More seriously, if Charlotte really went home to tell Cheyenne about it, causing her to misunderstand too, Lucas simply couldn’t imagine what kind of scene would happen then.

“Lucas, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t asked you to help, things wouldn’t have turned out this way. I think I’d better go to Charlotte…” Lena looked at Lucas with an apologetic expression.

But before she could finish speaking, Lucas interrupted her, “No need. I’ll explain to Charlotte and also tell Cheyenne clearly what happened today.”

“No, you mustn’t tell Cheyenne!” Lena immediately said anxiously. “Cheyenne… I’m afraid she’ll overthink if she finds out. Besides, even if you clarify that it’s a misunderstanding, I think she’ll bear a grudge against me from now on. Lucas, please don’t tell her!”

She looked at Lucas with a pleading look.

After hearing what Lena said, Lucas felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart.

He and Lena were completely innocent to begin with, and even if they were misunderstood, there wouldn’t be any more problems as long as they explained things clearly.

Lucas understood Cheyenne’s character very well, so he knew that she definitely wouldn’t hold a grudge or get into a conflict with Lena because of it.

On the contrary, Lena seemed to have no trust in Cheyenne at all, and she also seemed to make Cheyenne sound like a narrow-minded person who liked to overthink, which made Lucas very uncomfortable.

“You don’t have to say anymore. Cheyenne is not that kind of person at all,” Lucas said coldly and stopped talking to her. He chased after Charlotte.

No matter what, he had to explain the matter clearly to Charlotte, the person who witnessed it, to clear up her misunderstanding.

“Hey, Luc…” Lena tried to call out to Lucas to make him stop, but he was so fast that his figure had already vanished into the bustling crowd in just a few seconds.

As Lena watched Lucas disappear among the sea of people, her face gradually dimmed, and she felt utterly dejected.

After a while, she hung her head low. Lucas, am I really just an ordinary friend to you? You refuse to say even one more word to me, yet you’re afraid that she will misunderstand you. Is Cheyenne so important to you… I’m really… so unwilling!

Lena clenched her fingers tightly, and her long fingernails dug into the flesh of her palm. But she seemed unaware of it as her heart was full of bitterness and frustration.

The first time she had met Lucas in the Opulence Club, she had been very unimpressed with him, the man Cheyenne had married, because she felt that apart from his handsome face, he was good for nothing.

But when a roaring motorbike suddenly appeared in front of the Sawyers’ villa shortly after their first meeting, Lucas appeared as if he had descended from Heaven and rescued her from her crisis in the nick of time.

From this moment on, Lena discovered that her heart, which had never beaten for anyone, suddenly pounded vigorously.

So afterward, she couldn’t help becoming more and more concerned about Lucas, desperately wanting to know everything about him and get closer to him.

Afterward, when she was once again almost assassinated in LA, Lucas once again suddenly appeared and saved her again.

She thought that it had to be God’s will and arrangement to let her true love rescue her from danger twice.

Lena always thought so.

Thus, even after she tried to seduce Lucas at the pool on the top floor of LA’s Intercontinental Hotel by wearing a bikini and pretending to sprain her ankle but was ultimately rejected by him, Lena still didn’t want to give up.

When she ran into Lucas outside the Walton Hotel just now, she was extremely surprised and stopped behaving restrainedly. She even used her high heels as an excuse to get the opportunity to hold onto his arm. God knows how blissful she felt just now.

Lena hoped that time would stop at this moment forever and never flow forward again.

Even when Clement got the wrong idea about her relationship with Lucas, she didn’t think about explaining at all and instead felt a burst of joy.

But the wonderful moment was short-lived, lasting only two short minutes before Charlotte’s sudden appearance interrupted it.

When she saw Lucas’s somewhat panicky explanation and heard him clarify that she and he were just ordinary friends, Lena felt that her heart was about to shatter into pieces.

Now, Lucas left her behind and ran after Cheyenne’s sister without looking back for fear that she would misunderstand and eventually upset Cheyenne.

What about me then?

I’m so miserable now. Will anyone care if I’m sad or not?

Bitter tears streamed down Lena’s cheeks quietly.

Meanwhile, the tall and long-legged Lucas quickly caught up with Charlotte and tried to explain to her that it was a misunderstanding.

“Charlotte, what just happened was really just a misunderstanding. I only gave Lena a hand because she’s Cheyenne’s friend. I really don’t mean anything else!

“Don’t you know what kind of a person I am? You should be very clear that Cheyenne is the only woman I love.

“I… Ah, I don’t even know what to say. Anyway, this is definitely a misunderstanding, and I swear that there definitely isn’t anything between me and her!”

Lucas kept chasing after Charlotte to explain to her. She was extremely furious and annoyed at first and wanted to ignore him, but when she saw how anxiously he was explaining, she slowly began to calm down.

In fact, in hindsight, she recalled that although Lena had indeed been holding onto Lucas’s arm, he had actually stretched his arm out rather far, so he didn’t really have any intimate contact with her.

If he was really cheating on Cheyenne with Lena, their actions should have been more intimate.

Besides, they were right in the middle of the Elite Business Exchange and the ordinary business exchange, where large crowds were coming and going. Many of them were definitely people of the major families of Orange County, as well as people who knew either Lucas or Lena.

Even if they were in an affair, they shouldn’t have openly shown their affection for each other in public because they couldn’t possibly want everyone to find out.

Thus, it was very likely that it was indeed a misunderstanding, as Lucas said.

Actually, Charlotte knew how well Lucas treated Cheyenne, so she reckoned that he wouldn’t betray Cheyenne.

After Charlotte figured everything out, her angry face eased up slightly, and she slowed down a little.

But the thought of the expression on Lena’s face when she was holding Lucas’s arm just now still made Charlotte uncomfortable.

Indeed, it was possible that Lucas was honest and aboveboard and didn’t have any other feelings for Lena, but there was definitely something wrong with Lena!

Thinking of this, Charlotte puffed up her cheeks again.

She turned around and stared at Lucas angrily. “Fine, on account that you’ve explained so much, I’ll believe you this time!

“But you must stay away from Lena, that pretentious and scheming bitch, in the future. And even more so, you are not allowed to be alone with her again! Otherwise, I’ll tell Cheyenne about it right away!” Charlotte said unyieldingly..
