Divorced

Chapter 497

The hospital surveillance footage quickly reached Lucas‘ phone. He sat in the car, scrutinizing it carefully. From the moment Aveline entered the room to when Barbara and Sophia left together, he didn’t miss a single detail.

However, there was a missing segment in the footage.

Lucas pressed a button on his Bluetooth earpiece, his voice icy. “Maria, where’s the rest of the footage?”

Maria responded hastily, “I’m looking, I’m looking! Don’t rush me.”

She was sweating profusely, nervous and worried. If she had known that Aveline would get into trouble after leaving in the afternoon, she wouldn’t have let her go.

“Hurry up,” Lucas‘ voice came through the earpiece, extremely cold. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Maria felt a chill run up her spine. She swallowed hard and quickly tapped on the keyboard, hacking into one surveillance system after another around the hospital, searching for Aveline’s figure.

“I found it!” Two minutes later, she exclaimed and immediately sent the video to Lucas‘ phone. The footage, captured by a camera diagonally across from the hospital’s back door, showed Aveline being carried into a car by two men.

The car then sped away.

Maria added, “That car had fake plates. They removed the plates on a road without surveillance. I can’t track it now.”

Lucas didn’t respond and instead dialed the nurse who was with Barbara.

Selena, sitting beside him, watched as Lucas issued one command after another in an orderly manner, his expression very serious.

Only then did she start to believe that Aveline’s trouble this time had nothing to do with him. But it still wasn’t completely unrelated! It was the Tudor family that did this! By extension, it was his doing!

Thinking this way, Selena glared at Lucas angrily

Aaron stepped in front of her, blocking her view, Selena glared at him, “What are you doing?” Aaron lazily replied, “Even if you glare your eyes out, Aveline won’t magically appear in front of you. I suggest you save your energy and not provoke Lucas. Otherwise, he might just throw you out of the car!”

Selena retorted, “He wouldn’t dare!”

If Lucas ever treated her that way, she would take Aveline and vanish, ensuring he could never find them. She wasn’t bluffing–if pushed, she’d do whatever it took!

The call connected, and the nurse’s respectful voice came through, “Mr. Lucas, are your looking for Madam Babara? She just went to sleep.”

Lucas‘ tone was icy, “It seems grandma is sleeping well lately. I have some matters to discuss with her. Wake her up.

The nurse hesitated, “Mr. Lucas, Madam Babara just fell asleep. Isn’t it unwise to disturb her?” Lucas‘ voice grew colder. “Do I need your permission to do anything?”

The nurse became flustered, quickly responding, “No, I didn’t mean that. I’m just worried about Madam Babara’s health.”

Lucas snapped, “I’m her grandson, and I’m not worried. What are you, a servant, worrying about?”

The nurse fell silent in fear, quickly saying, “I’ll wake her up right away.”

Lucas hung up and instructed the driver to return to the Tudor family estate.

Selena frowned and asked, “Aren’t you tracking where Aveline went? Why are you going to the estate?”

Lucas replied, “Shut up!”

Selena bristled with anger and was about to retort, but Aaron intervened, stopping her.

Selena glared at her arm where Aaron had grabbed it and coldly said, “Let go!”
