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

Calvin casually said that he would sell the Ocean Bathhouse to Lucas if he could pay eight million dollars in cash right on the spot because he was initially certain that Lucas wouldn’t be able to fork out such a large sum of money.

But the real owner of the bathhouse was the Taylors. Calvin was just the legally appointed person in charge of the bathhouse. How could he have the guts to sell it without permission?

Calvin knew for a fact that the Taylors definitely wouldn’t spare him if he dared to sell the Ocean Bathhouse!

At this moment, a young lawyer in his twenties clad in a suit and holding a black briefcase entered the Ocean Bathhouse.

After he scanned the crowd, he walked straight to Joe and lowered his head respectfully. “Joe, this is the transfer agreement you asked us to prepare just now. The terms have been drafted, and this contract will take effect as soon as the transferor and transferee sign it.”

Joe grabbed the document from the lawyer’s hand, quickly looked through the contract terms, and then handed it to Lucas after ensuring that there were no problems. He said respectfully, “Mr. Gray, the contract has been prepared according to your orders. There are no problems. You may sign it.”

Lucas took the transfer contract from Joe and said with a nod of satisfaction, “Good.”

He then turned around to look at Calvin and said smilingly, “Mr. Pearce, what you said just now in front of everyone should still count, right? I’ve already transferred the money to you and drafted the contract. Take a look at it and sign your name.”

Calvin’s face was extremely sullen at this moment.

Large droplets of sweat appeared on his forehead as he stared at the contract in front of him in horror as if it was a ferocious beast.

Calvin definitely wouldn’t dare to sign that contract!

“Uh, Mr. Gray, I was just kidding. I don’t intend to sell this bathhouse,” Calvin said embarrassedly with an awful, forced smile.

Lucas stopped smiling and said coldly, “In that case, do your words mean nothing at all? I didn’t take it as a joke. I’ve already transferred eight million dollars to your bank account. Do you think I’m joking?”

Calvin hurriedly said, “I’ll transfer that money back to you now, not a single cent less!”

Calvin then took out his phone and fumbled around while anxiously trying to transfer the eight million dollars back to Lucas.

Lucas grabbed Calvin’s wrist to stop him before saying coldly, “I’ve already paid you the money. It’s now time for you to complete the sale to me.”

Then he took the transfer contract, quickly signed his name on it, and pushed it toward Calvin. “Mr. Pearce, it’s your turn now.”

Calvin gritted his teeth and roared, “I said I’m not going to sell it!”

At this moment, his eyes were full of fear, stemming from thinking about the Taylors.

As the person in charge of the Ocean Bathhouse, Calvin knew very well what it meant to the Taylors, especially with the illegal business secretly being run on the top floor. He definitely couldn’t let the bathhouse land in the hands of an outsider, or else the Taylors would certainly kill him!

Thus, no matter what, Calvin didn’t dare to sign his name on the transfer contract.

Lucas slightly narrowed his eyes that were full of impatience and annoyance.

Joe instantly understood what Lucas meant. He shot a glance at the bodyguards behind him, and the both of them walked over and grabbed Calvin’s arm.

“What are you doing? What are you trying to do?” Calvin hollered in fear and anger.

Joe chuckled. “Mr. Pearce, I think we should go to a private room to talk about this matter!”

Then the two bodyguards held Calvin down like he was a prisoner and dragged him into a small room nearby before he could even say anything.

Soon, Joe came out of the room, holding the signed transfer contract. He then handed it to Lucas with both hands. “Mr. Gray, the procedures have been completed. You are now the new owner of the Ocean Bathhouse.”

Lucas nodded and said politely to the surrounding customers, who were overwhelmed with astonishment, “Dear guests, the incident today has affected your experience at our bathhouse. As the new owner of the Ocean Bathhouse, I hereby apologize and thank you for your support!

“Our staff will give you each a small gift as a token of our apology later. At the same time, we also hope that you will patronize the Ocean Bathhouse frequently in the future! However, I hope you won’t spout nonsense about what happened today.”

The customers present nodded in agreement. “Sure, you’re so generous, Mr. Gray. We definitely won’t spout any nonsense.”

“Yeah, Mr. Gray bought this bathhouse for eight million dollars, and all the legal procedures have been completed. Who is to say anything?”

In fact, the crowd had already made many guesses about Lucas’s identity as soon as he had paid the eight million dollars in cash. Since then, they were sure that Lucas was definitely not an ordinary good-for-nothing and that he definitely had incredible power!

Seeing that Lucas had dealt with Calvin so quickly and even became the new owner of the bathhouse, they knew that the methods he had resorted to, as well as what happened in that small room, were definitely far beyond the limits of their imagination.

Likewise, they wouldn’t dare to spread a word about what happened today, lest they provoked Lucas and ended up having to bear severe consequences.

Satisfied with the dramatic scene they had watched and Lucas’s efforts to appease them by giving them valuable gifts, they all dispersed and returned to the bathing rooms, massage rooms, and lounge from where they had come.

Only the former employees of the Ocean Bathhouse, such as the two beautiful receptionists, the security guards who had wanted to attack Lucas with electric batons, and Perry, all stood up with looks of shock and fright.

The receptionist who had slandered William had already turned as pale as a sheet, and her legs were limp. She had despair and hopelessness written all over her face. She was well aware that since Lucas was now the owner, he definitely wouldn’t let her continue working at the bathhouse!

The other beautiful receptionist also looked anxious, afraid that she would be implicated and end up getting fired by Lucas too.

On the other hand, after carefully looking at Lucas for a few moments, Perry smiled and walked toward him subserviently. He bent over and said politely, “Mr. Gray, I’m really sorry for what I did just now! Please forgive me! Do you have any other orders now? Let me know, and I’ll get it done immediately!”

His attitude had changed really quickly.

But Lucas merely glanced at him coldly and said indifferently, “I won’t keep an employee like you around. Go to finance to collect your final pay!”
