The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 996

Chapter 996 - Situation Reversal

Now, Lucas had defeated all the men around Jace. Facing Lucas, who was full of a murderous aura, he couldn’t help feeling immense fear.

In fact, Jace’s father, Michael, had called him a long time ago to warn him not to harm Lucas’s loved ones and even more so not to provoke Lucas because he was even more terrifying than Jace could imagine.

But Jace didn’t want to listen to him at all because he felt that Michael was just scaring him to protect Lucas, his illegitimate son. So he hung up before Michael could finish speaking and even refused to answer his subsequent calls.

But even after watching Lucas knock out his five gunmen and four bodyguards in just a few seconds with his very own eyes, Jace finally believed what Michael said.

Michael had long known how terrifying Lucas was, but when he tried to warn Jace, the latter simply ignored him and hung up on him!

But Jace also knew very well that even if he hadn’t hung up on Michael, he wouldn’t have believed how terrifying Lucas was.

Only after witnessing this scene with his own eyes did Jace realize that he was worlds apart from Lucas!

Jace was now naturally panic-stricken, but at the thought of the other chip he had, he was slightly relieved.

Forcing himself to remain calm, he threatened, “Lucas Gray, don’t forget that your sister-in-law is still in my hands. How dare you harm my people now? Aren’t you afraid that your sister-in-law will immediately turn from a beauty to a corpse with just a phone call from me?”

Jace didn’t believe Lucas would ignore that Charlotte’s life was in danger since he had knelt for her just now!

Lucas sneered. “Imbecile! Jace Hutton, what do you think I’ve been holding back and playing this boring game with you for such a long time when I obviously have the power to kill the people around you in seconds?”

Why?

Jace immediately froze.

Indeed, Lucas clearly had the ability to kill all the gunmen and bodyguards around him within seconds and save William, yet he didn’t do so and even knelt under the orders of the old hag Karen. The reason was very simple. Because Charlotte was still in his hands, Lucas didn’t dare to act rashly.

But why did he suddenly dare to take action?

Jace’s face suddenly turned pale. He understood!

Lucas’s aura changed when his phone rang!

Lucas didn’t answer the call, and the caller hung up after the phone rang thrice.

From that moment on, Lucas became extremely aggressive. The next moment, he suddenly shot the person next to him!

Could the phone call have been a signal to him?

Has… has that woman been rescued?

“You… what are you trying to say? That woman is still in my hands, and my people are keeping a close eye on her! She’ll die immediately once I make a call!” Jace began to get flustered, but he was still extremely stubborn.

“Oh, is that so? Try making a call then!” Lucas said teasingly.

Seeing Lucas’s expression, Jace panicked even more. He didn’t have time to worry about Lucas staring at him. He hurriedly took out his phone and made a call. But no one picked up.

Beep… Beep… Beep…

Hearing the beeping for a long time, Jace hung up in panic and called two other numbers, one of which was Karen’s.

But the result was the same. There was no sound except beeping. No one answered.

At this point, Jace finally knew that the subordinates he had arranged to watch Charlotte had all been taken down by Lucas’s people.

He had lost the other bargaining chip that he could use to coerce Lucas!

“Let go! Quickly let go of me! Hey! You bastards, do you know who I am? I work for Jace Hutton, the scion of a top family in DC. How dare you grab me so roughly? Mr. Hutton will definitely skin you alive when he finds out!

“Hey, I told you to let go of me! Are you deaf… Ah!”

Suddenly, a sharp and shrill sound came from the bottom floor of the abandoned hospital. It sounded like a shrew arguing.

As soon as he heard that voice, Lucas knew that it belonged exclusively to Karen.

It seemed that the person he wanted had already arrived.

Soon, Stanley led a middle-aged woman with disheveled hair to the door of the room. This woman was none other than Karen!

“Lucas, she’s here!” Stanley said to Lucas respectfully.

Both of Karen’s hands were secured firmly behind her back with a rope as she was pushed all the way over by Stanley. She was incredibly resentful.

Right after she stood firm, she saw Lucas and Jace next to her.

But because she was standing right at the door, she couldn’t see much of what was inside.

At this moment, Karen seemed to find her backer and immediately vented all her resentment against Lucas. “Lucas Gray, you bastard! You jinx! You evil thing, you should be banished to hell!

“If you hadn’t appeared, I wouldn’t have ended up in this state and suffered so much in prison!

“You damn thing, I couldn’t kill you previously, but Mr. Hutton is the scion of one of the eight top families in DC. Now that he’s my backer, he will definitely help me to torture you and kill you. He will rip you into shreds!

“Once you die, William Carter must die too! Those two bitches Cheyenne and Charlotte are so loyal to you that they’ve turned their backs on me, their mother! In that case, they both have to die as well! Let them be Mr. Hutton’s playthings, and once he’s sick of them, he can do whatever he wants with them!

“And the companies, mansions, jewelry, and money you leave behind will all be mine! Haha, Lucas Gray, hurry up and go to hell!”

Karen guffawed hysterically.

The reason she had been sent to prison by Lucas was that she wanted to live in Lucas’s Pearl Lake villa and thus tried to kill William, who was getting in her way. But she didn’t expect the murderer she had hired to fail to kill William and eventually cause her to be imprisoned.

But now, as long as Lucas died, she could have everything she had hoped for since the beginning. The thought of it made her ecstatic, and she had long forgotten about kinship, shame, morals, and so on.

Seeing the way Karen was at the moment, Lucas only felt sad.

Cheyenne and Charlotte were both great people. Lucas truly felt sad for them for having such a terrible mother like Karen.
