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

Chapter 814 - The Only Turning Point

Chapter 814 The Only Turning Point

Pamela was astonished, and her bodyguard immediately charged out in a bid to stop Invincible Phantom Hands. But the bodyguard that she brought was only an ordinary expert, and he was no match for Invincible Phantom Hands. He was flung out after an exchange.

Whoosh!

Pamela looked extremely uneasy and immediately grabbed Lucas’s arm.

In her opinion, Lucas was her Prince Charming, her savior, and he could definitely save her!

Lucas looked down at the person grabbing his arm tightly and said indifferently, “Hello.”

Pamela raised his head with a nervous and pleading look on her face. “Help… help me, Lucas!”

“… If you promise me one thing, I can help you solve the trouble you’re facing,” Lucas said.

“Okay, I promise!” Pamela immediately agreed without thinking or asking what Lucas wanted of her. “As long as you help me solve the trouble, I’ll agree to… anything!” Pamela thought of something and began blushing shyly.

Seeing Lucas step forward and stand in front of Pamela, everyone revealed a trace of puzzlement on their faces. Is Mr. Gray… going to confront the Smiths, one of the eight most powerful families in DC, for the sake of this beautiful woman?

With a threatening look, Oscar snapped, “Kid, are you trying to save the damsel in distress? This is a fight between the Smiths and the Howards. Are you sure you want to intervene?”

Lucas said indifferently, “Aren’t I the person you wanted to deal with the most in the first place? I’ll give you a chance. If you leave Orange County with your people right now, I can spare your life. Otherwise, you’ll never leave Orange County again!”

It was a threat!

A blatant threat!

Everyone in the auction venue was shocked. After a brief moment of dead silence, they got into an uproar.

“Impressive! As expected of Mr. Gray, the Master of California. He’s so domineering! He doesn’t even take the eight top families of DC seriously!”

“Mr. Gray has never taken the Smiths seriously. Have you guys forgotten how he had the guts to force Vince Smith to kneel and apologize in public before he even became the Master of California? He even chased him out of California. Now that Mr. Gray is the overlord of our two states, he’s only going to be even more dauntless!”

“However… the Smiths are still one of the eight great giants of DC after all. They’re a true hegemon. Will Mr. Gray cause a disaster by offending them?”

Most of the people attending the auction were from the powerful families in California, and the majority of them appreciated Lucas’s domineering spirit. But there was also a small number of people who felt worried. After all, Lucas was dealing with the Smiths of DC!

Oscar was utterly infuriated by what Lucas said.

His face turned red, and his entire body felt like it was burning with a raging fire. He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, “Brat, it seems that you won’t know what death is if I don’t teach you a lesson!

“Invincible Phantom Hands, since this punk is so disrespectful to the Smiths, then grant him his death wish!” Oscar said to Invincible Phantom Hands, who was in front of him.

But Invincible Phantom Hands didn’t follow his order and immediately attack Lucas. Instead, he stood in front of Lucas and looked at him cautiously.

Invincible Phantom Hands wasn’t a fool like Oscar, who wasn’t proficient in martial arts. Although Lucas was just standing there indifferently, he felt the aura unique to top-level powerhouses from Lucas’s body.

Although the young man in front of him was only in his twenties, he had impressive battle records. He had first forced the Smiths’ expert protecting Vince into retreating and then defeated Julian York, an expert from the Peerless Martial Association’s headquarters. He then went on to become the overlord of two states.

If he really had to face Lucas, he wasn’t sure if he could kill him.

It was even hard to say who would win and who would lose.

“Punk, the Smiths aren’t people you can mess with, so you’d better not poke your nose too far! Otherwise, you’ll bring a huge disaster upon yourself,” Invincible Phantom Hands said with a grim expression.

If he could, he wanted to try to convince Lucas without fighting him.

“Invincible Phantom Hands, don’t waste your breath on saying so much nonsense with him! I told you to take him down immediately. Didn’t you hear me?

“If you don’t, I will call the helmsman immediately!” Oscar hollered furiously.

He was about to burn with rage. First, Lucas and Pamela had provoked him one after another, and he had just done something foolish and embarrassing. No matter what, he had to defeat Lucas immediately to get his pride back, instead of talking to him! Hearing this, Invincible Phantom Hands merely sighed before charging at Lucas.

Although it was true that he only needed to be responsible for protecting Oscar’s safety, the image of the Smiths was now greatly affected, so he had to obey Oscar’s order.

With a drastic change of expression, Pamela blurted, “Lucas, watch out!”

Although she had long known that Lucas was powerful—he was her beloved man after all — she knew Invincible Phantom Hands’ reputation well. He was indeed a tough opponent for Lucas, and she didn’t know if Lucas could defeat him.

The other people in the auction hall hurriedly retreated toward the corners of the venue when they realized that a fight was about to break out, leaving a large open space in the middle, lest they were affected in the process.

Lucas was indeed powerful, but the powerhouse of the Smiths was just as impressive. Once they fought, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

“Hahahaha, Invincible Phantom Hands, kill him! Once this bastard dies, California and Oregon will belong to the Smiths!” Oscar guffawed menacingly. It was his only shot at regaining his lost pride!

As long as Lucas died, he could use Invincible Phantom Hands to deter the top families of California. At that time, the disgraceful matter he had just done impulsively—bidding for a plot of land at a staggering price but being unable to pay for it-wouldn’t be spread around, let alone be discovered by his family in DC.

Otherwise, once they found out, he would probably suffer the same fate as Vince.

Thus, the matter would be solved once Lucas died!

Seeing that Invincible Phantom Hands had already rushed to Lucas’s front and was about to swing his fist at Lucas, who was still standing still without reacting, Oscar couldn’t help laughing

“Haha, what bullshit overlord of two states? Your reputation is just people blowing—”

Before Oscar could finish, his pupils constricted, and astonishment appeared on his face.

A second before Invincible Phantom Hands was about to strike, Lucas suddenly raised his foot and violently kicked the latter in the chest!

Bang!
