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

No matter how surprised Cheyenne was, she hurriedly changed into a decent dress and helped Amelia do so too since the Sawyers’ chauffeur had already arrived downstairs, and Karen had been urging her to hurry up.

Soon, Cheyenne’s parents appeared next to the Bentley with their beautiful daughters and adorable granddaughter.

The chauffeur in the black suit was stunned for a moment. He then hurriedly gestured for the Carters to sit in the back seat of the elongated Bentley.

The Intercontinental Hotel was the most luxurious five-star hotel in Orange County. It was located by the lakeside of Bay Lake and was also right beside the most prosperous business district in Orange County. The hotel belonged to the Sawyers.

At this moment, the main building of the Intercontinental Hotel was fully reserved for the event. And all the prestigious people in the entire county who were invited arrived in luxurious cars, dressed to the nines.

It was the event for comparison between the upper-class echelons, where men would compare their cars, companies, and statuses with each other while women would compare their gowns, jewelry, and spouses.

There were all sorts of judgmental gazes and scrutiny, as well as contemptuous remarks made everywhere at the venue.

In front of the Intercontinental Hotel, Dominic was alighting from a BMW together with Bryce. Compared to the other luxurious cars around, their BMW seemed a little shabby.

At this moment, a Bentley happened to pull over beside them. The doors opened, and Karen stepped out of the luxurious car with a smile on her face.

“Why are you here?” Bryce saw Karen at a glance and rushed forward to question her sternly. They’ve already been kicked out by the Carters, yet they still have the audacity to show up here at this gathering for the upper-class figures of the county!

Karen no longer cared about Dominic Carter. Compared to the Sawyers, the Carters were nothing. Besides, the Carters had already declined greatly after losing the Brilliance Corporation.

“Hey, isn’t this Dominic Carter and his precious grandson? What’s the matter? Were you invited to this banquet too? Forget it. Just take it that we’re kind and gracious enough to let you in on account that we used to be family!” Karen said, pretending to be magnanimous. However, she had a haughty and condescending look on her face.

Infuriated by the look in Karen’s eyes, Bryce hit the roof. This woman used to be like a dog in front of Grandpa and me. How dare she speak to us like this now?!

“Who do you think you are? Let us in? How arrogant! The host of the banquet should be kicking you out first!”

“We are the spotlight of the banquet tonight. The Sawyers are going to announce Ethan Sawyer’s son’s engagement to Charlotte later. You people are just ignorant! Actually, I have to thank you for chasing us out. Otherwise, who can tolerate being pestered by some poor relatives?”

“You must be dreaming, huh? Engagement? How could the Sawyers have taken a liking to your family?” Dominic didn’t believe it at all.

However, Bryce’s heart dropped as he recalled the luxurious Lamborghini he saw at the entrance of Cheyenne’s home previously.

At that time, he was already convinced that they were engaged and was planning to confiscate the betrothal gifts sent by the Sawyers. However, he was interrupted when Lucas suddenly appeared. Next, there was chaos in the family, and Bryce forgot about it for a while. Are… Ethan Sawyer’s son and Charlotte Carter really getting engaged?

Karen loved showing off, especially in front of Dominic, who used to be the head of her family but was now far from comparable to them. She felt that she had to show off in order to vent her anger.

She pointed to the luxury Bentley she just alighted from. “See this? This car was sent by the Sawyers to pick us up and send us here. The Sawyers were generous enough to send us hefty betrothal gifts. They gave us a million in cash alone, as well as a sports car worth several million, a lakeside luxury villa, several Golden Wing International stores, and lots of shares!

“Ah, the Sawyers are so generous and sincere about Charlotte, and the gifts they sent are enough to last Charlotte for a lifetime. They’re unlike someone over here who has never given us anything good in over two decades! Yet you still act like we’ve been given a huge advantage and bully us all the time. Who cares about you people?!”

Karen was obviously directing her remarks at Dominic.

Dominic was so infuriated that his blood pressure went up, and his face flushed. He almost fainted.

“Mom, cut it out.” Cheyenne and Charlotte hurriedly stopped Karen after getting out of the car with Amelia in Cheyenne’s arms.

However, they only glanced at Dominic faintly without paying much attention to the others. Since the Carters had already been so ruthless to them, they obviously wouldn’t have any good feelings for them.

The few of them walked straight toward the hotel, while William, who had been sitting in the car and was too scared to get out when he saw Dominic, also took advantage and got out quietly. He then scurried over to his wife and daughters.

The usher led them to the main table at the front to take their seats.

All the people in the hall looked at them in surprise while discussing softly their identities.

All the prestigious families of the county were invited to the banquet this evening, and only those of significant status could sit at the front tables.

However, they didn’t know who the Carters were.

“Hey, isn’t that woman who’s carrying a kid Cheyenne Carter?”

“The Cheyenne Carter who had an affair with her chauffeur?”

“Yes, it’s her! That scandal was all over the news, and it was the talk of the town. I still remember her face!”

There were many people who slowly began to recognize Cheyenne. After all, the scandal spread throughout the county, and they basically had some impression of her.

However, after recognizing Cheyenne, the people in the hall were even more surprised.

Why is Cheyenne Carter’s family sitting at the main table?

At this moment, Dominic Carter’s family arrived at the entrance of the hotel, but no one received them at all. It was as if the ushers didn’t see them. They simply walked past them to receive the other guests cordially.

Dominic coughed a little uneasily.

Bryce pulled one of the ushers and asked, “Is there no one to receive us? Where will we be sitting?”

Glancing at Bryce coldly, the usher snapped, “There are so many guests here, and I’m very busy. There’s a number on the invitation card. Can’t you see for yourself?”
