The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray

Chapter 473: Vying To Be the Driver

Robert was enraged and lashed out at Justin, “You dimwit! I told you early this morning that a big shot would be here today, so you ought to behave yourself and never offend anyone. Is this how you should behave? What a disgrace!”

After scolding his son, he turned his head to Nikki and rebuked unceremoniously, “And you! I thought you were smart, but I didn’t expect you to be so foolish! Are you so blind that you couldn’t tell that Mr. Cole values that punk Lucas Gray greatly? Or are you deaf, so you didn’t hear Mr. Cole saying that Lucas Gray is his life savior? How dare you accuse him in front of Mr. Cole and even ask him to help you deal with Lucas Gray? Have you lost your mind?”

Both Justin and Nikki couldn’t even hold their heads up while being scolded, let alone argue with Robert.

But a trace of greater resentment appeared in Nikki’s eyes.

Lucas Gray!

It’s all because of Lucas Gray! If not for him, I wouldn’t have not only failed to suck up to the Coles, but I even ended up offending Mr. Edmund Cole and caused Grandpa to lose two powerful backers for no reason!

All of this is his fault!

Robert didn’t notice this. After reprimanding his son and granddaughter, he looked at Eddie with a hostile expression and said coldly, “Eddie Turner, don’t come looking for me when your family faces any trouble again in the future! Nothing good will ever come out of getting involved with your family! Hmph!”

After snorting coldly, he walked straight toward the hotel entrance before the Turners could even react. He even rebuked, “What are you two waiting for? Hurry up and apologize to Lucas Gray immediately!”

In a short while, only a few people were left in the hotel, which had still been extremely crowded just now.

The Turners’ faces were exceptionally gloomy.

They were initially all prepared and ready to show off during the wedding, but their plans were now all completely ruined.

When Dylan brought his bride and her family over to the hotel at noon, they would be greeted with an unsightly scene.

...

After exiting the hotel, Lucas and his family walked directly to the parking lot not far away, intending to leave.

The wedding ended prematurely on an unhappy note, and they wouldn’t be returning to the Turners. Thus, they decided to head straight back to Orange County.

Stanley was originally ordered by Lucas to show up and protect Cheyenne, so he naturally tagged along.

But on the way, Stanley came close to Lucas’s ear and whispered something to him.

Lucas pondered quietly for a moment before saying to Cheyenne, “Honey, you guys head home first. I still have some business to take care of in LA. I’ll return once I’m done.”

Cheyenne nodded. She knew that the matters in LA had yet to be resolved and that the Parkers were still suspecting Lucas of being related to Tristan’s death. Many of the matters regarding the families in LA had yet to be resolved as well.

She was worried about Lucas. But she also knew that even if she stayed, she probably wouldn’t be of much help to him. On the contrary, she might even hinder him.

So after giving a nod of agreement, Cheyenne said worriedly, “Be careful then. You must make sure to pay attention to your safety. If anything happens to you, you must inform me too!”

With the support of Edmund and the presence of Flynn and Ethan, she wasn’t worried that Lucas wouldn’t be able to handle those matters. But she was afraid that someone would interfere or secretly resort to some unscrupulous means.

Lucas nodded and said with a faint smile, “Rest assured! I’ll be back soon.”

Then he solemnly instructed Stanley next to him, “Their safety is in your hands!”

Stanley had already shown up, so Lucas simply got straight to the point and openly arranged for him to protect and escort Cheyenne, Charlotte, and Amelia back to Orange County.

Wade would also follow them and protect them in secret.

Lucas’s family was his greatest weakness, so he would protect them at all times.

Stanley, as the former assault team leader of the Falcon Regiment, had incredible reflexes. And now that he had gained Lucas’s trust, he was definitely the best candidate for protecting Lucas’s wife and daughter.

Stanley naturally understood that Lucas trusted him, so he said solemnly, “Rest assured, Lucas! I’ll definitely complete my mission properly!”

“Okay, be careful along the way.”

After Lucas watched Stanley drive away with his family, he finally turned around and was about to go to the place Stanley had told him about when he suddenly heard someone calling out to him from behind.

“Lucas! Lucas! Wait for us!”

Lucas turned around and saw Edmund hurrying toward him with his granddaughter, Alexis.

Lucas stood in place and waited for Edmund, who was panting heavily, to walk to him. He asked, “Mr. Cole, you’ve already thanked me earlier. Is there something else?”

Seeing how nonchalant Lucas was, Edmund couldn’t help being dumbfounded for a moment. He appreciated Lucas even more.

Because of his identity as the helmsman of the Cole family, most people would subconsciously be scrupulous and respectful toward him whenever they saw him. The people who knew his status either feared him or would try their best to suck up to him.

But people like Lucas, who was composed and calm as if he was just facing an ordinary passerby, were really rare.

Alexis also looked at Lucas with great interest and asked curiously, “Lucas, my grandpa is the helmsman of the Cole family. Since you saved my grandpa’s life, you are the benefactor of our family. Aren’t you curious about what benefits you can get from us?”

Lucas shook his head indifferently, “I’ve already said that me saving Mr. Cole was just a lift of a finger. It’s not that great of a favor, and I’ve never thought of getting any benefits from you. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now.”

Alexis’s eyes widened in shock.

She could tell that Lucas really didn’t take the fact that he had saved Edmund seriously and wasn’t expecting Edmund to thank or repay him.

This made Alexis become even more interested in Lucas.

At this moment, Flynn and Ethan both hurried over.

Seeing Lucas in the parking lot, Ethan immediately said with a smile, “Mr. Gray, where are you going? Let me send you!”

Flynn glanced at Ethan with displeasure. “You don’t have to go to the trouble, Mr. Sawyer. I’m more familiar with LA, so I can send Mr. Gray to his destination!”

He had been working for Lucas for a while now, and Lucas had also set high expectations for him. So even though Ethan was the richest man in Orange County, Flynn reckoned that he mattered more to Lucas!

Edmund looked at the two people in front of him, who were both scrambling to be Lucas’s driver, and felt a little amused and shocked.

According to the information he had obtained, Lucas really didn’t seem to have any powerful status or background. He was just the husband of Cheyenne Carter from Orange County.

But the two people vying to be his driver were Ethan Sawyer, the richest man in Orange County, and Flynn Davis, a powerful figure who had recently risen to fame in LA. They were both extremely respectful to Lucas.

In fact, they even seemed to have failed to notice Edmund, who was standing right in front of them. Could Lucas have an extraordinary identity?!

He had only asked people to find out the identity of the Samaritan who had saved his life, so his subordinates had merely done a brief check on Lucas’s background. But it seemed that he had to run a thorough check on Lucas’s identity!

While thinking about it, Edmund suddenly smiled and said, “Lucas, I know you don’t need any gifts, but no matter what, you’ve saved my life. How about this? It’s about time for lunch. Regardless of where you’re going, you still have to eat. Why don’t I treat you to a meal to thank you? What do you think?”
