Cheyenne looked at Lucas in great disbelief.

It was the first time she saw Lucas’s impressive combat abilities and the first time he came to help her when she was being bullied. All of a sudden, Cheyenne looked at Lucas with a complicated gaze.

The security officers looked at each other in dismay, at a loss for what to do. Logically speaking, they ought to follow Bryce’s orders and throw Cheyenne’s family out. But now, Bryce was thrown out like a dead pig, and they were fearful of Lucas, who looked like someone not to be trifled with.

“Get lost!” Lucas roared.

All the security officers’ hearts palpitated, and they scurried away anxiously.

Bryce was helped up. His other hand was holding his broken wrist, and his head was covered in cold sweat. With a sinister gaze, he threatened, “I won’t let you off! Just you wait!”

They drove away in their cars.

Karen’s hair and clothes were in a mess after being yanked around during the chaotic struggle just now. She randomly combed her hair with her fingers. And ignoring her daughters, who had been mistreated, she immediately dashed over to Lucas.

“Who told you to hit Bryce? He’s Dominic Carter’s precious grandson. If you hit him, Dominic Carter isn’t going to let us off. You good-for-nothing, all you do is cause trouble everywhere! If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t have been kicked out by the Carters! It’s all your fault, you jinx! Get lost!” Karen reached out and was about to slap Lucas.

“Mother!” Charlotte hurriedly stopped her. “Why didn’t you rush out like this when Bryce grabbed Cheyenne by the hair and bullied her? If Lucas hadn’t come and chased Bryce away, Cheyenne would have been bullied badly!”

“Do you think your grandfather will let us off after he beat Bryce up?” Karen questioned. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

“All you do is worry about being blamed by Grandpa. Will Grandpa let us off just because Lucas doesn’t hit Bryce?” Angered by Karen’s words, Charlotte flew into a rage. “Before he came, we were already getting bullied! Do you want us to kneel down in front of Bryce and beg him for forgiveness so that Grandpa won’t blame us?!” 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

“What does a girl like you know? Bryce and your grandfather are not to be provoked. Otherwise, our family will be kicked out!”

“If we get kicked out, so be it! Who wants to stay with the Carters and get bullied every day?! Anyway, Cheyenne and I can work to earn money to provide for you guys!” Charlotte was extremely disgusted with Bryce and the others.

Cheyenne’s eyes were full of fatigue, and she was extremely exhausted, so she couldn’t help but sway unsteadily.

Lucas rushed forward to hold her.

Cheyenne looked at Lucas with a vulnerable gaze. “I’m so tired. Can I trust you with what you said previously?”

Lucas nodded and said with a gentle yet sharp gaze, “Yes. I said that I won’t let anyone bully you again in the future. As long as you want something, I’ll get it for you.”

Cheyenne closed her eyes, and tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Looking at her tears, Lucas felt heartache. When he thought about how the Carters were bullying her, his expression turned cold.

“Wait for me.” Lucas looked deeply at Cheyenne and then turned around to leave.

After ‘lecturing’ Charlotte, Karen saw Lucas walking out in the blink of an eye, and she couldn’t help but curse. “Do you see that? He’s the first one to run away after he got us into trouble because he knows that we’ve offended your grandfather and the others! But you still believe him. You guys are foolish!

“We were doing fine before, and Cheyenne was just about to discuss marriage with Seth when he suddenly came and caused such a huge mess! Now that we’re going to be chased away and he’s not going to get any benefits anymore, he immediately decided to flee! How can anyone be so shameless? Previously, he went missing for six years. How long is he going to go missing for this time?

“Cheyenne, take a careful look at this person. Divorce him and marry a better man!”

Karen’s words were like daggers stabbing into Cheyenne’s heart. Can I still trust him? He made promises, but will he really come back again?

Bang!

Thunder rumbled deafeningly in the sky full of gloomy clouds. In the blink of an eye, it began raining heavily.

The Carters were in low spirits.

“Cheyenne, go and beg your grandfather! Beg him to withdraw his order and not chase us away! If we really get kicked out, how can we secure a foothold in Orange County?” Karen tugged Cheyenne’s arm.

Extremely anxious, Charlotte exclaimed, “Mom! How can you force my sister like this?”

“Cheyenne, your father and I are not very capable, and we’ve been relying on the Carters’ dividends to get by. I’m already old. If we really get chased out now, it’s going to be humiliating. Cheyenne, go and beg your grandfather,” William said to Cheyenne after staying silent for a long time.

“Dad! Why are you acting like this too?! Your pride matters, but so does Cheyenne’s!” Charlotte looked at her father in shock and disappointment.

Cheyenne was extremely upset. She bit her lip hard and stared at her parents. “Fine, I’ll listen to you and go beg them!”

Her eyes turned red, and she got up to dash into the rain, her tears mixing with the raindrops on her face.

“Cheyenne!” Charlotte panicked and was about to dash out, but Karen stopped her.

“Why are you so insensible?!” Karen roared at Charlotte.

Charlotte watched as her thin and weak sister vanished into the rain.

“You guys are too much!” Charlotte hollered at her parents furiously with a look of disappointment. She was so angry that she was about to cry.

Outside the gates of the Carter residence...

“Mr. Carter, are we really not going to let her in? It’s raining so heavily out there...” asked the servant taking pity on the thin and disheveled Cheyenne kneeling outside the iron gates and swaying unsteadily.

“Hmph, she deserves it!” Bryce was sitting in a luxurious and warm hall, appreciating the pathetic state that Cheyenne was in outside the glass window. There was a white bandage around his wrist that was still hurting. Whenever he felt pain in his arm, he would grow even more resentful, and he would feel some joy from staring at the woman kneeling outside.

This is the consequence you have to bear for hitting me! Even though Cheyenne was kneeling outside, he was glad about it!

Upstairs, Dominic Carter was also staring at the figure outside with a straight face, not revealing any emotions at all.
