Chapter 1521

Ben grabbed his keys and headed for the door. His assistant immediately called out, "Mr. Lucas, where are you headed? Should I adjust your schedule?" "No need. Cancel all my afternoon appointments." Ben left these words behind as he strode out toward the parking lot.

Sitting in his car, he couldn't help but berate himself. "What am I doing? Chasing after her again, just because of one vague comment."

After hesitating for a moment, he still decided to go check it out.

Meanwhile, two men with hardened expressions were watching him closely in a black car nearby. One of them nudged his partner. ""Hey, isn't that him?"

The other man, who had been typing a message on his phone, looked up sharply. His eyes narrowed as he saw Ben step into his luxury car.

"That's him. It's because of his defense that my son got such a harsh sentence. Even if he turned to ash, I'd recognize him."

"He's heading out alone. Isn't this the perfect chance?"

The two exchanged a look of agreement. The driver started tailing Ben's car, while the man in the passenger seat made a call, seemingly summoning reinforcements.

Ben followed his GPS to a small, tucked-away cafe, finally arriving after a few wrong turns. Once inside, his eyes scanned the place, but there was no sign of Jamie. His lips pressed into a thin line, and his brow furrowed. "Was she messing with me again?" he muttered.
