Chapter 346
After buying groceries, Aveline returned home. She kept checking for a reply from Lucas, but her
message
seemed to have vanished into the vold–hot a notification from him
What was going on?
He had seemed normal in the morning, but now it was as if he had become a different person.
What had gone wrong?
Aveline couldn’t figure it out.
It was already afternoon. As she watched the sun slowly set, her heart sank with it. She didn’t understand the Tudors‘ intentions. They had captured Bobby, tortured him, and threatened to send him to jail, yet they sent those photos to Zane.
Aveline wondered who the mastermind was. Was it Yvonne or Frederick?
What were they trying to achieve, and why did they target a mere driver?
While she was lost in thought, her phone rang again.
She quickly picked it up, hoping it was Lucas, but it turned out to be Zane.
“Hello, Mr. Zane. What’s the matter?” Aveline answered.
Zane’s voice was anxious. “Ave, those people came to find me. They told me to leave Cloudflare City and even gave me money to stop worrying about Bobby. How can I do that? Bobby is my only son. I refused their money, so they are trying to force me out of the city. I have nowhere to stay now.”
Aveline stood up abruptly, shocked by the severity of the situation. The Tudors intended to silence Zane with money, all to keep Bobby confined!
“What could Bobby have done to deserve such harsh treatment?” Aveline wondered.
She asked, “Mr. Zane, where are you now?*
Zane replied, “I’m on the main road. The inn kicked me out.”
“Send me your location. I’ll come and find you,” Aveline said.
“Alright,” Zane agreed.
After hanging up, Aveline looked at the location he sent and then quickly left to find him.
Just as she reached downstairs, her phone rang again.
This tim
This time, it was from Lucas.
She exhaled deeply before answering, “Lucas, are you coming over for dinner tonight?”
Lucas‘ deep, magnetic voice came through the line. “Aveline, is this how you ask for a favor?”
Aveline bit her lip. “Where are you? I want to see you.”

Her voice was soft, her demeanor no longer cold.
Lucas found it ironic. She was willing to humble herself for someone else. He coldly replied, “The Tudor Estate. I want to see you now.”
Aveline frowned. “Can it be later? I have something urgent to take care of.”
Lucas‘ tone was frosty. “Half an hour. If I don’t see you by then, don’t bother talking to me.”
He hung up immediately.
Aveline was furious.
