MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND - INTRO - Season 1 Episode 14

In the blink of an eye, they reached the chairman’s office on the top floor of the office tower.

Flynn Davis wiped the sofa with his sleeve, which the janitor had already cleaned, and respectfully asked Lucas to take a seat. He then made a cup of tea and served it to him. “I don’t know what kind of tea you like to drink. This is premium quality Dragon Well tea. If you’d like to have something else, I will have someone prepare it immediately.”

Lucas stopped him and stared at him with a mirthless smile.

Soon, Davis could no longer laugh, as he felt extremely stressed by Lucas’s gaze. Sweat began to seep out of his chubby face, droplet after droplet.

He wanted to find a subject to talk about on several instances, but he faltered when he saw the intimidating gaze in Lucas’s eyes. As time passed, he became even more uneasy.

Smack!

Lucas threw a folder of documents onto the table, making a sound that gave Davis an enormous shock and almost caused him to spring up from his seat even though it wasn’t loud.

Lucas angled his chin at documents. “Mr. Davis, take a look at it yourself.”

Davis carefully opened the documents and looked at the first two sentences, after which his face turned pale, and he started shuddering.

“Read it out loud,” Lucas ordered calmly.

“I-I…” Davis stammered while sweating profusely and shivering continuously. The content of the documents was outrageous. How could he read it aloud?

“You refuse to read it, right? I’ll read it for you.” Lucas began reading out loud every single word on the documents smoothly, as if he had already memorized it like the back of his hand.

“July 2018. A materials fund embezzlement of two hundred thousand dollars in cooperation with the Hanes Group.

“October 2018. Accepted bribes from Joslyn Building Materials, procured a batch of inferior building materials at a high price, and subsequently paid compensation due to quality problems, causing the company to incur losses of more than a million dollars.

“March 2019…”

…

Unable to tolerate it any longer, Davis’s knees went weak, and he fell onto the ground with a loud thud. While he knelt on the ground, his face turned as pale as a sheet of paper.

He didn’t expect the young chairman to have gotten ahold of so much incriminating evidence against him as soon as he joined. There were also many pieces of evidence that he had destroyed. He didn’t know where Lucas had obtained them from.

If Lucas wanted to sue him, he would probably have all his assets seized and get thrown behind bars!

“It was all because of a moment of folly that I made such a huge mistake. Chairman, please spare me this time and give me a chance. In the future, I will definitely change my ways and try to recover the losses. I’ll also increase the company’s value!”

“Lucas, should we get rid of him?” Jordan appeared beside Lucas at some point. He suggested a brutal solution as soon as he spoke.

Davis was so frightened that he almost peed his pants!

Lucas was going to take over the position of chairman, and Davis was aware of some of the things of his past. Although he was unclear on the details, he knew that Lucas had taken several lives before. He didn’t doubt the authenticity of these words.

Jordan was really not trying to intimidate him and was instead asking Lucas that question solemnly. As long as Lucas said yes, he would definitely kill Davis on the spot.

He had embezzled so much money and even used lousy materials in a construction project, causing harm to others and damage to the reputation and image of the Stardust Corporation. Even if he died a hundred times, it wouldn’t be too much.

“C-Chairman Gray, p-please spare me! As long as you let me off, I’m willing to do anything you want!”

Lucas glanced at Jordan with some displeasure. “We’re not there now. Don’t kill someone as soon as we return.”

Davis heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, but he soon heard Lucas’s indifferent voice above his head.

“I can give you a chance, but it depends on you to grasp it. Mr. Davis, you’re a smart man. I’m sure you know what I mean.”

His voice was heavenly to Davis. Overjoyed, he hurriedly exclaimed, “Yes, yes, thank you, Chairman. I will definitely obey your orders in the future!”

Lucas patted his shoulder and turned around to leave.

After Lucas had left for a while, Davis finally collapsed, his back drenched in cold sweat.

Since Lucas had evidence against him, he had no choice but to obey him.

Besides, the young chairman, Lucas Gray, was not simple. Although his tone wasn’t harsh, his indifference was even more frightening and intimidating, thus making Davis too scared to defy him.

“Lucas, are you going to let that scoundrel go just like that? Are you still going to let him continue being the general manager?” Walking out of the Stardust Corporation office building, Jordan was still full of regret.

“No hurry. I just came back, and I don’t have a particularly suitable candidate in mind. Davis is now in my hands. Besides, he’s quite competent and is familiar with the Stardust Corporation, as well as the forces in Orange County. He can still be in that position for a while. As for the future, it’ll depend on whether or not I can subdue him.

“The Stardust Group has been in the hands of the Hutton family for many years, and the interpersonal relationships are complicated. Let’s wait and see what happens. When we have enough people on our side, we’ll launch a purge and replace the majority of the personnel.”

“Okay, Lucas! I really hope to see that day soon.” Jordan rubbed his fists in anticipation.

Lucas couldn’t help laughing. Jordan was still a little childish, and he liked chaos and getting involved in drama.

“If you stick around with me, you’ll have fewer opportunities to display your talent. You…”

“No, no, Lucas. I know what you want to say. I’ve already said this before when I decided to leave Calico and follow you to Orange County. I’m not interested in building a career or empire. I just want to follow you around. Don’t think of chasing me back,” Jordan frantically said.

Lucas nodded without saying anything else.

“In that case, you should run around more in Orange County and find out more information for me. Especially…” Lucas’s face was completely sullen, and there seemed to be a storm brewing in his eyes. “The person who set me and Cheyenne up six years ago!”
