Chapter 392
Selena’s struggles gradually weakened as despair began to creep into her heart. The next moment, she felt a tight grip on her arm, and she was pulled into an embrace that carried a hint of coldness.
“We’ll keep you tied up for now. Even if we untie you, nothing good would come out of your mouth,” came a lazy male voice from above.
Aaron held her and placed her into another car. He carefully untied the ropes around her wrists while dialing Lucas‘ number.
“Lucas, I’ve found her. Yes, I also caught those men. I’ll have someone send them over to you for questioning.”
“Got it,” came Lucas‘ cold and indifferent voice over the phone.
Selena, though still groggy, paused for a moment upon hearing this. Lucas wasn’t the one who ordered her abduction?
Then why did those bodyguards say it was on Lucas‘ orders?
Rip…
Just then, the tape over her mouth was suddenly torn off, the pain jolting her awake.
She sucked in a sharp breath, her face pale from the pain.
Aaron looked at her and chuckled lightly. “Does it hurt that much?”
Selena
Still blindfolded, snapped, “Why don’t you try it yourself and
see how much it hurts?”
Aaron smirked. “Forget it. Maybe I should tape your mouth back up.” Selena quickly dodged.
With her hands now free, she hurriedl

She saw Aaron sitting across from her in the spacious luxury car, its interior fully equipped with everything one could need. The seats were so comfortable she almost wanted to roll around on them.
She squinted her eyes, let out a deep breath, and asked, “Wasn’t it Lucas who had me abducted?”
Aaron replied, “Why would Lucas want to kidnap you, just to get scolded?”
Selena pouted and said, “He’s done similar things before, like kidnapping me to threaten Ave.”
Aaron was surprised, “He’s done that before?”
Selena replied, “You didn’t know?”
Aaron leaned back lazily. “I really didn’t. If I had known, I would have stopped him.”
He would definitely have prevented it. He knew Lucas didn’t want to divorce Aveline, and such a method was the worst possible approach.
Sigh…
Selena rubbed her wrists, pursed her lips slightly, and then looked at him, “Can I borrow your phone?”
Aaron asked, “Why?”
Selena said, “To call Ave. I told her earlier that it was Lucas who had me kidnapped. She’s probably really worried right now.”
Upon hearing this, Aaron narrowed his eyes.
He smirked sarcastically and said, “You’ve already fallen into the trap. If I hadn’t found you, what do you think would have happened next?”

Selena looked at him in confusion. What are you talking about?”
Aaron replied, “You wouldn’t understand even if I told you
Selena was speechless.
This man was still as infuriating as ever!
She remained silent for a moment, then her brows furrowed as the effects of the drug started to kick in again.
A blush spread across her cheeks, and her eyes became hazy as she looked at him and said, ‘Aaron, take me to the hospital.”
Aaron observed her for a while in silence, then dialed a number and asked, “How do you counteract the effects of a drug?”
The person on the other end said, “Get her to the hospital before the effects fully set in. If they do, you’ll need to either put her in cold water or, well, go with it.”
Aaron frowned. “If the effects have already kicked in, is it too late to take her to the hospital?”
He cursed under his breath and hung up.
By this point, Selena’s consciousness was already slipping away.
