Chapters 10...
Cheyenne's father, William Carter, grimaced in pain as Karen's sharp fingernails pierced her flesh. However, he could not whine in pain as he felt like he was dreaming!
He had peeled his eyes on the red gift list without blinking, as if that large and powerful list of gifts would disappear if he blinked.
Louis instructed the two bodyguards to bring a large box wrapped in red silk from inside the car and place it in the middle of the courtyard. The audience could not take their eyes off the box at all.
After completing his task, Louis did not stay any longer. But he subtly winked at Lucas, who stood at the end of the crowd before he left.
As soon as he left, the people present immediately opened the wrapper and opened the lid to reveal a huge wad of stunningly large banknotes, as well as car keys, ownership deed, and more than ten stock certificates.
“Oh kindness . The item in this box might be worth more than a few million dollars, right? ”
“Are you stupid? There was already a million in cash, and the Luxurious Lakeside Villa at Moon Palace Real Estate was worth several million. Look at the sports car at the door. It costs at least a few million! ”
“There are so many stocks of a goldsmith shop and nine stores in Golden Wing. Yes God! I can't count it! This box is worth at least ten million! ”
A gasping sound of astonishment and a gulp of saliva could be heard.
“They're all mine! Don'tdon't move! ” Seeing someone couldn't help but pick something up, Karen pounced into the box and stared at them carefully.
At this moment, some relatives finally reacted and realized that the items inside the box were not theirs!
They instantly looked at the old Cheyenne with fiery gazes in their eyes that were reddened, green with envy.
“Uncle William, your daughter is very lucky!”
“I just heard that it was an engagement gift. Do Sawyers like Charlotte? “
“It was the Sawyer family, the richest family in Orange County. They are so generous! Charlotte has fallen into the gold mine this time! “
“Why didn't I give birth to such an intelligent daughter? Charlotte, when you marry into the Sawyer family in the future, don't forget to help your uncle! “
Charlotte was so agitated that her face became a dead red.
What woman doesn't fantasize about marrying into a rich family? Although he was not sure when the descendants of the Sawmill liked him, the fact that they had generously sent such a huge gift to his family's doorstep meant that he loved him dearly!
Seeing her brother's embarrassed expression, Cheyenne felt envious but happy for him. At the same time, he also felt a bit bitter and melancholic, breaking Lucas' heart.
He walked towards Cheyenne and said softly, “Actually, this is all for you. ”
“What?” Cheyenne did not hear what she said clearly because her attention was disturbed.
Standing to the side, Charlotte seemed to have heard of it. He became angry and shouted, “What did you say ?!”
Charlotte took a sports car key and a large stack of ownership deed and almost threw it in Lucas' face. “Look, the descendants of Sawyers only like me, yet they have already given me a big and powerful engagement gift. What about you My sister has been married to you for years, but have you ever given her anything? Not to mention the engagement gifts, wedding banquet fees and invitation cards were all borne by my family back then! If you still feel ashamed, quickly divorce my sister! “
Lucas was a little angry. He had originally prepared the things Charlotte held for Cheyenne. Not only did he pick it up, he even mocked it and applied salt to Cheyenne's wounds.
He wanted to make a sarcastic statement, but Cheyenne hurriedly stopped him.
“Enough . Today is Amelia's birthday and a joyous moment for Charlotte. Let's continue eating. ”
The collapsed chairs and broken plates in the living room have been cleaned for a long time. William instructed the servants to serve some bottles of wine, as he planned to celebrate this joyous occasion with his relatives.
Seth did not stay. He had already fooled himself by awarding a fake gemstone and being exposed for it. He was also embarrassed by the huge gifts given by Louis Alcott and the Sawmill. Therefore, he was in a bad mood and drove in his luxury sports car.
People flattered each other, eating, and drinking until the afternoon.
After everyone left, Cheyenne's parents called Lucas and Cheyenne into the sitting room.
Lucas understood that the real show was about to start.
Cheyenne's father smoked his cigarette and said with a stern expression, “I won't beat around with you. When you were married back then, you were forced and had no choice but to comply because of the incident. And there's no feeling between the two of you. You've also been missing for years now, and Cheyenne has been staying home to look after Amelia, whom we foster. For both, you are considered negligible. Your presence is not important to them, but if you exist, we must provide it for you as well. ”
The words were harsh, but Lucas could not refute them.
He has fought hard in the state of Calico for many years, and although he achieved great feats, he has failed as a father and husband to Amelia and Cheyenne.
“I have no reason for what happened before. But I promise that I will treat them well in the future and fulfill my duties as a father and husband. I will not let them suffer anymore! ”
“Hmph! Believe that you dare to talk about the future! ” Karen rolled her eyes in disgust. “What can you achieve with what you have now? How will you support my daughter and granddaughter? In the future? Will you continue to waste our family?
...“Frankly, people like you are just a burden to our family. You're just a bloodsucking leech! We won't spare you, so hurry up and divorce Cheyenne and go! “...
