When Lucas saw Cheyennes face, he knew that she must have misunderstood something.

But if he wanted to explain, he would inevitably have to expose the fact that Amelia had been abducted.

Once he said that, Cheyenne would definitely be worried and scared.

In the future, she might even be unable to sleep well because of how worried she was, so he didnt intend to tell her about it.

While Lucas was feeling troubled, Karen suddenly appeared at the side and yelled at him, “Great! You good-for-nothing, youre lucky that Cheyenne was willing to marry you! How dare you have the guts to get involved with some other woman called Grace out there! Lucas Gray, youre such scum! Since you have an affair, you should divorce Cheyenne and get out of this house!”

Karen had been hoping that her daughter would divorce this loser Lucas and then marry a rich young man.

Now that she heard that Lucas had been fooling around outside, she immediately wished that they would hurry up and get divorced.

Charlotte looked at her mother, feeling utterly speechless.

She knew what happened and was naturally aware of why Lucas had brought Amelia home so late.

She knew that the Aunt Grace whom Amelia mentioned must be the person Logan Hale put in charge of taking care of Amelia.

Although Charlotte didnt know how well Grace treated Amelia, she was certain that Lucas definitely didnt betray Cheyenne and had nothing to do with that woman!

Seeing Karen cursing incessantly and wishing that she could come in between them, Charlotte hurriedly spoke up to stop her.

“Mom, you dont know anything, so dont spout nonsense, okay”

Then Charlotte hurriedly said to Cheyenne, “That Aunt Grace Amelia mentioned is actually a friend of mine.

You had to work overtime today, and Lucas happened to be busy at that time too, so he asked me to go pick up Amelia.

But something urgent cropped up for me, so I asked my friend to look after Amelia for a while.

Thats what happened.

Cheyenne, dont get the wrong idea!”

Without saying a single word, Cheyenne glanced at Charlotte and then at Lucas apprehensively.

Karen laughed in a high-pitched tone.

“Charlotte, dont cover up for this good-for-nothing.

Since when do you have a good friend called Grace Why dont your sister and I know Youre still young.

You dont know how nasty these men are! This good-for-nothing can fool you today and take Amelia to see that shameless woman, so who knows what else he can do next!”

Then Karen raised her hand and poked Amelias head.

“And you, little one, you dont know any better.

You start singing praises about her just because she gave you some sweets and played with you.

Youll know it when she becomes your stepmother one day!”

Her words made Amelia pout unhappily, and Cheyennes face turned sullen as well.

Amelia was as precious as Cheyennes life, but Lucas took her to meet another woman who managed to get into Amelias good books within just a few short hours.

Amelia even sang praises about her.

Clearly, that woman wasnt an ordinary person either.

If… they really…

At the thought of the possibility Karen just mentioned, Cheyenne felt as if her heart had been stabbed by a knife.

Staring at Lucas, she said, “You must give me a detailed explanation for what happened today.

Dont think of finding a random excuse to fool me.”

Lucas didnt expect Cheyenne to really suspect him after Karen fanned the flames.

He couldnt help smiling bitterly.

However, he couldnt reveal the truth now, and he didnt want to give a random excuse either.

Although he was smart, he was clueless about what to say now.

Seeing how speechless he was, Cheyenne humphed coldly, picked Amelia up in her arms, and turned around to leave.

She headed upstairs without even turning back.

Standing at the side, Charlotte panicked and hurriedly urged Lucas, “Oh no, Cheyenne is angry! Hurry up and explain to her!”

Lucas thought about it and was just about to go upstairs to explain things to Cheyenne, but his phone suddenly rang.

It was a message from Jordan.

He stopped in his tracks and shook his head at Charlotte.

“The matter hasnt been settled yet.

Ill go handle it and explain to Cheyenne when Im back.”

With that, Lucas turned around and left.

The matter remaining unsettled was naturally referring to Logan Hale and his family.

Jordan mentioned an important piece of information in his text.

The baby of Connor Hale, Logans older brother, had just been born, and the baby shower happened to be today.

The entire Hale family was in high spirits and had sent out various invitations.

The Hales were one of the four top families in Orange County, and they were on par with the Sawyers.

Thus, the invitations sent by the Hales were extremely valuable, and various families were all scrambling to congratulate them in a bid to get closer to the Hales.

Flynn Davis had mentioned it to Lucas once before.

But at that time, Logan had already tried to drug Charlotte, which made Lucas incredibly displeased with the Hales.

So he naturally didnt consider accepting the invitation to go to the Hales celebration.

But Lucas was now driving to the cluster of villas where the Hales resided.

However, he wasnt going there to congratulate them.

At this moment, the Hale residence was decorated lavishly, and there was a large crowd, as well as numerous luxurious cars at the entrance.

Although the baby shower began in the afternoon, the formal celebration banquet didnt start until evening.

Logan had long disliked his elder brother, Connor Hale, who was very likely to clinch the position of the head of the family.

He was disdainful toward Connors baby shower and had been still loitering in his bar in the afternoon with Scarlet, which resulted in the matters earlier.

The black Jaguar pulled over in the parking lot in front of the Hale residence, and Lucas led Jordan out of the car.

Looking at the lively scene in front of him, he smiled coldly.

“It just so happens that all the people of the Hale family are present today.

How wonderful!”
