She Became Rich After Divorce by Georgina Lane

Chapter 496: Past Achievements The members of the Lucas family are both cruel and mysterious in nature, possessing a powerful arcane called Locking Spirit. This arcane strengthened their own luck by using the fortunes of others. In order to gain a foothold in chaotic times, they had sought to find a use for this arcane.

Finally, they found it.

After death, one does not immediately disappear; instead, the last breath remaining in the body gradually dissipates over seven days. By preserving this vital energy and refining it, it can be transferred onto the caster's body to enhance their own luck. Women are particularly suited for this process.

As tpassed, the Lucas family grew stronger and began kidnapping wealthy people to steal their fortune and accumulate wealth themselves. Their influence spread overseas where they were no longer satisfied with small achievements but began collaborating with foreign tycoons who trusted them.

Twenty-five years ago, a young genius named Noah Lukas emerged from within the Lucas family and becits most outstanding member at just twenty-three years old through his creation of an innovative arcane called "Locking Luck". He could control hundreds of dead souls simultaneously, which made him highly sought after by major families.

However, Noah was extremely mysterious, reportedly having killed countless people for his selfish desires which earned him many enemies.

After losing against the President Abel Harrison twenty-five years ago, he disappeared completely, leaving behind a weakened family whose power had been significantly reduced...

Ten years ago, however, the Lucas family made another comeback: killing indiscriminately in order to seize other peoples' fortunes while secretly plotting something called "Nebula Project", which aimed at replacing the Harrison family and becoming the top family of Chulae.

To achieve this end, they colluded with foreign powers, forming an organization called "The Hand Of God". Both Soar Casino and TWILIGHT were founded by the Lucas family. However, nobody knew how many chips the Lucas family were having.

Ten years ago, the Lucas family caused a major epidemic in Southeast Region that took away the lives of many young girls and led to over twenty missing persons cases.

The victims were all young and beautiful, and their remains were found in various suburbs years later. Abel quickly demanded an investigation, and Cheyenne's grandfather Layne was one of the people who went to there at that time. He worked with the Owen family head to solve the epidemic, and during their investigation they discovered Misty Forest 1. 0.

After returning, Layne lived a low-key life in Yrose and refused any further missions. However, he did not expect that ten years later, the Lucas family would cknocking on his door.

The piece of cloth containing strange symbols indicated the Lucas family's address.

When Layne died, this map was torn into several pieces during disputes over its ownership and whereabouts becunknown.

Kelvin soon realized an important question after listening to Old Mr. Foley's story. "Grandpa, how did you know all these things? Were you also involved?" The Foley family always conducted business honestly without getting involved in illegal activities; however given their absolute strength, it would be unwise for anyone to underestimate them.

Old Mr. Foley couldn't help but feel proud when asked about his involvement. "Of course I participated! I wasn't just part of the plan; I made decisions! The first person that Lucas family wanted dead was me. Luckily, Layne saved my life." He owed Layne for saving him back then; furthermore, he saw potential in Cheyenne as she was smart and talented. Because of all this, he had her marry into the Foley family but the marriage only made Cheyenne suffer.

He felt sorry for Cheyenne as well as Layne who saved him back then.

At this moment when everyone was curious about Old Mr. Foley's role and relationship with the President, Iker suddenly spoke up, "Old Mr. Foley, I've heard my father mention you were in the military when you were younger, right?" Old Mr. Foley burst out laughing with a proud look on his face. He stroked his beard and boasted shamelessly. "That happened all many years ago, not worth mentioning at all." "I just found Quash 216 back then." Quash 216! The first and most mysterious troop, rumored to have less than twenty core members who could make enemies tremble with fear.

Even Gordon couldn't get in back then.

Kelvin's eyes lit up as if he had thought of something incredible. His deep-set eyes filled with disbelief as he asked hoarsely, "So... the uncle who trainedback then was..." "Correct! He's now the Minister of Public Security, Finnegan," Old Mr. Foley replied. "And what about Karson who taughtfree combat?" Kelvin asked eagerly.

"That's right! He's Mr. Foley's personal bodyguard," Old Mr. Foley confirmed.

Iker gasped in envy and jealousy; he had thought Kelvin was just a businessman with capitalistom hypocrisy and cowardice written all over him but reality proved otherwise: Kelvin wasn't just good at making money but also had been taught by so many bigwigs since childhood that his martial arts skills must be top-notch too.

Old Mr. Foley suddenly called out Iker's nnext while grinning el widely at him. "Your dad is the worst student ve ever taught! But you're much better than him. If you were thirty years younger, I would have chosen you instead of your father." He had warned Kai before not to be too complacent or indulgent in emotional entanglements as they would hinder him from achieving more.

As expected, after becoming a certain army commander at age thirty-seven, Kai stopped being promoted again.

Iker was potential and talented, but his personal development was limited for many years due to internal conflicts within the Todd family.
