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

in her fifties.

Looking at the two strangers outside the door, she immediately became vigilant and grabbed the door frame warily.
She asked in a deep voice, “Who are you?”

Jordan smiled.
“Ma’am, we’re here to see Sarah.”

When the middle-aged woman heard the name ‘Sarah’, a trace of panic flashed across her face, and she quickly said, “You’ve come to the wrong place.
There’s no one here named Sarah.”

Then she wanted to close the door.

But her speed was naturally no match for that of Jordan, who had extremely quick reflexes.
As soon as she moved her hand, he immediately grabbed the door frame, making it impossible for her to close it.

“You… what are you doing? I… I’m warning you.
This is my home.
If you dare to trespass and get up to anything funny, I’ll definitely sue you! If you dare to do anything in broad daylight, as long as I shout, someone will immediately come here and grab you! Hurry up and leave!” The middle-aged woman was obviously panicking, but she still pretended to be calm and threatened him.

Jordan grinned.
“Ma’am, we’re not crooks.
We’re here to look for Sarah.
We just have some questions for her.
We won’t do anything bad, so rest assured!”

Although Jordan usually had a roguish smile, he now wanted to get into the good books of this middle-aged woman to reduce her vigilance, so he smiled obediently.

The middle-aged woman was a bit skeptical, but she was still clutching the door frame tightly, not daring to let anyone in.

Lucas walked over and handed a stack of bills from his pocket to the middle-aged woman.
“Ma’am, we really don’t mean any harm.
We just want to ask Sarah some questions.
Please ask her to come out.”

Jordan had casually taken this stack of bills from the car just now, and it happened to come in handy now.

There were around 50 bills.

The middle-aged woman’s eyes were immediately glued to the stack of bills.

Most people living in such a shabby place were struggling to make ends meet and earned meager wages.
This stack of bills was worth about a thousand dollars, enough to cover a few months’ worth of living expenses for the woman.

All that was required of her was to ask someone to come out.
It was really effortless.

For people used to being poor, such a temptation was really difficult to resist.

Thus, after being conflicted for a while, the middle-aged woman finally opened the door, reached out to accept the money, and said with some slight embarrassment, “Ah, you are so polite.
It’s just a small favor.
You’re being too kind, haha.”

After smiling, she yelled inside, “Sarah, come out!”

Two seconds later, a female voice sounded inside the house, “Aunt, you called me? Wait a minute.
I’ll be right out!”

After about eight seconds, a woman in her thirties came out from behind the rusty iron door.
She was wiping the water and foam on her hands against her apron.
She seemed to have been washing clothes.

“Aunt, what’s wrong?” the woman asked in bewilderment.

After receiving the money, the middle-aged woman became much more enthusiastic.
She pointed at Lucas and Jordan and said with a cheerful grin, “These two people are here to look for you.
They said that they have questions for you.”

Sarah finally saw the two tall men standing behind the middle-aged woman.
She immediately panicked and waved her hands.
“I… I don’t know them, and I have nothing to say to them! I… I don’t know what they want to ask either.
I still have lots to do, so I’ll get going now!”

Seeming terribly frightened, she immediately turned around, wanting to go back inside.

But the next instant, Jordan suddenly appeared behind her and blocked her from going back into the house.
