Chapter 448

Aveline pondered for a moment and said, “I’ll get to the bottom of this. If you’re innocent, I’ll get you out.” Bobby broke down in tears. “Aveline, thank you!”

Aveline felt a pang of discomfort. If Bobby knew that Zane had given up on him for money, how would he react? At the same time, a chill ran through her. If someone had orchestrated all this, what was their motive? Why target a mere driver?

Aveline returned upstairs, feeling somewhat warmer. She glanced towards the villa’s garden and headed in that direction. She couldn’t leave just yet. She needed to find Lucas and get some answers.

The garden was still lively, and Aveline’s sudden appearance stunned everyone. Their gazes quickly turned to shock and disdain. She looked disheveled, her dress dirty, her hair messy, and her face and arms covered in dust, as if she had crawled out of a dirt pit.

A servant saw her and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, “Who let you out? Go back inside!”

Aveline pushed the servant aside, “I am the lady of the Tudor family. How dare you stop me?”

The servant, surprised, stared at her in astonishment. Aveline ignored the stares and walked forward. She spotted Lucas.

“Lucas, what happened to your wife? She looks like she just escaped from a disaster,” Aaron, standing beside Lucas, remarked as he saw Aveline approaching with determination.

Upon hearing this, Lucas looked up and saw Aveline. His brows furrowed as he walked towards her.

“What happened?”

Aveline, suppressing her anger, asked, “Have you investigated Bobby’s situation thoroughly?”

Lucas’s brows knit together. “That matter was resolved. Have you forgotten?”

She hadn’t forgotten!

Back then, she had even bet with him, claiming that if she won, he would release Bobby!

But reality had slapped her hard.

Zane chose money over his own son.

At that time, she had no idea about the inside story. If she had known, she would never have let Zane leave!

Aveline said, “I haven’t forgotten, but Lucas, he was framed. Bobby didn’t steal your brother’s things!”

Lucas’s eyes grew colder. “Where’s the evidence?”

Aveline was at a loss for words. “You…”

She remembered the evidence he had shown. Videos of Bobby stealing and selling the items had been recorded. He had evidence, and she had none! Yet, she inexplicably believed Bobby’s words!

Lucas grabbed her wrist and led her back into the villa, “First, tell me what’s going on. Weren’t you

supposed to leave?”

Aveline suddenly remembered her current predicament.

She asked, “How is Grandma?”

Lucas glanced at her and said, “Grandma is resting.”

Aveline pressed her lips together, about to say something, when she saw the butler approaching with several servants.

“Madam Aveline, please return. Mr. Frederick didn’t permit you to come out,” the butler said with a smile.

Lucas’s expression darkened. “Return? Where to?”

The butler lowered his eyes. “Mr. Lucas, here’s the situation…”
