Chapter 355: Sweet Time Together

Usually, most people would intervene when encountering such incidents because a man hitting women was deplorable.

But everyone in the store merely stood around them and watched coldly.

No one intended to go forward to pull Daniel back and stop him.

They had all witnessed everything that happened just now, and they felt that Rachelle and Daniel deserved to be in their current plight.

Both of them had problematic personalities and were just dogs biting each other now.

If they intervened, they might get themselves into trouble, so no one wanted to bother about their matters.

When Daniel finally had enough, he stopped hitting Rachelle and barked viciously, “Bitch, from now on, I have nothing to do with you! Dont ever show up in front of me again, or Ill beat you every single time I see you! Now, scram!”

After kicking Rachelle forcefully again, Daniel stormed out of the Zegna menswear store.

Meanwhile, Rachelle continued bawling her eyes out on the ground, her hair all messed up and unkempt.

Her face had also become bruised and swollen after being hit by Daniel, and her exquisite makeup had long become smudged, making her look hideous.

But no one took pity on her.

The security guard of the Zegna store walked over and said coldly, “Maam, if you want to continue crying, please do so outside the store, lest you disturb the customers in our store!”

Rachelle could only get up on her own while cursing Daniel for lying to her and being a heartless and violent jerk.

She even wanted to curse Cheyenne and Lucas out of habit, but as soon as she thought about it, she recalled how terrifying Lucas was and the warning Connor had just given.

So her words stopped in her throat, and she didnt dare to say anything.

Lucas and Cheyenne werent aware of what happened here.

They had already put the unpleasant episode behind them and were now strolling and window shopping on the streets, hand-in-hand like a sweet couple in love.

It was a new and pleasant experience for them both.

The autumn breeze was still a little warm as it gently blew on them, making them feel calm and at peace.

But Cheyenne was still a bit surprised by the incident in the store.

She knew quite a lot about Lucas because he had told her everything about him some time ago when they were on the rooftop garden of the Intercontinental Hotel.

For example, she had learned that he was a descendant of the Huttons, one of the eight most powerful families in DC, as well as the fact that he was the leader of Falcon Regiment.

She had also found out that he was the owner of the Stardust Corporation and many companies such as the Brilliance Corporation.

Furthermore, she also found out that he had impressive combat skills, and his subordinates were also just as good at fighting.

Lastly, she learned that Ethan Sawyer, the richest man in Orange County, had always looked at him in a different light and was very respectful toward him.

But she didnt expect that even the successor of the Hales would be so deferential to him.

In that case, among the four most powerful and wealthy families in Orange County, two were already subservient to him.

Coupled with the Stardust Corporation and the other companies he owned, she reckoned that he could be considered a powerful figure whom no one in Orange County dared to provoke.

But all of this was only a part of his identity and background that she knew.

She wondered just how much more he was hiding from her.

For some reason, Cheyenne suddenly thought of Dominic Carter.

In the beginning, Dominic Carter was committed to developing the familys business empire and becoming more powerful at the expense of forgoing their kinship and familial ties.

All he wanted was for the Carters to become one of the top families in Orange County, but he ended up angering Lucas by repeatedly bullying her.

As a result, the Carters were pushed to the verge of bankruptcy on several occasions, and they had even declined to become a third-rate or even fourth-rate family.

If Dominic hadnt treated her and Lucas so terribly, the Carters would have probably become a top family a long time ago.

They might have even joined the league of the current four most powerful families!

Cheyenne began to get a little lost in thought while pondering.

Lucas suddenly asked, “Whats on your mind”

Cheyenne came back to her senses and suddenly felt an urge to be playful as she mimicked a character from a TV show.

“I was thinking, how much more is there to you that I dont know”

Cheyenne had always been gentle and elegant, and she would rarely be playful and bubbly like the way she was behaving now.

Lucass heart skipped a beat. Cheyenne has let her walls down in front of me.

Thats why shes behaving out of the ordinary!

In high spirits, he shook her hand a little and grinned.

“In that case, Ill tell you.

All the businesses that the Hales owned have become mine.”

Cheyenne glared at him and chided, “Im being serious with you, yet youre fooling me with such words!”

Lucas sighed speechlessly.

“Hey, Im being serious too.

When have I ever dared to deceive you”

Cheyenne smiled without saying anything else.

But she was extremely astonished.

She was just joking because she knew that Lucas wasnt a boastful person who would lie and brag to others.

Since he said that the Hales businesses had become his, she knew he definitely meant it.

She figured out why Connor, the next helmsman of the Hales, was so respectful to him.

She didnt know how he managed to do it, but she didnt want to ask him about it either.

All she knew was that her husband was a powerful yet gentle person, and this was enough!

Upon seeing an ice cream parlor by the street, Cheyenne suddenly said, “Lucas, I suddenly want to eat ice cream!”

It was rare for Cheyenne to make such requests, so Lucas naturally obliged.

He immediately walked over to join the line.

After buying a large double-scoop cone of ice cream, he brought it to Cheyenne.

Cheyenne took the ice cream cone gleefully and began nibbling on it with great satisfaction.

Lucas stood next to her and gazed at her smilingly.

The light from the street light casting on Cheyennes face made her smile look incredibly alluring, and he suddenly felt a sweet and peaceful feeling within him.

He even wished that time would stop so that this moment could last forever.

Although he was just watching Cheyenne eat ice cream, the feeling in his heart was sweeter than ice cream.

“Here, do you want some” Cheyenne suddenly extended her hand to place the ice cream cone in front of Lucas.

She tilted her head slightly and looked at him with glistening eyes.

“Sure.” Without hesitation, Lucas took a small bite out of the ice cream cone she just ate.

The sweet and cold ice cream immediately melted in his throat, filling his heart with joy and bliss.

For the first time, Lucas found the taste of ice cream intoxicating.

It was the most delicious ice cream he had ever eaten.

Seeing Lucas eat some ice cream, Cheyenne smiled with even more joy in her eyes as she moved the cone back and took another bite out of it without hesitation.

They took turns taking bites out of the ice cream and soon finished the entire cone.

After throwing the napkin wrapped around the bottom of the cone in the trash, they exchanged glances, both finding their actions a little childish yet intimate.

Lucas suddenly raised his hand and gently grazed his thumb past Cheyennes lips to remove the remaining ice cream on them.

Cheyenne suddenly blushed and abruptly turned her head away.

She then said with obvious uneasiness and nervousness in her tone, “W-we should go meet up with Charlotte and Amelia now!”
