Chapter 262 - Smith\'s Illegitimate!

The anger was crystal clear in Amara\'s eyes when she faced Lucas with her bloodshot eyes. No one can even deny that a lady like her can be engraved to such an extent.

Yet Lucas maintained a calm face about the circumstances around him, "I don\'t know what you are talking about mother."

"Hah! How come the ruby gets stolen from my locker all of the sudden? It was there! I\'m sure it was there throughout but… today I saw it wasn\'t?" Amara felt that it wasn\'t even irony that took place.

Just when the news and the exchange talks were going around her family regarding the ruby exchange with the Johnsons, how come the ruby isn\'t at its place anymore?!

Her instincts told her only one thing, and that was this all to be done by one and only, that is her own blood, Lucas.

"You Are accusing me of something that I haven\'t even done. Mother.. are you sure that I have done that?" He can\'t help but ask without blinking his eyelashes even for a mere second.

His body language indicated another level of confidence, showing that he has nothing to hide. The same was noted by Amara and this made her confused, "This locker... is only known to you."

"But I haven\'t done that. Mother… look straight into my eyes. So, do you think that I will degrade myself to this level to get ruby?" Since he knows that he has to get his mother\'s trust, all he does is stare into her eyes with utmost honesty.

At the end of the day, she is his mother and knows very well how to get her by his side and how to not.

But what Amara never caught was the fact that her child is a brilliant actor. Knowing how to hide behind his mask, he can make anyone fool too radiantly and it wasn\'t much of a big deal for him as well.

As a mother, she can\'t oversee her child\'s attitude by herself, and probably this was the worst disadvantage she ever felt.

At last, Amara left his collar, when she took a few steps back with the horror written all over her face, "If not you then who.."

"We do need to find this out. But I assure you that I will never get involved in something like this.. never…" his gaze never tore from her body, with his hands around his collar now.

He coughed lightly to gain her attention, "I believe, we should also inform grandfather about this.."

"No! Not now! He will... get really furious about this.." Amara was under immense stress. Subconsciously she sat on the nearby couch, she gulped the glass of water present in the side.

"We have to find this sooner or later. This will create a disaster that has the power to destroy us, Lucas." The words made his eyes twitch when he asked, "What does this mean mother?"

"That it means a bad omen. Something really bad is coming on our path… this is the symbolic meaning behind the replacement of the ruby…. GOD.."

Keeping her face in her palm, Amara wanted to smash it against the wall. But this was out of her control now. Yet one thing she knew was all, the Ruby wasn\'t replaced but stolen!

KNOCK!

Just when both the son-mother duo were absorbed in their talks and conversation, the butler kept on knocking on the door instantly. This made their eyebrows raise.

Lucas walked towards the door and opened it to find the butler, with a slightly anxious face, "Now.. why are you coming here?"

"Young Master… I..suggest you and Madam should come downstairs right now. There Is someone... I guess you should see.."

The butler was shaking, and this made Lucas quite alarmed himself. The words of the butler were heard harshly by Amara as well when she passed Lucas a look, as they rushed downstairs to see who the guest was.

But once they arrived down, did they get the biggest shock of their lives.

Amara froze on her feet where she could feel her body was also on the verge of losing her consciousness, "Ve..Veronica.."

On the other hand, Lucas\'s eyes swept according to the room, did his eyes fall on the other mother and son duo sitting on the sofa set with a magazine in their hands.

Without any care about anything in this world, they looked so careless, as if? they owned this elite villa., "YOU TWO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"

The voice was enough to bring their attention when the man averted his gaze to look at Lucas and his mother but then, he shifted his eyes back to the magazine which he was reading.

Their actions of his were noted by Lucas who could sense anger in himself.

\'How dare this man ignore me…\' Lucas\'s blood was now getting on his white skin. His jaw tightened when he felt his self-esteem being hurt.

"I asked you both a question!" He yelled at the tip of his lungs, leaving his frozen mother behind, he made his way towards the? sofa where the man sat, "This house isn\'t yours, remember that."

"Is that so? So, now Lucas will tell me what is mine or not?" Sarcasticness wasn\'t missed in his voice when the man felt his ears almost get the lead.

Turning around, the man stared at Lucas with his narrowed eyes, when he pummeled in between his breathing, "Forgetting that I\'m a Smith as well?", the words were loud enough for Lucas to hear when his hands were converted into a fist...

Only if he could explain his messed up emotions on seeing their presence in this villa, after years long journey. \'Their arrival isn\'t good one..\' Lucas can extract this out of this situation for now.

Meanwhile, Lucas\'s eyes turned deadly when he instantly tossed him a glare and was ready to take a step ahead, but then his lips curved upwards to pass a comment, carrying enough power.

"An illegitimate child remains illegitimate.. remember that.."
