THE FORMIDABLE SON-IN-LAW: THE CHARISMATIC LUCAS GRAY - Season 2 Episode 84

Dominic also widened his eyes in shock, totally not expecting this.

He originally thought that Lucas would definitely demolish everything since he had come to take revenge with more than ten excavators! But Lucas actually only demolished Bryce’s villa and spared the rest of the Carters’ villas.

At the thought of this, Dominic felt even more complicated.

Lucas looked at Bryce, whose limbs were broken and was still lying unconscious on the ground, and then at his demolished villa. He then said calmly, “From now on, the Carters and I are even. We will no longer have anything to do with each other.”

With that, Lucas turned around and walked outside of the Carter residence.

When he saw the executives of the Hale enterprises, he paused and said, “I hope I won’t see anyone going against the Carters in the future for my sake.”

The hearts of these executives all skipped a beat. They all understood that Lucas was deliberately saying this to them.

Although they felt that Lucas was still too kind to the Carters, they didn’t dare to disregard his warning. They hung their heads low and chorused in unison, “Please rest assured, Mr. Gray. We understand!”

Lucas nodded at Jordan, who was following him, then got inside his black Jaguar and drove away from the Carter residence.

Jordan followed closely behind and ordered the construction truck and all the excavators to drive away.

The executives of the Hale enterprises outside each got into their own silvery-gray Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle and drove away one after another as well.

Anthony Holmes was the last to leave. Sitting in the backseat, he sneered at Dominic, who was outside the car. “Dominic Carter, take your family in hand, or Mr. Gray will not be so benevolent and let you people off again next time!” He then left.

After the vehicles that had crowded around the entrance of the Carter residence left, the silence was restored. Only the ruined villa and the Carters, who were standing rooted to the ground with peculiar expressions, were left.

Dominic also stood still quietly without moving.

Not only did Lucas not destroy the Carters, but he also warned those in charge of the companies under the Hale family not to deal with them for his sake.

Honestly speaking, Lucas had indeed given them a chance of survival.

Otherwise, if he had demolished their entire residence and allowed those executives to deal with them, they would really have been wiped out.

Only after a long time did Dominic let out a long sigh with a bitter smile on his face. “I’ve lived for almost seventy years, but I didn’t expect that I’m really no match for a young man at the end of the day.”

One of the Carter inched over cautiously and asked, “Dominic, should we engage a construction company to rebuild that villa?”

Dominic thought about it and shook his head resolutely. “No! Let it remain as ruins. No one is allowed to touch it!

“I want all the Carters and future descendants to remember today’s lesson. From now on, all of you have to develop better characters and strive to become better. Don’t… don’t follow in the footsteps of this unfilial grandson Bryce and refrain from offending others. Don’t pretend to be lofty and look down on others condescendingly!”

After seeing how determined Dominic was, the other Carters stopped thinking about sponging off the family and living idly. They also stopped thinking self-righteously that they were prestigious in Orange County.

Today’s incident was an unforgettable lesson for all of the Carters.

Who would have thought that Lucas—whom they had all mocked, humiliated, ridiculed at every turn, and called a good-for-nothing—would now become a mighty figure who possessed enough power to annihilate them easily?

From now on, they would all have to bear in mind this lesson and remember to never underestimate anyone easily!

“Um… Do we send Bryce to the hospital?” Another person came over and asked conscientiously.

After all, Bryce’s limbs were personally crushed by Lucas, who had stated blatantly that he would cripple Bryce.

Dominic sighed, closed his eyes, and said relentlessly, “No, leave him be.”

After saying this, he turned around and walked back to his house without taking another glance at Bryce on the ground.

However, Dominic’s back looked much older and stiffer.

After Lucas finished his affairs with the Carters, he directly drove back to the villa at the center of Pearl Lake.

——

Meanwhile, Cheyenne, Charlotte, and Karen had already arrived at the villa.

The island in the center of the lake was rather large and covered an area of several hectares. There was a majestic European-style palace-style villa standing tall in the middle, enjoying the serenity of the lake.

There was a four-story main villa in the middle of the palace-style villa and two smaller three-story villas on the sides. The design was ingenious, and the villas connected to form a beautiful piece of architecture that resembled a gorgeous castle in a fairytale.

Around the villas, there were outdoor swimming pools, playgrounds, rose gardens, fruit orchards, parking lots, a private dock, yachts, and other amenities. There were also rare greenery and ornaments everywhere. It was obviously the upscale property of a mega-rich tycoon.

Karen was fascinated as she looked all around with a sense of novelty and amazement while exclaiming in awe incessantly. She was also constantly estimating the value of various things.

“Wow! How much does this massive swimming pool cost?

“Look, this street lamp has gems embellishing it! There’s such a huge gemstone. It must be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars, right? But it’s left lying on the street. Isn’t he afraid that someone might steal it?

“Tsk, look at the top of that villa. That gilded villa is so dazzling. Is it plated or pure gold? This must cost a bomb too!”

…

Charlotte was also looking at everything in the dream-like villa with eyes full of amazement. Her heart was full of joy.

She had always known that Lucas wasn’t an ordinary person, but she had never thought that he was actually so wealthy that he could afford such a dreamy villa that occupied an entire lake island!

When Cheyenne opened the door to the villa with the key and stepped inside with the two of them behind her, the opulent decor, exotic treasures, and valuable antique paintings displayed everywhere almost blinded Karen!

“Oh my god! How much does this cost? Oh my gosh, this is the first time in all the years I’ve lived that I’ve seen such a luxurious and splendid house! Is this really our home now?” Karen screamed in euphoria as she spun around in the middle of the hall with her arms outstretched. She then plopped herself onto the soft leather couch in the middle of the living room. As soon as she did, an intense wave of bliss surged in her heart.

“Mom, this is Lucas’s house, not ours,” Cheyenne couldn’t help interjecting when she saw Karen’s behavior.

“No, what is his belongs to you, so this house is ours! Even if you divorce him now, half of this villa will belong to you!” Karen said self-righteously as she lay on the couch comfortably.
