The Formidable Son-In-Law: The Charismatic Lucas Gray-Chapter 1190 - 1190 Distinguished Guest

1190 Distinguished Guest

Vanessa frowned. “That won’t do. Peter and I came back today, and we happened to get together with you guys. You’re Peter’s friends. How can we settle for a random private room? Besides, we agreed that it was Peter’s treat today. How can we squeeze into this tiny room?”

It cost about 10,000 dollars to book a large VIP room here, which was peanuts to a wealthy heiress like Vanessa. In fact, she would feel upset and displeased if she couldn’t book one.

Peter chimed in, “Yeah, we’re not short of money. We have to get a larger and better room!”

He said to Silas, “Speaking of which, I’ve spent the last two years out of town, so I don’t know much about the nightlife here. I only know that Club Aurora is the best place for it in DC now. What’s the best private room here? Is it the prestigious King’s Room you mentioned?”

Silas nodded and sighed before saying, “Yes, the King’s Room here is the best, and it’s the only ultra luxurious room here. It’s at least four times the size of this one!

“But I heard that the owner of Club Aurora changed hands this morning. In the past, you’d only need to pay about fifteen grand to book the King’s Room. But starting today, there’s a new rule saying that the King’s Room is reserved exclusively for the club’s most prestigious guests and that it won’t be open to others for any amount of money!”

Hearing this, Vanessa sneered. “A private room that isn’t open regardless of the amount of money? Haha, that’s the first time I’ve heard of such a rule in DC! I refuse to believe that they won’t open it for a million dollars! This is nothing but a gimmick to raise the price!”

Peter frowned too. “Club Aurora has a new owner? I remember it used to belong to the Waltons. Who does it belong to now?”

Allie replied, “I saw a red LED sign with the ‘The Parkers’ written on it outside the club. This family should have taken over.”

She had strong observation skills and had noticed this detail when they entered.

“The Parkers?”

Everyone felt bewildered.

None of the top families in DC had the name Parker.

Vanessa asked doubtfully, “Is there a Parker family among the upper-class circle of DC?”

Silas shook his head. “I know a little bit about this family. Actually, the Parkers aren’t from DC but from California. Over the past few months, they’ve been developing extremely quickly and opened countless stores and businesses in the US. For example, the Hampton Restaurant, a top dining spot in DC now, belongs to them.

“Apart from this, they also have some jewelry and antique stores. The Parkers have always kept a low profile and don’t do anything conspicuous, so many people in DC aren’t aware of them.

“But just last night, I heard the Parkers offended a big family, and there were dozens of trucks and thousands of people gathered outside the Hampton Restaurant. Many people thought that they were in trouble and that they would be eradicated from DC.

“But this morning, many people discovered that the Hampton Restaurant was not only fine, but many of the businesses in DC now have an additional red LED sign with ‘The Parkers’ on it.

“These businesses used to belong to the Waltons, which means that the Waltons probably lost to the Parkers last night and the Parkers have taken over their businesses instead!

“But many people are saying that the Parkers aren’t actually that strong. They’re just managing these businesses on behalf of a big shot who’s so powerful that even the eight top families don’t dare to offend!”

Silas was a local of DC, and his family was decently affluent. Although they weren’t that rich and powerful, they were well-informed in various aspects.

After Silas revealed all the information he knew, many people in the room were surprised.

The mysterious Parker family actually took over so many of the Waltons’ businesses overnight.

The Waltons were not pushovers but one of the eight top families of DC, and they had owned half the entertainment joints in the state!

Yet they transferred all their businesses to the Parkers without creating a scene in DC. This just meant that the powerful figure or force behind the Parkers was really not to be trifled with.

“So, let’s not try to move to the King’s Room today, lest we create unnecessary trouble for ourselves. We’ll have to make do though,” Silas said.

Peter fell silent in thought. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Sitting on a couch by the wall, Lucas smirked a little.

If these people knew that the big shot behind the Parkers they were discussing was sitting right here, whom they had insulted as a penniless loser, who knew how they would react?

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the private room, and a middle-aged man in a black suit with a chrome-plated ‘manager’ tag walked in.

“Mr. Gray, welcome to Club Aurora! The King’s Room on the top floor has been prepared for you. You and your friends may enter at any time! As the manager, I would like to apologize for failing to receive you immediately! Please forgive me.” The manager bowed to Lucas respectfully.

This scene dumbfounded everyone.

They had just learned from Silas that only the most distinguished guests of Club Aurora could enter the King’s Room, while everyone else would be refused entry regardless of how much they spent. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

However, the manager of Club Aurora actually came over personally to invite Lucas to the prestigious and luxurious King’s Room.

If the manager had said this to Peter or Vanessa, they naturally wouldn’t be shocked.

But he actually said it to Lucas and even bowed to him.

In their eyes, Lucas was just a penniless loser. How could he possibly be among the most distinguished guests of Club Aurora?

Lucas frowned slightly.

When he entered earlier and the two beautiful women at the entrance wanted to lead him to the King’s Room, Lucas had already turned them down. He didn’t expect the manager to show up suddenly and invite him to the King’s Room.

In that case, wouldn’t these people suspect his identity?
