantly and retreated to stand behind Preston.

Seeing the calm expression on Lucass face, Preston forced himself to smile, and his attitude changed drastically.

“Mr.

Gray, I forgot to mention something just now.

Im not asking you to return the Ocean Bathhouse to me for free.

Since you spent eight million dollars to acquire it, Ill give you sixteen million now.

I promise you wont suffer any losses.

What do you say”

Lucas shook his head.

“Return to you Mr.

Taylor, you must have misunderstood! I bought the Ocean Bathhouse with cash, and all the legal procedures for the purchase have been completed.

What do you meanreturn it to you”

Curbing his anger, Preston clenched his jaw.

“I shall rephrase my words.

Ill buy the bathhouse back from you at twice the original sale price!”

“No.” Lucas shook his head without hesitation.

“Triple the price! Ill buy the bathhouse at three times what you paid!” Preston increased the offer.

“Lucas Gray, you purchased the Ocean Bathhouse from Calvin Pearce at only eight million, and within a day, youre going to earn sixteen million if you accept my offer.

This isnt a deal that comes by all the time!”

In fact, Preston was anguished, as he felt the pinch of having to pay so much.

He was in charge of the Ocean Bathhouse in the first place, and the businesses run in the bathhouse, especially the one on the top floor, was indispensable for the Taylors.

Yet Calvin had sold it to Lucas at a low price of eight million dollars!

The Ocean Bathhouse was extremely important for the Taylors, and even more so for Preston! If the old fogies of the family who had always been against him found out, they would definitely strip him of his position as the successor!

Therefore, Preston had to get the Ocean Bathhouse back before the rest of the Taylors found out!

At first, he wanted to force Lucas to hand over the Ocean Bathhouse, but he was intimidated by the scene when Lucas shot the dice.

So if he wanted to get the bathhouse back now, he would have to be resolute and buy it back with cash!

As for the extra 16 million dollars, he would have to fork it out of his own pocket.

16 million dollars!

The thought of giving away such a large amount of money to Lucas for nothing made Preston feel extremely devastated!

But the 16 million dollars that made Preston extremely upset was nothing to Lucas.

Not to mention the immeasurable wealth that Lucas had, Tony Zander had recently given Lucas 24 million dollars for nothing.

So Lucas really didnt care for this 16 million dollars.

“No.

Even if you pay me five or ten times the price I paid, I wont sell it to you.

Im sure you know better than me the exact value of the Ocean Bathhouse.” Lucas shook his head adamantly.

Preston played dumb and said, “Its just a bathhouse.

How much value can it have The only reason I want it back is because its the place that built the Taylors family fortune.

Mr.

Gray, if youre interested in such entertainment joints, how about I trade Snowflake Entertainment for the Ocean Bathhouse This deal will definitely guarantee you a profit!”

Lucas sneered in derision.

“Mr.

Taylor, lets be open and aboveboard.

The Ocean Bathhouse is different from other entertainment joints, and we both know it.

Otherwise, why would you be so insistent on getting it back”

When Preston heard this, his eyelids twitched.

Actually, many members of the countys upper class were aware of the business being run on the top floor of the Ocean Bathhouse.

Otherwise, how did their clientele come about

But Preston didnt expect that Lucas, a person he thought was of insignificant status, would find out about it and even harp on it insistently.

“Lucas Gray, since youre already aware of it, you should know how important it is to the Taylors.

I will lay my cards on the table.

What exactly do you want before you are willing to hand over the Ocean Bathhouse to me” Preston glared at Lucas.

If he wasnt afraid of Lucass impressive feat, he would have long told his bodyguard to kill Lucas!

Lucas tilted his head and smiled.

“Actually, Im not trying to be greedy and rip you off.

To be honest, I only have a small request.

As long as you agree, I can return the Ocean Bathhouse to you for free.”

“Do you mean it” Preston was overjoyed, but he soon sensed that something was amiss.

He reckoned that if it was a request that could make Lucas give up easily obtaining a profit of millions of dollars, it mustnt be a simple one.

“What is your request If you raise something that I cant fulfill or is far beyond my means, wouldnt that be a waste of breath” Preston asked conscientiously.

Lucas smiled faintly.

“I have a simple request, and its definitely something that you can fulfill.

Im very interested in the business that the Taylors are running on the top floor of the Ocean Bathhouse.

As long as you help me recommend some business, Ill give the Ocean Bathhouse to you for free.

How does that sound”

“What!” Preston never expected that to be Lucass request!
