Chapter 1751: Chapter 1754 Blocked by Someone
That day, Lily, Mr. Lucas, and Emily Taylor took a private jet back to B City, along with Ben, Abbie, Lulu, and Charles Taylor.
Just driving out of the VIP parking lot at the airport, Lily suddenly saw a familiar figure by the corridor of the airport building.
“Wait a minute…” she called to the driver, her eyes fixed outside the car window.
There were many pedestrians outside, and that bright figure seemed to flicker and then disappear.
“What’s wrong?” Mr. Lucas pulled her close, asking with concern.
Lily shook her head, “Maybe I was seeing things… I just thought I saw Skye.”
Ever since Skye Brown and Roger Chamberlain went missing together, Lily had sent people everywhere to look for them.
Europe, A City, and even inquired with the Chamberlain family, but all to no avail.
Aidan Lucas knew what was on her mind and comforted her, “Don’t worry, Skye has Roger watching over her, she won’t be in trouble. There must be more to it. Once we’re done for the next two days, I’ll go to the Chamberlain family for you.”
The influence of the Reddington family in Eastonia was obviously not comparable to the Lucas family.
It would definitely be more effective if Mr. Lucas personally asked Mr. Chamberlain, rather than having Lily send someone to search.
“Forget it, I’ll just send someone to investigate myself, you better not go. Frank Chamberlain and you are at odds, if you go, I fear the Chamberlain family will…”
“Don’t worry. Frank is Frank, and the Chamberlain family is the Chamberlain family. Their internal relations aren’t as harmonious as the outside world thinks; as far as I know, Frank has always had opinions about his father’s favoritism towards the youngest son.”
“Alright then. But don’t push yourself too hard, take care of your safety.”
Mr. Lucas smiled and pulled Lily into his arms, lightly pecking at her lips, chuckling lowly, “Yes, my dear wife.”
During this period, the little ones had been clinging tightly to Lily, so now with the rare chance for them two to sit alone in a car, Mr. Lucas was naturally eager to hold and kiss Lily closely.
Throughout the journey, the sounds coming from the back seat caused Sebastian Lucas VII and the driver, Benjamin Lucas IX, to sweat on their foreheads.
Until they were almost at the Manor, when suddenly a figure darted out outside the car, startling Benjamin into slamming the brakes with a ‘screech—’.
Mr. Lucas, with sharp senses, held Lily tightly.
“Are you okay? Did you hit anything?” His deep voice carried a cold sternness.
“I’m fine, didn’t hit anything…”
Aidan Lucas’s face, dark as it was, finally softened.
But within the depths of his gaze, there was still anger.
He turned his displeasure towards Benjamin.
Feeling the chill from behind, Benjamin quickly explained, “Mr. Lucas, it’s not my fault. It was a beggar who suddenly darted out in front.”
Upon hearing Benjamin’s words, both Lily and Aidan Lucas looked forward.
What they saw was a pitiful man in ragged clothes, disheveled hair, with his appearance almost indistinguishable, pitifully lying in front of their car.
The man’s hair was somewhat graying, and the exposed hands were black and wrinkled.
Lily felt compassion, in such cold weather, the man dressed so lightly, probably fell ill before collapsing onto the driveway.
“Why don’t we go down and take a look, call him an ambulance?”
As soon as Sebastian heard the Young Lady’s words and was about to get out of the car, he was stopped by Mr. Lucas.
“Lock the doors, notify the car behind us, no one is allowed to get out or stop.” Mr. Lucas’s icy eyes were fixed on the man.
“Benjamin, go around him directly. Make sure the dashcam is on, if he tries to scam us, just drive straight through.”
The woes of heaven can be forgiven, but self-inflicted troubles cannot be lived through.
Aidan Lucas didn’t know what this person intended by appearing there at this time.
But he would definitely not soften his stance due to the man’s pitiful appearance.
