Cheyenne shrieked in shock and violently pushed the person in front of her away.

But she suddenly heard a familiar voice. “Cheyenne, it’s me.”

She immediately looked up with tears in her eyes and saw that the man was none other than Lucas.

Cheyenne sobbed and hugged Lucas tightly as tears continuously rolled down her cheeks, soon drenching Lucas’s clothes.

Lucas was at a loss for words, especially when he felt Cheyenne’s warm tears seeping into his clothes. “Cheyenne, what’s the matter? Your father should already be home, shouldn’t he?”

“You… It’s great that you’re back! Dad just said that you got beaten to death, and it scared me so badly…” Cheyenne buried her head in Lucas’s chest while sobbing. She only felt relieved and at ease when she could feel his heartbeat.

Lucas was stunned for a moment before figuring out that Cheyenne had rushed out so anxiously because she was worried about his safety.

A warm current surged in his heart. He gently put his hand on her shoulder and said in a tender voice, “Don’t worry. I was in the army for years. Such a situation won’t be much trouble for me.”

At this moment, Cheyenne remembered the things Lucas had told her before. Lucas was indeed very powerful now, and ordinary hooligans wouldn’t be able to lay a finger on him. She was just extremely concerned about him, and in her moment of panic, Lucas was all she was worried about.

Realizing that she was still hugging Lucas tightly, Cheyenne immediately let go as though she had just received an electric shock and took two steps back. Her face was flushed, and she felt extremely shy and embarrassed.

A tender smile appeared on Lucas’s face, and a sweet feeling emerged in his heart when he saw how concerned she was.

But the next moment, he frowned because he saw that she was walking on the cement road without any shoes, baring her snow-white feet.

“Why aren’t you wearing shoes?” Lucas asked in a deep voice.

“Ah!” Cheyenne lowered her head and realized that she had dashed out of the house barefoot and was now stepping on the cold and rough concrete pavement.

Her glistening toes curled up. Cheyenne felt shy and embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.

Lucas understood how she felt and was extremely touched.

He extended his arms and picked Cheyenne up in his arms.

Cheyenne was caught off guard and shrieked. “What are you doing?! Hurry up and put me down. What if someone sees us?!”

Her face flushed, she pushed at Lucas’s arms. She looked ashamed and full of complaints, and she didn’t notice how nervous she had become as her heartbeat increased rapidly. However, she wasn’t angry at all.

Lucas smiled gently and said softly, “It’s okay. You’re not wearing shoes, so it’s hard for you to walk. We’ll reach home soon.”

“Cheyenne!” Charlotte exclaimed from behind with an anxious look. She was holding a jacket and a pair of shoes and had clearly chased after Cheyenne.

Upon seeing Lucas, Charlotte exclaimed in surprise, “Lucas! You’re back too! Great!”

Only then did Charlotte realize that Lucas was carrying Cheyenne in his arms bridal style. She couldn’t help but gape in shock.

Cheyenne was already feeling extremely uncomfortable with Lucas carrying her in his arms in the first place. But now that her sister had run into them, she felt even more awkward. She struggled and insisted that Lucas put her down. “Charlotte, good that you’re here. Quickly pass my shoes to me.”

“O-oh!” Charlotte hurriedly handed over the shoes, but Lucas snatched them away.

Lucas didn’t embarrass Cheyenne and put her down before squatting down and laying the pair of shoes on the ground.

Cheyenne hurriedly put on her shoes but was stopped by Lucas calling out softly, “Don’t move.”

He then held her ankle and wiped away the dirt on her sole with his sleeve. Only then did he help her put on the shoes.

Lucas was serious and gentle, as if he was handling a precious treasure, causing Cheyenne’s heart to skip a beat. She parted her lips but was at a loss for words.

Standing at the side, Charlotte looked at Lucas squatting on the ground and gently wiping away the dirt full of envy.

As soon as the three of them headed back inside, they found Karen and William in a heated argument, naturally because of William’s debts.

“William Carter! I really can’t live with you anymore. You’re usually a good-for-nothing who does nothing but eat and sleep. And you need me to serve you all the time too. But now, you’ve actually picked up gambling behind my back! You even ended up losing hundreds of thousands of dollars. You’re bent on making us go bankrupt, aren’t you?!

“You damned loser, you deserve to be struck by lightning! What did I do to end marrying a loser like you? Oh my God, why don’t you just drop dead outside?!”

Karen was infuriated with William getting into debt of hundreds of thousands of dollars behind her back. She would have to shoulder it too because they were married! She was indignant about being implicated by him!

“Let’s get a divorce! I can’t spend another minute with you! Let’s get divorced immediately!” Karen screamed.

William was extremely annoyed by her scolding and hollered in exasperation, “You bitch, all you do is scold me! I’m fine now, aren’t I? Your incessant scolding and cursing is the reason for my bad luck! You want a divorce? Go ahead. Who’s afraid? If I divorce you, I might become lucky! You’ll regret it then!”

The two of them were arguing nonstop when Charlotte, Cheyenne, and Lucas came in.

Seeing that Lucas was safe and sound, not missing any limbs and without a single bruise, William was astonished. But he soon turned around in anger, not wanting to deal with this son-in-law who refused to listen to him. magic

Karen was stunned too. She muttered, “Didn’t you say that good-for-nothing was already killed? Why is he back again? I really can’t get rid of him!”

Seeing her parents’ reaction, Cheyenne was furious. Charlotte was displeased too, as she felt unjust for Lucas.

At this moment, a BMW suddenly stopped at the entrance of their home, and three people alighted. Seeing that the door was open, the three of them walked in.

Karen was extremely irritated. When she saw the strangers coming in, she barked furiously, “Who are you people? Can’t you see that this is someone’s house? Hurry up and get lost!”

After William saw the people who entered, his heart was about to fall out of his chest. He paled, and his legs turned into jelly.

When he heard Karen’s scolding again, he was so frightened that he almost peed in his pants. He raised his hand and slapped her. “Shut up! You must have a death wish!”
