Connor was very respectful toward Lucas. In fact, he was even somewhat in awe of him.
Even though he had now become the actual helmsman of the Hale family, he didn't dare to be rude to Lucas at all.
During his son's full moon shower back then, Lucas had practically wiped out the Hales overnight with a single command. Later on, the dozens of Hales were spared also because of Lucas's power.
It could be said that Lucas had full control over the life and death of the Hales, so Connor was naturally afraid of a terrifying figure like him. In fact, he had even once broken out in cold sweat from being in the same car as Lucas.
But the Hales had now become subordinate to Lucas. In fact, everything the Hales had actually belonged to Lucas, which caused the drastic change in Connor's attitude. He no longer feared Lucas and instead genuinely submitted to him out of subservience to a superior.
