The Tudor Group, being such a prominent entity, had attracted a lot of people wanting to take advantage of this chaos. If even Gernard was closely monitoring the Tudor Group's current situation, others could too. It was evident to those who paid attention that Annie was the key to this entire incident.
As long as she made a public clarification, the Tudor Group could once again emerge from the crisis.
Therefore, keeping control over Annie would mean trapping the Tudor Group in this whirlpool of public opinion, making it hard for them to extricate themselves.

Lucas replied, "Don't worry. I'll have people continue searching. Whoever took Annie wants to see the Tudor Group suffer, so for now, she shouldn't be in any immediate danger." Aveline nodded, still trusting in Lucas' abilities.
Lucas added in a serious tone, "Be careful lately. Don't go out unnecessarily and stick to going only between two fixed locations. Baron and Braden will be protecting you. If you notice anything unusual, call them immediately- they'll be there in no time." "Alright, I understand," Aveline agreed.
It seemed Lucas shared her thoughts; this situation wasn't just aimed at him.
After hanging up, Aveline was overwhelmed by a whirlwind of emotions. She felt frustrated and uneasy, mostly because she still had no clue who was pulling the strings or why. It was like fighting an invisible enemy - they were out in the open while their opponent lurked in the shadows. The whole situation left her feeling powerless and on edge.
She drove straight hand informed Maria that she wouldn't be going to the office for a while. Maria showed no reaction and agreed without any questions. This left Aveline feeling puzzled.
Even if Maria knew she might resign, her response seemed somewhat off.
Normally, if she suddenly decided to take a break without specifying a return date, wouldn't her boss at least ask for a reason? But Maria didn't ask anything.
Sitting on the sofa, Aveline held her phone, feeling lost.
Lucas sat in the car as Desmond turned around and said, "Mr. Tudor, Mrs. Skyler has agreed to meet with you." Lucas responded, "You go and meet her." Desmond paused, surprised. "But, Mrs. Skyler wants to see you..." Lucas replied calmly, "Now that Annie isn't even in Yvonne's hands anymore, why should I meet her?" Desmond hesitated before asking, "And Mrs. Skyler's younger son...?" Lucas said, "Proceed with the negotiation as planned. Perhaps Yvonne knows who took Annie." "Understood." Desmond agreed and left.

Desmond entered and saw Trisha looking over. Her brows furrowedh upon seeing him: "Where's Lucas? Wasn't he supposed to chimself?"
Desmond put on a professional smile and said, "Apologies, Mrs. Skyter. I'm sure you've heard about the recent En events at the Tudor Group. Mr. Tudor is extremely busy right now, so he sentin his place. Whatever Mr. Tudor knows, I am aware of too." Trisha eyed him suspiciously but still asked, "Do you truly know where my son is?" Desmond gave a slight nod. "That depends on whether Mrs. Skyler is willing to cooperate." Trisha's voice turned cold. "What exactly do you want?"
Desmond replied, "Madam Yvonne hasn't visited Mr. Tudor in quite stime. Mr. Tudor misses her dearly, ΝΩ but haven't been able to reach her.
Could you kindly pass along the message?"
