Before she could say anything, my parents heard the noise and came out of the house.
Seeing me covering my arm in pain, my parents looked at Lucas, who was holding an iron baseball bat, with anger on their faces.
If looks could kill, Lucas would have been riddled with wounds by now.
Seeing the angry looks on my parents’ faces, Victoria and Lucas immediately misunderstood.
Victoria said hurriedly: "Uncle and aunt, this is not my assistant's fault."
"It was this guy from unknown origin who sneaked up here and seemed to want to do something bad to your family, so Lucas hit him."
Hearing Victoria throwing dirty water on me, Lucas immediately understood and said to my parents, "It's obvious that this guy is not a good person."
"We met him on the way to Sterling Manor. He tried to blackmail us, but Mr. Thorne didn't want to get into trouble, so he gave him $10,000."
"I didn't expect this greedy guy to follow us here and sneak around Sterling Manor. I wonder what evil intentions he has!"
"I was worried that Mr. Thorne and Mr. Sterling might be disturbed, so I shouted at him to stop. Who knew that he would slap me in the face..."
