Chapter 468: Extremely Pleased

The other people in the ballroom naturally had no time to pay attention to Nikkis mood.

After Edmund saw Lucas, he chuckled and walked toward him smilingly.

“Little friend, Ive finally seen you again! If it wasnt for your help yesterday, I would have already died! You are truly my savior!” Edmund smiled with excitement.

After regaining consciousness yesterday, he had wanted to thank the young man who saved his life.

But he didnt expect the latter to leave without claiming credit after making sure that he was fine.

Fortunately, the Coles had a wide network of connections and managed to find Lucas soon.

He had originally wanted to thank Lucas yesterday afternoon.

But his granddaughter Alexis had still been worried, so she had forced him to go for a full-body checkup in the hospital.

They had ended up spending too much time at the hospital, and it was already quite late by the time he finished.

So he had to wait until today to thank Lucas.

Facing Edmunds grateful expression, Lucas said indifferently, “Its just a small favor.

Dont mention it, Mr.

Cole.”

When Edmund heard this, his eyes lit up, and he was even more pleased with Lucas.

Yesterday, when he suddenly had a heart attack and collapsed on the street, many onlookers had slowly gathered around him, but none of them had dared to come forward to lend him a helping hand.

Although he had some special medicine that would save his life during a heart attack in his breast pocket, no one had dared to go forward to help him.

While he was experiencing difficulties and feeling like he was about to die, Lucas ignored the warnings of the people around him and shoved the life-saving pill into his mouth.

When he could finally breathe properly again, Lucas had already vanished quietly from the crowd before he could thank him.

Lucas didnt have expectations of being thanked by him either.

Even now, after learning of Edmunds identity, Lucas still didnt seem to have any change in expression, unlike the others who were getting agitated, excited, anxious, and nervous.

Even when Edmund declared that Lucas was his savior and expressed his intentions to repay him for his kindness, Lucas didnt seem overjoyed and merely said indifferently that it was just a simple favor.

Indeed, it might have been an effortless favor for Lucas.

But for Edmund, it was a tremendous favor because he had saved his life!

The qualities Lucas showed made Edmund thoroughly pleased with him, and he even felt a sense of admiration for Lucas despite having met all kinds of people in life!

“Young man, Lucas, how old are you this year” Edmund asked with a benevolent smile.

“Im twenty-eight this year,” Lucas answered with raised brows.

“Lucas, youre still so young, so you should still be single, right My granddaughter is a nice girl.

What do you think of her” Edmund asked with a smile as he pushed the young woman beside him toward Lucas smilingly.

“Grandpa!” Alexis immediately felt awkward and embarrassed as she blushed and complained, “What are you doing He got married a long time ago to the beautiful lady beside him!”

During the antique exhibition in the arts center yesterday, Alexis had already seen Lucas holding hands with Cheyenne and calling her his wife. Whats up with Grandpa today Hes trying to set me up with someone without even informing me in advance.

This is so embarrassing!

Hearing Alexis say that Lucas was already married, Edmund immediately looked disappointed and awkward.

He hurriedly looked at Lucas and the extremely gorgeous Cheyenne beside him.

He frantically apologized, “Ah! Im sorry.

Im so sorry.

I didnt know you two were already married.

I didnt mean to offend you in any way.

Im really sorry!”

Edmund, the esteemed helmsman of the Cole family, was actually apologizing to the two of them in such a personable manner.

Lucas and Cheyenne naturally wouldnt pursue the matter, and they were merely amused by it.

They didnt expect that Edmund would want Lucas to marry his granddaughter despite having only met Lucas once, making them feel caught between laughter and tears.

The others around them were surprised to see the prestigious Edmund speaking to Lucas in such a nice and grounded way.

The scene of Edmund losing his temper and making Matthew Benson kneel down in front of him was still fresh in their memory.

But he was now behaving like a completely different person toward Lucas.

Besides, Edmund actually immediately took a liking to Lucas and even wanted him to marry his granddaughter, making countless people so surprised that their jaws dropped.

The Turners looked incredibly sullen.

They had always despised Lucas, this live-in husband, but Edmund looked at him differently, making them somehow feel extremely frustrated and depressed.

The two other old men who followed Edmund were Sam and Robert, who had previously visited the Turners as well.

Robert saw his son, Justin, standing in the crowd with his head hung low and hesitating to go forward despite having already seen his father.

He inwardly cursed Justin for being stupid, but he nevertheless asked him to come over.

“Justin, what are you still standing there for Hurry up and come over to greet your Uncle Edmund!”

Justin was still afraid of Edmunds imposing aura at first.

But when he noticed that his father seemed quite close to Edmund and had even walked in together with him, he immediately hurried toward them gleefully.

He then greeted Edmund respectfully, “Hello, Uncle Edmund! Im Justin.”

Robert happily pulled Justin over and introduced him to Edmund.

“Edmund, this is my son, Justin.

Ive already handed over the Heron Corp.

to him, and hes doing quite well in all aspects.”

Edmund glanced at Justin indifferently and merely said, “Oh.”

Standing at the side, Sam immediately felt that something was amiss.

As an old comrade of Edmund, Sam understood him very well and thus knew that Edmund hated people trying to seek connections with him the most.

So despite being longtime friends with Edmund, he had never tried to recommend anyone to Edmund or try to leverage the Cole familys power.

Otherwise, his familys status in LA wouldnt have stagnated at the second-tier level for such a long time.

But Robert actually now took it upon himself to introduce his son to Edmund and even praised the latter for his competency.

He was obviously hoping that Edmund would give his son more help.

This was an enormous taboo for Edmund!

Although the three of them were friends and even considered themselves fellow comrades, Sam was, strictly speaking, the only one actually close to Edmund.

Back then, Robert hadnt had much interaction with Edmund in the army, and he had merely gotten to know him through Sam much later.

So Robert actually didnt know Edmund too well and was thus unaware of this taboo.

But Sam couldnt explain this explicitly to Robert now, and all he could do was shoot him a meaningful glance in hopes that Robert would catch his hint and stop provoking Edmund.

Unfortunately, Robert failed to notice Sams efforts and was still praising his son in front of Edmund smilingly.

“Grandpa, youre here too!” At this moment, Nikki walked over and greeted Robert obediently before looking at Edmund with a gleaming gaze.

She had already noticed that her paternal grandfather, Robert, was acquaintances with the prestigious Edmund Cole, so she definitely wouldnt let go of such a great opportunity.

Sams heart sank. Is Robert going to act foolishly again
