After a while, the person on the other end of the line said indifferently, “In that case, I will personally go and see what kind of person that Lucas Gray is!”

The call immediately ended.

Scott could hear the displeasure in the other partys threatening tone, making him grin widely gleefully.

“Lucas Gray, lets see if you can still be arrogant! When that big shot comes looking for you, lets see if you can continue being smug! Ill make sure to pay you back tenfold for this slap you gave me!” Scott said sinisterly while touching his stinging cheek.

At this moment, in a luxurious villa in the center of San Francisco, a young man in his thirties was blowing out smoke rings from his mouth while pressing the cigar in his hand directly onto the arm of a beautiful woman beside him.

Sizzle

When the burning hot cigar pressed against her skin, it emitted a nauseating stench of skin charring.

But the beautiful woman merely bit her lip hard and shuddered continuously, not daring to make a single sound.

“Lucas Gray, huh Hah, I, Kyle Kingston, have always gotten what I want!”

Meanwhile, Lucas had just brought Cheyenne and Charlotte into the villa when he saw Karen straightening her back and standing upright behind the door.

A look of derision appeared in Charlottes eyes when she saw Karens behavior.

She had long known that with all the commotion outside, there was no way Karen hadnt heard it when she was in the villa.

But she hadnt dared to show her face.

Since the previous incident at the restaurant where Charlotte stood up for Karen but was instead pushed out by her to be slapped to atone for her mistake and then abandoned by her, Charlotte had been utterly disappointed with Karen.

When her mother saw the few tall men standing outside, whom she knew worked for the Taylors, one of the four major families of Orange County, she simply cowered and hid behind the door while watching her daughters get bullied!

If Lucas hadnt sent Wade to their rescue and arrived in time himself, she and Cheyenne would have been in an unimaginable plight now!

But Karen didnt even bother to look at Charlotte or show her any concern.

She just dashed forward and questioned Lucas sternly, “Lucas Gray, tell me honestly.

How much money have you got in your secret stash”

Karen looked extremely hostile and interrogated Lucas as if he was secretly hiding her assets behind her back.

Cheyennes face immediately turned sullen, and she snapped, “Mom, what are you saying”

Charlotte said mockingly, “Cheyenne, cant you tell Mom is coveting Lucass money.

And to her, it would be best if she could pocket all of it!”

Karen glowered at Charlotte scornfully before saying to Cheyenne, “What did I say I merely asked Lucas how much money he still has in his hand so that he doesnt hide it and deceive you! Well, when he married you six years ago, he was so poor that he didnt have any money at all! But now that hes rich, his money is considered a matrimonial asset.

Even if you get divorced, youll at least be entitled to half of his assets when the time comes!

“Im just sparing a thought for you.

Dont be so clueless about who cares for you and who doesnt! Hurry up and ask him to take out all his title deeds, bank cards, and credit cards.

We have to calculate how much money he has in his hands so that when you get divorced in the future, he cant deny it.

That way, you wont be at a disadvantage.”

Karen looked extremely self-righteous as she extended her hand toward Lucas to make him take out all his bank cards and credit cards.

Cheyenne was almost dumbfounded by her mothers actions.

“Mom! You… How can you say something like that Lucas earned all his money by himself.

What does it have to do with us Besides, what right do you have to covet a portion of his assets This is… too shameless of you!”

She was about to cry in exasperation because of how thick-skinned Karen and found it extremely embarrassing as well.

How could she covet Lucass money right in front of him

Moreover, he was obviously kind enough to let her family move into the villa, yet Karen not only didnt reciprocate his kind intentions but even disgraced all of them in front of him.

But Lucas smiled at Cheyenne comfortingly to tell her that she didnt need to take it to heart.

In fact, he had long gotten used to Karens odd behavior and wasnt surprised when she made these absurd remarks.

He definitely wouldnt take her words to heart.

Karen used to berate and criticize Lucas every day in the past.

If he really held it against her, he would have been angered countless times.

Charlotte sneered and mocked, “Enough with that excuse of being worried that Cheyenne will suffer a loss.

You just want to take Cheyennes and Lucass money! You keep saying youre waiting for their divorce, but you clearly just dont want to make life easy for Cheyenne! Mom, youd better behave yourself.

Weve just moved into Lucass place today, yet youre already acting up.

Be careful not to offend Lucas and end up getting kicked out! When you do, I wont put in a good word for you at all!”

Karen barked furiously, “Shut up! Im your mother and have raised you since you were born, but both of you are getting angry at me for an outsider.

Do you have any regard for me as your mother Youre really such ingrates!”

Cheyenne was so furious that her nose turned a little sore and her pretty eyes welled up with tears, but she clenched her teeth to keep herself from crying.

Charlotte rolled her eyes and scoffed, “Psht! You say that all the time.

What kind of mother are you”

Karen immediately flew into a rage.

“Fine! All of you are so capable that you dont respect me anymore, right Lucas Gray, listen up.

If you dont give me a clear declaration of your bank accounts and other assets, just you wait and see how Ill deal with you!”

She turned around furiously and returned to the room she just chose.

Cheyenne felt greatly ashamed of her mothers behavior and was really sorry to Lucas.

She couldnt hold it any longer and teared up uncontrollably.

She turned to the side and used the back of her hand to wipe away her tears.

Charlotte hugged Cheyennes shoulder and comforted, “Cheyenne, stop crying.

Shes always been like that.

Shes never cared about us.

All she cares about is money.

Its not worth getting upset because of her.”

Despite saying so, Charlotte couldnt help but have her eyes turn red when she thought about what happened last time.

Karens behavior had really broken her heart, but such a person was their mother!

Looking at the pair of sisters hugging each other, Lucas sighed in his heart.

Although Karen had a horrible personality, it was a miracle that she could raise such reasonable and sensible daughters like Cheyenne and Charlotte.

After a while, Cheyenne got a grip on her emotions and suddenly said to Lucas, “Lucas, on behalf of my mother, I apologize to you for what she said just now.

I think wed better let her move out.

Ill find her somewhere to move to.”
