Chapter 1755: Chapter 1758: Theodore Lucas Avenges Tara Hammond
“Ah—”
A scream, neither light nor heavy, came from the grove.
Tara Hammond sensitively looked towards the grove, “Ross, did you hear something? I think I just heard someone shouting, it sounded a bit like Evelyn…”
Evelyn’s car is right here, but she’s nowhere to be seen. Suddenly hearing what seemed to be their daughter’s scream, Tara’s heart tightened.
“Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to look now.” Robbie Bright temporarily released Tara and turned to take out his cell phone to call his subordinates.
Tara stood by the car, staring at the dark grove.
Suddenly, under a big tree, she saw a strange reflective point.
A diamond-shaped reflective point, which would gleam like a zircon under the car lights from beneath the tree.
Tara squinted slightly as she looked at that spot.
She remembered that Evelyn Lucas pinned a diamond-shaped brooch on her overcoat when she left home this morning.
“Is that… Ross, come quickly and look…” Tara subconsciously called the man behind her.
But Robbie Bright was busy on the phone, deploying personnel.
When he saw his daughter’s car, he had already suspected that his daughter had been kidnapped.
He didn’t dare to tell Tara, fearing she’d worry, so he walked a bit farther to make the call and didn’t hear Tara calling him.
Tara was worried about Evelyn Lucas; it wasn’t far from where they parked, just across the road.
She thought she could go there by herself, see if she found anything, and call Robbie Bright if need be.
One has to admit, Tara had been having a smooth time recently.
Knowing this was the Rich District, usually with few idle people able to enter, she neglected that Theodore Lucas once lived here as the Master.
Even when down and out, he knew the paths to get around.
“Evelyn, Evelyn, are you there?” Tara walked across the road, slowly approaching the grove.
She now suspected that Evelyn Lucas had been dragged into the grove by someone, and that brooch might have been dropped under the tree by her.
Indeed, as Tara approached, she saw Evelyn Lucas’s brooch right under the tree.
She was about to pick it up when suddenly a cold flash appeared before her.
“Ah—”
“Mom—”
The piercing screams of Tara and Evelyn Lucas simultaneously came from the grove.
Robbie Bright, still on the phone by the car, immediately sensed something was wrong.
“Quick, go into the villa and call for help!” Having mixed in the underworld for years, Robbie Bright was incredibly bold and daring.
After instructing the driver to go inside and call for help, he grabbed the self-defense items commonly placed in the car and quickly ran across the road to the grove opposite.
“Mom, mom, how are you, are you okay…”
The daughter’s shrill cry and his most beloved woman’s heart-wrenching wails drew Robbie Bright over.
When he arrived at the scene, it was so dark that he could only see a faint silhouette under the thin moonlight.
“Tara, Tara, how are you?” Robbie Bright saw Tara, who was rolling on the ground holding her head, and immediately went up to hold her.
She was the woman he had longed for a lifetime, the woman he cherished in his heart; he couldn’t see her get hurt.
“Pain, Ross… I hurt, it hurts so much…” Tara suffered some unknown injury, and in the darkness, it wasn’t clear.
Robbie Bright felt his palm was full of sticky, viscous liquid.
“Dad… it was Theodore Lucas, Theodore came for revenge!” Evelyn Lucas was petrified, and seeing Robbie Bright, she lunged at him, wanting his embrace as well.
“Theodore Lucas? Where is he?!”
“Ran… ran away… he had a knife and stabbed mom, then ran off…” Evelyn Lucas, her legs weak, collapsed beside Robbie Bright.
She also had three or four wounds on her body, and if she hadn’t held on with sheer will, she might have fainted from the pain long ago.
