The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 373
Advertisement
William began to get dizzy from the strong inertia. But fortunately, the airbags in the car popped open in time, securely shielding them in the middle so that neither of them got hurt.
But the tall and sturdy Hummer was flung far by Lucas's Jaguar. The roof of the Hummer skid against the ground as it slid more than ten meters away.
William watched everything happen, completely dumbfounded. The Jaguar looked much smaller than the Hummer. William thought that Lucas was crashing into the Hummer in a suicide attempt and that he would certainly die. But to his surprise, both of them weren't injured while the Hummer was badly damaged. William wondered how the people in the Hummer were doing.
After being stunned for a moment, William immediately reacted. He frantically released the airbags and unbuckled his seat belt while saying in a panicky tone, "Lucas, quick, switch positions with me!"
Lucas immediately understood what William meant—he was trying to make himself seem like the driver who caused the accident and take full responsibility for it so that Lucas could be spared from being sanctioned by the law.
In case someone in the Hummer died, William would have to bear severe consequences.
Lucas felt extremely touched by William's action because he knew that William really treated him as his son-in-law, whose safety he would exchange the rest of his life for.
Lucas comforted him in a mellow voice, "William, don't worry. Everything will be fine."
William was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He said worriedly, "How can everything be fine? If the people in that Hummer die or end up sustaining severe injuries, I'll have to serve a long jail term! Anyway, I've already lived for decades, so I don't mind going to jail. But you're still young. You mustn't go to jail! Quick, switch places with me before it's too late!"

Seeing how panicky he was, Lucas could only comfort him. "William, I'll really be fine. Just trust me! Stay in the car and don't move. I'll go check out the situation."
Before William could say anything, Lucas opened the car door and got out.
"Hey, you… Lucas!" William couldn't stop Lucas in time and could only watch him get out of the driver's seat.
Lucas walked straight to the red Maserati and opened the door. Just as he expected, he saw a familiar face.
Lena was sitting inside the car, deathly pale. The car's airbags had already inflated, so she wasn't hurt, but she was visibly frightened and still shell-shocked.
As soon as she saw Lucas appear beside her, she immediately exclaimed in joy and surprise, "Lucas!"
He helped her open the car door and release the airbags. Only after getting out of the car did she heave a sigh of relief.
"Lucas, thank you so much. You've saved me again!" Lena thanked agitatedly.
Just now, the Hummer was speeding straight toward her Maserati at full speed, planning to smash her car against a large truck. If Lucas hadn't collided into the Hummer and slammed it out of the way in time, Lena would have probably been stuck under the wheels of the big truck along with her Maserati!
Lucas raised his eyebrows. "Who exactly did you offend? You've encountered assassinations time and time again. Where are your bodyguards?"
Lena frowned. "I'm not sure. It could be some of my family's enemies from Orange County who are lurking and going against us in secret. It could also be someone from LA. Since the news that the Sawyers and the Parkers were going to form a marriage alliance through me and Tristan got out, I've been facing lots of danger. People have been going against us, and I'm afraid they don't want to see the alliance happen!

"As for my bodyguards who came with me to LA, they're just a bunch of good-for-nothings!" Lena griped in displeasure.
As long as bodyguards failed to carry out their duties, they were considered useless bodyguards.
If it wasn't for Lucas just now, she would have been dead by now.
At this moment, the doors of the overturned Hummer opened, and two burly men dressed in black climbed out of it with great difficulty. But they were now covered in blood and still bleeding from their heads, looking extremely disheveled.
After the two men came out and scanned the surroundings, they immediately walked directly toward Lena.
"Lucas, they're still trying to kill me!" Lena subconsciously hid behind Lucas with lingering fear.
Lucas had saved her life several times, so she always saw him as a savior. She would feel safe only when hiding behind him.
"Don't worry. They won't be able to kill you," Lucas said indifferently, his voice full of confidence, making her calm down.
"Punk, how dare you run into our car? Do you have a death wish?" a burly man in black threatened Lucas while walking toward him.
There was a large cut on his head that was still slowly bleeding, and he was full of unbearable pain and discomfort. It was all caused by Lucas, so he was bent on settling scores with him!
"We'll get even with him later. We'd better complete the mission first!"
The other burly man in black had suffered less severe injuries and was much more rational. He said to Lena, "Miss Sawyer, please leave with us obediently. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that we won't harm you!"
Then they reached out to grab Lena aggressively.
But they didn't manage to touch Lena because Lucas was standing right in front of them like a thick wall blocking them from her.
"Punk, if you don't get out of the way, we'll kill you!" the first burly man in black threatened.
Lucas sneered. "You can try!"
"Punk, you must have a death wish! Let's finish him off first!" the other burly man said. He immediately pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist and stabbed at Lucas's chest!
To Lucas, they were extremely slow, so he effortlessly knocked the two of them onto the ground within just three seconds.
Lucas kicked them so hard that they curled up on the ground, holding their stomachs. Bearing with the excruciating pain while staring at the composed Lucas, they finally realized that he seemed to be an impressive expert who was far stronger than them!
Lena secretly glanced at Lucas twice. Her heart was full of a sweet, warm, and fuzzy feeling, as well as a sense of pride. He's truly worthy of being the man I'm in love with. He's so amazing!
"Who sent you here? If you don't come clean, I'll make sure you regret having ever lived in this world!" Lucas stood in front of them, staring down at them condescendingly with a cold and merciless gaze.

After spending an unsavory amount of time in hell, our protagonist finally manages to escape the place that had kept him captive for so long... again. Unfortunately, even after plotting and planning for years, he ends up in a place not much different from the burning and agonizing Tartarus he once had to call home. Guts, blood, and carnage start to reign over Earth as soon as he set foot in it, much to his dismay. What use is it to cry over spilled milk, though? Tired of the monotony of endless torture, he steps into the world intending to have as much fun as possible. While others might try to raid the Orc Lord with as many people as possible, why not challenge him to an arm-wrestling tournament? The power of friendship will surely be on his side. Why hide from the big, bad wolf in one of your houses if wearing camo in plain sight should have the same effect? Now, making friends and going on adventures would be perfectly fine, if it wasn't for the fact that he hides a few more secrets than one might think at first. This is a complete rewrite! Due to being unsatisfied with the previous version, I have decided to work the story up, beginning from the older chapters! Version 2.0 includes: - enhanced writing and editorial skills - additional information and aspects to characters - minor deviation from storyline and improvements
