The team stood before the door, and the bodyguard knocked.
They were ready to attack. If the person inside did not open the door, they would forcefully enter.
On the second knock, the door opened from the inside.
Lucas looked at the people outside, and doubts flashed in his eyes. However, the people outside pushed Lucas hard before he could speak.
Lucas took two steps back and looked at the uninvited guests. “Who are you? What are you doing?”
“Police. Looking for someone.” The policemen showed their identification badges and let him see them clearly.
After entering the room, they started looking for Anne everywhere, ignoring Lucas.
Any hiding places in the room were checked, but they could not find Anne.
A bodyguard opened the wardrobe, only to find a change of clothes and pajamas inside, and no one was hiding.
Let alone seeing Anne, there was nothing suspicious there.
The bodyguard walked up to Lucas with a cold face. “Where’s Mrs. Marwood?”
“You’re looking for Anne until here?” Lucas thought it was ridiculous.
“Anne is missing, and you’re being sneaky. We have reason to suspect that you took her away,” the bodyguard said bluntly.
“I’m being sneaky?” Lucas snorted. “Then did you find her with me?”
“We’ll find her, and it’s just a matter of time. If you have something to do with this, you better give her to us. It’s better for everyone.”
Who did not know what happened to Pinnacle Academy?
Such a prestigious academy ended up with nothing because he offended he should not have offended. Why was he still so obsessed?
“This has nothing to do with me,” Lucas said calmly.
“Then please answer why your parents took the plane while you were on the cruise. Why are you disguising yourself too?” The police interrogated him.
“I just don’t want to attract attention. What’s the problem? After all, everyone knows that Pinnacle Academy is gone, and I’m afraid someone will cause trouble,” Lucas said as a matter of factly, making them speechless. “But I’d like to know what happened to Anne. Did she disappear? To be honest, it’s nothing new. She used to be forced so badly that she disappeared frequently.” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Steady and menacing footsteps came from a distance. “Who forced her?”
The bodyguards and the police automatically made way for him.
Everyone only saw the black shadow flashing past quickly. When they realized what was happening, a violent punch had already landed on Lucas’s face.
“Ugh!” Lucas grunted, leaned to the side, and fell to the ground as blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
It was apparent how powerful Anthony’s punch was.
Anthony’s long leg swept by and slammed into Lucas’s stomach.
Thud!
The veins in Lucas’s neck throbbed with pain.
Anthony looked at Lucas from above like a devil. “You don’t seem to care about your own life?”
Lucas steadied his breathing and got up with great effort. “You said I took Anne away, but what evidence do you have?”
Anthony ordered his men, “Search for her!”
The bodyguards and police left, leaving only one bodyguard in the room standing by.
“If I find her, I’ll throw you into the sea to feed the fish!” Anthony’s black eyes were dark and cold.
No one would doubt what he said.
His vicious and cruel methods were well known to everyone!
Lucas pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose. He was in pain, but there was no fear on his face as he said, “If you find Anne on the cruise ship, you don’t have to do anything, and I’ll jump into the sea by myself.”
Anthony’s obsidian eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze was so cold it made one’s hair stand on end.
