Chapter 342
“Ave, I’m really at the end of my rope. Can you help me?”
As soon as the call connected, Zane’s weathered, trembling voice game through. The middle–aged man sounded utterly helpless.
Aveline was taken aback and quickly asked, “Mr. Zane, what’s wrong? Tell me slowly.
Zane said, “I’m in Cloudflare City. It’s hard to explain over the phone. Where are you? Can I come to see you?”
Aveline agreed. “Alright.”
She asked Zane for his current location, then hung up and quickly started getting ready.
Lucas, sitting on the bed, watched her with his intense eyes. “What’s the matter?”
“It’s none of your business,” Aveline replied.
Lucas‘ face darkened. He was her husband! She was facing an issue, so how could she show him such an attitude?
Aveline, however, had no time to worry about his feelings. Grabbing her keys, she pulled him along and headed out the door. “I’m leaving.”
Locking the door behind her, she ignored Lucas completely.
Standing in the hallway, Lucas‘ expression grew even more unpleasant.
She had kicked him out without even letting him wash up.
He took out his phone and called Brian. “Follow her and find out what’s going on.”
Brian replied, “Yes.”
Zane was staying in a very cheap motel. When He saw Aveline, he was overwhelmed with emotion. Ave, you’re the only one who can help me now!
Aveline tried to calm him down. “Mr. Zane, don’t worry. Tell me slowly.”
Sitting on the bed, Zane sighed heavily and said, “It’s about my son, Bobby. He works as a driver for a wealthy family. Just a few days ago, I received photos of him beaten and covered in blood. I Immediately called them, but they claimed Bobby stole something very valuable and they were going to press charges to send him to jail!”
He took out his phone and showed Aveline the photos. “Ave, Bobby isn’t like that. He’s honest and decent. There’s no way he would steal from his employer. This has to be some kind of misunderstanding.
“But when I went to their place, they wouldn’t let me in or see Bobby. I even considered calling the police, but I’m afraid. They have evidence against him, and if I report it, Bobby’s life will be ruined!”
