Chapter 343
Aveline said, “Mr. Zane, please wait here for my call. If I managed to see Bobby, I’d let you know. I’m worried they might not let us both in. If that happened, we’d just be wasting our time.”
Zane hesitated, unsure of what to do.
Aveline gave him a reassuring smile. “Don’t worry, I’ll find a way to help Bobby. Your family took care of me during high school, I owe you that much.”
Zane nodded, “Alright, alright, I’ll do as you say. But be careful.”
“I will,” Aveline promised.
She left the small motel and headed straight for the Tudor Estate. This was her second time going there alone. The first time was when Lucas had just regained his memory, and Barbara had invited her to the estate for dinner. She had witnessed Lucas being kind to Sophia.
Recalling that scene, Aveline felt a twinge of pain within her..
Back then, she was still reeling from the disbelief and sorrow. How could Lu, who had been so gentle and loving just a few days before, change so drastically overnight?
Aveline’s expression grew distant.
She missed Lu.
She missed him desperately.
But Lucas was determined to erase the gentle, loving Lu from the past year in his own way.
She closed her eyes, pushing down the pain. The taxi stopped at the gate of the Tudor Estate. Aveline paid the fare and got out, walking directly to the doorbell.
After a moment, a servant came out. “Madam Aveline, what brings you here?”
“I’m here to find someone,” Aveline replied.
The servant opened the gate and invited her in, asking, “Who are you looking for?”
“A man named Bobby Looney. He works here as a driver. Where is he now?” Aveline inquired.
The servant’s expression changed instantly. “Madam Aveline, I need to ask Madam Yvonne about this. Please wait here.”
With that, she hurriedly went into the villa.
Aveline stopped, not wanting to go any further inside.
She felt a strong aversion to this place.
Yvonne’s ambiguous attitude and Frederick’s obvious dislike made her reluctant to come here.
Meanwhile, in the study on the second floor, Frederick threw a stack of photos in front of Lucas and spoke coldly, “That driver has some nerve, daring to steal your brother’s belongings and sell them for

money! Lucas, I want you to handle this. I want him to suffer!”
Lucas picked up the photos with his fingers and started flipping through them. The images clearly showed Bobby entering Leo’s room, stealing items, and selling them.
His eyes darkened as he looked at the photos.
Frederick continued, “Among these items are many things you gave your brother. He treasured them dearly. He always loved you very much!”
Lucas‘ fingers trembled slightly as he held the photos. Memories of a youthful and handsome face appeared in his mind, full of ambition, talking about future dreams.
And what was he like back then? He only gave Leo cold looks and harsh words, shattering his brother’s dreams.
But Leo never minded. He always smiled at Lucas, his hand resting on his shoulder. “Lu, it’s fine if you’re like this with me. But when you find a girlfriend, you can’t treat her this way. She’d run away if you did.”
