Chapter 419: Don’t Know Any Better
Nikki was truly green with envy and jealous of Cheyenne for being so lucky.
She’s a married woman and used goods. Yet she managed to charm Kenneth with her pretty face and make him so smitten that he was bent on getting his hands on her. Now, she’s even managed to attract the scion of the Benson family from San Francisco, who also wants to get his hands on her.
In terms of beauty, I’m not much worse than this bitch. But after trying to get close to Kenneth for so long, he still hasn’t shown any interest in me.
When Tyron was drunk and dazed just now, he had even tried to molest Nikki, but she had merely thought of him as an ordinary drunkard and dodged after shrieking. She was utterly disgusted with him at the time.
But now, it turned out the drunkard was actually the only son of the esteemed Matthew Benson from San Francisco and had a much higher status than Kenneth. If she could cozy up to him, she would surely get to live in the lap of luxury for the rest of her life.
Unfortunately, Tyron sobered up after getting beaten up just now and had completely forgotten about trying to molest Nikki. Even when she deliberately made her presence known in front of him, she couldn’t attract him at all.
Yet Tyron, who wasn’t interested in Nikki in the slightest, took a fancy to Cheyenne the moment he laid his eyes on her, greatly infuriating Nikki!
After Nikki made that snide and sarcastic remark out of jealousy, which sounded like gaining Tyron’s favor was the luckiest thing that could happen to Cheyenne, Cheyenne widened her eyes in disbelief and glared at Nikki.
“Nikki, I am your cousin. How could you say such things!?! Do you have a conscience at all?!” Cheyenne was extremely furious and disappointed.
She had still been thinking that Nikki might plead for mercy on her behalf and ask Tyron and Kenneth to let her leave out of consideration of their familial ties.
But Nikki actually refused to help her and even made a conscious effort to send her to the lion’s den while still mocking her jealously.
“Hah, didn’t you just say that I’m not fit to call you my cousin?” Nikki smirked smugly and smiled maliciously. “Mr. Tyron is the scion of the Bensons from San Francisco, and he can have any woman he wants. You should be thanking him for taking a liking to a woman like you! Don’t push your luck and continue being so ignorant. Or else, if you anger Tyron, your good-for-nothing husband will have to face the fate of being beaten to death right here!”
Then she even deliberately picked up the crowbar that Tyron had thrown on the ground and placed it beside him, for fear that he would forget to hit Lucas with it.
Kenneth chimed in from the side, “Nikki is right. Cheyenne, you have to serve Tyron well later! As long as you can please him, all it’ll take is a few words from him, and you can expand your company’s business to LA! This is a rare opportunity you must seize!”
He no longer had any fantasies about Cheyenne now because Tyron’s presence had determined that she would never belong to him. So he might as well be generous and offer her to Tyron, which would at least allow him to get into Tyron’s good books.
He thought he would have plenty of opportunities to bed Cheyenne if he wanted to in the future!
Tyron crossed one leg over the other while sitting on the chair, ogling Cheyenne lecherously and eagerly waiting for her to throw herself into his arms obediently.
Although he just learned that this stunning beauty was actually married to the man beside her, he thought that it wasn’t a big deal because he just wanted to toy with her, not marry her. So it didn’t matter to him whether she was married or not.
Unfortunately, Cheyenne was different from most women he usually interacted with. How could she possibly sell her body for benefits?
She gripped Lucas’s hand tightly. Her palms were so sweaty that her sweat had already stained Lucas’s palm.
“Lucas Gray, why are you still standing here? Hurry up and get lost. You don’t want to witness Tyron having fun with your wife right in front of you, do you?” Nikki suddenly rebuked.
Hearing this humiliating remark, Cheyenne immediately began trembling out of anger.
Just as she was about to chide Nikki for being shameless, Lucas stopped Cheyenne and said softly, “Honey, you don’t need to say anything else to someone like her. You don’t have to be afraid either. I won’t let anything happen to you, and I will be fine. Just remember. No one in this country can hurt me, let alone force me to do anything against my wishes.
“Hmph, he’s just the scion of a family in San Francisco. It’s no big deal. Even if the members of the eight major families from DC dare to try and provoke me, I’ll annihilate them immediately!”
Lucas’s words were domineering and condescending, and he gave off a sharp and cold aura that was so intimidating that no one dared to look him in the eye.
He sounded extremely arrogant too.
Not only did he not take the Bensons, a prestigious family in San Francisco, seriously, but he even disregarded the eight top families of DC and claimed that he could immediately wipe them out effortlessly.
In the eyes of Tyron and Kenneth, Lucas was just being ignorant and imperious! Does he know how powerful the eight top families of DC are?
Cheyenne looked at Lucas seriously. “Yes, I believe you, Hubby!”
“Hahahahaha! This is really hilarious!” Tyron suddenly broke into hysterical laughter, and he was guffawing so hard that he was bent over. Pointing at Lucas and Cheyenne, he asked Kenneth while laughing, “These two… Haha, are they fools? He actually said that he can destroy even the eight top families of DC. What a joke!”
Kenneth sneered in derision. “Mr. Tyron, this kid is an absolute fool! He doesn’t even know the Parkers’ status in LA, let alone the most prestigious families of California and the eight top families in DC! This guy is a complete good-for-nothing who likes issuing empty threats all the time. He doesn’t even know how terrifyingly powerful those families are! Just treat his words as a joke!”
Nikki quickly added fuel to the fire. “Yeah, Mr. Tyron, this punk is indeed a good-for-nothing. You probably don’t know how famous he is in Orange County. He’s notorious for freeloading off Cheyenne. And after becoming her live-in husband by sleeping with her, he sponged off her for six years. He’s just a piece of garbage we can’t get rid of no matter how hard we try! He’s shameless and detestable!”
Hearing these harsh words, Cheyenne couldn’t tolerate it any longer and retorted loudly, “Nikki Heron, shut up! My husband is nothing like what you said. Stop slandering him!”
Lucas must have heard plenty of such callous words over the past few years, but now, Cheyenne couldn’t stand hearing anyone slander and insult him in front of her.
In particular, a vile and abominable person like Nikki was even less qualified to speak about Lucas like this!
“Honey, don’t get upset because of these idiots. Let’s go!” Lucas squeezed the back of Cheyenne’s hand and walked out with her hand in his.
“Hold it! I’ll see who dares to leave without my permission!” Tyron flew into a rage when he saw them trying to leave with no regard for his presence. “Bodyguards, grab this man and break all his limbs. Let’s see how he continues acting all arrogant in front of me!”
