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

Chapter 366 - Mother-in-law’s Maiden Home



Chapter 366: Mother-in-law’s Maiden Home

Bright early next morning, the family of four left their home, dressed to the nines.

Charlotte drove the Lamborghini that Lucas had given her to Golden Garden Estate to pick up William and Karen, while Lucas drove his black Jaguar as usual.

They headed to Cheyenne’s cousin’s home in two cars.

To Lucas’s surprise, Karen’s maiden home was in LA.

So he reckoned he should be able to take some time out to check on the properties acquired from the Brookes that Flynn was in charge of managing.

During this period of time, Flynn had been busy with organizing the companies Lucas acquired from the Brookes, so Lucas had decided to promote Charlotte from the acting general manager to the official general manager. Meanwhile, he had other arrangements for Flynn.

Orange County was only about an hour’s drive away from LA.

Lucas was driving in a relaxed manner because he was familiar with the route, but beside him, Cheyenne was surprised. “Lucas, have you been to LA before?”

There were no outsiders in the car, so Lucas answered honestly with a smile, “Yes, and the Solar Corporation in LA belongs to me now too.”

Cheyenne immediately widened her eyes in shock. “Really? You mean the Solar Corporation that belongs to the Brookes?!”

Lucas smiled quietly and continued to stare at the road ahead of him while driving.

But Cheyenne couldn’t calm down.

The Solar Corporation could be considered one of the most well-known enterprises in LA, and it operated on a large scale and had massive funds. In fact, the power of the Solar Corporation alone was enough to rival a first-rate family.

The Brookes basically relied on the Solar Corporation to become one of the top families in LA.

But a short while ago, rumor had it that the Brookes had offended a mysterious big shot who caused the entire Brooke family to fall. All their businesses had been taken away from them and transferred to someone else while all the family members had left LA without a trace.

At the time, Cheyenne was shocked that such a behemoth had been destroyed just like that. Clearly, nothing in this world was predictable.

But she would have never imagined that the legendary mysterious person who had destroyed the Brookes turned out to be her husband.

All of a sudden, Cheyenne had countless questions for Lucas, such as why he wanted to destroy the Brookes, how and when he did it, and so on.

But after some contemplation, she decided to keep quiet instead of asking him about it.

It was enough for her to know that her husband, Lucas, was powerful but would never bully or plunder others’ properties for no reason.

Soon, under Cheyenne’s directions, they arrived at the entrance of a farmhouse situated between the core city area and the countryside.

It was an extremely spacious farmhouse with two three-story houses adjacent to each other. Although the decor wasn’t considered exquisite, the houses occupied a large area.

There was a large concrete ground in front and a yard in the back, which added up to more than a thousand square feet in area. For those used to living in city apartments that were only a few hundreds of square feet, this place was naturally extraordinarily spacious.

Lucas stopped the car and got out together with Cheyenne and Amelia. Charlotte, Karen, and William had already arrived.

“Cheyenne, Lucas, you guys are here!” Charlotte greeted them with a smile while a couple behind her walked forward together with her.

The lady was about 24 or 25 years old and had thin lips. She was also a little sulky and didn’t seem to be a nice person.

But the man beside her seemed to be an elite. He was clad in an immaculate suit and had his hair combed back neatly. He was also wearing a pair of shiny leather shoes and an expensive Patek Phillipe watch.

As soon as the woman saw Cheyenne, she walked over quickly and hugged her in an exaggerated and dramatic manner. “Cheyenne, I haven’t seen you in a long time. I missed you so much!”

The woman was Nikki Heron, Cheyenne’s cousin, the daughter of Karen’s younger sister.

“Nikki, it’s indeed been a while. Amelia, come greet your Aunt Nikki.”

Amelia greeted Nikki obediently. Nikki immediately grinned and squatted down to hug Amelia. After giving her two pecks on her cheek, she exclaimed, “Amelia, you’re getting prettier and prettier!”

Amelia wasn’t used to Nikki’s affectionate behavior and quickly dodged by retreating backward.

Cheyenne moved her hand toward Lucas and was about to say something, but Nikki immediately acted as if she didn’t see Lucas at all and grabbed Cheyenne’s arm to pull her forward. “Come on, Cheyenne. Let me introduce a friend to you!”

She pulled Cheyenne to the elite-looking man and introduced enthusiastically, “This is my cousin, Cheyenne. Everyone calls her the most beautiful girl in Orange County. She’s pretty, isn’t she?”

She then introduced to Cheyenne, “This is Kenneth, a direct descendant of the Parkers, one of the top families in LA. His family is extremely wealthy, and he graduated from an Ivy League college. He has even recently started his own company called Urban Culture Co., and it’s developing very well. Kenneth is a bona fide affluent CEO of every girl’s dreams!

“Most importantly, Kenneth didn’t establish his company with the help of his family. Just like you, he struck out on his own and became a successful entrepreneur at a young age. If you date each other, you’ll definitely have a lot of common topics to talk about!”

After the introduction, Kenneth extended his hand in a gentlemanly manner and said with a smile, “Hello, Miss Carter. I’ve heard a lot about you. You really are so much more elegant and pretty than I imagined! It’s a pleasure to meet you!”

Cheyenne didn’t shake his hand and instead nodded at him before turning to ask Nikki, “Nikki, is he your boyfriend?”

Nikki immediately seemed embarrassed, and she glanced at Kenneth. With some envy and jealousy, she gibed, “I wish! But Kenneth doesn’t fancy me! Only a beautiful woman like you is worthy of Kenneth.”

She sounded extremely bitter and disgruntled. If she were as pretty as Cheyenne, she would have long tried to woo Kenneth instead of saying nonsense here.

But Cheyenne pretended not to catch what Nikki was driving at and instead wrapped her hands around Lucas’s arm. “Honey, let’s go in to greet Grandpa, Grandma, and my uncles and aunts.”

Lucas nodded. “Okay.”

A fleeting trace of displeasure quickly appeared on Kenneth’s face.

Nikki hurriedly caught up with them and stopped them from entering.

“Cheyenne, all the people invited to the wedding are from our family, so you can go in. But for him…” Nikki pointed at Lucas. “He’s an outsider! No one here wants to see him, so he won’t be allowed inside, lest he becomes an eyesore to everyone and make us feel uncomfortable!”
