The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 401
Advertisement
Cheyenne covered her mouth with one hand, but tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably before rolling down her cheeks like large crystals.
At this moment, her heart was full of emotions, and she was so agitated that she couldn't say anything.
Previously, on the rooftop of the Intercontinental Hotel in Orange County, Lucas had also proposed to her once with this exorbitant pink diamond ring.
At the time, she could tell how sincere he was toward her, but she could only turn him down because she didn't love him yet.
But later on, many things happened between them, and they went through thick and thin together. Lucas protected and defended Cheyenne time and time again, causing her to be touched and eventually fall in love with him.
Now, she was absolutely certain that she loved Lucas!
"Say yes!"
"Say yes!"
"Say yes!"
...
While Cheyenne's heart was pounding and she was full of emotions, the loud exclamations filled the space in the large hall of the mall.
Many people were either watching the fun or sincerely giving their best wishes to Lucas and Cheyenne. The sounds of yelling spread far from the mall and attracted many passersby.
Seeing more and more people crowding around them, Cheyenne looked more and more shy.
Cheyenne lowered her head and then looked up at Lucas tenderly with a smile on her face. "Yes!"
There were still tears on her face, and her smile was extremely breathtaking!
The two of them looked into each other's eyes for a long time.
Amid the cheers in the hall, Lucas solemnly put the precious pink diamond ring onto Cheyenne's ring finger and then pulled her into her arms.
More than six years ago, Lucas had already fallen deeply in love with Cheyenne. In order to become worthy of her and capable of protecting her from anything, he had joined the military without hesitation and worked hard for six years. After such a long time, he finally got to embrace Cheyenne in his arms!

"Wow!"
"Congratulations!"
"Awesome! I've witnessed such beautiful love!"
Seeing the success of the proposal, the people in the hall immediately applauded and cheered loudly, causing the scene to become extremely lively.
By the time the reporters caught wind of the news and came to look for the protagonists who caused the sensational uproar today, Lucas and Cheyenne had already left quietly long ago.
The back seat of the luxurious Porsche was covered with 9,999 brightly colored roses, which Cheyenne couldn't even carry.
Cheyenne sat in the passenger seat, surrounded by the fragrance of roses and gazing at Lucas next to her, her heart full of bliss.
When she saw Lucas give that basket of roses to the elderly couple earlier, she was full of envy and had a trace of disappointment.
But now, she had not only received a romantic proposal where Lucas put the engagement ring on her ring finger right in front of everyone, but she was also presented with a car full of roses. She had gotten everything most girls wanted!
It was really the happiest day of her life!
Cheyenne couldn't stop smiling, and her eyes were shining. From time to time, she would steal glances at Lucas and grin even more widely.
"Honey," Lucas suddenly said.
"Huh?"
"Why don't… you stay the night today?" Lucas's face flushed a little, but when he saw that they were almost at the hotel he was staying at, he couldn't help speaking up.
After realizing what Lucas meant, Cheyenne felt like her face was on fire, and she began blushing as red as a tomato.
Although the two of them had been married for nearly six years, they had only ever gotten intimate with each other once, which was that one time that caused their scandal. Since then, they had never had any further intimate actions in all these years.
Since they were now aware of each other's feelings and mutually acknowledged their marriage, it was only a matter of course for them to consummate it.

After saying those words, Lucas felt extremely nervous.
Cheyenne blushed and hung her head low for a long time before saying softly, "I… my Aunt Flo is here…"
"Aunt? Shouldn't your aunt be at the Turners' place now?" Lucas asked in puzzlement, failing to catch what she meant.
"Ah! I mean, my period is here! Why are you so…" Cheyenne frowned and stared at Lucas.
"Huh? Oh… okay!" Lucas finally realized what she meant and couldn't help rebuking himself. Then he was overwhelmed with embarrassment and a slight tinge of disappointment. This is probably considered a force majeure factor…
"Ahem." Lucas coughed awkwardly and cleared his throat before changing the subject. "Are you hungry? Do you want to go eat something?"
The sky had already turned dark, and it was now dinnertime.
While Cheyenne was pondering about it, her phone suddenly rang.
When she saw Nikki's name on her phone screen, she hesitated for a moment before answering.
Nikki's sharp voice immediately sounded from the speaker of the phone. "Cheyenne, you haven't forgotten your promise to have dinner with us tonight, have you? Kenneth and I have already arranged for you to meet some people from top families in LA. We'll be meeting later at seven o'clock in a private room of the Lion Restaurant LA. You have to come join us!"
Only then did Cheyenne remember that Lucas had agreed to have dinner with Nikki and Kenneth on her behalf when they were at the arts center in the afternoon.
It would be inappropriate for her to go back on her word now.
Cheyenne had no choice but to say, "Okay, it's past six now. Lucas and I will head there now."
After hanging up the phone, Cheyenne glared at Lucas menacingly and chided, "It's all your fault for agreeing to have dinner with them tonight. They've already made arrangements with people from top families. We have no choice but to go."
She didn't want to have dinner with Nikki and Kenneth at all. But considering that people from top families in LA were invited too, it would be a great opportunity for her to build some connections that would aid the Brilliance Corporation's expansion in LA. She thought that it wouldn't be good to bail on them.
Lucas was feeling rather regretful too. When he agreed to have dinner with them in the afternoon, he was just trying to spite Nikki and Kenneth. But now that he had just proposed to Cheyenne, he really wanted to spend some quality time with her alone. How could he possibly be bothered to deal with those obnoxious people?
"Let's just give it a pass! With me around, you don't have to worry about expanding into the LA market," Lucas said.
He was now the chairman of LA's largest enterprise, the Solar Corporation, and it would be an absolute piece of cake for him to help the Brilliance Corporation expand into the market here. Cheyenne didn't need to entertain those people and build connections with them at all, so he thought that it wouldn't be a big deal for them to bail on Nikki.
Cheyenne sighed and said seriously, "I know you hold great power now, but I don't want to be a useless person who has to rely on you for everything. I want to be strong and capable enough to hold my head high beside you instead of being so dependent on you.
"I hope to stand side by side with you like a small tree and not like a fragile withering grass!"
Lucas was stunned. He had known a long time ago that Cheyenne was an independent and strong woman, which was also why he admired her.
Lucas smiled and said affectionately, "Okay, you call the shots."

All World Online
Damien Close, age 19, becomes a quadriplegic after an unfortunate car accident, losing all function of his body from the neck down. With his parents in shock and his best friend suffering from unbearable guilt, Damien finds himself without much support. Being unable to even take his own life, Damien struggles to get past each day, looking for something to live for. With every passing day, Damien becomes more solemn and impassive. Three months later, Damien has almost given up, but to his surprise something unexpected happens. He is given the chance of a lifetime; to take part in a study focused on researching the effects of VR games on quadriplegic patients. Authors Note: If you find that the dialogue from the prologue to chapter 5 seem to be not that smooth, I apologize for that, it was my first time writing a fanfic so the dialogue was not in a format that is ideal. However, due to reader comments and some research I will try to attempt to improve the dialogue from chapter 6 and onwards. I may or may not come back to edit the first few chapters since I would have to rewrite most of it and I would rather spend that time writing out more of the story.

This project has no purpose
Summary: This is the story about the life of a "human" amidst a world that only appears to be earth at first glance. Long ago the face of this world resembled the typical tales of yore; of knights and fairies, swords and magic, however such an era has come and gone. Even the world of fantasy has progressed steadily into the modern epoch filled with the wonders of science and technology! In the ancient times a certain crisis had occured that lead to the quick decline of various magical species. Due to their low population and general incompatibility with the other races they could not crossbreed to save their numbers. Left with no other choice the major races of the world gathered together in an attempt to change the fate of this dying world. Their only hope was a special 'world-tier' magic known as 'the dusk of harmony'. The result of this magic would dissolve every race into their purest essences known as 'aspect' and instill them within the human population. The humans were the best choice as their numbers were numerous and form was similar to most races. As such, the various races of this world managed to save themselves in essence and soul only, though perhaps there was no other choice. With the various humans now carrying the weight and aspects of those who came before, life has continued onto the modern age. Yet, even amongst these hybrids 'Pures' emerge from time to time, beings who have inherited not only aspects of the ancient races, but their forms too. These Pures are often times exceptionally talented and seen as near deities. This is the story of a perculiar boy who is born with the soul of a stranger from the world known as 'Earth'. With the memories and soul of a human, he too is a rare Pure; a pure human. --- This project literally has no purpose and is being written because I felt like it. There isn't any semblance of a solid direction nor have I thought about any characters aside from the main character and a few auxiliary cast. If you would like to contribute to building this world with me then please contact me through a DM or by leaving a comment, I will be sure to credit you.
