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

Chapter 714: Great Acting Chops

Although this idea sounded a bit absurd at first, the more Edmund thought about it, the more he felt that it was likely.
The way he looked at Lucas became fiery as he felt the blood in his body surging.

After being rebuked by Lucas, Vince was in a terrible mood.

Even in DC, where numerous wealthy and powerful families gathered, no one had ever belittled Vince, much less in California.
Yet a junior like Lucas actually had the guts to tell him to his face that he wasn’t qualified to interrupt.

It was really rare!

Vince narrowed his eyes and said sneeringly, “Hah, you’re just an abandoned child kicked out by the Huttons.
But you’re really arrogant! Even your father doesn’t dare to speak to me like that!”

What he said immediately caused an uproar in the venue.

“What? What did Mr.
Smith just say? He said that Lucas Gray is actually a Hutton? The Huttons who are one of the top eight families in DC?”

“I didn’t expect Lucas Gray to be a Hutton! No wonder he’s so confident and dares to fight against the Walkers and even kill one of them! No wonder he’s so overbearing even when facing the Smiths!”

“Yes! No wonder Damon Parker, Bruce Hale, and that group are standing firm on his side and would rather be at odds against the Kingstons and the Walkers than give him up! They must have known a long time ago that Lucas Gray is a Hutton.
With the Huttons’ help, the Kingstons and the Walkers indeed don’t pose any threat to him!”

“But Vince Smith said that Lucas Gray is an abandoned child kicked out by the Huttons.
What does that mean?!”

Everyone began discussing Lucas’s identity as a Hutton.
It was big news!

But Lucas turned a deaf ear to all these discussions.

Although he had always refused to admit his identity as a descendant of the Huttons and had never leveraged their power, these were private matters between him and the Huttons.
He didn’t want to explain it to so many people.

He merely looked at Vince and said indifferently, “It’s my business how I wish to speak.
You just need to know that as long as I’m here, you’re destined to fail!”

Vince wanted to make all of California his turf and let the Smiths do whatever they wanted.
But Lucas would definitely not allow it!

“Haha!” Vince sneered.
“Okay then, I won’t mention anything else to you now.
Let’s talk about how my son Roy actually died! Lucas Gray, don’t you think you owe me an explanation for this?”

His words were once again like a heavy bomb thrown into the water, causing the guests in the venue, who had just calmed down, to get into an uproar again.

Does Vince Smith mean that his son’s sudden death has something to do with Lucas Gray?

In other words, did his son also die at the hands of Lucas?

How daring is he?

When Vince said this, Wendy, who had been sitting quietly at his side, suddenly had her pupils constrict while a trace of panic appeared on her face.
She quickly restored her composure and even made herself seem angry and sad.

Lucas sneered.

If Wendy were an actress, she’d probably win an award or two.
She was pretending as if there was really such a thing.

Those unaware of the situation would think that she was devastated about her nephew’s death!

“A smart person like you should know how exactly your son died, Mr.
Smith,” Lucas said with raised brows and then shifted his gaze onto the person beside Vince.
“Mrs.
Smith, what do you think?”

Wendy’s heart skipped a beat, but she still said with extreme sadness, “Lucas Gray, you’re so young but so ruthless! How exactly did my nephew offend you? Why did you have to be so ruthless to him?

“My nephew was still so young.
He was only twenty-seven years old this year.
Even if he did something wrong, it was just a conflict between young people.
You can’t just kill him!”

As soon as she finished speaking, many people who were still speculating immediately confirmed it.

“Oh my God, it turns out that Vince Smith’s son was really killed by Lucas Gray!”

“That’s incredible! Is Lucas Gray out of his mind? Even if he’s a descendant of the Huttons, the Smiths are also one of the eight giants of DC.
Isn’t he afraid of causing a conflict between the Smiths and the Huttons?

“Didn’t Vince just say that Lucas has already been kicked out by the Huttons? They probably don’t acknowledge him as a member of the family.
In that case, he’s no longer a Hutton.
Yet he dared to kill Vince’s son.
He’s really daring! Tsk tsk!”

“Impressive.
How impressive! I just came to the Elite Business Exchange today to watch the fun, but I didn’t expect to hear such shocking news.
It seems I didn’t make a wasted trip!”

Perhaps because it was human nature to gossip and enjoy drama, especially when the drama had nothing to do with them, everyone could relax and watch the fun without any fear.

The Elite Business Exchange, which was originally only an exchange between top families, had already become a competition between Lucas and Vince.

The others, including the three top families of San Francisco, were not qualified to intervene.

Lucas looked at Wendy, who was very engaged in her act, and suddenly said to Vince, “This woman’s acting skills are really great.
Don’t you think so?”

Vince said indifferently, “She is my family member.
Am I supposed to believe you over her? You’re too inexperienced to be playing the trick of sowing discord in front of me!”

Lucas laughed.
“It seems that you’re pretty good at deceiving yourself and others.”

“I don’t understand what you mean by that.” Vince narrowed his eyes.

“Forget it if you can’t understand.
But I don’t have the patience to accompany you two in your drama here.”

Lucas stopped smiling and said indifferently, “If you must blame me for your son’s death, suit yourself.
If you want to use the opportunity to deal with me, it’s up to you.
But if you expect me to be afraid of you, then you’re mistaken..
Don’t be a smart aleck and end up suffering the consequences of your actions because your plan backfired!”
