Chapter 57: Miss Lawrence Threw Herself at Him

Erica, dressed in a white off-the-shoulder V-neck dress, had arrived without being noticed by them.

A brown wide-brimmed fisherman hat adorned her head, and her delicate and beautiful face was adorned with European-style makeup, giving her a stylish and charming appearance.

Her angry expression at this moment destroyed the beauty that was there before, making her look extremely fierce and ugly. When she looked at Cheyenne, there was a hint of jealousy and disdain in her eyes. She had known that Miss Lawrence wasn't simple, but she never expected her to be a vixen.

This was only the second time she had come to the Todd mansion, yet she had made such a cheap move to seduce the young master. Erica's grandfather Layne was also by her side. Looking surprised, he shouted angrily, "Get up quickly! You're so fat and you've offended Master Iker."

Upon hearing that, Cheyenne felt a bit defiant. "Am I fat? I'm over 5 feet 6 inches tall and only weigh around 90-something pounds."

The rest of them were laughing at this comical scene.

Was that the focal point?

Wasn't the real focus Miss Lawrence actively throwing herself at him?

For goodness' sake, their usually woman-averse young master had actually reached out and hugged Miss Lawrence!

They couldn't be mistaken, right? The young master had actually hugged a woman!!!

Iker seemed to realize that things were getting out of hand and quickly withdrew his hand. He stared coldly at Cheyenne and said dangerously, "Miss Lawrence, get up right now!"

'Wow, the tone of this seems like he's been taken advantage of.' Cheyenne pursed her lips and stood up. "You're really heartless to burn bridges like that, Master Iker." Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Listen to her! Miss Lawrence seemed to be scolding the young master for being a heartbreaker!

The people outside the door changed color drastically. The two were making out in the room before?

For a moment, there was a hidden meaning in everyone's gaze as they looked at the two.

Even Layne found it somewhat unbelievable. But then again, Master Iker was much better than Kelvin.

Although Iker had a cold face, once this kind of person fell in love with someone, they would be loyal to them.

It seemed like he would be a good match for Cheyenne.

Erica couldn't stand it anymore and ran over from outside the door in her high heels. She grabbed Cheyenne by the arm and pushed her away.

Then she looked at Iker with concern on her face. "Master Iker, did she... do anything to you?"

This couldn't be blamed on Erica since she saw Cheyenne actively pressing against Iker as soon as she opened the door earlier.

Her face was even shamelessly buried in his chest.

And since Iker was abstinent, Erica instinctively thought that Cheyenne had forced herself onto him.

With Erica's push just now, Cheyenne almost hit the wall next to her but managed to steady herself just in time.

Iker disliked flamboyant beauties like Miss Lawrence. But what he hated even more was someone like Erica, who would climb into her foster father's bed for her own purposes.

So with a cold and disdainful gaze, he looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "Madam Erica, why did you suddenly come to me? Tanner... how can you let her in?"

Tanner walked up with a guilty expression and said, "Master Iker, I'm sorry. I failed to stop Madam Erica."

As she listened to his address towards herself, Erica felt an indescribable pain in her heart as tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably.

She cried pitifully and said, "Iker, you... you used to call me Erica before."

Cheyenne rubbed her wrist while observing the two of them closely.

The relationship between Madam Erica and Iker didn't seem like the typical stepmother-son relationship.

But then again, Erica was only 21 years old this year and had lived with the Todd family for over ten years before marrying Mr. Kai Todd. She was technically Iker's stepsister. All those years of living together inevitably led to deep feelings between them. Someone who had grown up as his sister suddenly becoming his father's wife must have been difficult for Iker to accept.

But when Erica ran over just now, her eyes betrayed jealousy and disgust towards Cheyenne, which made Cheyenne guess that Erica's true love was Master Iker. Then why did Erica marry Kai?

Three years ago, when Erica was eighteen, did she really give herself to Kai willingly? On the same day, Iker had a car accident and became disabled in both legs, a coincidence too great to ignore.

At that time, Iker had a fiancee who came from an equally prestigious family - Nadia Spence.

As the daughter of the president of the country, Nadia was sought after by many as a potential marriage partner for political gain. Unfortunately for Iker, he became disabled and Nadia could not possibly marry someone like him. She secretly broke off their engagement without telling her father until it was too late to do anything about it.

To compensate for this loss suffered by the Todd family, President awarded Iker with an Imperial First Class General medal which brought honor and prestige to their name.

"Madam Erica, please behave yourself," said Iker sternly as he looked at her with disdain in his eyes. "We are no longer siblings."

"Iker... I know you're still angry with me but back then..." Erica tried to explain herself but before she could finish her sentence, Iker grabbed her slender neck tightly.

His eyes turned red like those of a demon released from hellfire. "Shut up! Don't say another word!" He shouted at her furiously.

"Get out!"

"From now on, this woman is not allowed to step foot into my estate!" Iker pushed her away, and the delicate woman fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string. She cried uncontrollably, her voice filled with sorrow and regret.

Tanner quickly came over and helped Erica up from the ground. He comforted her, "Madam Erica, Master Iker doesn't want to see you. You should leave."

"Tanner, I really regret it. I didn't betray Iker..." Erica was choked with tears.

As an onlooker, Cheyenne had been standing by the door listening to their conversation. She had heard some vague information - that Erica used to have a close relationship with Iker but did something that betrayed him which caused their falling out.

It was clear from Erica's eyes that she loved Iker deeply. Cheyenne couldn't help but wonder about those two children - were they really hers and Kai's?

She laughed at herself for thinking too much.

As a prestigious family, the Todd family wouldn't allow a woman with bastards to marry into their family. Also, Kai wasn't easy to fool. Erica's child wouldn't be someone else's.

Erica left, crying and unwilling. The room fell into an unusual silence.
