Gray Lance: Useless Son-in-law Is The Billionaire General /Esther Writes
Gray lowers the gun and Mister de Nicola has never seen such a beautiful display of skills. “Son, are you trying to tell me that the army taught you how to shoot like that?” He marvels. “Why trained you? Which general were you under?” This has been a question a lot of people have asked Gray, even when he is the Mars to them. The truth is that when Gray first joined the army, he was like every other recruit there, but he came with so much determination that no one was able to teach him with the intensity that he needed. So, he would disappear into the void lands for days, just training alone by himself. In just the space of two years, all the demons he faced in the voids turned him into the fearless killing machine that he is today…“It's hard to say, Mister de Nicola. I trained under so many Generals, because they couldn't handle my intensity.” Gray says. “I am not even surprised!” Mrs de Nicola chuckles. “If I had a bodyguard like you, I wouldn't even care a bit in the world!”

Mateo feels like he passed out from that slap and just recovered now. His face is stinging with pain and there is a ringing in his right ear. He holds his hand over his face, he is sure that if he looks at his hand now, he would see blood on it. He pushes himself up and he sees that his mother is begging his father not to hit him again. His father rarely hits him. His father is a disciplinarian. He would be punished, ground, he would do anything, but rarely hit his children. What is it that he has done that made his father to angrily hit him in that manner? “You are a disgrace to the de Nicola family, do you hear me?! A big fool, that's what you are!” His father barks. “My husband, please calm down!” His mother begs. “Mateo is just a kid, you have to act calmly with him. He doesn't know everything, you know that he is still learning!” “I had one thing that I asked from this boy, one thing!” He roars. “I told him that if he was going to be with that useless girlfriend or his, t

Once in a month, Gray has to go to meet Alice in the office and sign all the documents that need his signature as the anonymous trillionaire. The businesses are doing so well and his net worth is growing at a geometric rate. Not many people know who he is, he walks in with a cleaner’s overall, and no one can even recognize him. Not even the few employees that know who he truly is…Alice is standing next to him as he signs the papers in front of her. “Two hundred million dollars.” Gray mutters as he looks at a proposal on his table. “How much is the return of investment?” “More than seventy percent increase, sir.” Alice says. “I checked it out myself, sir, and it's a very promising business opportunity.” Gray signs it immediately and when he is done, he stands up and gets ready to leave. “There is a meeting I need to attend tomorrow as your representative.” She says to him as they walk to the door. She has an excited smile on her face. “They are going to give me the highest hono

“He is not going anywhere with you!” Alice shouts. “Who do you think you are?! Coming in here and giving orders like you run the place!” The one who is standing in front, who looks like their leader, turns to her. “Miss Yashin, that's why we asked to speak to the anonymous trillionaire first.” “What the fuck do you want with my cleaner?!” She barks in their faces. “It's nothing too serious, Miss Yashin, but Mister Lance needs to come with us, right now!”One of them reaches out to grab Gray by the shoulder, but Alice tackles that one to the ground and twists his arm to the back. The others back off in fear, they didn't know that she is so skilled like this. Five of them pulls out their guns and aims it at Alice, Gray immediately raises his hands. “You said no guns,” Gray mutters. “I'm sorry, Mister Lance, but she is forcing our hand. We don't want to hurt anyone, but we need you to come with us.” The leader says. Alice is gashing her teeth in anger, but Gray frees the man from

“I know that this is a surprise to you, you are asking yourself, who are these people and why have they ask me to come to them?” Mister de Nicola asks.”Do not be afraid. You have been given the highest honour now, an admission into the secret society.” “What?!” “That ring, that signet on your left hand, do you know what it means?” Gray looks at the ring on his finger. He barely paid any attention to it. “I've had this ring for a few weeks now. What does it mean? Is the ring for something else other than adornment for my finger?” “Mister Lance, that ring belonged to your late grandfather in-law, Theodore Blanchard.” he says. “He belonged to our secret society, and because you are now with his ring, and that you are his grandson inlaw, you are now to take his place.” Gray snickers with laughter, he claps his hands and leans over with laughter. He is waiting for them to laugh too, and say that this is a prank, but they don't. Gray knows a lot of things, but he didn't know of this

Gray looks down with a gentle smile on his face. “Is this a joke? You know that I earned this signet! I paid good money at the auction for it.” “And all of that doesn't matter now, does it? Because at the end of the day, you don't know how to use this kind of power in that thing. Mateo can do a better job and if you have any sense in your head, you will give up that ring without a fight.” But Gray already knows that's not going to happen. This society will reveal more secrets to him, and he knows that he can use that to bring down the corrupted army. He doesn't care if a spoiled brat wants the ring, he is not giving it to them. So he exhales and folds his hands. “You know what, Mister de Nicola? That's going to be a hard pass for me. I like this secret society, and I am going to give them a positive answer in two days’ time.” He says. This doesn't please Mister de Nicola at all, his face turns red and contorts with rage. “Do you know who you are talking to, son? I'm de Nicola!

General Landon Hayes was unsure of the address when he stepped out of the taxi, but now that he is standing in front of the house and a man pointing a gun at him? He takes a fighting stance and draws his own gun and aims it at William. “Who are you?” Landon asks him. “You don't get to ask me any question, man. Walk away before I blow your brains all over the floor!” “Hey, I don't want any trouble. I'm here to see Gray Lance and if this is the wrong house, I am going to leave.” Hearing him saying that he has come to see Gray makes William to cock his gun and curse under his breath. “What do you want from Mister Lance?” William yells. “Speak now before I kill you, motherfucker!” The commotion causes Stacy and Gray to rush to the door.

The army was where Gray turned into the killer machine that he is but it also gave him his best friend, Landon Hayes. They met on their first day in the army and even argued on the line. They were bunked in the same room, and reluctantly, they became friends. They were under different Generals, but were excellent soldiers in their own ways. They were the only ones who could match each other's energy in combat. Even when Gray became a very powerful member of the army and took up the secret identity of the Mars, Landon was one of the people who knew who he was. Sadly, Landon has to leave back to Deholt, but they keep in touch with each other now. Landon is a good General, but he lacks when it comes to war and to training soldiers…Gray closes the door after Landon and then both of them sit down in his office. “You got divorced?” Landon is in awe. “She said I was too poor for her liking,” Gray shrugs. Landon laughs. “That's a joke, right? You didn't tell her that you're literall

As soon as Stacy hears that Gray is going to be leaving the country again, she immediately bursts out and bends over crying. Gray is stunned by this, he has never seen his wife cry like a little girl like this. He picks her up from the ground and cradles her in his hands. “Please don't cry, Stacy, I wouldn't have done it if it's not necessary.” He says. “I know, I know,” she wipes her tears. “It's fine, don't mind my tears. I just don't want to be alone. I will be lonely and cry myself to sleep at night.” “I know, Stacy, it hurts me to leave you, but I will return almost immediately. It's only going to be for a few days, I promise.” He says. She nods her head, trying her hardest to smile and pretend that everything is fine, but even she doesn't understand why she won't stop crying. She has no idea that it's just her hormones that are all over the place. She is sad that her husband is going to be away, but her pregnancy hormones make her exaggerate everything. She doesn't know
