Chapter 408: A Congratulatory Gift

When Cheyenne heard Nikkis request, the first thing that she thought was, What trick is Nikki up to now

But when she saw how flushed Nikkis cheeks were and the way she was stumbling with an unsteady gait, she realized that Nikki had indeed drunk a lot.

At the dining table just now, Nikki was like an active social butterfly who continuously livened up the atmosphere and toasted everyone.

So she must have accidentally had a drop too much.

“Sure.” Cheyenne stood up and explained to Lucas again, “Shes drunk.

Ill accompany her to the restroom.

Be right back.”

Then she helped Nikki out of the private room.

After Cheyenne and Nikki left, the atmosphere in the private room quickly became rather cold and tense.

Kenneth and his friends were all glowering at Lucas hostilely, seemingly with the intention of carrying out a treacherous plot.

“Lucas Gray, lets not beat around the bush anymore.

Ill get straight to the point.

A good-for-nothing like you isnt worthy of a beautiful and capable woman like Cheyenne! You must be shamelessly clinging onto her like a leech for the sake of money, arent you!”

Kenneth leaned back against the backrest of the chair and drawled, “Ive seen many punks like you who freeload off women! How about this Ill give you a hundred and fifty thousand dollars to divorce Cheyenne immediately.

From now on, dont appear in front of her again!”

The corners of Lucass mouth curled into a smile of contempt.

“Just a hundred and fifty thousand Are you trying to brush me off like Im a beggar, or is that all that you can afford”

“Shut up! You should be thankful that Kenneth is willing to give you that much! How dare you think its too little Youre really ignorant!” one of the scions beside Kenneth immediately rebuked.

“Exactly! I doubt a good-for-nothing like you will ever earn that much money in your life.

What are you waiting for Hurry up and get on your knees to Kenneth to thank him for being willing to give you so much money!”

“What a good bargain for this punk!”

The rest chimed in one after another.

Kenneth smiled slightly.

“If you think its too little, I can increase it to five hundred thousand, but thats as high as Im willing to go! Well, because youre only worth that much at most!”

Then he pulled out a check from his pocket, wrote down a string of numbers, and then threw it onto a spot on the table in front of Lucas.

Lucas took a casual glance at the check and suddenly burst into laughter.

“Whats so funny” Kenneth frowned in displeasure.

Lucas laughed.

“Its nothing much.

I just suddenly thought of the same plot in some third-rate novels.

Ive always thought that only retards would do such cliché things, but I never expected the scion of the Parker family to be so well versed in it.

Dont you think its hilarious”

“Bastard! How dare you mock me” Kenneth wasnt a fool and could naturally hear the strong contempt and derision in Lucass words and tone.

He slammed his fist against the table.

Smack!

The glasses, plates, and lamps on the table bounced up with several thuds.

Seeing that Kenneth had lost his temper, the others immediately stood up and surrounded Lucas, towering over him.

There were more than ten of them.

Full of aggression, they did seem somewhat threatening.

“Hah, you did such a ridiculously stupid thing, and youre afraid of getting mocked” Lucas was still as fearless as before, and he remained sitting calmly without a single trace of consternation on his face.

Seeing how unafraid Lucas was, Kenneth was somewhat indecisive and unsure of what to do.

Given how powerful Lucas was, as evidenced by how he crushed the cup, if they really got into a fight with Lucas, they might not be able to defeat him even if they all fought him together.

But it would be too degrading for him to concede defeat in front of Lucas!

If word got out, Kenneth would be thoroughly embarrassed!

“Hah, I suggest you sit down obediently and quit putting up an intimidating front in front of me.

Otherwise, you wont want to know what the consequences will be.” Lucas simply disregarded the scions and slowly poured himself another cup of tea as he spoke relaxedly.

Although his tone wasnt harsh, Kenneth suddenly and inexplicably got the chills.

It seemed that Lucas was a terrifying person not to be trifled with!

The entire private room fell into a bizarre silence again.

At this moment, the door of the room opened, and Cheyenne entered together with Nikki.

She immediately sensed the strange tension in the room.

It was especially so because more than ten of them, including Kenneth, were standing around Lucas, seemingly trying to force him to do something.

“What are you guys doing” Cheyenne hollered and immediately walked toward Lucas while staring at them warily.

Lucas patted Cheyennes arm and told her to relax.

He even picked up the check in front of him and handed it to Cheyenne.

“Honey, look.

This is a five hundred thousand dollar check from Mr.

Parker! He said that he admires how devoted we are to each other, so he specially gave us this check as a congratulatory gift,” Lucas said smilingly.

As soon as he said this, Kenneths and his friends jaws dropped in astonishment.

On the other hand, Nikki gaped in disbelief, as if she had seen a ghost.

Why would Kenneth admire their loving relationship and even give them a five hundred thousand dollar check as a congratulatory gift

Thats impossible!

Cheyenne understood that Lucas must have deliberately said this and that Kenneth must have given Lucas this check with ill intentions!

But since Lucas already said so, she naturally wouldnt embarrass him by exposing him.

Instead, when she saw the various looks of shock and dismay on their faces, Cheyenne took the check decisively and then said with a grin, “In that case, thank you, Mr.

Parker!”

“Damn it…” At this moment, Kenneth was so enraged that he almost spewed a mouthful of blood.

He never thought that Lucas would actually come up with such an absurd reason.

Not only did he not mention the matter of divorcing Cheyenne, but he even pocketed the $500,000 check!

After a long and awkward silence, someone standing beside Kenneth couldnt help roaring, “You bastard! This check is clearly meant for you to…”

“Shut up!” Before this person could finish speaking, Kenneth suddenly bellowed at him to stop him.

Kenneth then glowered at him furiously for being stupid.

Cheyenne was standing right here, and he couldnt possibly say that the money was meant for getting Lucas to divorce her.

Given her character, she would never accept him willingly after finding out the truth!

But Kenneths anger wouldnt calm down so easily.

Staring at Lucas coldly, he threatened sinisterly, “Punk, I have to warn you that theres no free lunch in this world, and you pay for what you take! Do you understand”
