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

1133 Immense Pain

Seeing how confident Lucas was, Ashton was furious.

Ashton had always been an esteemed scion of the Hills, and he might become the future helmsman. In the past, no matter where he went, everyone would eagerly want to suck up to him. He had never been so furious before.

Lucas was especially abominable for actually daring to ask him to compensate for his mental trauma.

Now that there were so many of his subordinates and staff members of Club Illuma, Ashton would definitely be humiliated if he gave in and succumbed to Lucas!

At the thought of the experts of the Hills he had brought with him today, Ashton finally ordered, “Do it! Take him down!”

“Yes, Mr. Ashton!”

Ashton’s bodyguards, who were surrounding Lucas, immediately charged toward him.

But before they could get close, Lucas had already started moving.

Whoosh!

Lucas’s figure seemed to turn into a blurry afterimage. No one knew how he was moving, but painful cries suddenly came from the poker room, which had been cleared of onlookers! Immediately afterward, one figure after another was sent flying out!

Boom!

“Argh!”

Thud!

…

For a moment, only the thumps of bodies crashing on the floor and miserable shrieks sounded.

Just ten seconds later, none of the experts who had surrounded Lucas could stand and speak properly.

Lucas patted his sleeves and walked over toward Ashton calmly while saying, “Mr. Hills, your subordinates don’t seem to be able to take a beating!”

Ashton stared at the scene in front of him with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

Lucas had actually subdued the numerous experts Ashton had brought within ten short seconds, and none of them could get up from the floor!

How good are Lucas Gray’s martial arts skills?!

Watching Lucas walk toward him one step at a time, Ashton was scared speechless. In panic, he stepped backward and shouted anxiously, “Don’t… don’t come here! What are you trying to do?”

Looking at Ashton, who was so frightened that he was about to lose his balance, Lucas said with a smile, “Don’t worry. I won’t hit you today. I’ve already stated my request just now.

“But 3 billion dollars was the price earlier. Since you just ordered people to hurt me again, which makes me very unhappy, add another 150 million dollars as compensation for my mental trauma, for a total of 3.15 billion dollars.

“Get someone to transfer the money to my account, and I’ll leave. But if you’re unwilling or you want to dilly-dally, the amount will be much higher in a bit.”

Smiling, Lucas threw a bank card onto a card table next to Ashton.

Ashton was now terribly frightened. After hearing what Lucas said, he was on the verge of tears.

This was simply daylight robbery!

He had just beaten the living daylights out of his subordinates, yet he even asked for extra money to compensate for his mental damage.

Lucas didn’t suffer any mental trauma at all. Instead, it was Ashton himself who was greatly agitated and still shell-shocked.

Moreover, Club Illuma was indeed very profitable, but it was a family business, and most of the profits went to the Hills. Only a small amount went to Ashton’s pocket!

Now, Lucas wanted him to take out 3.15 billion dollars at once. Except for Lucas’s bet of 602 million dollars, the remaining 2.513 billion dollars would come from Club Illuma!

Ashton was only in charge of managing Club Illuma, and the amount of funds he could transfer was only 2 billion dollars at most. He would have to fork out the remaining 513 million dollars from his own pocket!

The thought of Lucas taking away so much money made Ashton feel like his heart was dripping blood.

Moreover, if his family found out that Club Illuma had lost such a large sum of money, they would definitely hold Ashton accountable!

But in the face of Lucas’s strength, Ashton didn’t even dare to refuse, afraid that Lucas would suddenly add more compensation and make him pay even more!

“Damn it. Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and transfer the money to Mr. Gray!” Ashton shouted angrily at one of Club Illuma’s finance managers beside him.

At this point, the only thing he could do was obey Lucas. Otherwise, there would be nothing he could do if Lucas wanted more compensation.

After being reprimanded by the furious Ashton, the finance manager didn’t dare to refuse and could only take Lucas’s bank card and quickly handle the transfer.

Seeing this scene, Lucas sat back down leisurely and looked at Ashton with a smile.

Strictly speaking, Lucas had barged into Club Illuma alone for the sake of taking revenge for Gemma and also to give Ashton and his family a serious warning.

Of course, if something really happened to Gemma, Lucas would destroy Club Illuma and annihilate Ashton and the Hills!

Fortunately, Flynn called and informed him that the main reason Gemma had to undergo emergency rescue was because of a heart attack. Even though it still had something to do with the Hills, Lucas’s murderous intent had subsided greatly.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be sitting here and just asking Ashton for a few billion dollars in compensation.

Under Lucas’s smiling gaze, Ashton was on tenterhooks, making his entire body feel incomparably uncomfortable.

He had never found the passage of time to be such torment!

After two minutes finally passed, Lucas’s phone rang. It was a notification informing him that he had received the money.

The finance manager also hurried over and respectfully returned Lucas’s bank card with both hands. “Mr. Gray, the 3.15 billion dollars has been transferred to your account. Please check it!”

Lucas casually put away the bank card and smiled at Ashton again. “Mr. Hill, if you think you have too much money in the future, feel free to come to me. I’d be glad to do this again a few more times.”

Ashton was on the verge of tears. Lucas had taken away such a huge sum of money from him, so he naturally hoped for this to happen a few more times, but Ashton didn’t want to see Lucas ever again!

“You… Please take care!” Ashton said through gritted teeth.

“Heh, goodbye.” Lucas waved the bank card in his hand and left dashingly.

Only after Lucas’s figure completely disappeared did Ashton wipe the cold sweat from his face and sit down on the chair beside him, his legs limp and weak.

The moment he thought of the more than three billion dollars in Lucas’s bank account, Ashton felt immense pain in every inch of his body!
