Cheyenne was naturally very clear about that matter.

At that time, Charlotte fell in love with a senior in school. And being a young girl, she was extremely infatuated with him and would bring him food and beverages every day. She had given all her gentleness and affection to him.

However, he didn’t cherish Charlotte’s sincerity and left her hanging. He even wanted her to sleep with him.

Charlotte was nervous and terrified. But in the end, she decided to tell Cheyenne about it and ask for her opinion. Cheyenne told her to turn him down, the main reason being that Cheyenne felt he wasn’t trustworthy at all.

As expected, after Charlotte turned him down, that senior soon hooked up with another girl, making Charlotte so heartbroken that she wept for two whole weeks.

While Cheyenne was feeling upset for her sister, she also felt thankful that Charlotte didn’t get violated by such scum.

After hearing Lucas suddenly mention this matter, Cheyenne nodded. But at the same time, she was rather bewildered too. “How did you find out about that matter? What does this have to do with Aston Brooke?”

Lucas drove steadily while saying, “When Charlotte treated me to a meal previously, we happened to run into that man and his wife, who even threw her weight around in front of Charlotte. I also happened to find out then that that man’s wife, Estelle Brooke, is this Aston Brooke’s sister.”

Cheyenne still didn’t know about this matter yet, so she hurriedly asked about it.

After hearing Lucas’s brief explanation about what had happened that day, Cheyenne suddenly yelled furiously, “That’s too much! Even if Charlotte was blind and liked him, how long has it been since then? Why did they have to humiliate Charlotte? Their characters are incorrigible! We definitely won’t cooperate with the Brookes!”

At this moment, Amelia, who was leaning on Cheyenne’s body, raised her head and said with a look of determination on her tender face, “Anyone who bullies Aunt Charlotte and Mommy are bad guys!”

Cheyenne was immediately caught between laughter and tears as she rubbed Amelia’s nose affectionately. “We’re adults, and you’re a child. What do you know?”

Amelia puffed up her cheeks. “I know things! I also know that Grandma bullied us this morning and didn’t cook us any food for breakfast either.”

Cheyenne coddled Amelia. “Grandma was just in a bad mood today. Don’t hold it against her, Amelia. Let’s have a huge feast for dinner tonight!”

The tantrum her mother threw in the morning had upset Cheyenne, so she didn’t want to go home tonight and face Karen’s hostile attitude.

Thus, the three of them decided to have dinner at a famous restaurant before heading home.

As soon as they entered the house, Karen welcomed them with a smile, which seemed abnormal. “You guys are finally home! It’s been a busy day. You’re all exhausted, right? Come. I’ve prepared a huge spread of your favorite dishes! Hurry up and wash your hands before coming to eat!”

Cheyenne said indifferently, “No thanks, we’ve already had dinner outside.” While speaking, she brought Amelia upstairs.

“Huh? Why did you eat outside? The food served in restaurants isn’t as hygienic and delicious as the food I make,” Karen hurriedly exclaimed.

Unfortunately, Cheyenne didn’t pay any attention to her and went straight into her room to help Amelia take a shower and change into a fresh set of clothes.

Soon, Charlotte returned.

Karen hurriedly called out to her. “Charlotte, you’re back from work? Come have dinner. I’ve already whipped up a huge spread of dishes. We’re waiting for you!”

Charlotte glanced at Karen coldly. “How can an unfilial daughter like me be fit to eat the food you cook? Go ahead yourself.”

After saying this, she also went straight to her room.

Seeing that her two daughters had ignored her, Karen was overwhelmed with fury and so angry that she gnashed her teeth.

Normally, Cheyenne and Charlotte would never dare to treat her with such a hostile attitude. And if they did, she would just tell them to take it or leave it!

But what she was most worried about now was that they would stop eating the food she cooked and stop giving her money. Despite being infuriated, she had no choice but to bear with it.

Karen stood alone in front of the table covered with dishes, hanging her head low, looking extremely lonely.

Lucas sighed in his heart. He walked over and said with a smile, “Karen, your culinary skills are just so wonderful that I could smell the aroma from outside. Have you eaten yet? Let me accompany you to eat dinner.”

Lucas was just about to get some utensils.

But to his surprise, Karen immediately raised her head and hollered with a look of menace and annoyance, “All you do is eat! Are you the embodiment of Gluttony? I didn’t cook this food for you! I’d rather feed it to dogs than let you have any, you good-for-nothing! Get lost!”

After saying this, Karen dumped all the food into the rubbish bin right in front of Lucas.

Lucas was speechless.

Before returning home, Lucas had already had dinner with Cheyenne and Amelia at a restaurant. He offered to eat with Karen only because he took pity on her for the consequences she had to suffer for her actions. He also decided to give her an out on account that she was his mother-in-law. Besides, he also wanted to ease the strain on their relationship.

However, he never expected her to respond in such a hostile manner, as if he was really asking her for food.

Although Lucas had long known what kind of a person Karen was, she never failed to lower the bottom line in his heart.

Forget it. There’s no need to sympathize with someone like her. Lucas turned around and headed upstairs.

Lights were on, and the night had just begun. The nightlife at entertainment joints was the liveliest.

While driving, Aston said to Scarlet impatiently, “Why did you ask me out? How are you managing the task I gave you? Don’t blame me for not reminding you. If you can’t do what I want you to, get lost before it’s too late.”

Scarlet clenched her teeth with some grievances in her eyes. But when she thought about the life she would enjoy after marrying a wealthy man in the future, she felt that the mistreatment was nothing compared to it.

Scarlet looked at Aston and smiled in a bid to please him. “Aston, don’t worry. I asked you out today precisely because of what you want. You said you would marry me if I could get either Cheyenne or Charlotte Carter to sleep with you. Does it still count?”

Aston narrowed his eyes. “Of course. Why? Did you make progress?”

Scarlet hurriedly nodded. “Yes! As long as you act according to plan, I can guarantee that you’ll get what you want tonight!”
