The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray - Chapter 1120

Chapter 1120: Crippling His Own Limbs

What Lucas said caused Trevor to collapse to the ground. He looked up at Alexander, who was standing nearby, utterly speechless.

On the other hand, Alexander felt a sudden warmth surge in his heart.

Indeed, he had just tried to persuade Trevor several times, but the latter had simply ignored him with annoyance. He had even said that he would beat Alexander up if he spoke again.

Only Lucas knew that he had advised Trevor to prevent him from courting death and save him from a fatal mishap.

Alexander sighed and said to Trevor, “Trevor, since you don’t consider me a Steele anymore, I won’t call you my cousin. Grandpa called you to tell you not to lay a finger on Mr. Gray and to try your best to seek his forgiveness, right?

“I told you before that if you insisted on taking revenge on Mr. Gray, it would definitely bring disaster to the Steeles, but you refused to believe me. However, since Grandpa called you, he must have already found out some information.

“As you know, Grandpa has always been firm in his decisions, and Mr. Gray is the same.

“You have greatly offended Mr. Gray, so it’s only right to pay the price for it.

“You’re the only third-generation scion of the Steeles remaining. As long as you’re still alive, you’ll still be able to become the future helmsman of the family even if all of your limbs are crippled.

“But if you insist on defying Mr. Gray now, you’ll have to pay the price with your life. Can you really afford to bear the consequences?

“You should know the right choice to make now, right?”

Alexander knew that with Trevor’s death-courting behavior just now, Lucas was already being extremely kind to him by only wanting to cripple his limbs instead of killing him.

Moreover, even if his limbs were crippled, he might still be able to recover in the future. But if he died here, there would be no future for him.

Trevor immediately understood Alexander’s advice.

He gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind. “Alright, in that case… I’ll do as you said! After I cripple my limbs, I hope you’ll forgive me and forget the feud with the Steeles!”

Lucas nodded. “Of course.”

Hearing this, Trevor said to the two experts of the Steeles behind him, “You guys, break my limbs!”

The people he had brought with him were the strongest experts of the Steeles, so breaking limbs was extremely simple for them. Moreover, since they were experts, they might do it a little faster and make him suffer a little less.

The two experts behind Trevor looked at each other, both understanding what Trevor meant.

They were merely experts invited by the Steeles. Since the Steeles and Trevor had already made their decision, they just had to follow orders.

“Sorry!” the two experts whispered. Then they stepped forward and placed their hands on Trevor’s wrists and ankles.

Snap!

Snap!

Snap!

Snap!

“Ahhhhh!”

With four crisp and clear sounds of bones breaking, Trevor shrieked in misery under the immense pain.

Although he had already been mentally prepared, the pain of having the bones of his limbs broken still made him wail in excruciating pain.

The surrounding crowd couldn’t help trembling when they heard his miserable cries. They even looked at Lucas with awe and respect.

Even the scion of the Steeles, one of the eight top families, had to bear the consequences of offending Lucas. So the rest of them didn’t even dare to think about offending him.

Many people among the crowd outside began asking about who Lucas of the Stardust Corporation was.

Lucas glanced at Trevor wailing in pain with tears and snot all over his face. “Get lost.”

The Steeles’ experts didn’t dare to say anything, and they immediately carried Trevor away from the Stardust Corporation.

Soon, the security department of the Stardust Corporation sent another team to disperse the crowd standing around the entrance and watching the fun. Meanwhile, the Stardust Corporation’s employees returned to work.

Everything returned to normal, and order was restored.

Alexander didn’t leave. After the crowd dispersed, he walked to Lucas and said sincerely, “Mr. Gray, thank you so much for today!”

He was naturally thanking Lucas for sparing Trevor’s life.

Lucas smiled. “It’s just a trivial matter. From now on, you’re a member of the Stardust Corporation, and you just have to handle your duties well. If you’re still interested in the position of the Steeles’ helmsman in the future, feel free to go back whenever you want.”

Alexander immediately felt more grateful toward Lucas.

But it was absolutely impossible for him to return to the Steeles.

Alexander had already spent more than two decades of his life living in that competitive, scheming environment. Now that he had finally left and even earned Lucas’s appreciation, why would he return to the Steeles?

Besides, the position of the Steeles’ helmsman had never appealed to him. All he wanted now was to protect the Steeles to the best of his abilities so that his father’s efforts and sacrifice wouldn’t go to waste.

Alexander said earnestly, “Mr. Gray, I no longer have any thoughts about being with the Steeles. Since our family of three has already decided to join you, we will definitely stay loyal to you and work for you. Feel free to give us any instructions in the future!”

When they were upstairs just now, the entire family had already come to a decision.

Lucas looked at him approvingly. “Good. From now on, you will take instructions from Mr. Davis. He’ll tell you everything you need to do.”

Although Lucas was the chairman of the Stardust Corporation, Flynn was the general manager, so he would naturally handle the specific work matters.

“Yes, Mr. Gray.” Alexander immediately agreed humbly.

He had always been a very smart person. Although the companies he had been responsible for were much fewer than his cousins’ when he used to be a scion of the Steeles, he had been in charge of companies of similar size to the Stardust Corporation.

Now that he was in the Stardust Corporation, he could only follow the orders of a general manager whose family background was far inferior to his and work as a subordinate.

There was a huge difference from what Alexander was used to, but he didn’t complain or show the slightest bit of dissatisfaction. Instead, he appeared to have really decided to do whatever he had to.

After Lucas left the Stardust Corporation office building, Alexander finally headed upstairs and entered Flynn’s office again.

“Mr. Davis, our family will be working for the Stardust Corporation from now on. Please feel free to give us any instructions!” Alexander’s attitude was very humble and amicable.

Ashley and Elise both looked at Flynn humbly too.

They both knew that Flynn would be their direct superior from now on.

Flynn said with a smile, “Sure. Alright, regarding your work arrangements… The Stardust Corporation’s current development is considered rather rapid, but we don’t have a place in the overseas market yet because of a lack of top talents.

“So I plan to send you three abroad to manage the Stardust Corporation’s overseas market expansion. What do you think?”
