1241 Can’t Stand It
“Lucas, it’s all my fault for what happened today! If I hadn’t refused to trust you and insisted on making Cheyenne throw a tantrum at you, she wouldn’t have met that bastard and almost suffered horrors. Stanley wouldn’t have gotten injured protecting us either!”
Charlotte said with a look of self-reproach, “Lucas, it’s all my fault. Just scold me if it’ll make you feel better.”
Cheyenne quickly said, “No, it’s my fault! If I hadn’t ignored you, given you the cold shoulder, and even abandoned you to go out with Charlotte, we wouldn’t have gotten into trouble. At the end of the day, it’s all because I didn’t trust you enough…”
Seeing Cheyenne planning to take all responsibility, Charlotte hurriedly said, “No! Lucas, Cheyenne has always trusted you, and she even told me that those photos are fake. She believes that there’s nothing between you and Lena. It was my petty temper. I insisted that Cheyenne teaches you a lesson. That’s why today’s matter happened…”
The two of them competed to take responsibility.
Lucas looked at the two sisters and sighed, but he had a gentle smile.
“Okay, you two don’t have to fight to take responsibility. It’s not your fault for what happened today. If you must blame someone, blame Angus Hamilton for being bold and reckless.”
He added, “You don’t have to blame yourselves. I’m thankful enough that you’re fine. And regarding Stanley… he’s alright. Although he suffered severe injuries, he was fine when I went to the hospital. He’ll be alright after recuperating in the hospital for a while.”
Stanley was indeed heavily wounded at the time. Fortunately, he trained all year round, and he was in good physical condition. Besides, most of his injuries were superficial wounds and abrasions. There were some fractures and excessive blood loss, but his vitals weren’t affected. He just had to recuperate well in the hospital for some time to return to the way he was before.
There was nothing serious with Stanley’s condition, making Lucas feel relieved.
After hearing what Lucas said, Cheyenne and Charlotte finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a huge boulder had been lifted off their hearts.
If Stanley really died because of protecting them, they would never be at ease.
“Thankfully, Stanley is alright. Otherwise, I would feel even more guilty,” Cheyenne said guiltily.
Seeing Cheyenne still blaming herself for this incident, Lucas pulled her into his arms and comforted, “It’s really not your fault. Stop blaming yourself. I’ll take you to the hospital in the afternoon to let you see Stanley in person!”
“Okay.” Cheyenne wrapped her arms around Lucas’s waist and buried her head in his chest.
Seeing the two of them hugging, Charlotte couldn’t stand it anymore. “Hey, I really can’t stand this! Don’t abuse us singles here! I can’t take it anymore!”
Charlotte covered her eyes and wailed before running into her room upstairs.
Cheyenne blushed shyly, quickly pushed Lucas away, and looked at him with some chagrin.
It was his fault for suddenly hugging her and causing Charlotte to tease her. It was too embarrassing.
After Cheyenne gave him a shy glare of annoyance, Lucas felt his heart surge.
He had been apart from Cheyenne for more than ten days, and he missed his lovely wife dearly. Now that she gave him this glare, the fire in his heart suddenly ignited.
“Honey, let’s talk in the bedroom.” Lucas picked Cheyenne up in his arms and walked toward their bedroom.
Cheyenne let out an exclamation and hugged Lucas’s neck tightly. She understood what he meant and blushed even more shyly.
“No, don’t be like this… It’s broad daylight, and Charlotte is at home too. We shouldn’t do this—Mmph!”
Before Cheyenne could finish speaking, Lucas blocked her lips with a kiss.
Their fiery breaths intertwined between their lips and teeth.
Charlotte had planned to head downstairs to get some milk from the refrigerator, but she happened to see Lucas carrying Cheyenne and kissing her while going to their bedroom. After being stunned for a moment, she quickly realized what they were going to do and immediately blushed.
“Ahhh! My eyes!”
Charlotte immediately forgot her plan to go downstairs to get some milk. She headed straight back to her room, slammed the door shut with a bang, and covered her burning face.
But for some reason, the scene of them hugging and kissing each other kept running through her head. She even thought of some other scenes that made her entire face blush as red as a tomato.
“Ahhh! What was I thinking?!”
Charlotte patted her cheeks, threw herself onto her bed, and hid under her duvet.
…
Meanwhile, the Coles and Hales had completely cleaned up all traces that Angus and the elderly man in white had left behind in Lotte Entertainment City and Orange County, as well as disposed of their corpses.
Even if someone came to investigate, they wouldn’t be able to find a single clue.
But Angus, a direct descendant of a royal family branch, naturally couldn’t vanish without any rhyme or reason.
…
The following morning, Angus’s father called Brett and asked in displeasure, “Did Angus look for you? He’s already in his twenties, but he’s still so childish and unreliable. I told him to call me as soon as he arrived in Orange County last night. But he hasn’t even texted me yet. I can’t reach him on the phone either!”
“Brett, you’re the elder brother, so you have to keep an eye on him. Don’t let him get too carried away with fooling around that he forgets about me!”

Hearing this, Brett was stunned for a moment. “Dad, what did you say? Angus is here in Orange County too? Why didn’t you tell me?”
On the other end, Brett’s father was just as puzzled. “What? Didn’t he go look for you? He kept telling me that he was going to Orange County to look for you! Is he messing around somewhere again?”
The two were surprised.
Angus was five years younger than Brett, and he had been extremely clingy to him since he was a child. Even though he came to Orange County to have fun, he should have met Brett or called him at least.
What did it mean that he didn’t contact them and that they couldn’t reach him either?
Brett’s heart skipped a beat as an ominous premonition surged in his heart, causing him to be frightened. Did something happen to Angus?
