The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 960

Chapter 960 - Come To DC

Soon, the dedicated medical team hired by the Howards hurried over, sent Felix to the treatment room, and carried out emergency rescue on him.

The rest of the Howards learned of the news, rushed over, and crowded around the door.

Ten minutes later, the attending doctor came out of the treatment room with a look of dejection and said to the Howards with difficulty, “I’m very sorry. We’ve tried our best, but Mr. Howard has passed away!”

Boom!

This news was like a massive thunderbolt that immediately stunned all the Howards in place.

Felix was dead!

“Father!” Florence immediately let out a grief-stricken cry and staggered to the floor!

She initially thought that she had long since lost all feelings for her father.

She thought she no longer cared about him after he treated her as a pawn, killed her lover, manipulated her life at will, and chose to leave her in the lurch when she was on the brink of death.

But after hearing about his sudden death, she realized how much pain and misery she was in.

“Father…”

“Grandpa!”

“Mr. Howard…”

The Howards immediately started wailing in grief and agony.

Standing away from the crowd, Lucas looked at the situation from afar and then left the Howard residence with Jordan.

He didn’t have any affection for Felix at all, so he wouldn’t stay here to watch them cry in grief.

In the car on the way back to the DC Hotel, Jordan suddenly asked, “Lucas, although Damien, the chief of the Peerless Martial Association’s US headquarters, is very powerful, and he’s much stronger than me, he’s no match for you. Why… why did you let him go?”

Sitting in the back seat, Lucas said, “Because he’s a smart person and very good at judging the situation. I reckon he must have guessed some details about my origin. That’s why he restrained his killing intent and took the initiative to give me an out. I’d like to give someone like him a chance.

“Besides, if I really killed him, I would form a deadly feud with the Peerless Martial Association. Although I’m not afraid of them, there are even more powerful people in the Peerless Martial Association. If they wanted to harm the other people around me, it would be an unpreventable disaster.

“Taking a step back and making concessions when appropriate will allow us to avoid trouble sometimes. Isn’t that good?”

Jordan smiled and nodded, but he suddenly said, “Lucas, you didn’t use to compromise in the past. You’ve changed greatly since we were in the Falcon Regiment.”

With an emotional gaze in his eyes, Lucas said slowly, “The situation is different. Now, there are many people around me that I have to protect. I don’t want to get them implicated.”

After a moment of silence, Jordan agreed with a smile. “Lucas, you’re right. Things are indeed different when there are people you worry about and need to protect.”

When the two of them returned to the Hotel, it was almost midnight.

Recalling the promise he had made to Cheyenne, Lucas took out his phone and called her.

As soon as he finished dialing her number, she immediately picked up. Clearly, Cheyenne had been holding her phone and waiting anxiously for news from him.

“Lucas, are you alright?” Cheyenne asked as soon as she spoke.

Lucas felt a warm and fuzzy feeling in his heart.

His wife had been holding her phone and worried about him during this period of time. How could he not be touched?

“I’m alright, and she’s fine too. Don’t worry!” Lucas smiled.

After making sure that Lucas and Florence were both safe and sound, Cheyenne finally heaved a huge sigh of relief.

“It’s great that you’re alright! Honey, thank you so much!” Cheyenne said gratefully.

“We’re married. You don’t need to thank me.” Lucas smiled.

But then he thought about Felix and decided to tell Cheyenne about him with a solemn expression. “Cheyenne, there’s something I need to tell you. Felix Howard passed away half an hour ago.”

No matter what, Cheyenne was still Felix’s granddaughter, so Lucas felt that she had the right to know about this matter.

“…” Cheyenne fell silent for a while.

Although she had yet to acknowledge Florence and didn’t have any plans to return to the Howards, she knew that Felix was her grandfather.

Although the two had never met, there was no way they could cut off their blood ties.

Moreover, Cheyenne still felt a little sad for this elder of hers who had suddenly passed away before they even met.

Lucas knew that Cheyenne had always been an extremely kind person. After learning that her grandfather suddenly passed away, she obviously wouldn’t remain unmoved.

“Cheyenne, come to DC tomorrow to send him off,” Lucas said considerately.

“Okay, I’ll take a flight to DC tomorrow morning!” Cheyenne said sobbingly after making up her mind.

At 10 a.m. the next morning, a plane from Orange County landed safely at an airport in DC.

Cheyenne walked out of the airport, clad in an all-black outfit and carrying a small suitcase.

Although she had yet to return to the Howard family to acknowledge her roots and ancestors, Felix was still her grandfather. So wearing black was considered a form of respect for the deceased.

Dressed in black, Cheyenne looked prettier than usual. And with her eyes slightly red and mournful, she was extremely eye-catching.

Cheyenne, who was immersed in the grief of her elder passing, was naturally not in the mood to bother about the gazes of those around her. She just kept her head lowered and walked out of the airport.

“Adam, quick, look at that woman. She’s gorgeous!”

In the airport lobby, a languid-looking young man kept his eyes fixed on Cheyenne when he inadvertently saw her walking over from a nearby spot. He didn’t move at all and shouted excitedly at the scion of another wealthy family next to him.

The young man named Adam seemed doubtful at first, and he even mocked, “Hah, you’ve worked for me for so long. What kind of woman haven’t you seen before? Must you make such a fuss…”

While speaking, he turned his head to glance in the direction the young man was pointing.

This glance immediately left him speechless, and a look of amazement appeared in his eyes.

A few seconds later, Adam said lustfully, “Tsk, punk, you really have great judgment. This woman is indeed gorgeous!”

Cheyenne didn’t notice these two harboring designs on her from the moment they saw her, nor did she notice that they were already walking toward her.

“Hey, gorgeous!”

She was making her way out of the airport lobby when the two young men stopped in front of her with overly enthusiastic looks on their faces.
