Chapter 1257 - 1256: Prisoners

In shock, at this moment, Adam stepped forward directly, heading towards Canterbury and Zobek.

His pace was incredibly fast, the walking stick in his hand continuously striking the ground, producing a 'thump, thump, thump' sound, appearing very frequent at first glance.

"What are you doing!?"

Quickly arriving in front of Canterbury and Zobek, Adam suddenly halted his walking stick, and spoke coldly: "You are men of the Wellesley Clan, you are figures in London's high society, you have titles, identity, status; you are above all others!"

Reaching this point, Adam's voice carried traces of coldness, as he looked at the kneeling Canterbury and Zobek and spoke: "And yet, here you are kneeling on the ground, where does this place the dignity and honor of the Wellesley Clan?!"

"Stand up immediately, at once!"

While speaking, Adam's gaze was filled with fierceness, looking around with hints of anger.

Men in the United Kingdom place great importance on identity and status, and Adam, being a Duke in the United Kingdom, valued this matter even more!

Now Zobek and Canterbury kneeling on the ground was certainly a huge depletion of dignity, making Adam feel incredibly ashamed.

"Father..."

Upon hearing Adam's words, Zobek spoke in a low voice: "It's not that we lack dignity, nor that we don't want to stand up; we too place the same importance on dignity and family honor..."

Speaking in a low tone with traces of dryness in his voice.

"Since it's so important."

Upon hearing Zobek's words, Adam spoke coldly: "Then why are you still kneeling here? Don't you know this is a disgrace to the family?"

As he spoke, Adam forcefully jabbed the walking stick on the ground, then said: "Get up!"

With these words, there was a sense of undeniable compulsion in Adam's tone.

However, despite the command, Canterbury and Zobek did not stand up; they remained kneeling, biting their teeth and then said: "Father, it's not that we don't care about family dignity, nor that we don't want to stand up..."

At this point, Canterbury and Zobek exchanged glances, looking towards Lu Yu's direction.

Now they realized Lu Yu was standing not far from them, looking at them with a smirk, his eyes full of playfulness and coldness, carrying a strong sense of threat.

Lu Yu's meaning was already clear.

The meaning was, you two try standing up!

Gulp!

Seeing this, Zobek and Canterbury swallowed hard, then said: "Father, it's not that we are unwilling to stand up, but rather we dare not stand up at all right now!"

While speaking, Zobek glanced at Lu Yu not far away and said: "As long as that man is over there, we cannot stand up at all!"

While speaking, there was already a trace of fear in Zobek's voice.

"What!?"

Upon hearing Zobek's words, Adam instantly became extremely furious.

At that moment, he forcefully struck the ground with his walking stick, glaring as he spoke: "Who has such audacity to dare lay a hand on members of the Wellesley Clan..."

"It's me."

Before Zobek could speak, Lu Yu's voice instantly interrupted Adam's, his voice was full of coldness, giving an extremely mischievous feel.

With those words, Adam's body tensed abruptly, he slowly turned his head to look at Lu Yu, his eyes full of coldness.

This coldness contrasted with his luxurious suit, somehow exuding a sense of majesty!

With his gaze on Lu Yu, Adam now emanated a fierce sense of threat.

"I don't care who he is."

Taking a deep look at Canterbury and Zobek, Adam spoke coldly: "I now order you to stand up immediately, otherwise don't blame the strict family rules of the Wellesley Clan!"

While speaking, Adam's voice carried a sense of undeniable authority.

With these words, Canterbury and Zobek exchanged a glance, then looked at the special police behind them, slightly recovering some confidence.

Now they began to move, preparing to stand up again.

However, just as Canterbury and Zobek were about to move, Lu Yu's voice drifted over slowly: "Try standing up!"

While speaking, there was a trace of threat in Lu Yu's gaze, and this sense of threat fell upon Canterbury and Zobek like steel needles, causing their previously upright bodies to kneel down once more.

Now the oppressive aura of Lu Yu made them feel like ants, not daring to react at all!

Seeing the scene in front, Adam was filled with extreme anger.

Looking at Canterbury and Zobek, he then said: "You fools, what are you doing! You are actually so humble and respectful in front of a stranger, you have utterly disgraced the Wellesley Clan!"

"Get up now!"

In his words, Adam's face carried hints of anger, his face flushed red, clearly a result of rage and indignation.

However, after Adam's words, Canterbury and Zobek remained motionless.

Now they were kneeling on the ground like two statues, not moving at all, appearing very humble and fearful.

Seeing the scene before him, Adam was shocked, he never imagined that his painstakingly nurtured children would be so humble and respectful before Lu Yu, kneeling without any resistance!

To cultivate Zobek and Canterbury's aristocratic spirit, Adam spent a lot of money nurturing them from an early age.

Originally believing that after years of nurturing, Zobek and Canterbury surely embodied aristocratic spirit.

But now he never imagined, his decades of effort turned into nothing in the face of Lu Yu!

Now Zobek and Canterburn kneel on the ground, lacking any trace of noble aura, clearly like two prisoners!
