MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 4 - Season 5 Episode 61

Nikki had been creating trouble incessantly, and Lucas had been tolerating her nonsense for a long time.

Moreover, Lucas had just been sitting still like he was just watching a show while letting Flynn handle the matter.

Now that he had witnessed Flynn’s competency and capabilities, he didn’t mind intervening to personally deal with these big shots of major families, as he reckoned that even Flynn wouldn’t be able to deal with so many powerful opponents.

Lucas’s sudden kick caught many people off guard.

In particular, Ethan was staring at him with his eyes so wide open that they seemed to be about to fall out.

“Mr… Mr. Gray!?! You… What are you doing here?” Ethan asked in surprise.

He had arrived the latest, so he wasn’t aware of the tension in the ballroom and the previous conflicts that had broken out. Besides, he was here only to apologize to Damon, so he dragged Lena with him and headed straight to where Damon was as soon as he entered. He didn’t notice the other people around him at all.

Not to mention Lucas, who was sitting in the corner and blocked by many people, Ethan didn’t even notice Matthew, who was sitting near Damon.

It was only when Lucas stood up to send Nikki flying with a kick, attracting the attention of the crowd, did Ethan finally discover Lucas’s presence.

Moreover, he was smart enough to immediately guess from the gazes in the eyes of those around him that Lucas wasn’t in a favorable position right now.

But Ethan wasn’t the least bit worried about Lucas.

Among all the people here, Ethan was probably the one who knew most about Lucas’s true strength and power.

When Lucas returned to Orange County more than three months ago, Ethan had personally gone to the airport to pick up Lucas with Chad Kennedy, the Huttons’ butler. Chad had also relayed the intentions of the helmsman of the Huttons for Lucas to return to DC and take over the family.

They were the Huttons, one of the eight major families in DC! They held immeasurable power, and it would be no exaggeration to say that they were almost as wealthy as the country.

Although Lucas had directly and unceremoniously rejected the Huttons, Chad didn’t get angry in the slightest. Instead, he told Lucas that he could return to the Huttons to take over the family at any time as long as he was willing to.

This just showed how terrifying Lucas’s true power really was!

Apart from this, Ethan had also discovered that Lucas had done many amazing things even without the help of the Huttons’ power. Except for the Stardust Corporation, which the Huttons had returned to Lucas, the rest of the businesses he now owned, such as the Ocean Bathhouse, Little Atlantis City, and the Solar Corporation, were acquired on his own.

Moreover, Ethan also sensed that Lucas’s true power was probably far more terrifying than this!

Just as Ethan was thinking about the problem, two people immediately ran to Nikki, who had been kicked away by Lucas. After taking a look at her, they raised their heads and glowered at Lucas in exasperation.

“Lucas Gray! How dare you lay a hand on my daughter?! I’m going to kill you!” Justin saw Nikki curled up on the ground, clutching her gut and throwing up some of the food she had eaten. He was enraged and glared at Lucas like he wanted to devour him alive!

In the beginning, he didn’t value Nikki much. But she deserved great credit for obtaining Damon’s offer to cooperate with the Herons earlier. Thus, she was no longer worthless in his eyes, so he was livid at this moment.

Moreover, Nikki was his daughter, and the fact that Lucas had hit her in front of so many people was a blatant insult to him and the Herons. To make matters worse, Justin had always treated Lucas as a good-for-nothing, yet Lucas had the guts to hit Nikki, something that he wouldn’t let go of no matter what!

Gretchen shrieked and leaped toward Nikki while howling in a shrilling voice. “Ahh! Lucas Gray, you scoundrel. How could you hit my daughter so severely?! I’ll never spare you. I’m going to kill you! My poor Nikki, wake up quickly! Don’t scare me! If anything happens to you, I’ll bury Lucas Gray with you!”

The faces of the other Turners were also extremely gloomy.

In their opinion, Nikki had a higher status than Charlotte and Cheyenne because she was the granddaughter of Robert Heron, the head of a second-tier family in LA.

But she had just gotten hit by Cheyenne’s good-for-nothing husband!

How could this do?

Eddie was so furious that his face paled, and he vented all his anger on Karen. “Karen, look at this trash you’ve chosen for a son-in-law! What else can he do besides causing trouble? Oh, he also knows to hit his relatives. How impressive!”

Alex chimed in sarcastically, “Karen, I told you, your son-in-law is a complete wastrel! He doesn’t dare to say a word when he’s targeted by others, but he’s so haughty and harsh to his own relatives. Hah! If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have invited you guys! All you do is create trouble for me!”

Karen’s face turned red from getting rebuked, but she couldn’t reply at all.

So she could only glare at Lucas scornfully while making up her mind that she would definitely drive Lucas, whom she perceived to be a jinx, out of their lives!

But before that, she decided that she had to get her hands on Lucas’s villa and his assets!

At this moment, Justin was so exasperated that he picked up a large bowl on the table next to him and hurled it at Lucas. “Go to hell!”

The heavy porcelain bowl flew toward Lucas’s head.

“Stop it!” Ethan’s expression changed drastically as he roared angrily and immediately rushed toward Justin.

But he was still a little too far from Lucas and couldn’t make it in time.

Fortunately, the porcelain bowl was blocked by the few bodyguards that Flynn had arranged earlier to stand by Lucas’s side.

Ethan rushed over in fury and kicked Justin!

“Who do you think you are? How dare you lay a hand on Mr. Gray?!” Ethan cursed furiously and continued to kick Justin, appearing to have not vented his anger yet.

Not far away, Lena looked at the scene in front of her with her eyes so wide open that they were about to fall out.

W-what’s going on?

Am I hallucinating?

Didn’t Dad bring me here to confront Lucas and force me to tell the Parkers all about Lucas to seek forgiveness from Mr. Parker?

But why… why does Dad seem to be… defending Lucas now?
