Gray Lance: Useless Son-in-law Is The Billionaire General 87
William feels as if the breath in his lungs has suddenly been snatched from his lungs. The people who killed his father are going to be at the party today! His hands turn into fists and Gray immediately notices this. “It's too early to start to avenge your father now.” Gray warns him. “If you strike too early, everything that we have worked for is going to be in vain.” “I will kill him myself before I allow him to ruin that for her.” Alice snarls. Gray takes the suit from her, together with the shoes and the mask. He will change, so that when he walks into the room, no one will notice that he is the same person. The mask has also been specially designed to keep his face hidden from those who he wants to keep in the dark about his identity. “Call me when I'm ready, for now…” Gray looks from Alice and William. “Get familiar with yourself, because from now on, both of you will work together.” Gray leaves the room and Alice sighs as she takes out her phone and aggressively starts t

Gray has been looking forwards to meeting another member of the De Nicola Mafia, and that day is finally here. Dawson smiles as he offers Gray a respectful smile and a handshake. “Mister anonymous! I have been looking forward to the day that I will meet you!” He says. “I bring you greeting from the entire De Nicola family.” “The pleasure is mine, Mister Burke.” He says. “Hope you are enjoying the party?” “Yes, I am, sir.” He says. “I was hoping to have a meeting with you today. The de Nicola family has asked me to bring in some business suggestions for you, and we can both work on it for the benefit of both of us.” “I like the sound of that, Mister Burke. Why don't you speak to my assinat and then maybe we can set something up?” Gray asks. “Have a nice day.” “Sir the son of my boss, Mateo De Nicola, he told his father that he is your friend and have met with him a few times.” Gray stops and shakes his head. “That name doesn't ring a single bell to him, but I look forward to mee

Everyone is surprised by her very strange request. “Mrs Lance, surely you are not talking about the disrespectful couple that insulted you when we were entering this place?” William is mesmerized. “Mrs Lance, I don't think you are in your right mind. Perhaps you have had too much wine and it's altering your thoughts.” But Stacy shakes her head and smirks at them. “I'm fully aware of myself and yes, I know what I am requesting.” “Then why have you asked such a request from me, knowing fully well that they offended you?” The anonymous trillionaire asks. “Because, no matter what, she is still my cousin?” Stacy looks out of the glass walls. From here, she can see everyone downstairs partying. Everyone seems to be having such a great time down there, since even though they are not in the VIP section, it's a great privilege to be accepted into the venue in the first place. But not Wendy, she has been sulking and glaring at Stacy from down there. Even with that, Stacy was feeling so b

Alice and the team notices the number of soldiers who walk in are so many that she is immediately threatened by this. “I didn't know that they would be coming here in such a number.” She mutters. “Do you want me to take them out?” William starts to crack his knuckles. “I can do it, I will do it so fast that you won't even see what happens.” “No, let them come.” The anonymous trillionaire says. “Sir, you and I know that they are up to no good.” Alice turns to him. “Yes, and what happens to our plan if we throw everything away now? I will be waiting in the conference room and both of you will lead them in.” The anonymous trillionaire walks away. Alice sighs and runs her hands over her face. She can't stand the military officers, especially after what they did to her boss. “Are you okay?” William asks her. “No, I'm not.” She adjusts her jacket. “I want to bash their faces in, but Mars clearly doesn't want that.” “Well, we can just look forward to the day that he is going to say

Now, it's time for them to move to business. “Mister anonymous, I don't wish to call you anonymous anymore, since I have seen your face.” General Fargo says. “You are right. My name is Gray Lance.” He says. “The Lance family?” The General mutters. “I haven't heard of that family before.” “You are right.” Gray nods. “I built the name from the ground up, all by myself.” “That just makes me even respect you more, Mister Lance.” The General says. He slides a file to Gray, who doesn't even open it, but slides it over to Alice. General Fargo doesn't like that Gray is involving Alice in their business, but there is nothing that he can do about it. “The government heard that you are working on opening a chemical weapon company.” The General smiles. “I know, you are surprised that with your secret nature, that we found out about it, but we the military have our ways.” Gray smiles too. He is going to allow the General to think that they found out about his chemical weapon company, but

After a successful meeting with General Fargo, Gray goes back to change his suit, and returns to the party like he never left. When he returns to the room, Stacy rushes to him and hits him across the chest. “Where in God's name have you been?!” She yells. “I was praying for you to get back, but you didn't. Where did you go?!” “I'm sorry, Stacy, I'm sorry. I saw an old soldier friend of mine and had to catch up. Why are you so upset, what did I miss?” He smiles at her. Stacy shakes her head and looks away. She is so hurt by his absence, that she doesn't want to look at him right now. “Did you know that was rude?! We promised to thank him together, but you were nowhere to be found!” She huffs. “I'm sorry, wifey. I truly am.” He holds up her chin and gives her a kiss. He is trying his hardest to cheer her up, but she won't be consoled. He pulls her into a hug and kisses her again on the head. “I didn't mean to hurt you, or disrespect the anonymous trillionaire like that.” He wh

Hearing the photographer suddenly speak makes everyone turn around to look. Of course, they all have been listening to Wendy go on and on about her being an acquaintance of the anonymous trillionaire, so they are all invested in the story. Wendy almost chokes on her drink when she hears that the man has called her a lair. “What did you say to me, you fucking idiot!” She shouts at him. “How dare you even think that you can speak to me?!” “Don't listen to her, she has been lying! Didn't get in here till the last hour and since she got in, she has not stopped yapping!” Wendy scoffs so loudly at his audacity. “Look at this little boy! He thinks that he is something because the anonymous trillionaire gave you the contract to take pictures?! Don't worry, I will get you fired!” Everyone in the room gasps and the ladies immediately turn to the photographer. “Won't you beg the miss for forgiveness? She can ruin your life if she tells the anonymous trillionaire about this.” “IF…” the an

Stacy is shaking because all eyes are on her. She doesn't want to get involved in this, because she knows how Wendy behaves, but the ladies start to gesture to her. “Miss, is it true that you know the anonymous trillionaire?” One asks. Stacy lost her tongue for a quick second, but so that she doesn't look stupid in front of these people, she immediately musters the courage to speak up. “Well, yes.” She nods. “My husband and I, we work directly for the anonymous trillionaire!” “So, you know him personally?” “We live in his house!” This amazes everyone in the crowd. “How does one get such a privilege?” “She is so pretty, that's why the anonymous trillionaire chose her and her Mister to live in his house!” Stacy keeps a smile on her face, but she is very nervous. The ladies come to her, trying their best to become friends with her. They snap pictures with her, tagging her on social media and letting everyone know that she is an acquaintance of the anonymous trillionaire! In le

Stacy did not expect for him to say yes, and so easily, she couldn't believe her ears. “Are you sure, Gray?” She chuckles nervously. “It's five million dollars, that's a lot of money.” “A whole lot of money, but not for you.” He says. “Now, do you want it in cash or cheque? William can drive very quickly, he will go to the bank and get it for you–” Stacy throws herself against him sobbing as she hugs him very tightly. Where has he been all her life? She has suffered so much and many times, he fell into depression. He would have saved her so much pain. “Thank you, Gray.” She sobs. “You're the best thing that has ever happened to me. Because of you, I can attend my grandfather's remembrance party.”Gray is surprised by her hug, but he chuckles and hugs her back. “I told you already, Stacy, you're my wife and you deserve everything. Now, wipe your tears. I will attend your grandfather's remembrance party with you.” “You will?” Her eyes widen. “I will stand with you as you remem

Stacy is woken up by a phone call the next morning. Gray is not in bed with her, he slept in his study because he said that he has a lot of work. She keeps running her hands over her eyes, she can't believe what's happening. The person that is calling her is no other than Ms Pam Sanford. Pam Sanford is the name of her grandfather's personal assistant from years ago. The last time she saw Pam was when her grandfather died and the entire family had to come together for his burial. She jumps out of the bed and happily picks up the call. She can't believe that it's Pam! “Oh my God, Ms Pam!” Stacy shrieks. “Oh my sweet darling child!” Pam is so pleased. “How are you doing, Stacy?” “I am fine, Ms Pam, How are you?” she asks.“Fine, my darling. I have been living in the countryside all these years, but I am in the city because guess what?! It's the sixth anniversary of your grandfather's death!” Stacy's hand immediately goes to her chest and her eyes are immediately filled with tear

Just before two hours is done, they are done with the meeting. Gray is more than pleased with himself, he will now head back home to his wife. He glances at his wrist watch as he gets into the car and they start to drive back to the airport. “That was very quick, sir.” William smiles. “I was very time conscious. I can't break my promise to Stacy.” “She texted me because she wanted to know if I have any food that I don't care for. It looks like she is making the biggest meal.” Gray smiles and shakes his head. “That's Stacy, she is always taking care of everyone.” They are driving past the protest and Gray looks at the people with concern. He remembers being their savior, the savior that everyone thinks has gone missing, but he is going to save them. Without even showing his identity he will stand up and save them from the terrible president that is ruling them now. They come to a store and Gray asks them to stop. He goes into the shop and decides to buy something for his wif

Even the Generals are dumbfounded. They are so used to the Mars doing everything for them, that they don't even know how to strategize anymore. “That's a very good plan, sir.” The Generals look at each other and nod. “Bunch of morons! I give you many bonuses and you can't even come up with a good plan?!” The president shouts at them. “Stressing the richest man in the world to come up with a strategy for us?!” “Sorry, your Excellency.” They all bow. He turns to Gray and forces himself to smile. “Don't be angry, Mister Lance, were you in any way, in the army before this?” He asks. Gray just smiles. “I’ve shot a hunting gun a few times, if that counts as anything.” The president laughs again. This time around, he gestures for the soldiers to guard them as he starts to walk with Gray. He is done with the Generals, he wants to have a secret meeting with Gray now as they walk out of the room, and around the house. William follows him too, walking ahead of the soldiers. He will ref

They are all laughing now, Gray laughs with them so much that they think that they have finally turned the anonymous trillionaire into their friend. William is standing behind Gray, looking back and forth in an alert manner. He has never seen a room full of more scary men. These were the men that killed his father, together with this psychopath that is running this nation. “So, you took care of him, the man that is supposed to be the greatest General in the army?” Gray asks. “Yes!” The president brags. “I killed him with my own tactics, and he fell right into my trap because he is not as smart as he thinks he is!” The Generals nod in agreement. They were all jealous of the Mars and all his prowess, so they allowed the president to use them to kill him. “Well, sounds like he had to be taken care of so I am glad for that. Now, can we move to the next topic?” Gray smiles. “Yes, yes, yes…” the president nods. “We need those weapons immediately because as you can see, these little

Each time that Gray thinks that the government has shown him enough incompetence, they show him even a worst display of their stupidity! This is the same man that announced that they should go to war against the country of Deholt, the country that is known to have one of the best military in the world! If Mars was still in the army, it would have been as easy as breaking a thin twing, but now that the Mars is missing, Deholt is going to finish them off in one battle! The president, the stupid coward of a man, he angered the citizens and he has now run to hide in the basement of his mansion? He has never heard something more silly in his life! “Mister Lance, please don't think that the basement sanctuary is just a poorly dug hole in the ground, it's a very luxurious place.” The soldiers assure Gray. “I have only two hours to spend here and I am returning back to Silverview.” Gray glances at his wrist watch. “Take me to the president, right now.” They all get into the elevator and

What?! Gray cannot be in the state capital of the country tonight! He promised his wife that he is going to return for lunch! How is he supposed to return for lunch if he has to go to the capital now? “Oh, I don't think that Mrs Lance would be happy if we went to the capital together.” William shakes his head. Alice frowns at him. She hasn't warmed up to William just yet, so she casts an unfriendly glare at him. “Who said anything about you going? You are still under probation, I don't appreciate you inserting yourself in the situation!” She snaps. William immediately looks down and apologizes. He knows that Alice doesn't like him, but he knows that he must have to win her over, if he will win her over. “I'm sorry Miss Alice, I didn't mean to jump the gun like that.” “Make the plane ready immediately.” Andrew says. “We will be using the private strip and since I can't have the entire security team with me, as that will bring up suspicion, William will go with me.” “Sir, he is

Stacy is very disheartened, she can't believe that Gray is taking up such dangerous jobs to be able to provide for them. She makes up her mind that the next time she sees the anonymous trillionaire, she is going to fall on her knees and beg him to have mercy. Gray is the only one who has given her life meaning, she can't afford to lose him. She wakes up early and decides to make some breakfast for Gray and William, but as she is in the kitchen making pancakes, she immediately is attracted by the television. “Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, the news reaching us from the military headquarters now is that the country of Deholt has attracted the northern part of the army.” Stacy's hand flies to her mouth in shock, she can't believe what's happening now! William and Gray descend the stairs, just waking up too. “Are you guys seeing the news?” Stacy asks with concern. “This is such a misfortune, we just won the last war and for the first time, Westland has had a little bit of pe
