Chapter 422 - Snitching
When Nikki saw Lucas's terrifying gaze and the petrifying killer beside him, she was instantly frightened out of her wits.
As soon as Lucas gave the order, Stanley definitely wouldn't spare her!
She didn't want to die yet!
Nikki no longer cared about anything else and began crawling and scrambling toward Cheyenne. She hugged Cheyenne's thighs while bawling her eyes out. "Cheyenne, I-I'm sorry! You're right. I'm just an ingrate who's worse than a beast! I've let you down! But I really know my mistakes. Please forgive me on account that we're cousins and give me another chance, okay?"
"Don't mention that we're cousins ever again. I really wish I never had anything to do with you!" Cheyenne pushed Nikki away.
She had long been hurt and heartbroken by her so-called 'cousin' and was now utterly disgusted by her hypocritical words and crocodile tears.
Nikki didn't genuinely know her mistakes and was merely trying to make Cheyenne ask Lucas to spare her because she realized that the situation wasn't in her favor!
If not for the sudden appearance of a powerful expert like Stanley, Nikki would probably still be standing in front of her and smugly celebrating the fact that she had finally made Cheyenne sleep with another man!
The thought of this made Cheyenne feel disgusted.
Lucas stared at Nikki coldly and couldn't help having murderous intent. This woman had the audacity to make use of Cheyenne, plot against her, and even tried to exchange her innocence for her own benefit. She really deserves to die!
But although he was repulsed by Nikki and wished he could kill her, she was Cheyenne's cousin after all. Given Cheyenne's personality, she probably wouldn't let him kill Nikki now.
As expected, although Cheyenne hated Nikki for being so vicious and malicious, Nikki was still her cousin after all, and their mothers were sisters. So Cheyenne still couldn't bring herself to see Nikki die in front of her.
Cheyenne suddenly looked at Lucas and said, "Lucas, let her go. I don't want to see her again."
She was actually asking Lucas to show Nikki mercy and spare her.
Otherwise, Lucas really wouldn't.
Lucas had long expected Cheyenne to react this way. Since she didn't want Nikki to die, he would naturally respect her opinion.
But Lucas merely looked at Nikki coldly and warned her sternly, "This time, I'll spare you on account that my wife is pleading on your behalf. If you ever dare to let Cheyenne down again, I won't spare your life. You'd better remember my words!"
The killing intent in Lucas's eyes was so discernible that Nikki immediately hung her head low in horror after taking a mere glance at him. She hurriedly answered fearfully, "Yes! I will definitely reflect on myself and turn over a new leaf. I'll never dare to do anything to let Cheyenne and you down again!"
Lucas roared, "Get lost!"
Nikki frantically scrambled out of the room in panic, feeling as if she had been spared from a death sentence.
Soon, only the horrified and uneasy wealthy scions were left in the private room.
Among them, there were those who had had their limbs broken by Tyron and were kneeling on the ground as per Tyron's orders, not allowed to move a muscle.
Now, Tyron and Kenneth were both kneeling on the ground as well, and they were almost filling up the empty space at the entrance of the room.
With his head hung low, Tyron secretly panicked and wondered if his father, who was just next door, would realize that something was amiss and send the bodyguards to save him.
Although both of Tyron's bodyguards were now lying down in front of Stanley motionlessly and unable to get up, Matthew's bodyguards were the most elite of all the bodyguards working for the Bensons. So Tyron thought that they should be able to contend with Stanley!
At this moment, Tyron was full of resentment for the soundproofed walls of the private room because the sounds of the commotion here weren't audible from the room next door at all.
But at this moment, Nikki, who had just dashed out of the room and immediately wanted to leave the Lion Restaurant, suddenly had a change of mind when she passed the door of the room next door.
Bang!
The finely-made sturdy door of the private room was suddenly knocked open forcefully. Matthew and Damon, who were having a conversation over tea, both turned their heads at the same time, only to see a woman they didn't recognize barging in.
"Who are you? Get the hell out of here!" Damon flew into a rage and shouted at her.
The two bodyguards standing behind Matthew immediately walked toward her to throw her out of the room.
She raised her head and hurriedly said anxiously, "Sirs, Mr. Tyron and Kenneth are in the room next door, and they're about to be beaten to death!"
"What did you say?!" Matthew and Damon were dumbfounded. They both sprung up with a loud thud.
They had just left that room a short while ago, and the scions were still in that room. Who would be so daring to hit the two of them?!
"I'm Nikki Heron, a close friend of Kenneth. I struggled for my life and escaped from that room to report this to you! What I said is absolutely true! They're right next door. Just go inside to take a look, and you'll know! Saving their lives is the most important thing right now!" Nikki exclaimed anxiously, seemingly panic-stricken.
After a brief moment of losing his temper, Damon immediately said, "How dare that person hit Tyron? He must have a death wish! I won't let him off!"
Then he took the lead and rushed out.
Matthew had an incomparably gloomy gaze in his eyes.
He had never laid a finger on his precious son ever since he was born. Yet Tyron had been beaten up twice in LA, making him boil with fury! "I'll see who has the audacity to hit my son!"
Matthew stormed off to the room next door with both his powerful bodyguards.
He swore that he would beat the person who hit his son to death to vent his anger!
The rest followed closely behind the two big shots and dashed into the room next door one after another.
The nervousness on Nikki's face faded, and her lips slowly curled into a cold smile. "Hmph, Lucas Gray, you think you're so mighty, huh? All you have is Stanley Ray by your side. Let's see how a good-for-nothing like you faces the wrath of the helmsmen of the prestigious Parker and Benson families!"
