Charlotte’s words were clear and merciless.

Eddie’s expression changed drastically.

If not for the fact that the Coles were right beside him, he would have really given his trouble-making granddaughter two tight slaps on her face!

“Charlotte, what are you babbling about? I did have some misunderstandings about… Lucas before this, but they’ve long been resolved.
He and Cheyenne got married a long time ago, and I’ve long treated him as my grandson-in-law.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have invited him to attend my grandson’s wedding today,” Eddie hurriedly explained and then glared at Charlotte to hint to her to behave herself and not cause any more trouble.

Charlotte was unmoved, as she felt that Eddie was being totally absurd and ridiculous.

Lucas had deliberately given them gifts worth millions of dollars, but they had thrown them away like garbage and even hurled all sorts of insults at him.
When Damon and Matthew had come to confront Lucas earlier, the Turners had not only not put in a single word for Lucas, but they had even wanted Lucas to kneel down and apologize to them.
They had also lashed out at him for creating trouble for them and said that they would have driven him out if they had known earlier.

Those uncouth words made Charlotte feel extremely upset, so how could the Turners have the cheek to make Lucas help them entertain the extinguished guest and build connections for them?

They were simply ridiculous!

She knew that Lucas didn’t want to hold it against them for hers and Cheyenne’s sake.
But it was precisely this reason that she didn’t want these people who had bullied Lucas to gain benefits by making use of him and his connections!

“Grandpa, just a few minutes ago, you guys said that you wanted to kick Lucas out and even wanted him to get on his knees and apologize.
Why didn’t you consider the fact that Lucas is your grandson-in-law at the time?” Charlotte rebuked sullenly.

“Shut up!” Eddie roared loudly with obvious anger on her face.

Cheyenne stepped forward, walked toward Charlotte, and then said to Eddie firmly, “Charlotte is right.
Why should she shut up?”

Tears welled up in her eyes as she slowly said, “Yesterday, Lucas gave you some premium tea leaves worth more than a million dollars, as well as some other expensive gifts.
But you discarded them into the trash can in front of us, accused Lucas of giving you imitation tea, and even drove him out of the house.
Did you spare a thought for our feelings then? Did you consider Lucas your grandson-in-law at the time?

“Today, Lucas was chastised and insulted by Aunt Gretchen for no rhyme or reason at all, but did you stand up for him? No, you didn’t.
When the helmsmen of the Parkers, the Bensons, and several notable LA families ganged up against him earlier, did you stand up for him? No, you didn’t!

“Not only did you not stand up for him, but you even made things worse by wanting him to get on his knees to apologize.
You even eagerly tried to draw a line between him and yourself because you were so scared that you would be implicated!

“Now that you’re aware Mr.
Cole has a higher status and that Lucas knows him, you’re making Lucas help you serve him, and you’re finally acknowledging him as your grandson-in-law.
Grandpa, I’m really disappointed in you.
You’re supposed to be our family and kin, but why have you become like this?”

Cheyenne was extremely disappointed, and she also felt aggrieved for Lucas, so she couldn’t control herself and burst into tears.

Eddie turned pale, and he felt extremely embarrassed to be rebuked in public by his granddaughters.
But he couldn’t find a reason to refute, so he could only stammer and explain, “Cheyenne! Ah, I… I don’t know how things turned out like this either.
I… I can’t help it! I’m just an old man.
What can I say?”

Alex couldn’t stand it any longer and lashed out at Cheyenne as her uncle.
“Cheyenne Carter, what nonsense are you saying? He is your grandfather.
Do you have any manners at all? Is this the way you should be speaking to your grandfather?”

Cheyenne was even more enraged!

She sneered and looked at Alex.
“Who are you to chide me for being rude? All these years, you and your family have been loafing around and leeching so much money from us.
Even the money used to build your house was taken from my mother.
It’s normal to borrow money from relatives, but you actually denied it and accused us of cheating you out of your money instead.
How ridiculous!

“You are my mother’s younger brother, and you’re living off my mother’s money.
Yet you called her by her full name and spoke to her rudely.
Do you think you’re fit to talk to me about manners?”

Alex was so infuriated that he was speechless.

He was the only son in the family, so he had been treasured by Eddie and his wife since he was a child.
Not only had he gotten used to taking money from Karen, but he would even scold her whenever he was displeased with something.
But he didn’t expect Cheyenne to chide him using these reasons.

Since he had already lashed out at his biological sister, he indeed wasn’t fit to scold Cheyenne for being rude.

Seeing that things were going awry, Gretchen quickly said, “Cheyenne, we’re all family.
Why…”

Before she could finish speaking, Cheyenne turned to face her and snapped, “And you too! Aunt Gretchen, you love throwing your weight around as an elder, but since when have you acted like one? You deliberately created trouble time and time again and even insulted Lucas and Charlotte.
When I was going through the toughest time of my life, you told me that your company was facing financial difficulties, so I lent you all my savings.
However, not only did you owe me money for such a long time, but you even said that I maligned you because I’m money-crazy!”

Gretchen looked extremely petulant as well.

Previously, they had already embarrassed themselves because of this matter, and things had finally blown over after a while.
Yet Cheyenne once again exposed her in front of everyone mercilessly.
Even the rest of the Turners were sullen.

Cheyenne turned to look at Nikki, who had been staying silent at the side but had secretly rolled her eyes.
She snapped, “You’re the most detestable one! For so many years, I have always treated you like a cousin and taken good care of you.
But what about you? You tried to use me as a bargaining chip with other men and repeatedly tried to set me up! If not for Lucas, I would have been completely ruined by you now!

“But despite all this, I still thought of you as my cousin and begged Lucas to save you.
But how did you repay us? Today, you have deliberately provoked and insulted him again and again, and you even badmouthed him in front of others! You’re just an ingrate who bites the hand that feeds you!”

Cheyenne looked at the Turners around her and said with anger and disappointment on her face, “I’ve really had enough of all of you so-called relatives! Ask yourselves.
We have treated you as our family, but what about you people? Have you ever treated us as your family?”

Cheyenne flew into a rage, which was rare of her.
The Turners were rendered utterly speechless.

The other guests looked at each other in dismay, secretly shocked by the Turners’ behavior.

Amid the awkward silence, Cheyenne pulled Lucas’s and Amelia’s hands and said without any hesitation, “Hubby, let’s go!”

Then the three of them walked toward the exit.
