At this moment, Lucas had just arrived back in Orange County.

Flynn called Lucas and briefly reported the situation in LA to him.

“Lucas, weve just received news that after word about the destruction of the Brookes got out, several families in LA approached the Brookes to exact revenge on them.

However, Andrew Brooke lied and scared them away by claiming that Stanley Ray would immediately return.

Currently, the Brookes have all fled LA, and they seem to have headed south, but we dont have their exact destination.”

Lucass lips curled into a faint smirk.

“That old fogy Andrew Brooke is indeed a sly old fox.

As I said before, its all up to them whether the Brookes can survive or not.

Since theyve left LA, theres no need for us to bother about them anymore.”

“Yes!” Flynn immediately acknowledged.

“I also have one more thing to report to you.

The businesses and properties of the Brookes now belong to you.

But just now, we found out that the Parkers intend to intervene and seize all of them.

What do you think we should do…”

“The Parkers How bold of them! How dare they covet my things.

They must have failed to consider why the Brookes were destroyed.

What a foolish bunch.

Let Stanley handle this matter and try to deter them.

When necessary, you may attack.

But tell him not to get anyone killed.”

Lucas wasnt worried about the affairs in LA because he had kept Stanley there, all for the sake of using the reputation he had built to assist Flynn in taking care of the matters there quickly.

“Yes, Lucas!” Flynn felt relaxed after hearing Lucass arrangements.

With a terrifying and intimidating expert like Stanley in LA, it would be a matter of time before the things there were taken care of.

As soon as Lucas hung up the call with Flynn, he went to the kindergarten to pick Amelia up from school.

Then he went to the Brilliance Corporation to pick Cheyenne up.

Cheyenne had been frowning throughout the journey home, as if she was troubled about something.

“Whats wrong Did something happen” Lucas asked with concern while driving.

Only then did Cheyenne return to her senses.

She shook her head and said worriedly, “Im just a little worried about my dad.

Hes been missing for the past few days, and I cant reach him through the phone.

Im really worried… that he might have met a mishap.”

Lucas frowned slightly too.

Previously, Cheyennes father, William, often stayed out late and refused to go home.

Once, he got dead drunk and was later found gambling at the casino in the Opulence.

He was then nabbed and forced to return about 800,000 dollars in cash.

If Lucas hadnt arrived in time to save him, William would have had his limbs cut off.

But after that, William didnt reflect much on himself and still continued staying out all the time.

Even though they had already moved to the villa in the middle of Pearl Lake, William probably wasnt aware of it because he hadnt been home in days.

And when Cheyenne tried to contact him, she couldnt reach him through his phone nor find him at all.

Seeing how worried she was, Lucas comforted, “Its alright.

Ill go look for William later.

I promise Ill find him and take him home.”

Only after hearing his words did Cheyenne feel relieved.

As long as Lucas made a promise, he would definitely fulfill it.

This was the sense of trust and reliability that she had felt from Lucas over this period of time.

Soon after Lucas drove Cheyenne and Amelia home, Cheyennes phone suddenly started ringing.

She answered the call and listened for a while before her expression changed drastically.

She said anxiously, “Really Okay, I know.

Ill get going now! Thank you!”

After she hung up, her eyes turned red, and she was on the verge of tears.

“Whats wrong Who called” Lucas asked.

“A friend of mine.

She just told me that she saw my dad gambling in Little Atlantis City!” Cheyenne said in misery, sounding like she was sobbing.

Lucas knew about Little Atlantis City.

It was a place modeled after the internationally renowned Atlantis City Resort located on Paradise Island in the capital of the Bahamas.

Little Atlantis City was the top entertainment joint in the city and housed the largest casino in town, as well as some brothel-like places.

He didnt expect that Wiliam hadnt learned his lesson at all after the previous incident in the Opulence.

He even continued gambling in a place like Little Atlantis City.

Gambling was a terrible vice in the first place, and many gambling addicts often ended up losing everything, resulting in the destruction of their families.

William was rather silly too, as he would often fall into the traps laid by others.

In a place like a casino, he was just like a piece of fat meat that those with ulterior motives were looking forward to slaughtering.

Lucas frowned.

It would be simple if they just wanted to bring William home, but Lucas wanted him to wake up and quit his vices.

Thus, he would have to do it the hard way.

Thinking of this, Lucas looked at Cheyenne and said softly, “We have to think of a way to make your dad quit his addiction.

I have a solution for this, but I need your cooperation.”

Cheyenne quickly nodded.

“Tell me.

As long as it can make him quit his gambling addiction, I will cooperate with you and do whatever you ask of me!”

Lucas told Cheyenne his plan.

“Will… that work Will it cause any trouble” she asked, feeling worried after hearing what he said.

“Dont worry.

With me around, it will be fine,” he said comfortingly.

His words instantly made her feel much more at ease.

“Okay, lets set off now!” Cheyenne exclaimed.

They put Amelia in Charlottes care before driving off to Little Atlantis City.

Soon, Lucas and Cheyenne arrived at the luxurious and ostentatious Little Atlantis City.

“Welcome, may I ask what type of entertainment services the two of you would like Our usher will lead the way,” the front desk attendant greeted in a sweet voice and smile.

“We would like to go to the casino on the top floor,” Lucas said.

Previously, Cheyennes friend had informed her that she saw William in the casino on the top floor.

“Im so sorry, but if youd like to go to the top floor, you have to be a platinum level member of Little Atlantis City,” the front desk attendant said respectfully.

“What can we do about it” Lucas said as he took out a gold and black card.

After the front desk attendant saw the card, her eyes instantly lit up, and she said in a softer and more pleasant voice, “Sir, there are two ways you can apply for membership.

If you have a member referral, you only need…”

“How much will it cost I want two platinum membership cards,” Lucas interrupted.

In fact, the rules of such places were largely similar.

If you came with a friend who was a longtime member of the place, the fee for a platinum membership card would be much lower.

But if you were purely a newcomer without a referral or a friend to introduce you, you would have to pay more to get a membership card due to safety reasons.

Lucas was now anxious to go upstairs to look for William together with Cheyenne, so he couldnt be bothered to find someone to refer him and simply offered money.

“Alright… If you apply for the membership card directly, it will cost one hundred and fifty thousand dollars each.

Would you like two” the front desk attendant asked smilingly.
