Chapter 675: Meeting An Old Friend

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although the corners of Lucas’s mouth twitched involuntarily after he heard Charlotte calling Lena a pretentious and scheming bitch, he agreed to her request immediately.

He only got to know Lena because she was Cheyenne’s best friend, and there was no strong friendship between them, so it didn’t matter to him that they couldn’t spend any time alone.

As for Charlotte’s threat of telling Cheyenne about it, Lucas didn’t take it to heart.

He had a clear conscience, so he wasn’t afraid of what Charlotte would say.

“Hmph, your attitude is good.”

Seeing that Lucas agreed without hesitation, Charlotte’s face eased up, but she quickly added, “Oh yes, apart from that pretentious bitch Lena, you’re not allowed to spend any time alone together with other women. No intimate contact either!

“Also, if there are other women, especially those with ulterior motives, who want to approach you in the future, you must be smart enough not to let yourself get taken advantage of, got it?”

“And you have to be wary and careful when attending gatherings, cocktail parties, and social functions in the future, especially when you eat and drink. Don’t let others spike your drinks or food and then end up waking up beside some strange woman. If you bring a pregnant woman home one day, Cheyenne and I won’t allow it. Do you understand?

“And….”

Charlotte was talking about some ordinary things at first. But toward the end, she got more and more absurd, leaving Lucas being caught between laughter and tears.

He reckoned that Charlotte must have read lots of strange novels, hence her… rich imagination.

“Okay, I promise! I’ll definitely keep an appropriate distance from all other women and respect myself. I will also pay attention to my food and drinks and not let women with ulterior motives have the possibility of getting close to me. Will this do?” Lucas said helplessly with a bitter smile.

“Hmph, you have to keep to your word!” Charlotte playfully crinkled her nose and finally forgave Lucas this time.

“Let’s go to the stalls over there and stroll around again! Just now, I set my sights on something, but I haven’t even had time to buy it yet! Lucas, you have to buy it for me!” Charlotte said coquettishly as he held onto Lucas’s arm.

“…” Lucas pointed to his arm Charlotte was holding and said speechlessly, “Didn’t you just say that I’m not allowed to have physical contact with any other woman?”

“Am I any other woman? I’m your sister!” Feeling a little ashamed and furious, Charlotte pinched Lucas’s arm.

Seeing Charlotte’s appearance, Lucas couldn’t help laughing.

But it was true that he had always treated Charlotte as his sister, and now that she really took herself as his sister, he felt elated.

“By the way, why did you suddenly come to San Francisco today? I haven’t heard you mention anything about coming here before. Do you have something to handle here in San Francisco?” Lucas asked curiously.

When he went out this morning, Charlotte had already left home early. If he had known that she was also coming to San Francisco, they could have traveled together.

“Of course I’m also here to attend the exchange!” Charlotte answered.

“You too…?” Lucas was a bit surprised.

After all, he had learned from the helmsmen Damon and Bruce that there were strict entry requirements for the Elite Business Exchange, and only the top-tier families and forces within California would receive an invitation.

He was surprised to hear that Charlotte had received an invitation to the exchange too.

Seeing how surprised Lucas was, Charlotte said with some displeasure, “Don’t be mistaken. The exchange I’m attending isn’t the Elite Business Exchange you’re attending. It’s just an ordinary one that the second and third-tier families and businesses are attending. It’s going to be held in the stadium.”

Only then did Lucas recall that Bruce had indeed mentioned this to him. The stadium where the ordinary business exchange was held was opposite the Walton Hotel, where the Elite Business Exchange was held, which was the reason for the large human traffic.

Charlotte was now the general manager of the Stardust Corporation’s Orange County branch and rather influential. It made sense for her to attend the ordinary business exchange.

Just as the two were about to reach the stalls at the entrance of the stadium, someone at the side called out in surprise.

“Charlotte?” It was the voice of a young woman.

Lucas and Charlotte turned around and saw a woman wearing brown aviator shades next to them, looking at Cheyenne in surprise.

Her arm was wrapped around a young man who looked like a wealthy scion beside her.

Both of them were wearing expensive clothes, almost all from designer brands.

Charlotte looked at the woman and asked in confusion, “Excuse me, do you know me?”

She felt that the woman’s voice sounded familiar, but the large aviator shades were covering almost half of her face, revealing only her wavy hair and bright red lips. Charlotte really couldn’t recognize her.

“It’s me! I’m Vanessa Jensen. Charlotte, can’t you even recognize me?” The woman laughed while taking off her aviator shades, revealing her face covered in exquisite makeup.

“Ah, it’s you, Vanessa!” Charlotte immediately recognized the woman, and she exclaimed in surprise, “I didn’t expect to run into you here today! What a coincidence!”

She initially wanted to immediately go up and hug Vanessa, her long-lost friend. But she decided not to do so after seeing Vanessa holding onto the arm of the man beside her, who was obviously her boyfriend.

But she was still beaming with joy as she quickly introduced her to Lucas. “Lucas, this is Vanessa, my best friend in high school! We haven’t even seen each other for years.”

Lucas nodded politely. “Hello.”

At this moment, Vanessa finally realized that there was a man standing beside Charlotte, whose arm she was holding.

It seemed that Charlotte’s relationship with this man should be similar to her own.

However…

Vanessa’s eyes quickly swept over Lucas. He was wearing extraordinarily shabby clothes, which were not of any proper brands, let alone luxury brands like Armani, Versace, Zegna, etc. They seem like clothes from random brands.

Oh, it turns out that Charlotte has a penniless boyfriend. What a waste of her beauty.. A wave of contempt surged in her heart as she arrogantly shifted her gaze away from Lucas.
