When Lucas received the call, his expression instantly turned icy. He looked at Desmond and spoke in a stern tone, "Have Maria locate Aveline's current position immediately, and gather the team." Desmond hesitated slightly. "But Mr. Tudor, the shareholders' meeting is about to start. If you don't attend now..."

"Go, now!" Lucas's urgency was unmistakable.

He was already standing outside the Tudor Group building. Without another word, he turned and got into his car, driving off in a specific direction.

The overpowering stench made them both realize they might not survive.

Just when they were losing all hope, the sound of police sirens drew near. Their eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope!

But the kidnapper, driven mad by desperation, set the factory ablaze.
