PopularNovelChapter 840 Aaron paused for a moment at Lucas' words.
"Why do you need to find her?" Lucas replied in a low, stern voice, "She better know nothing about this, or else..." Aaron's tone grew serious as well. "Lucas, even if she does know something, you can't lay a hand on her. Regardless of whether Aveline would allow it or not, I certainly won't." Lucas closed his eyes briefly before saying, "Bring her to me." With that, he hung up the phone.
His only hope was that Selena knew where Aveline had gone or what she had done. Otherwise, he truly didn't know what he might do next.
Selena was at work when she got Aaron's call. She tucked her phone between her ear and shoulder, typing away on her keyboard, and asked, "What's up?" Aaron replied, "Cout for a bit. I need to talk to you." Selena, already frustrated by her demanding boss, felt annoyed. If she left during work hours, she would surely get scolded. She replied bluntly, "Whatever you need to say, either say it over the phone or wait until I'm off work. I can't leave right now." Aaron responded, "It's about Aveline. Can you really not cout?" Selena's fingers paused over the keyboard. She grabbed her phone, her tone turning serious. "What do you mean? What happened to Ave?" Aaron explained, "Aveline is missing." "What?!" Selena shot up from her seat, grabbing her bag and heading for the door.
"What happened? When did she go missing?" she asked, rushing out.
Just then, her boss emerged from the office and saw her leaving before the end of her shift. He immediately called out, "Selena, where are you going? It's not the end of the workday yet. Are you planning to leave early? I'm telling you, leaving early means a pay cut!" Selena turned around and snapped, "Cut it! Keep my pay for yourself to choke on it! I quit!" Without waiting to see her boss' face turn sour, she marched into the elevator and left.
Nothing was more important than Aveline! A job was just a job; she could always find another one! Aaron overheard her words and furrowed his brow. "What happened?" Selena quickly brushed off Aaron's question. "None of that matters right now! Just tellhow Aveline went missing!" Aaron replied, "I only found out just now. She deliberately shook off the people Lucas sent to protect her and left in disguise." Selena felt a wave of anxiety wash over her. How could this have happened? Why would Aveline suddenly leave like this? And on her own initiative! She hung up the phone, and as soon as the elevator doors opened, she rushed out Seeing Aaron waiting by the building entrance, she vel.ne immediately asked, "Where's Lucas? Has he sent people to look for her?" Aaron opened the car door. "Get in first; it's cold out here." Selena got into the car and immediately tried calling Aveline. But to her surprise, Lucas answered instead! Selena frowned. "Why do you have Ave's phone? Did you find her?" X
