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

“Last name Gray, from Orange County, has a feud with the Brookes?” A figure quickly surfaced in Andrew’s mind—Lucas Gray.

But how could Lucas become the supreme ruler of California?

There must be something wrong with this!

Both Andrew and Shaun were in disbelief.

“No, no matter who that master of California is… the Brookes have been in San Jose.
We couldn’t have offended him!” Shaun said anxiously.

The lead bodyguard said, “You have to ask your daughter, Estelle Brooke! She maliciously humiliated Mr.
Gray and his sister-in-law in San Francisco, and she even tried to urge a member of the Watsons to deal with Mr.
Gray.
She’s absolutely unforgivable!

“Mr.
Gray has already given us orders.
If any of the Brookes are still alive in California after today, the Watsons will no longer exist either.

“So, you can all die in peace now!”

Several bodyguards came forward and flashed their daggers in their hands.
Andrew and Shaun knew that they were about to die.

Andrew had a look of despair on his face.
He didn’t expect that his granddaughter he had just praised would cause this huge disaster.
He was certain that the ‘Mr.
Gray’, who was the ‘master of California’, was Lucas without a doubt!

Lucas had already given them a chance before and allowed them to leave LA alive.
Yet Estelle had just offended him terribly.
He knew that they were bound to die this time!

“Hahahaha! This is probably God’s will.
It’s the Brookes’ retribution.
Hahaha!

“But even if I have to die, I will do it myself.
I don’t need you to do it!”

Andrew looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, his voice filled with despair and sarcasm, as well as endless regret.

He remembered that he had once pledged his allegiance to Lucas.
If he hadn’t done so for the sake of using Lucas and had instead been sincere about it, the Brookes would have probably become much stronger than before.
They might have even become the top family in California.

Unfortunately, he had been muddled at the time and chose to be hostile to Lucas, which caused the destruction of the Brookes’ foundation, leading them to their current plight.

He really regretted it now!

Andrew laughed miserably a few times before suddenly picking up the fruit knife on the coffee table and slitting his neck with it!

Screech! 

Blood spurted out of his neck as he fell to the floor.
Blood continued to gush out of the cut artery of his neck!

“Dad!” Shaun cried out in despair and lunged forward to cover Andrew’s throat but to no avail.
He could only watch Andrew twitch a few times before dying.

The once mighty and powerful helmsman of a top family had died just like that!

Shaun looked at his father’s lusterless eyes, and a smile of despair appeared on his face after he spaced out for a while.

Even his father had given resisting and committed suicide.
He obviously knew that the Brookes had already fallen into a terrible plight of no return.

He picked up the fruit knife Andrew had dropped on the floor and stabbed himself in the heart.

Soon, he also closed his eyes forever and left the world, following the steps of his father.

The lead bodyguard looked at the fallen figures of Andrew and Shaun on the floor, and his expression changed slightly.
But he soon regained his composure and ordered indifferently, “Kill all the other Brookes!”

“Yes!” The bodyguards immediately rushed to the other rooms of the villas.

Soon, the villas were full of panicked cries and screams.

None of the Brookes lived!

But Lucas, far away in Orange County, didn’t know all this yet.

In fact, he had instructed Reynold that he didn’t want to see any of the Brookes in California and only intended for him to drive the Brookes out of California.

But Reynold had used the most brutal way to exterminate the Brookes.

It was something that Lucas didn’t expect.

For some people, this was the last night of their lives.
But for the vast majority of people, it was an incomparably ordinary night.

But bright early the next morning, there were several shocking pieces of news and headlines that astonished everyone.

“The Elite Business Exchange experiences major change.
Two of the three top giants of San Francisco disappeared overnight!”

“The overbearing and invincible master of California has appeared and unified the major powerful families in the state!”

“More than sixty top families have submitted to the master of California!”

…

The large and eye-catching fonts on the front pages were all about news that shocked countless people in California.

When the first relevant piece of news appeared, everyone thought it was just a lousy joke.

But soon, when all the major news media in California were reporting these events at the same time, people realized that this wasn’t a joke at all, but an astonishing fact!

The person who could make so many top families submit at the same time had really appeared!

Many people with a keen sense of smell were also secretly alarmed because they knew that there were going to be enormous changes in the entire layout of California.

Everyone was guessing who the master of California was.
But all the media platforms seemed to have agreed that the only information they should reveal was that the master of California was known as Mr.
Gray.
There was no other information.

After all, Lucas had ordered everyone to keep quiet about the incident and his identity before the exchange ended.
How could they dare to reveal his identity?

But there was no mention of the Smiths of DC, who had tried to seize control of California, and the Peerless Martial Association’s California branch.

While the outside world was abuzz with the sudden appearance of the master of California, Lucas, the person in question, was living a quiet and comfortable life in Orange County.

He sent Cheyenne and Amelia to and from work and school every single day, living a warm and happy life.

William’s injuries had gotten much better, and he could go home to recuperate.

However, Charlotte was almost too busy to do anything.
Due to Lucas, many top wealthy families in California had submitted cooperation offers to the Stardust Corporation.
The daily operations of the company were enough to make Charlotte so busy that she barely had time to eat.
She worked overtime every day until very late before going home.

Lucas was speechless and said to Charlotte, “It’s good to be busy with work, but you can’t wear yourself out! There are some things that you should leave to your assistant and secretary.
If you don’t have enough staff, you should find a few more people instead of tiring yourself out.”

Charlotte said, “Lucas, don’t worry about it.
I can handle it! Besides, the Stardust Corporation is so important to you, and we’re at an extremely critical moment, so I don’t feel comfortable leaving this in someone else’s hand! I’d better take care of it myself!”

Lucas was touched.

The Stardust Corporation was indeed very important to him because it was the only thing his mother had left him.

Yet Charlotte cherished it so much that she would rather keep herself busy to the point of missing meals and not getting enough sleep than let Stardust Corporation suffer harm.
Lucas really felt touched.

“Charlotte, thank you!” Lucas looked at Charlotte with heartfelt gratitude.
