Chapter 962: No Need to Be Afraid
Although Adam seemed to have a gentle and harmless smile, Cheyenne wasn’t a simple-minded and ignorant girl who had just stepped into society. She was a capable woman who had single-handedly founded the Brilliance Corporation and developed it into its current scale.
She could tell at a glance that Will and Adam were just staging an act where one of them played the good guy while the other played the bad guy.
Moreover, she didn’t want to befriend the man in front of her who seemed to harbor designs on her.
“I don’t know you, and I don’t want to get to know you. We can forget about being friends! Please stop pestering me. If you continue to stop me, I will call airport security!” Cheyenne said coldly with a sullen look on her face.
“Hah, you’re not showing me any respect at all!” The smile on Adam’s face suddenly vanished, revealing a scowl as he stared at Cheyenne sinisterly.
No woman he had ever liked had ever been able to escape from his hands!
And the woman in front of him was so ignorant that Adam couldn’t bother to keep up with the act anymore and directly revealed his true colors.
Will sneered with an arrogant look on his face. “Call security? Go ahead! Try it!”
“I’m not afraid to tell you straight that the Piers are a shareholder of this airport. You can try and see if anyone will dare to interfere.”
Cheyenne immediately turned pale.
She looked around, and sure enough, there were two security guards in blue standing near them. They had obviously seen the conflict here, but they simply turned their heads away, as if they didn’t see anything.

Lucas had yet to arrive, and she was all alone. Without being able to rely on the security guards for help, she really couldn’t deal with these two scoundrels.
“Enough, beauty, come with us!” Adam said and winked at Will.
Will immediately understood. With a wicked smile, he stepped forward to grab Cheyenne’s arm.
Even if they took Cheyenne away by force, no one would dare to interfere…
Smack!
Just as Will was about to grab Cheyenne, an arm suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed his hand in time to stop him from touching Cheyenne.
Will was stunned, and he found that the person who grabbed his arm was a young man in his twenties!
“Where did you come from, punk? How dare you meddle with the Piers’ affairs?” Will cursed as soon as he spoke.
Adam immediately frowned. “Who do you think you are? Are you trying to be the hero saving the damsel in distress? Hah, you really have a death wis.h.!.+ What are you waiting for? Hurry up and let go.”
Cheyenne was stunned. After getting a clear look at the person grabbing Will, she immediately had joy all over her face. “Honey, you’re here!”
The young man who grabbed Will’s arm was none other than Lucas!
After Will and Adam heard the way Cheyenne addressed him, their expressions immediately changed.
They didn’t expect that this woman they had taken a fancy to was already in a relations.h.i.+p with another man who had rushed over so quickly.
But they weren’t bothered by the fact that she was attached. Adam was determined to get any woman he wanted!
“Punk, is this your woman? I’ve already taken a liking to her. I’ll give you thirty grand to let her accompany me for a night. How about it?” Adam said to Lucas nonchalantly.
“Screw off!” Lucas narrowed his eyes, and a trace of killing intent instantly burst out of his eyes as he twisted Will’s arm and snapped it!
Snap!
Amid the crisp sounds of bones cracking, Will’s arm was twisted badly, and he immediately shrieked in misery.
Lucas would never let off the man who dared to covet and insult his woman!
“Punk, how dare you lay a finger on my person?!” Adam immediately hollered.
He was furious about the fact that someone dared to harm his subordinate in this DC airport!
After letting go of Will’s arm, Lucas s.h.i.+fted his lethal gaze onto Adam.
Staring into Lucas’s cold and merciless eyes, Adam suddenly felt an immense fear surge in his heart.
“I’m warning you. Don’t mess around! I’m from the Pier family, one of the eight most powerful families in DC. If you dare to harm me, the Piers will never let you off!” Adam said sternly while pointing his finger at Lucas and retreating.
“The Piers? One of the eight top families in DC? So what?” Lucas sneered. “How dare you harbor designs on my woman? You’re really audacious!”
Then Lucas stepped forward and ruthlessly slapped Adam’s face!
Smack!
The slap sent Adam flying far!
“Honey! He’s… from the Pier family!” Cheyenne instantly turned pale as she grabbed Lucas’s hand nervously.
Just now, Will had brought up Adam’s ident.i.ty several times. So once she saw Lucas slapping Adam away, her heart immediately tightened.
Although she knew that Lucas had been in the army for a few years and was also the head of the Falcon Regiment in Calico, he had already left the army and had likely lost the protection provided by that ident.i.ty.
Moreover, although Lucas was also a Hutton, he had long been kicked out of the family, and he no longer had any authority or status in the family.
In this regard, he couldn’t compare to the scions of the eight top families.
It was especially so because they were now in DC, the turf controlled by these top families. Lucas’s subordinates were all in California, so they wouldn’t be able to be of any help.
Cheyenne was now most worried that Lucas would face the crazy revenge by the Piers. It would be terrible!
Lucas held Cheyenne’s hand and comforted her softly, “It’s alright. Don’t worry!”
When Cheyenne saw Lucas’s firm expression, her panicked heart slowly calmed down.
“Let’s go!” Lucas said. He took Cheyenne’s hand and walked out of the airport without even looking at Will and Adam, who were wailing on the floor.
At this moment, Adam, who had been sent flying by Lucas’s slap, finally got up from the floor with great difficulty while covering his red and swollen cheek. He yelled furiously, “Stop… stop! b.a.s.t.a.r.d, hold it right there!”
But Lucas and Cheyenne were both already far away and didn’t want to pay attention to him.
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Punk! How dare you ignore me and even hit me? I won’t let you off!” Adam roared at the top of his lungs, his heart filled with burning fury.
But before he could instruct airport security to help him catch them, Lucas and Cheyenne were long gone.
The two were already inside the car and driving toward the Howard residence.
“Honey, will it really be okay? What if that person…. takes revenge against you?” Cheyenne asked worriedly in the car.
Lucas smiled lightly. “Honey, there are some things I haven’t figured out how to tell you. But you just need to know that I don’t take the eight top families of DC seriously at all. They can’t pose a threat to me, and you don’t have to be afraid of them.”
