A Phone Call

Lucas found Daniel's arrogance and foolishness absolutely ridiculous, so he smirked derisively.

"Hmph, what are you laughing at?" Daniel was enraged, but he soon thought of something else and raised his head proudly. "Hah, I almost forgot. You're just a penniless lowlife. I'm afraid you don't know how powerful the Feather Corporation is, do you? Let me tell you, the Feather Corporation belongs to the Hales, one of the four most powerful families in Orange County. You will never climb high enough to reach their level!

"Now that you've offended me, it is tantamount to offending the Feather Corporation. I heard that the Carters are on the verge of bankruptcy. If you don't kneel down immediately, apologize to me, and beg me for forgiveness, I'll make a phone call now, and the Carters will be driven out of Orange County! Do you understand?"
