However, when Jude was about a meter in front of Lucas, he came to an abrupt halt.
Reason being, he noticed that Lucas's eyes didn't contain the slightest trace of panic, nor was he eager to block and dodge like others. He even stood still in place without avoiding. This degree of mental fortitude in young people was extremely rare.
Jude stroked his beard and suddenly said, "Kid, you are indeed a bit different from others. How about this? I'll give you a chance. From today onward, you will stay by my side and be loyal to me. I promise I won't mistreat you. How does this sound?"
Frederick and the others, who were tagging along behind Jude, simply couldn't believe their ears.
"Uh… Mr. York, we invited you over because we wanted you to help us deal with Lucas Gray. Why do you suddenly… want to accept him as your subordinate?"
Preston and Gaston were also full of astonishment.
