Chapter 470: Two-Faced

Chapter 470: Two-Faced

As the heiress of the Coles, Alexis hated the scheming tricks of pretentious women.

Just now, Nikki was still pretending to be a pitiful victim of bullying, and now, she called Lucas a chronic liar who couldn’t be trusted.

Alexis remembered how conceited and arrogant Nikki was at the antique exhibition yesterday. She also remembered how the man beside Nikki kept insulting and humiliating Lucas and Cheyenne.

Yet she was now deliberately pretending to be a vulnerable woman. Who was she putting on a show for?

She looked at Nikki coldly and said with disgust, “Do you think the Coles are all fools who can’t even find out who saved my grandfather’s life and would be duped by an impersonator?”

Nikki received a great shock and hurriedly said, “No, no, no, Miss Cole, I definitely didn’t mean that! I really just wanted to give you a reminder out of good intentions…”

“Save your good intentions! I don’t want to hear any more of this stupid nonsense that you’re saying to sow discord! Don’t think everyone is as stupid as you are. If you dare to say one more word of nonsense, I will make the Herons vanish from LA immediately!”

Although Alexis was young, her tone was full of an imposing and formidable aura. Besides, she was the heiress of the Cole family, so she definitely had the confidence to say this and wasn’t just trying to scare her.

Nikki was completely intimidated and deterred by Alexis’s aura, so much that she shuddered and immediately fell silent, not daring to say another word.

She was obviously displeased to be chided by a young woman several years younger than her, but the Coles were clearly prestigious and powerful, so she didn’t dare to show her emotions.

Seeing that Nikki had angered the heiress of the Cole family with just a few words, Robert was so enraged that he wanted to slap Nikki on the spot. “Ignorant brat, hurry up and apologize to Miss Cole!”

He had merely managed to get acquainted with the Coles because of his friendship with Sam. If his foolish granddaughter ruined it for him, he might even have the desire to kill her!

Petrified, Nikki hurriedly lowered her head to apologize to Alexis, “Miss Cole, I… really didn’t mean it! I’m indeed a fool who didn’t think twice before speaking, so please be magnanimous and not hold it against someone like me!”

Alexis harrumphed coldly in disdain. “Of course I can’t be bothered to stoop to your level.”

She turned her head to look at Robert and said coldly, “But Mr. Heron, you ought to take your granddaughter in hand. I just arrived in LA yesterday, and I’ve already met her twice. She has left a very bad impression every single time. She’s either deliberately bullying others or pretending to be weak and vulnerable just to frame others. I’m magnanimous enough not to bother, but if your granddaughter ends up offending someone else and digging her own grave, they may not be as kind and forgiving as me.”

Robert turned pale while being chided by a junior and felt extremely awkward. But Edmund merely stood at the side without saying anything, so he clearly agreed with his granddaughter’s words, making Robert feel even more dismayed.

He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. “Yes! Miss Cole, you’re right. I’ll definitely discipline my granddaughter and prevent her from creating any trouble again from now on!”

Seeing that even the patriarch of the Heron family was being so respectful to a young woman in her twenties, all the guests didn’t dare to say anything more.

Although she was young, she was still the heiress of the Cole family, and it was only normal for her to be spoiled and arrogant. The guests were in no place to make any comments.

Even Matthew and Damon didn’t dare to say anything else.

But the next second, Alexis, who was an arrogant heiress in the eyes of everyone, grinned at Lucas radiantly and even beamed with joy when she saw the lovely little girl beside him. She immediately walked over and bent down. “Wow! Lucas, is she your daughter? She’s so pretty!”

When the Coles sent their subordinates to find out who Edmund’s savior was yesterday, they hadn’t only found out about Lucas but also checked out his family. So Alexis knew since yesterday that Lucas was not only already married but also had a five-year-old daughter named Amelia.

But after seeing Amelia for the first time, she was immediately full of adoration for Amelia, who had inherited the excellent genes of both Lucas and Cheyenne.

If not for the fact that there were so many people around, she would have gone forth to pinch the cheeks of the incredibly adorable and doll-like Amelia.

Amelia was frightened by Alexis’s enthusiastic gaze and quickly cowered behind Lucas, but she nonetheless said politely, “You’re very pretty too.”

Although she was still young, she could tell the difference between good and bad by intuition. After watching Alexis lash out at Nikki, who often badmouthed her parents, Amelia had developed a good impression of Alexis.

Alexis’s heart was about to melt from Amelia, who was keeping her eyes wide open. After making a strange sound, she immediately squatted down beside Amelia to speak to her. Now, she no longer had the domineering and intimidating aura of an heiress, which made many people’s jaws drop in shock.

The difference in attitude was immense!

Edmund had long gotten used to seeing his granddaughter behave in such a manner, so he didn’t bother about her. He merely said to Lucas smilingly, “Lucas, is it your relative’s wedding today?”

The flower stands, congratulatory slogans placed at the hotel entrance, and decorative arrangements in the hotel lobby were all signs of a wedding.

The glass doors and windows at the entrance seem to have been shattered, and there was also an awkward tension in the lobby.

But Edmund was a knowledgeable person who had seen a lot of the world and naturally didn’t ask about what had happened.

Lucas was about to speak. But from the side, Eddie immediately strode over, with his heart skipping. He laughed and interjected, “Mr. Cole, nice to meet you! I am Lucas’s grandfather-in-law, Eddie Turner, and it’s my grandson’s wedding day today. It’s a great honor to have you here, and we are all pleasantly surprised and flattered!

“This way, please. Lucas, don’t just stand there. Quickly invite Mr. Cole to take a seat!”

Eddie’s face was flushed, and he was now speaking to Lucas with unprecedented enthusiasm, as if he had never mocked Lucas and looked down on him before.

The drastic change in his attitude didn’t take Lucas by surprise because most of the Turners were just that mercenary and would tend to bully the weak while fearing the strong. They had probably inherited it from Eddie.

Although Lucas found it ridiculous, he didn’t want to embarrass Eddie in public on Cheyenne’s account.

However, while Lucas couldn’t be bothered to get back at him, Charlotte couldn’t tolerate it any longer because she was absolutely disgusted by the Turners’ mercenary attitude and hypocrisy.

“Grandpa, did you forget something? You refused to acknowledge Lucas as your grandson-in-law and kept forcing him to divorce my sister. Just now, you even yelled at him like you were going to kill him. Why are you suddenly calling yourself his grandfather-in-law now? Is it just because Lucas now knows a powerful bigwig?”
