Gray Lance: Useless Son-in-law Is The Billionaire General 235
“This is the wildest thing I have ever seen in my life! Gray is cheating on his wife!” Mateo chuckles. “What the fuck is wrong with you? I thought that you were a saint or something!” Gray sighs and runs his hand through his hair. Mateo has totally misunderstood this, but he won't even allow Gray to open his mouth to speak, before he starts to talk again. “I never thought I would find you in a compromising position like this.” He shakes his head. Melody is taken aback. She is not the richest man in the world, she is just the president's daughter, but she won't want anyone to speak to her like this! “Gray, are we listening to the same thing? Are you going to allow this man to speak to you like this?” She scoffs. “You are the richest man in the world and you are going to stand by and watch this?” Mateo almost falls over with laughter. He laughs so hard that he is bent, holding his belly. “Hahaha! That's what he told you? He lied to you that he is the anonymous trillionaire becau

Stacy's jaw is on the ground. The woman throws her bag on the chair and throws her coat on the ground. “Pick that up!” She orders. She turns around, looking at the house with her finger pressed against her chin. “I don't think I like this colour, we will have to repaint.” Melody mutters. “Excuse me?” Stacy blinks. “Yeah, excuse you.” Melody hiss. “For someone who works for my husband, you are very slow in the head! I said I don't like this colour and we are going to decorate!” Stacy is stunned. She wasn't expecting this at all. Gray didn't call her to tell her that anyone is coming, so she can't be sure. She can't believe that the anonymous trillionaire would want to marry someone like this woman. “Um, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get you angry, but you have to prove to me that you are really from the anonymous trillionaire. I have to make sure, just for security reasons.” The lady sighs and pulls out her phone. “I can't believe that he would allow a fool like you to stay in

Gray stops what he is doing, and he looks at the screen of the phone. “I'm sorry, who did you say is in the house right now?” “Melody Brody! She said she is going to throw us out because she is getting married to the anonymous trillionaire, and she is going to change the house! I can't believe that the anonymous trillionaire would want to marry someone like her…” Gray shuts his eyes and drops his head into his hand.The president left the country yesterday, and even though Melody tried to get in contact with him, Alice refused to give his number to her. He thought that she had left the country, but no, she found his house and is now harassing his wife. Stacy is crying on the other side of the phone, and Gray immediately stands up in anger. “I'm going to take care of this, Stacy. Trust me.”“I don't think you can take care of it, Gray.” She sobs. “The anonymous trillionaire is going to get married to her, and we are going to be fucked. We are going to be homeless! Can you beg the

“Get your hands off me, you fool!” Melody hiss. “Do you know who I am? I will destroy your life!” But William is not even bothered at all by her vile words. “Miss Brody, if you don't get into the car immediately, I am going to have to pick you up and throw you in.” “Do you know who I am?! My father is the president of this country, and I'm going to marry the anonymous trillionaire! Do you even realize that you are already dead for even daring to talk to me like that–” William looks to the left and then to the right, he sees that no one is looking at them, he picks her up and throws her into the car. She keeps on yelling and beating at the window. William gets into the car and drives away. He keeps driving, but she keeps on cursing him out. “You know what? I am going to call the head of my security and my father is going to kill you for even daring to touch me!” She yells. She takes out her phone, but William takes the phone from her. “Sit tight and save your strength. This is

Melody has suddenly lost her voice. She holds her hands over her mouth because she knows that she is done for. She didn't know that she was his wife! She didn't even act like she was the wife of the richest man in the world! “Gray, I'm sorry, I didn't know that she is your wife. She said that she is the wife of the housekeeper, so I got confused – she lied to me.” “Does that give you the audacity to speak to her so rudely and also slap her?! Who do you think you are?!” He shouts in her face. She takes a few steps back in fear. Her desperation has forced her to do something that she is definitely going to regret for the rest of her life…“Look, I didn't mean to cause any trouble for anyone. All I want was to be your wife and I went to see the famous house, but I met this woman and I got jealous that another woman was in your house…” “Except she is my wife and you are an intruder who hasn't been told no in her life!” He blasts her. “You can't blame me! I didn't know, I was ignora

Melody finds herself chuckling, she can't bring herself to believe this. She looks at all of them, and then bursts into an unbearable fit of laughter. “Hahaha! I knew that this was one huge joke! I knew it! How can the richest man in the world also be the freedom fighter of the country?” She laughs. “There is no way that powerful soldier is you. I'm sorry, but I won't allow myself to be stupid enough to believe it. Alice and William are amused by her stupidity. She is too daft to even think right because if she did, she would know that he is telling the truth. How else can the most wanted soldier be mysterious and undetectable to the government? except he has a bastard amount of money to keep himself under the radar of even the government. of course it's only the richest man in the world! “It's alright, Miss Brody, you don't even need to believe. That's not even why we are here. You assaulted my pregnant wife, and she said that she wishes you were dead, and since I love her so

Melody cannot believe what she has heard. She looks at the passport again, but it only makes her confusion even worse. “But I don't understand. Why do I need a new identity? I already told you that I am sorry. I will turn a new leaf, just let me go.” Gray only chuckles. “You will go alright. But not just home. As we speak, my team is logging you into the records as Agnes Smith, and even booking a ticket for you to travel to the Bermuda islands.” Melody face screws. The Bermuda islands is one of the poorest countries in the world, so why does Gray want her to travel there? “I don't think my father is going to like that very much,” she mutters. “Why can't you just allow me to come home?” “Because the Bermuda islands are going to be your home from now on. You will be left with just enough money to get you through a week, and then you will have to work to earn a living. It's the poorest country in the world, and that means that you will have to work very hard in the mines to save you

“The president has just announced a state of emergency because his daughter has been considered officially missing.” A newscaster says. “It was suspected that Miss Melody Brody sneaked out of the country, so she can't be tracked using her passport. Please, if you have any information about the young lady, the presidency, and the entire Brody family would appreciate it.” Stacy's jaw is on the ground. How can that lady be missing? She remembers when she came here and harassed her and she wished that melody was dead. Did she do this? Did she wish the president's daughter away? Gray comes from the kitchen, dressed formally, all ready for work, but he is holding a cup of tea for her. Stacy smiles, he looks very handsome dressed like that. That's why she got pregnant very fast…“Hey,” he gives her a kiss and drops a special cup of tea in front of her. He has taken it upon himself to work hard everyday and prepare breakfast for her. All she has to do is eat, garden, walk around to exe

Worry is not what's on Gray's mind right now. Instead he gently walks out of the room and to his office. He needs to get his laptop. He takes out his phone and gives a call to Alice Yashin. He knows that it's very late at night, but he needs something from her. Like he expected, she picks up immediately. “Hello, sir. Is everything okay? Is Stacy and the baby fine?” “Yeah, they are both sleeping. I just need you to send some files to me.” He says to her. She is quiet from uncertainty at the other end. “But, sir, you are a new father and you are not supposed to be working. Just tell me what to do, and I will handle it.” She says. She is being very generous, but he won't allow that. They have worked so hard for months to see that his mission is fulfilled, and now he is going to handle this one by himself. “Don't worry about it, Alice, I just need you to do one single thing for me. Send all the files we have on the Hyena to me immediately.” “The Hyena, sir? But the man is dead.”

On the fifth of July, a day that will forever be remembered as the day that Gray Lance took over the country, but also as the day that his first child was born. “... The commander in chief of our country has just welcomed a baby girl, Amanda Marie Lance. Congratulations to the people of Westland…” Gray is sitting on the couch, as his eyes watch the almost mute television, where the report of the birth of his daughter has just been broadcasted…She is in his hands, so small and delicate, and she is the most perfect thing in the entire world. He hasn't taken his eyes off her, he is even too scared to breathe too loud. Stacy is totally exhausted, even though the birth was fortunately very short for her. She is lying in the bed, having a deep sleep.Gray is going to forever worship the ground that his wife walks on from this day forward. The pain he saw her go through in the labor room told him that women are not mere people, but super beings with great strength.” His daughter makes

William is explaining everything to her, but she doesn't understand what is going on yet.Why should she be the one to deliver the speech, when she was just helping the anonymous trillionaire's wife? She opens her mouth with a small gap, but no words can come out. Everyone is kindly smiling at her, the way people would look at their savior…She sighs and presses her hand against her forehead. “But, I can't deliver the speech? I'm not the Mars' wife, that's not even possible.” William smiles at her. “Oh, Stacy. You have no idea how possible anything can be.” That's when it strikes her with a heavy beating of her chest. No,no,no. “Gray is the Mars?” She whispers, almost to herself. William looks so proud, he nods slowly. “But…” she stops. Gray is the Mars!! Gray is the anonymous trillionaire! She has been married to the richest man in the world the whole time, and she didn't even know that. This is big news to her, and in front of so many people. She would need like a month to

Stacy is very surprised to see her Aunt, but she is even more surprised to see her Auntie kneeling in front of her and begging for mercy. “Please, I was blinded by the devil!” She cries. “I didn't know that you were going to turn out so great. Remember that I gave you a roof over your head and fed you for years. Please have pity on your old and wrinkled auntie. The truth is that Wendy and Mateo told their family that Gray and Stacy are not ordinary people, but the richest and most powerful couple in the country. Mr and Mrs de Nicola believe it very easily because they got their house back. They were happy and satisfied, even though they didn't get everything they had before, and they made sure to stop by the Gray corporation headquarters to thank him. Mrs Blanchard did not believe it at all. “Are you trying to tell me that the disgraceful son-in-law of the family is so rich? Please, spare me that nonsense!” Wendy continued to try to get her mother to change her mind, but her moth

No one is even opposed to this, and everyone is very happy. General Micheal retires happily, after everything, he is sure that he will now live a happy and peaceful life. Everyone is preparing for July fifth, for it's going to be the day that the Mars, who everyone now knows is General Gray Lance, will be sworn in.

No one, except Brody, knows that this man is the anonymous trillionaire, but as soon as they see the fear in Brody's eyes, they immediately know. Brody fired up to three shots and none of them hit this man. He drops his gun in fright and starts to back into the wall. “You are not human!” He shivers. “You are not human, you fucking bastard!” He tries to find something to shield himself because from the look in Gray's eyes, he knows that he is about to be killed. He throws a chair in Gray's direction, but when he sees that doesn't work, he grabs the almost frightened newscaster lady and uses her as a human shield. She shrieks and he immediately slaps his hand over her mouth. “Shut up! If you come any closer to me, I am going to shoot her, you hear me!” Everyone is shaken, they don't want to lose another of their colleagues. They expect that the Mars would throw away his gun and negotiate with the crazy man, but that's not what happens. Gray casually checks his gun to see if it's

Once Brody had said the single line that he had rehearsed, he expected for the professionals to take over. Yes, even though he has just barged into the place, shot a bunch of people, and traumatized the hell out of them, he expects for them to still be very professional and come up with the best questions. He sighs with anger when he sees that the newscasters are just holding on to each other like scared chickens, and trying their hardest not to make eye contact with him. “Now, listen to me, you two fools,” he picks up the gun again. “I didn't go through all that trouble for you two to be fucking dumb, so you better get your shit together, or I am going to blow your fucking brains all over the place.” The lady shuts her eyes as more tears pours out. She is sobbing, she has to press her hands over her mouth to keep the sound out. The man has to summon courage, else they are going to be dead, so he whispers to his colleague and pushes her to the side. He takes out his handkerchief

Brody feels like he has been caught up in a crossroad, the only man that would have been able to help him turns out to be the enemy himself. He watched the official announcement, now the whole world knows the truth about what has happened. He doesn't have anywhere else to go, he doesn't have anything to use to save himself. He still has a few tens of supporters, they are afraid to come out and say so because they fear Mars and also the judgement from their friends and families. Some of them have cut off contact with him, and this breaks his heart even more. He can't flee the country too, because he knows that he is going to be caught at the airport, or as soon as he approaches any border.Brody knows that surrendering won't work, not after the many things that he and his family did. So, what will he do now? He decides to go on live TV and say his mind. Brody is surely a master manipulator and he knows that if he plays his cards right, he will gather the gullible lots among the W

Surely, the Mars/anonymous trillionaire is a very smart man, because he has managed to keep his identity for so long, even though he has two different sides. No wonder he has been so devoted to their country! If he can turn his company into a trillion dollar one, then they can trust him with the country and they are sure that he is going to do a very good job with it. Stacy is one of the people that are blown away by this news. She sits down in front of the television in her room, as she watches a newscaster compare an image of the Mars and the anonymous trillionaire. “...now if you look at both pictures very closely, you will see that they are both equal in height. Don't miss the broad shoulders, or the mighty biceps that seem to be spilling out of his shirt….” Stacy scoffs. “Is this now a thirst trap? This is a very serious matter!” Wend
