Chapter 388: Stopped at the Entrance

Chapter 388: Stopped at the Entrance

Upon hearing what Lucas said, Cheyenne immediately felt rather surprised.

But she soon understood what he meant.

Since Kenneth had given Cheyenne an invitation and the opportunity to socialize with the upper-class families and enterprises in LA, there was no reason for her to give it up for nothing.

Regardless of what Kenneth’s motive was, Lucas was now by Cheyenne’s side, so there was likely no way Kenneth could achieve his goal.

Having figured this out, Cheyenne stopped refusing. “Alright, let’s go in and take a look then!”

Seeing Cheyenne finally agreeing, Nikki heaved a huge sigh of relief. At the very least, Kenneth couldn’t blame her for being incompetent because she got Cheyenne to stay.

Although Kenneth was extremely displeased with Lucas’s appearance, his eyes flashed, and he soon seemed excited.

Soon, they walked to the front door of the arts center and were about to enter, but two security guards stopped them at the entrance.

“Hello, Mr. Parker!” The security guards greeted Kenneth respectfully and said with a conflicted expression, “I’m so sorry, but there’s an extremely important exhibition in our arts center today, so all guests must present their invitation to be granted entry. We know who you are, but it’s our duty to check. We hope to seek your understanding!”

Kenneth smiled. “You don’t have to apologize. You guys are doing a great job. Rules are meant to be followed, and since the guests today are all distinguished figures, the security has to be tight. Those without invitations must not be permitted entry!”

He praised the two security guards before cooperatively handing over the three invitation cards in his hand to them. At the same time, he deliberately glanced at Lucas.

The security guards carefully checked the invitation cards and confirmed that they were genuine. However, there were four people in front of them but only three invitation cards.

“Mr. Parker, I’m sorry, but you only have three invitation cards. It seems… you’re missing one,” one of the security guards said.

Kenneth smirked. “That’s right. The invitation cards are for these two beautiful ladies and me. This other person has nothing to do with me.”

The security guards immediately turned to look at Lucas and scrutinized him a little. The fact that they were tasked to guard such an important event and check the invitations meant that they weren’t silly. Soon, they understood what Kenneth meant.

Although the rules were that people needed an invitation card to enter, they didn’t necessarily have to be followed strictly. If a prestigious and esteemed person wanted to bring a few friends with them, it wasn’t impossible to allow it.

But they could tell from what Kenneth said that he didn’t want to let Lucas enter.

“Yes, Mr. Parker. These three invitations for you and the two beautiful ladies beside you are valid. Please come in!” One of the security guards smiled and gestured for them to enter the arts center.

The other security guard stood in front of Lucas with a hostile expression to stop him while questioning curtly, “Where’s your invitation card?”

Nikki immediately gloated and gibed with derision, “Hmph, the guests invited to the exhibition today are all wealthy and of noble status, unlike someone over here who doesn’t have a single invitation card at all. He isn’t fit to enter!”

Cheyenne’s face turned sullen as she finally figured out that Kenneth had been waiting to humiliate Lucas at the entrance.

They were not locals of LA and only came to attend Cheyenne’s cousin’s wedding. They naturally couldn’t have received invitations in advance. Even Cheyenne was granted entry only because of the invitation card Kenneth had given her. So Lucas certainly couldn’t have an invitation card.

Cheyenne held Lucas’s arm and said resolutely, “Forget it. I said that Lucas and I are one. Since he can’t enter, I’ll pass too.”

Kenneth immediately sulked. This woman really doesn’t know any better!

Feeling rather touched, Lucas suddenly said smilingly, “Cheyenne, just go ahead and enter with them first. Wait for me inside. I’ll go in to look for you in a while!”

His gaze was full of certainty and confidence that made Cheyenne subconsciously trust him.

In fact, she would believe anything Lucas said.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you inside then,” Cheyenne said to Lucas with a gentle smile.

“Hmph, you really brag without thinking it through. Do you think it’s that easy to get an invitation? How foolish!” Nikki sneered and said to the two security guards at the entrance, “Look carefully. This person doesn’t have an invitation. If you let him sneak in later and he wreaks havoc inside, the Coles will be furious, and you’ll be in trouble! Do you hear me?”

Nikki spoke in a commanding tone, and she was just short of asking the security guards to chase Lucas away.

The security guards hurriedly agreed, “Miss, please rest assured. We will definitely follow the rules strictly and not let just anyone in!”

Then they stood in front of Lucas to stop him like they were a wall, staring at him with hostile gazes.

“Let’s go!” In high spirits, Kenneth stepped into the exhibition hall of the arts center.

With a triumphant smile, Nikki followed closely behind Kenneth and entered too.

Cheyenne was at the back of the group. She looked at Lucas worriedly. “I’ll wait for you.” She then entered the hall.

Soon, Lucas was the only one left in front of the main entrance of the arts center.

“Punk, why are you still standing at the door and blocking the way? If you don’t have an invitation, you’d better get lost. Don’t think you can bluff your way through and sneak in!”

At this moment, there was no one else at the entrance, and the two security guards began chasing Lucas away like he was garbage.

Lucas ignored them and simply looked down at the time on his watch.

“It should be here soon,” he said calmly.

In the eyes of the security guards, Lucas was deliberately refusing to leave and just pretending to have an invitation so that he could loiter at the entrance.

“Damn it. Did you not hear what we said? We told you to get lost. With the two of us guarding here, don’t even think about finding a chance to sneak in!”

“Hah, take a good look at yourself in the mirror. The guests of the exhibition today are all prestigious, and we’ve seen many like you who try to sneak in and build connections with those esteemed figures. You’d better give up before we teach you a lesson!”

The security guards began yelling at Lucas, and one of them even pulled out a baton from behind his waist, waved it in front of Lucas, and gave him a stern warning.

Without even blinking, Lucas said indifferently, “You two better behave yourselves and not do anything. My invitation card will be delivered to me shortly.”

The security guard sneered. “Hmph, you? Quit playing tricks in front of us! Don’t you understand English? Hurry up and get lost!”

Then the security guard raised the baton in his hand and tried to hit Lucas with it!
