THE FORMIDABLE SON-IN-LAW: THE CHARISMATIC LUCAS GRAY - Season 3 Episode 69

Seeing William mercilessly exposing many of her secrets from the past and the look of disappointment in Cheyenne’s and Charlotte’s eyes, Karen immediately felt a little flustered.

“Cheyenne, Charlotte, these are all just lies that William Carter made up to deceive you! I’m your mother. How could I have mistreated you? Even if I was negligent when I took care of you two in the past, it was just an understandable mistake. I didn’t do it on purpose!” Karen said anxiously.

But when she saw her daughters still staring at her heartbrokenly, she was furious and ashamed. She then yelled at William, “William Carter, what intentions are you harboring?! I raised both our daughters to adulthood, and yet you’re making things up now to drive a wedge between me and them!

“Are you thinking of sucking up to your daughters now that they are old enough to support you? I’m no longer of any use to you, right? You’re so evil and vicious. Why exactly are you doing this to me?!”

While speaking, she reached out to scratch William’s face.

William blocked Karen’s hand and sneered. “You know better than I do whether or not I made up those facts just to sow discord!”

With that, he directly stood up and left the dining table to return to his own room, not giving Karen a chance to throw a fit at all.

There were many rooms in this villa that Lucas bought. Since William returned yesterday, Karen hadn’t asked him anything about his two-week absence or shown him any concern, which was very much to his disappointment. Thus, he chose to stay in an empty room to be away from her.

After William left, Karen again desperately pulled Cheyenne’s and Charlotte’s hands while weeping miserably and lamenting about how hard it had been for her to keep the family together while raising the both of them. She anxiously tried to convince them not to believe William’s words by claiming that he was lying.

But Cheyenne and Charlotte were now absolutely disappointed in Karen. They were no longer children and could tell right from wrong, so they had already come to a conclusion about who was lying based on their own judgment.

They didn’t want to listen to Karen’s explanations, nor were they in the mood to continue eating. They struggled to break free from Karen and then carried Amelia upstairs.

Soon, only Karen and Lucas were left in the spacious dining room.

Lucas glanced at Karen coldly. He wasn’t even aware of many of the incidents that William had just mentioned. Although his mother had died at a young age due to her severe illness, she had always exerted her utmost effort to teach him to be an upright person.

Lucas almost dared not imagine that Karen, who was likewise a mother, would have such a horrid personality.

Karen’s actions and behavior made her unworthy of being a mother at all.

After glaring at her coldly, he stood up and turned around to leave the dining room.

“Hold it!” Seeing that everyone was ignoring her, Karen got increasingly furious, and she flew into a rage. She scurried to Lucas and stopped in front of him before raising her hand to slap him. “You’re the reason for everything that just happened, you good-for-nothing!”

Karen had always been uncouth and tyrannical. She was clearly the one who started stirring up trouble and accusing Lucas while everyone was enjoying the meal just now, which eventually led to William’s decision to expose her lies and the shameless acts she had committed in the past! Yet she refused to admit that it was her mistake and even put the blame on Lucas.

She dared to do so only because Lucas was her son-in-law, who wouldn’t contradict her or hit her back whenever she berated and even hit him. So she had developed the habit of putting the blame on him for everything and venting her anger on him.

Just as she was about to slap Lucas, he raised his hand and firmly grabbed Karen’s wrist.

With an icy cold gaze in his eyes, Lucas said indifferently, “You’re Cheyenne’s mother, so I’m being tolerant to you for her sake. But that doesn’t mean that I’ll keep letting you trample all over me!

“Also, this villa belongs to me, and no matter how it came about, my name is written on the title deed. This is the home I’ve prepared for my wife, her family, and our daughter. If you behave yourself and stop stirring trouble, I won’t bother with you. But if you continue to wreak havoc at home every other day, you’d better get lost from here before it’s too late!”

Then he stopped looking at Karen and turned around to leave.

Lucas was harsh with his words this time.

In fact, it was the first time he had given Karen such a stern warning throughout the years that he had been married to Cheyenne.

Karen was so stunned by Lucas’s words that it took her a long time to react and realize what he meant. She flew into a rage and was fuming mad.

Bang!

Staring at Lucas’s back as he headed upstairs, Karen clenched her jaw with all her might while she grimaced and grabbed her bowl to smash hard against the ground. “Lucas Gray, how dare you speak to me like that? I must make you pay the price for it!”

When Lucas walked into the room, Cheyenne was sitting on the edge of the bed and wiping her tears while Amelia sat beside her sensibly. Wiping Cheyenne’s tears with a piece of tissue paper, Amelia said softly, “Mommy, don’t cry. Your eyes will hurt.”

Lucas sighed. Cheyenne is really unlucky to have a mother like Karen.

He walked over, took his lovely daughter into his arms, and patted Cheyenne’s back to console her.

Cheyenne raised her head and looked at Lucas, only to have tears flow out of her eyes again. Gazing at him apologetically, she said, “I’m sorry. Mom has always been so harsh to you, and we had the wrong idea about you for such a long time.”

Lucas shook his head. “We are a family. You don’t need to apologize to me. Besides, Karen is your mother, and you don’t have to apologize to me for her misdeeds. Take it easy. Some people just don’t care much for kinship. Don’t take it to heart.”

After Cheyenne heard his comforting words, she felt touched and aggrieved and cried even more miserably.

“Uh…” Lucas was suddenly at a loss for what to do.

“It’s okay. I’ll be fine in a while.” Then Cheyenne hurriedly rushed into the bathroom, and soon, the sound of water gushing out of the faucet came.

“Ugh.” Lucas covered his forehead and let out a low sigh.

He had always been domineering and powerful. But whenever he faced the woman he loved, he often felt powerless and clueless about what to do.

Just now, he clearly wanted to comfort Cheyenne, but he ended up causing her to weep even more, which was truly terrible.

The intelligent and powerful captain of the Falcon Regiment was too inexperienced in dealing with women.

“Daddy,” Amelia called out and suddenly raised her head while laying in Lucas’s arms. She blinked and said, “Daddy, hug and kiss mommy later! She would hug me, kiss me, and comfort me whenever I cried, and that made me not want to cry anymore!”

“…”

Caught between laughter and tears, Lucas pinched Amelia’s little nose while thinking to himself that if he had done that to Cheyenne, she might stop crying, but she’d definitely beat him up and kick him out of the room!
