The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray Chapter 788 - Center of Attention

Chapter 788 Center of Attention

“What did you say… you! How dare you say that to me? You…”
Hearing what Lucas said, Lily immediately flew into a rage. But seeing how composed he was, she suddenly felt her heart race in panic and couldn’t bring herself to curse at him.
Summer immediately reassured her from the side. “Lily, don’t bother with this loser! The top powerhouse of the Peerless Martial Association in the ring is clearly looking for the Master of California and asking him to go up on stage. Yet he’s pretending to be the Master of California and running up there himself! Since he has a death wish, we shouldn’t stop him. Anyway, he won’t end up well!”
“… Yes, you’re right. Since he dares to impersonate the Master of California, he deserves to die!” Lily said through gritted teeth despite feeling uneasy.
After hearing the two women beside him claiming that Lucas was impersonating the Master of California, Asher turned to look at them with an extremely complicated expression.
He and Lucas had been close friends for years, so he naturally knew Lucas’s previous character very well. Although Lucas was quiet most of the time, he was definitely a smart person and would never court death. In particular, anyone could tell that Julian, who had killed two top experts from California and Oregon, was challenging the Master of California now.
It wasn’t a good thing that warranted competing for glory and credit. Who would recklessly court death by impersonating the Master of California at this time?
Besides, the top families of California were all sitting in the VIP seats in front of them. Who would have the audacity to impersonate the overlord to whom they were all loyal? The only possibility was that Lucas was the true Master of California!
Although Asher didn’t know exactly how Lucas did this incredible thing, he was completely convinced now!
A pang of worship and excitement suddenly surged in Asher’s heart. He clenched his fists tightly, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest because of how agitated he was.
At this moment, he was incomparably proud of Lucas. But at the same time, he also felt extremely worried about Lucas’s situation in the near future.
At the same time, Asher also understood the meaning of Lucas’s last sentence. Lily and Summer, who had been speculating about Lucas’s thoughts with the most malicious and stupid mindsets, were the ones who were truly hopelessly stupid!
If possible, he wanted to draw a clear line between himself and these two stupid and arrogant women. Unfortunately, he couldn’t do it now!
As Lucas walked toward the ring with light footsteps, a spotlight shone down from the above and started following him closely, bathing him in bright and dreamy light. He was like a god descending in this world, whom everyone admired.
As Lucas appeared, the helmsmen of all the top families in the California VIP seats stood up and bowed to Lucas.
“I, Edmund Cole, welcome the Master of California!”
“I, Damon Parker, welcome the Master of California!”
“I, Bruce Hale, welcome the Master of California!”
Several loud and respectful voices sounded in the venue.
The atmosphere started boiling because of the reactions of the helmsmen to the Master of California.
“He… that young man is really the Master of California! Oh my gosh, he’s so young and imposing!”
“The helmsmen of so many powerful families are bowing to him in greeting. There’s no mistake. He must be the Master of California! He’s so handsome!”
“His aura is so domineering! This is the greatness of the Master of California, and I got to see him in person! Ahhh! The tens of thousands of dollars I spent to be here today is really worth it!”
Countless people were screaming in amazement. Afterward, someone shouted in an extremely rhythmic voice, “Master of California! Master of California!”
“Master of California! Master of California!”
“Master of California! Master of California!”
“Master of California! Master of California!”
The crowd was really agitated, and everyone was driven by the intense atmosphere. They yelled the Master of California’s name loudly in unison and joined the grand welcome ceremony.
Among the crowd, Pamela dropped her demeanor as a demure heiress of one of the top eight families of DC. With excitement all over her face, she began screaming loudly without any regard for her image.
At this moment, all she could see was the tall figure walking out of the crowd calmly, shrouded in brilliant light.
Next to her, Florence was finally certain of Lucas’s identity. She didn’t expect that Cheyenne’s good-for-nothing husband, whom she had despised, was actually the Master of California, whom she had been looking for and wanted to marry her daughter to!
She looked at Lucas’s figure with an incomparably stunned look on her face, not noticing in the least the unusual reaction of her niece Pamela right next to her.
Among the ordinary audience, Asher was extremely excited.
His former best friend had now achieved such a terrifying status and received so much applause and praise. Tears welled up in his eyes as he felt proud of Lucas. But the two people next to him, Lily and Summer, were completely dumbfounded.
The cheers filling the arena were like loud slaps hitting their faces.
“He… h-he’s actually… actually the Master of California!” The two looked at each other and stammered in disbelief, feeling as if they were dreaming.
But soon, this dream-like feeling turned into horror and post-nightmare palpitations.
Lucas was really the Master of California. Just what did they say and do to him just now?!
The two almost didn’t dare to recall the ugly things that they had said or done!
As the audience cheered, Lucas reached the ring and slowly made his way up the steps, walking in a relaxed and ordinary manner.
He didn’t carry the domineering aura of Julian when he flew eight meters to the ring and smashed the floor with one foot, nor the etherealness of Paul.
Lucas was like an ordinary person as he stood in the ring.
But Lucas’s calm and indifferent face made Julian feel an unprecedented terrifying pressure.
