“No… I-I don’t want to die! Please forgive me!” Regina was so frightened that she slumped to the ground and burst into tears. There was already a pool of liquid beneath her body. The order had frightened her so much that she had wet her pants.
Nicholas’s mind was blank. When he saw Regina next to him, he picked her up by her collar and hollered furiously, “You b.i.t.c.h, you caused this to happen to me! If you hadn’t suddenly walked over to pick a fight with your cla.s.smate, how could I have offended Mr. Gray for you? It’s all your fault, b.i.t.c.h!
“Oh right, your cla.s.smate! Isn’t Mr. Gray’s wife your college cla.s.smate? Hurry up and plead with her! Beg her husband to spare us!
“Hurry up! Quickly beg her for mercy!”
Nicholas’s furious roar made Regina snap back to her senses. She hurriedly knelt on the ground, crawled to Cheyenne, and pleaded in tears, “Cheyenne, I know I’m wrong for what I did earlier. I really know my mistake now!
!!
“No matter what, we were college cla.s.smates for four years, and you have always been so kind and nice. You definitely won’t just watch me die, right?
“Please save me! As long as you let me off this time, I will never provoke you again!”
Looking at Regina, who had always been arrogant, crying and begging her for mercy, Cheyenne suddenly felt a little sympathy for her.
No matter what, Regina had been her cla.s.smate for four years. Cheyenne couldn’t bear to see her really get killed, chopped up, and fed to dogs.
“Honey, how about we spare them this time?” Cheyenne looked at Lucas, feeling conflicted.
Lucas sighed. He knew that Cheyenne had always been soft-hearted, and it was hard for her to be harsh to even a vicious woman like Regina who spoke ill of her.
But since it was Cheyenne’s request, Lucas would naturally agree to it.
“Alright, on account that Cheyenne pleaded for you, I’ll spare you this once,” Lucas said coldly.
Hearing this, Regina and Nicholas were overjoyed, and they frantically thanked, “Thank you, Ms. Carter. Thank you, Mr. Gray!”
“You can be spared from death but not punishment! From now on, I don’t want to see the two of them in DC again,” Lucas said to Rayson.
Of course, Lucas didn’t have the spare time to make sure that these two shameless people really left DC. So he left this matter to the Williams to take care of it.
To be honest, it was already considered a very light punishment. If Cheyenne hadn’t pleaded for mercy, Lucas would have really wanted these two to vanish from DC forever.
Rayson naturally complied. He quickly agreed and then yelled at the two people on the ground. “Did you hear that? Mr. Gray is kind enough to spare your lives, but from today onward, you have to get lost from DC! If I find out that you’re still in DC, don’t blame me for being heartless!”
Nicholas and Regina were both grimacing in misery.
Both of them were born and raised in DC, and all their relatives, friends, and connections were here. If they left DC and went elsewhere, they would have to start all over again.
For example, the reason Nicholas could do well in DC was that his last name was Williams. He rode on the prestige of his family, and everyone showed him respect.
If he was really driven out of DC, with his own abilities, who would care about him?
The same went for Regina. If they left DC, Nicholas would be nothing. Where could she go to find herself a better and richer man then?
Having gotten used to seeing the wealth and prosperity of DC, Regina couldn’t tolerate the idea of getting together with the scion of a lower-tier family in another city.
“Idiot! Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and beg your cla.s.smate not to drive us out of DC! If we really leave DC, everything we have will be gone. What can we do then?” Nicholas kicked Regina again and told her to go and plead with Cheyenne.
Regina obediently threw herself in front of Cheyenne’s feet and said desperately, “Cheyenne, since you’ve already helped me once, please do me another favor! I really can’t leave DC!
“Think about it. I grew up in DC, and all my family and friends are here. Everything I’m familiar with is here, and I’ll have nothing if I get kicked out of DC. How can I possibly survive like this?
“Cheyenne, you should understand the pain of leaving your family and home. Can you really bear to treat me like this?”
Regina’s face was covered in tears as she begged Cheyenne.
Lucas watched on coldly.
He knew that this woman wouldn’t be satisfied after begging Cheyenne once.
Cheyenne was just too kind and softhearted, so she couldn’t bear to be merciless.
But Cheyenne would soon see how ungrateful and greedy humans could be.
Seeing Regina still pestering Cheyenne, Rayson immediately felt like losing his temper. But after being stopped by a glance from Lucas, he realized what Lucas was thinking and stopped in his tracks.
At this moment, Cheyenne was at a loss for what to do.
When Rayson’s order to chop them up and feed them to dogs came out, Regina had burst into tears and begged for mercy. Cheyenne couldn’t bear for them to be killed, so she had pleaded on their behalf.
But Regina refused to leave DC as per Lucas’s instruction, and she pleaded with Cheyenne again in hopes that she could stay in DC.
“This…” Cheyenne glanced at Lucas, wanting to see what his intentions were. But he didn’t say anything and seemed to have left the decision to her.
“Cheyenne, please help me out once more! If you don’t, I’ll have to stay in another city for the rest of my life! My parents are getting older now. If I can’t take care of them or even know how they’re doing and whether they’re healthy or not…
“Cheyenne, please ask your husband to let us stay in DC! I promise I will definitely change my ways in the future and not cause any trouble again!”
Hearing Regina’s plea and her mention of her parents, Cheyenne couldn’t help thinking about her father, William. She felt extremely conflicted.
“Honey, why don’t… we let her stay in DC?” Cheyenne said embarra.s.sedly as she looked at Lucas expectantly.
Lucas smiled. “Alright, you call the shots.”
But Lucas saw the cold gaze in Regina’s eyes, so he signaled with his eyes to Rayson.
