PopularNovelChapter 855 Aveline tilted her head slightly, relying on the sound to guide her. "Leo, is that you?" Leo's surprised voice cut through the silence, "What happened to your eyes?" "The people who heldhere injected something into them," she replied, her voice calm despite the circumstances. "I can't see anything right now." Without hesitation, Leo reached for her wrist, gently holding it. "I'll take you out of here. We need to get you to a hospital for a check-up." Though hesitant at first, Aveline knew she didn't have much of a choice. Staying here was too dangerous-what if the people who had taken her returned? With a reluctant sigh, she followed Leo.
Still, something nagged at her. "Leo, how did you find me?" As they moved cautiously toward the exit, Leo kept his grip on her steady, his voice soft. "I've been working on a nearby construction site. I saw you standing on the balcony one day. I tried to cup and talk to you, but the villa's bodyguards chasedoff. After that, I kept an eye on the place and realized you were being held here. So, I figured out a way to distract them and get you out." Aveline felt uneasy, but with her blindness, she had no choice but to trust him for now. "Thank you." "You savedbefore," Leo replied warmly. "I'm just glad I could repay the favor." "Watch your step," he whispered gently as they reached a staircase.
Aveline carefully descended, Leo guiding her at each step.
Once she was safely inside the car and they were on the road, Aveline's tense body finally began to relax. They finally left-far from that nightmare of a place. Relief washed over her, though a dark thought lingered. Whoever had done this to her, she wouldn't let them off so easily once she found out who it was.

Desmond stepped out and immediately spotted the person exiting the lead car. "Mr. Tudor," he greeted respectfully.
Lucas, however, ignored the formality, his focus entirely on the villa as he stormed inside. After thoroughly searching the premises, he found nothing-Aveline was nowhere to be seen.
Desmond approached him and reported, "Mr. Tudor, there are no surveillance cameras installed inside the villa, and the street cameras seem to have been tampered with as well." It was clear this had all been done intentionally.
Lucas' expression was incredibly dark as he strode over to Gernard's assistant, his voice cold. "Why are you here?" The assistant replied, "Mr. Cooper discovered Miss Young's location and sentto rescue her, but she's already gone." They had arrived almost at the stime, so there was no way anyone could have pulled off any tricks under Lucas' nose. Could someone have gotten here even faster? Did Russell manage to move Aveline? It seemed unlikely. Could he have really kept up negotiations with Lyon while also moving Aveline? Impossible.
"Bang!" Lucas furiously kicked a chair over, his face stormy with frustration.
Desmond, after a moment of contemplation, offered, "Mr. Tudor, should we call the police? She's been missing for over 24 hours now. Having the authorities involved might speed up the search "Yes," Lucas muttered, his face still dark with weariness.
Desmond immediately contacted the police and explained the entire situation.
Meanwhile, Leo had driven Aveline to a nearby small hospital.

e After examining her eyes, the doctor informed her that her condition could be treated with an injection.
Aveline instinctively placed a hand on her abdomen, concern in her volde as she asked, Will it affect the baby?" "It won't," the doctor assured her, then went to prepare the injection.
Aveline breathed a sigh of relief.
Leo stood nearby, his gaze falling on her belly, his expression turning more complicated by the second.
It wasn't long before the doctor V
returned with the necessary treatment. Aveline lay down on the hospital bed, and the injection was administered. X
