Karen sounded very right, but Cheyenne could not listen to her words any longer.
“Bu, no matter how much money Lucas has, it's all his. It has nothing to do with us! Also, I said that I would not divorce. Why do you keep bringing this up? ”
After saying that, Cheyenne carried the sleepy Amelia and headed upstairs.
Karen was so enraged by Cheyenne's reaction that she was speechless for a long time. He then faced the stairs and shouted unhappily, “For whom am I doing this? That's all for you! The useless one finally had money now. If you don't hurry and pick it up before dumping it, what are you holding it for? Seriously, you didn't listen to anything I said! “
William, who drank too much alcohol, lay on the couch in a trance. Jolted awake by Karen's sharp scream, she snapped in annoyance, “Why are you yelling? You're too noisy. ”
Karen immediately vented her anger at him. “All you do is get drunk and go berserk! You are so useless! I'm so worried for this family, and you all make me angry. I'm so unlucky to marry a useless person like you. ”.
Karen wailed as the door suddenly opened with a loud creak, and Lucas walked in.
Ever since the last time she paid Karen's rent, she turned a blind eye and didn't stop her from entering the house. In any case, he wouldn't do anything to Cheyenne. At most, he would play with Amelia. In addition to criticizing and scolding her occasionally, Karen would treat her like she was transparent most of the time.
But everything is different now. Since Lucas was so generous with giving him fifteen thousand dollars earlier, it meant he definitely had more cash. But he never mentioned it before. Karen obviously won't be able to tolerate it.
He just doesn't like Lucas!
Karen looked up and was just about to scold him, but she just nodded at the two of them and instantly disappeared.
Lucas leaves before Karen can taunt him, angering him even more.
“Do you have any manners? Why don't you say hello to an older person? Hmph, indeed, you are humble and disrespectful! You even hide your personal savings from us. Hah, you're just a daughter-in-law who lives in us. How dare you hide your money from us ?! You're overreacting! ” Karen unceasingly nags in the living room and accidentally slams a broom into the trash.
Lucas was sitting by the bed in Cheyenne's room, carefully cradling Amelia who was sound asleep and washing her feet for him. He completely ignored the scolding coming from the lower floors.
At first, he would still be angry with Karen's harsh words. But now, he had long since realized that there was no point getting angry over his words.
But Karen is Cheyenne's mother. So, Lucas would treat him with basic respect, but that's it.
However, Cheyenne was very embarrassed. Even he felt his mother's words were very heartless.
“Sorry, my mom.. she's going through menopause, so she's been very grumpy and irritable lately. Don't be so loud. Cheyenne racked his brain to find a reason for his mother's actions.
Lucas smiled and said nothing. Instead, she took a soft towel and used it to wipe her daughter's legs dry before taking her to bed and tucking them under the blanket.
After seeing Lucas do all this, Cheyenne felt even more embarrassed.
A few days ago, he had a high fever after a rainstorm. Amelia worries about him but also does not want to leave Lucas, so Lucas takes Amelia to the room and sleeps on a mattress on the floor.
Seemingly seeing how uncomfortable Cheyenne was, Lucas suddenly said, “I have something to take care of tonight, so I'm leaving. ”
Before he said anything, he left.
Although he also wanted to stay and try to spend more time with her, he knew that they both needed time and he could not get too excited.
There's no peace at Carter's tonight.
During this banquet tonight, the Carter family was humiliated in a way they had never experienced before.
First, Karen the shameless coward bragged and humiliated them at the door. Afterwards, they cross paths with the officer who deliberately ignored them and even specifically arranged for them to sit at a small, shabby table near the entrance. As a result, they became the laughingstock of all the leading figures in Orange County!
Afterwards, Flynn Davis of the Stardust Corporation gave a speech, and many families and businesses were vying to team up with Brilliance Corporation, which was like a slap in their face!
Brilliance Corporation was still theirs a few days ago!
Of course, the Cheyenne and Karen families annoyed them the most!
They were scum that was expelled from the Carter family and not recognized by them. But they managed to establish a relationship with Sawyers, the richest family in Orange County, and even flaunted it. They will never be able to tolerate this!
“Grandfather, are we going to let Cheyenne, her sister, and the shameless bitch Karen continue to be haughty and stomp on us?” The more Bryce thought about it, the more furious he became as he punched the sofa hard.
His right wrist, previously broken by Lucas, was still wrapped in thick gauze.
In short, he felt the Cheyenne family was terrible, and he wanted them all to die!
Dominic's face was also gloomy. He had always been in control, so after becoming the head of the family, he could barely tolerate any insubordination.
After he banished the Cheyenne family, not only did they live a miserable life, but they even became acquainted with the Sawyers. How could the arrogant Dominic Carter accept this?
“Bryce, is it true that their family will become Sawyers-in-law?” Ask Dominic.
Despite being angry, Bryce nodded. “Grandfather, when I went to their house earlier, I saw Charlotte driving a limited edition luxury Lamborghini that cost at least a million dollars. In addition, I even heard that Sawyers gave them more than just sports cars. They also gave them a villa, some shops, and a million in cash. All gifts are sent to them in a box! Moreover, at today's banquet, I tried to make things difficult for them, but the Sawmill sent someone to say that there was a private room reserved for them. It seems to be true. ”
Dominic remained silent, but he looked even more furious.
At this moment, one of the Carters suddenly asked, “The objects belong to Carters, so why should we give them to them?”
