The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 255 – Where Is Your Confidence?

Chapter 255: Where Is Your Confidence?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Lucas ignored the resentment in Tristan’s gaze and stepped on his ankle. “You’re still so arrogant now, huh? It seems you haven’t learned your lesson yet.”

“Ah!” Tristan immediately shrieked in misery as a wave of fear surged in his heart. Lucas seemed to really have no fear of the Parkers and was also capable of doing anything. Now that his bodyguards were incapacitated, he would have to suffer no matter what.

Tristan was extremely furious, but he knew that he was now in a disadvantageous position and had no choice but to suppress his anger, not daring to glower at Lucas. But deep down, he wished he could kill Lucas!

At this moment, Tristan had naturally long forgotten that if he hadn’t come looking for trouble with Lucas, insulted him, and forced him to kneel, Lucas wouldn’t have done this to him.

“I’ve merely taught you a small lesson today. If you’re feeling indignant, feel free to get Charles Parker to come look for me. Also, from now on, if I see you pestering Lena Sawyer again, it won’t be as simple as making you kneel down!”

Lena stood at the side, feeling touched and shocked.

She was shocked that Lucas actually dared to attack Tristan. In her opinion, the Parkers were a top family in LA that held enormous power. Otherwise, her father, Ethan Sawyer, wouldn’t have chosen to let her marry Tristan.

Since Lucas beat up Tristan and his bodyguards, he was clearly going against the Parkers. In that case, the Parkers definitely wouldn’t let him off!

Lena’s understanding of Lucas was limited to the fact that he was Cheyenne’s live-in husband, who came from a poor family and practically struggled with poverty, so much so that he couldn’t even pay for their wedding. This caused Cheyenne to become the laughingstock of everyone in Orange County, so Lena had always had a bad impression of Lucas before.

But since the incident in Little Atlantis City, where Lucas showed extraordinary composure and bravery when gambling against Tony Zander, and the time when Lucas rescued her from the speeding motorcycle outside the Sawyers’ villa, Lena changed her mind about him. She also secretly harbored some designs on him.

Lena had deliberately planned for her and Lucas to have lunch alone together today.

But just because Lena admired Lucas, it didn’t mean that she felt that he was invincible. She wasn’t aware of how wealthy Lucas was, nor did she know about his background. She merely felt that since he was an ordinary person, he definitely wouldn’t stand to gain against the Parkers, who were like a behemoth.

But Lucas beat up Tristan for her sake and even warned him not to pester her again…

Tears welled up in Lena’s eyes as she looked at Lucas intently with a gentle gaze. I mustn’t let go of such an excellent man who’s a hundred times better than a spoiled scion like Tristan Parker!

“Miss Lena, are you alright?” At this moment, Jim Baker, the butler of the Sawyers, hurriedly arrived at the restaurant.

When he received Lena’s call just now, he was almost frightened to death.

Just a short while ago, Lena had just encountered a premeditated assassination, so the Sawyers had been extremely protective of her lately.

But Lena said she had an appointment with a close friend this afternoon and ordered all the bodyguards not to accompany her. Jim wasn’t aware of it at first. So when he received the phone call from her informing him that she didn’t have any bodyguards to protect her, he was immediately stunned and afraid that she might have gotten into some mishap.

But the situation at the restaurant seemed rather bizarre now, as he hadn’t seen any malicious thugs yet. On the contrary, Jim even saw two people whom he didn’t expect to see.

One of them was naturally Lucas, who was standing beside Lena expressionlessly. Jim had seen the Huttons coming to invite Lucas back to their family before, as well as the time when Ethan sent gifts to the Carters to try and get closer to Lucas. He was very familiar with Lucas, this powerful figure.

The other person Jim was shocked to see was Tristan, Lena’s fiancé!

Of course, it actually wasn’t that surprising that Tristan was here. But to Jim’s surprise, Tristan was kneeling on the ground in front of Lucas and Lena!

“This…” All of a sudden, Jim couldn’t figure out what was going on between them, and he couldn’t ask in too much detail since there were so many people around.

Seeing that Jim had already arrived and Tristan had also suffered a loss under Lucas, Lena didn’t want to continue getting involved in a scuffle with him. “Tristan, I’ll tell you one last time. The engagement between us doesn’t count at all, and I won’t marry you. You should go find another girl. Furthermore, if you have any objections, just come at me. Don’t vent your anger on other people who have nothing to do with this!”

Then she stopped looking at Tristan and said to Lucas, “Let’s go.”

Lucas nodded. Soon, both of them left the restaurant together.

Jim glanced at Tristan without saying anything. He merely nodded slightly and left together with Lena.

Behind him, Tristan slowly raised his head and exclaimed with an intense and vicious gaze in his eyes, “I won’t let you two off, you adulterers!”

Only after leaving the restaurant did Lena snap back to her senses and realize that she had been pretending to be drunk before this to get Lucas to send her home. But after Tristan interfered and foiled her plans, she could no longer continue pretending.

Lena simply stopped pretending, stood still, and apologized to Lucas, “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t called you out for lunch today, you wouldn’t have gotten into a conflict with Tristan and even offended him.”

Lucas shook his head. “It’s nothing. I really don’t care about the Parkers. If they’ve learned their lesson and don’t provoke me again, I naturally won’t make things hard for them, but if they refuse to give up and come looking for trouble, they’d better not blame me.”

When Lena heard Lucas’s tone, she felt that he really didn’t take the Parkers seriously. She couldn’t help wondering where he got his confidence from.

After thinking about it for a while, Lena nevertheless gave Lucas some instructions, “You’re just the live-in son-in-law of the Carters. You were lucky to win some money from Tony Zander last time, but the Parkers are really not to be belittled. How about this? If they provoke you again, just let me know, and I’ll ask my father to think of a solution.”

Hearing this, Lucas couldn’t help laughing. But thinking that Lena was just making this suggestion out of good intentions, he nodded casually.

Jim was aware of Lucas’s background and knew that even Ethan had to think of ways to get close to him. In that case, why would Lucas need their help?

Fearing that Lena’s words would upset Lucas, he hurriedly said, “Miss Lena, Mr. Sawyer is afraid that you have gotten into a mishap and is worried sick about you! You’d better go home quickly so that he will be at ease.”

“Alright.” Lena originally wanted to ask Lucas to take her home and invite him to her place for a chat. But when she heard that her father was waiting for her, she could only give up.

“Lucas, I owe you another favor for what happened today. I’ll treat you to a meal again!” Then she got into the car and left grandly together with her bodyguards before Lucas could even say anything.
