MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 4 - Season 5 Episode 97

Grace recognized Ethan to be the biggest boss of the restaurant and immediately greeted, “Mr. Sawyer!”

Lucas smiled slightly and pointed to Grace as he introduced, “Her name is Grace, and she once saved my daughter.”

Ethan and Lena were both greatly surprised.

They both thought that there might be some other relationship between the beautiful Grace and Lucas. But they didn’t expect that Grace had saved Amelia.

It was no wonder that Lucas had helped her just now and had even forced Gisele to slap herself ten times in the face in order to help her get justice.

Lena’s heartstrings, which were tensed up, suddenly eased up as a smile bloomed on her face.

“So you once saved Amelia. That’s great!” Lena said smilingly as she held Grace’s hand.

Grace felt a little embarrassed. “Actually… I didn’t help Amelia with anything. I’m not really considered her savior.”

Lucas said firmly, “You helped Amelia, and you did indeed save her life.”

He deliberately said this for the Sawyers to hear.

Although he didn’t know why, Grace was now working in Ethan’s restaurant after all. If he said the reason, Ethan might value Grace even more.

Lena asked curiously, “Miss Keller, why are you working in our family’s restaurant? Ah, I don’t mean to offend you, but I just feel a little curious. With your looks and capabilities, surely you should be able to find a more suitable job, right?”

Lucas was also a little curious because Grace was definitely capable of more than just being a waitress.

Grace seemed a little embarrassed, but she didn’t state the reason.

Since it wasn’t convenient for her to reveal the reason now, the crowd naturally had the awareness not to probe any further.

After looking at Grace, Ethan suddenly asked, “Miss Keller, since you are the savior of Mr. Gray’s daughter, it’d be such a waste for you to be just a waitress! How about this? It just so happens that I have to replace a batch of service staff now. From today onward, you’ll be the general manager of this restaurant!”

Naturally, Grace was extremely surprised and hastily declined.

But Ethan’s attitude was extremely resolute, and Lucas didn’t object either, so the matter was thus settled.

…

In a luxurious private room on the top floor of the Lion Restaurant…

Lucas, Ethan, and Lena were sitting around the large round table, on which was a spread of specialty dishes of the Lion Restaurant. There were also two bottles of fine wine that had been stored in the cellar for several years.

Ethan was the one who invited Lucas here for dinner tonight. And if he hadn’t been held up along the way due to a traffic jam, Lucas probably wouldn’t have gotten involved in that altercation.

Ethan poured a glass of wine, brought it to Lucas, and bowed. He then poured another glass for himself and sincerely thanked him. “Mr. Gray, I invited you here today mainly to express my gratitude to you.

“When Lena suddenly encountered a motorcycle assassination in front of my villa, it was all thanks to you for saving her in time that she managed to survive. A week ago, Lena again met with someone who tried to kill her by running her over with a car, but you happened to be there and rescued her from danger. You’ve saved my daughter’s life twice!

“Moreover, you helped us find the culprit behind the assassinations and brought the evil Owen family to justice! Mr. Gray, I really can’t thank you enough or repay you for the great kindness you’ve done for Lena!”

After toasting Lucas, Ethan downed the full glass of white wine in one go.

Lena also raised a glass of wine with a grateful expression on her face and said with a smile, “Lucas, thank you so much! You’ve truly saved my life. If not for the fact that you’re already married, I would have wanted to give myself to you in thanks!” Lena said jokingly.

Lucas smiled slightly. “You two are being too polite. It’s all just a coincidence. Besides, Miss Lena is Cheyenne’s best friend. I naturally won’t leave her in the lurch.”

Ethan laughed out loud, “Mr. Gray, you coincidentally saved my daughter’s life during both incidents. You two are really fated! Come, I’ll toast you again!”

Although Lena was smiling, she wasn’t genuinely happy. Instead, she seemed a little despondent and resigned. Hah, what am I feeling lost about?

She knew from the start that Lucas had been helping her only because she was Cheyenne’s close friend.

With a self-deprecating smile, Lena raised the glass of wine in her hand and covered the feelings of indignation within her.

Since the time that Lucas had rescued her by pulling her into his arms to save her from the fatal impact of the speeding motorcycle, she found a strong sense of peace in his embrace.

She had never been attracted to any man in the past twenty years of her life, and the only time she fell in love was with her best friend’s husband.

She knew she shouldn’t be doing this, but she couldn’t control her feelings.

Even though she had desperately suppressed these feelings in her heart, she would always think of him from time to time, unable to forget him at all.

About a week or so ago, she had suddenly encountered another crisis in LA that put her life in danger, and Lucas had once again appeared by her side like a deity from heaven. He had once again saved her from the brink of death.

Since then, she could no longer suppress her feelings!

She had suffered two death crises. Lucas had saved her once in Orange County and once in LA, a place they both rarely went to, so she believed that fate had brought them together.

Unfortunately, Lucas cared only about his wife, Cheyenne. He didn’t like her at all.

Even if he helped her, it was only because she was Cheyenne’s best friend.

How pathetic! Lena had a bitter smile.

Both men at the other side of the dining table didn’t notice Lena’s emotions.

Ethan gleefully toasted Lucas while speaking to him.

He had always wanted to find an opportunity to get closer to Lucas, and the meal today was the best opportunity.

After three rounds of toasting, Ethan suddenly said, “That woman from the Taylor family definitely won’t let the matter rest since she got humiliated today. The Taylors are very protective of their children. You have to be careful!”

He continued, “Of course, if the Taylors really dare to deal with you, the Sawyers will be the first to stand by your side. Even if the Sawyers’ lives are at stake, I won’t let the Taylors lay a single finger on you!”

Lucas said with a faint smile, “I don’t take the Taylors seriously, but now, I wish they’ll come looking for trouble with me sooner!”
