The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 354 – Give You An Explanation

Chapter 354: Give You An Explanation

As the most outstanding heir of the Hales and the most promising successor, Bruce had long decided to make Connor the next helmsman.

In other words, after Bruce passed away or stepped down from his position as the head of the family, Connor would be the one to take over.

Thus, Connor wasn’t someone that could be offended!

But just now, Connor seemed to have heard what Daniel said and even hollered at him. Now, there was huge trouble!

Daniel was full of panic while thinking about how to make up for it. But Connor pushed him away, walked straight toward Lucas, and said respectfully, “Mr. Gray, I’m very sorry. I was late and couldn’t receive you in time. Please forgive me!”

Lucas was a little bewildered. He had just given Bruce a call less than two minutes ago, yet Connor was already here in front of him, which was really quick.

Seemingly having seen through Lucas’s doubts, Connor hurriedly explained, “I happened to be downtown today for a meeting with a client. I just received Grandpa’s call, so I rushed here immediately!”

There was still some cold sweat on his forehead. God knows how frightened he was when Bruce called him just now to say that Lucas had encountered some trouble in the downtown area close to where he was!

Since the previous incident in the Hale residence, followed by the death of Logan Hale, Connor had been full of scruples and fear toward Lucas. He was afraid that he might accidentally offend him.

Since Connor had arrived, Lucas said, “Have you checked this man’s profile?”

He was naturally referring to the matter of Daniel claiming to be a business manager of the Feather Corporation.

Connor glanced at Daniel, who was drenched in sweat, and said with disgust, “This person’s father, Elias Devine, is indeed a business manager of the Feather Corporation, but Daniel Devine has nothing to do with the Hales!

“This man was just using the Hales’ authority to throw his weight around and act tyrannically. I’ll definitely give you an explanation, Mr. Gray!”

Thud!

After Daniel heard what Connor said, his face paled. He could no longer hold back as his legs went limp, and he fell on his knees immediately.

Seeing how subservient Connor was to Lucas, Daniel could tell that something was amiss.

Lucas clearly had a higher status than Connor!

Lucas Gray wasn’t acting on the phone! Feeling as if he had been struck by an immense blow, Daniel was full of regret and wished that he could turn back time to more than ten minutes ago so that he could strangle himself to death! What have I done?!

Lucas didn’t bother to pay attention to Daniel. Instead, he said, “I’ll leave everything here to you then. I’ll get going now.”

Connor hurriedly said, “Yes, Mr. Gray. Don’t worry. I will handle it well! Take care!”

He bent forward slightly and only straightened his back again when he saw Lucas leave with Cheyenne hand in hand.

Connor’s respectful and deferential attitude made everyone else around him astonished.

As an esteemed direct descendant and the successor of the Hales, Connor was a powerful figure in Orange County. The fact that he was so subservient toward Lucas made them inevitably wonder how terrifying Lucas was!

Unfortunately, Lucas had already left, and they didn’t dare to ask Connor about Lucas’s identity.

As for Rachelle and Daniel, who had claimed earlier that Lucas was a penniless good-for-nothing and a freeloading live-in son-in-law who had gotten embroiled in a scandal with Cheyenne, they now seemed like fools in the eyes of the people around them. Everyone merely thought of their words as nonsense.

Connor glanced at the troublemaker Daniel with great disgust and said coldly, “Notify the human resource department of the Feather Corporation to dismiss Elias Devine immediately!”

Daniel’s body trembled violently, and he hurriedly crawled forward. He then hugged Connor’s calf and pleaded, “Mr. Connor, I know I was wrong! I shouldn’t have used the Hales’ status and assumed my father’s position to spout nonsense! I won’t dare to do it again. Please don’t dismiss my father. He doesn’t know anything about this and has nothing to do with it!”

Connor kicked Daniel away and said with disgust, “It’s his mistake to have failed to take his son in hand and let you lie to others that you’re in the position that he holds! Also, I’m going to warn you one last time. If you’ve merely offended the Hales, you might have a chance to survive. But you’re digging your own grave by offending Mr. Gray!”

Connor was not only warning Daniel but also everyone else present.

After hearing what Connor said, everyone in the store seemed horrified because he clearly meant that Lucas had a higher status than the Hales!

Daniel collapsed onto the ground in despair.

Connor’s words were undoubtedly the nail in the coffin of the decision to have his father dismissed from the company. No one could change it!

His father was the sole breadwinner of the family, and the high income he earned as a business manager of the Feather Corporation was the reason the family could live in luxury. Once his father was dismissed by the Hales, it would be impossible for him to find another well-paying job in Orange County.

If that happened, their livelihood would be gone, and Daniel would have no means to pay for the mortgage and loan of the house and car that his father had just bought for him!

Daniel completely slipped into despair, and he was even more worried that his father might break his legs after finding out that he was the troublemaker!

Rachelle’s heart was ricocheting, and she was so nervous that she couldn’t even breathe. Only after Connor left did she relax completely and sit down beside Daniel dejectedly.

“How is it possible… Her husband is clearly a lowly chauffeur and a good-for-nothing who sponges off her…” Rachelle muttered to herself like she was in a trance.

After hearing her voice, Daniel suddenly flew into a rage and slapped Rachelle hard on her face. “It’s all your fault, you bitch! If you hadn’t gone to stir trouble and spout nonsense, how could I have ended up offending Mr. Gray? Great. Now you’ve caused my father to lose his job! I’m going to beat you to death, you jinx!”

Daniel had a menacing expression as he vented all his anger on Rachelle by punching and kicking her mercilessly. He hit Rachelle so hard that she placed her arms over her head and screamed loudly while begging for mercy.
