THE FORMIDABLE SON-IN-LAW: THE CHARISMATIC LUCAS GRAY - Season 1 Episode 18

When Dominic fell, everyone immediately put the blame on Cheyenne.

“Cheyenne, have you long been upset with Mr. Carter Senior, so you deliberately got your husband to come and provoke him?”

“Do you think the Brilliance Corporation will become yours after you anger Old Master and drive him away?”

“Like I said, they’re a family of ingrates. They’ve got such vicious intentions!”

…

The numerous scoldings were like daggers stabbing into Cheyenne’s heart.

She had given so much to the family in the past, only to receive such criticism now.

Dominic took two sips of water and got a grip on himself before glaring at Cheyenne, his eyes full of disgust.

“No matter what, you are largely responsible for the state that the Carters are in today. We must clinch a cooperation agreement with the Stardust Corporation. You either marry Seth Miller and let us join forces with his family, or go and settle the cooperation agreement with Stardust Corporation yourself. Otherwise, you’ll no longer have a place in the Carter family.”

Cheyenne had a bitter look of dismay on her face.

Bryce had asked for five hundred thousand dollars for operational funds and had even proposed that she get married to Seth Miller in order to make his plan somewhat feasible. How could she clinch the cooperation agreement all by herself?

“Okay, we’ll go and get the cooperation agreement settled. Mr. Carter, I hope you will keep to your word,” Lucas suddenly said.

Everyone looked at Lucas like he was a lunatic.

Does this good-for-nothing not understand how difficult it will be to clinch a cooperation agreement with the Stardust Corporation?

“Wait…” Cheyenne was about to speak when Bryce quickly interrupted her.

“Your loser husband promised it himself, so don’t blame us for forcing you!” Bryce grinned smugly and looked at Dominic. “Right, Grandpa?”

“Good. Since you took it on yourselves, don’t blame me for being merciless if you fail to complete the task. You have two days to get the contract signed. If you fail, you and your family can scram!”

Everyone looked at them gloatingly, and they immediately started mocking them as soon as Dominic left.

“How ignorant. If it’s that easy to clinch a cooperation agreement with the Stardust Corporation, I would have become the general manager a long time ago.” Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update

“Hah, some people just don’t have any self-awareness. I’m afraid they won’t even be able to enter the Stardust Corporation office!”

“You only have two days. I think you’d better not go to such lengths. I suggest you go home, pack up, and get ready to get lost.”

Bryce’s face was full of smugness as he left with a bunch of people behind him.

“Why did you agree?”

As soon as Lucas lowered his head, he was greeted with Cheyenne’s furious little face.

“I’m actually…” Just as Lucas was about to speak, she gave him a hard and loud slap on his face!

“It’s all your fault! Why did you agree…” After slapping Lucas, Cheyenne broke down and burst into tears.

The anger in Lucas’s chest suddenly vanished amid her tears.

“Do you know how difficult this task is? Do you know that they can’t wait for me to fail to secure a contract and then drive me away?” Cheyenne was crying with immense despair and misery.

Looking at her, Lucas was heartbroken and distressed. He said softly, “Don’t worry. I’ll help you.”

Cheyenne suddenly raised her head and stared at him with bloodshot eyes. “How are you going to help me? Do you know people at the Stardust Corporation? Do you know how to build connections and sign contracts? You don’t know anything. How can you help me?!”

She pushed Lucas away and left staggeringly.

Lucas followed her quietly until he saw that she had safely returned to the Carter residence before leaving bitterly.

As soon as Cheyenne entered, Karen approached her. “I heard that good-for-nothing made a scene at the office today. What happened? Did he cause any trouble? Why didn’t you keep an eye on him?! Who is he to enter the Carter family?”

Cheyenne waved her hand in fatigue. “I’m exhausted, Mother. Stop asking.”

“Hah. You’re so half-hearted when you answer my questions. You think you’re so good now, huh?”

Cheyenne was extremely annoyed and frustrated.

Her grandfather said that she had to clinch a contract within two days. She was now pressed for time to complete this task that was almost impossible to complete. She was so troubled that she felt that her head was about to explode.

If she didn’t sign a contract in two days, her family would be kicked out of the Carter family. If her mother found out, she would definitely kick up a big fuss.

“I still have something to do. I’m going to leave now. Please ask Charlotte to pick Amelia up at the kindergarten later.”

Cheyenne hurriedly washed her face, touched up her makeup, perked herself up, and then dashed out the door.

Time was running out, and she had to hurry up and see the helmsman of the Stardust Corporation. Even though the chances of success were low, she had to do her best.

Soon, a metallic red Lamborghini pulled over at the door, and Charlotte got out furiously.

“Where’s my sister?” she asked as soon as she entered the house.

“Your sister went out. Oh yes, she wants you to help her pick up Amelia later.” Karen was sitting on the couch and putting some cucumber slices on her face while she was talking.

Charlotte yanked her mother’s arm and barked, “Mom! Now’s not the time for a facial!”

She was so angry that her face turned red. “Mom, you have no idea. That loser came to the office today and provoked Grandpa. He even audaciously took on the task of clinching a cooperation agreement with the Stardust Corporation! So many families in Orange County are dying to get acquainted with it. Who are we? This task is impossible to complete!”

“That good-for-nothing is really brazen to have agreed. I’ll give him a piece of my mind when he comes again!” Karen was also infuriated after hearing her words. That good-for-nothing is really a troublemaker who’s bad at everything.

“Mom, the worst is yet to come. Grandpa said that he’s going to kick all of us out of the Carter family if they fail to clinch the contract in two days!”

“What?!” Karen screamed and stood up abruptly, completely ignoring the cucumber slices falling onto the ground.
