It seemed that William might be in danger since Jace had caught him.

On Charlotte’s side, Karen had already gone to Charlotte’s office, and who knew what she would do to her.

Relatively speaking, the only person still safe now was Cheyenne.

With the protection of a powerhouse like Stanley, who had retired from the Falcon Regiment, Cheyenne would most likely be safe unless her assailants were top-level experts.

But Lucas was still worried and ill at ease.

Facing the threat of the ruthless lunatic Jace, Lucas really couldn’t continue staying at home anymore. But Amelia was the only one at home now, and his daughter was also one of Lucas’s most cherished people. There was no way he would let Amelia fall into Jace’s hands!

After pondering for a long while, Lucas immediately thought of the Hales in Orange County.

Bruce had already completely submitted to Lucas, who could tell how loyal the Hales were after the previous incidents.

Moreover, the Hales had previously asked Lucas to help them train a group of experts, and they had been staying at the Hale residence, which was a relatively safe place.

But Amelia didn’t know any of the Hales, so it was impossible to leave her with them.

At the thought of this, Lucas immediately picked up his phone again and called Grace.

“Grace, can you please do me a favor and help me look after Amelia for a while?” Since he was pressed for time, he asked her directly without being overly polite.

Amelia adored Grace, who had helped take care of her for a few days when William was hospitalized after the car accident. Lucas trusted her, so he subconsciously thought of Grace at this moment.

Grace agreed without hesitating. “Of course I can! Should I go pick up Amelia at your house now?”

Lucas said, “No, I plan to take Amelia to the Hale residence. You guys will stay there for the time being, and I’ll go pick you up later!”

While speaking, he was already carrying Amelia out the door.

Amelia was extremely well-behaved and sensible. Ever since Lucas received the call from Jace, she could tell that there was something wrong. So she had been listening to him obediently without talking or throwing a tantrum.

After hearing Lucas say that he was going to take her to Grace, she nodded obediently without any objections.

On the way to the Hales’, Lucas’s phone would ring from time to time, but almost all the calls were from Jace. Lucas didn’t want to answer any of them and listen to Jace.

Soon after Lucas left his villa, Skylar called. She said in a flustered voice, “I’m sorry, Lucas! I just went to Miss Carter’s office, but she’s gone! I searched around the company, but I couldn’t find her anywhere! Her phone has also been turned off, and I can’t reach her!”

“Search the place! Deploy some manpower to search for her and check all the surveillance camera footage. You must find her!” Lucas ordered furiously, his heart trembling.

“Yes! Lucas, I’ll make arrangements immediately!” Skylar hung up anxiously.

Lucas slammed his fist on the steering wheel.

When he heard that Karen was in Charlotte’s office, Lucas had an ominous hunch that Karen would very likely harm Charlotte. Just as he expected, Charlotte was missing!

Lucas felt extremely furious.

Since he came back to Orange County more than half a year ago, he had rarely lost control of his emotions like he did now.

He was extremely skilled in martial arts, and he was practically unmatched. He wasn’t afraid of his enemies targeting him, but he was afraid that his loved ones would be harmed!

Thus, since the Carter sisters and Amelia had encountered accidents one after another, Lucas had arranged for his subordinates to protect his loved ones secretly.

But there could never be perfect protection, and the experts he sent couldn’t possibly protect them round the clock.

So now, William had been captured by Jace and beaten up by Jace’s men. Who knew how wounded he was.

And now, Charlotte was nowhere to be found. Although Lucas didn’t know what happened to her, she was probably in Jace’s hands too.

Lucas now only hoped that Jace still had a trace of humanity in him and would spare the lives of William and Charlotte since Lucas was his main target!

Otherwise, Lucas really didn’t know what would happen to him!

In an old hospital in Orange County that had been abandoned for many years…

There was a chair in one of the decently clean rooms.

A young figure was sitting on the chair majestically.

Around him were five burly men, all of whom were extremely muscular and obviously martial artists.

There was a middle-aged man lying on the floor in front of him, his face swollen and battered with bruises.

There was a foot on the middle-aged man’s head, which was facing toward the young man.

If Lucas was here, he would definitely be able to recognize at a glance that the young man sitting on the chair was none other than his half-brother, Jace!

The middle-aged man lying on the floor, who had been beaten beyond recognition, was William, Lucas’s father-in-law!

“Damn it! How dare he ignore my calls?!”

Jace had called Lucas several times in a row, but Lucas refused to answer. He was so furious that he stood up and kicked William several times.

“Damn it, do you think your son-in-law cares about you? Psht! He doesn’t care about you at all. He clearly knows that you’re in my hands and being beaten by me, but he refuses to answer my calls!”

William had been beaten up so badly that his eyes were swollen shut.

He struggled to open an eye that was so swollen that his vision was hindered and sneered contemptuously.

Jace was about to lose his temper, but at this moment, his phone rang, and a fawning female voice came from the other end. “Mr. Hutton, I’ve already brought that woman from the Stardust Corporation to the place you mentioned! What should I do next?”

Jace’s face finally showed a trace of joy. He finally got his hands on one of the two women he wanted to capture!

“Wait for me there. Keep a close eye on her and make sure she doesn’t escape. Got it? I’ll call you to let you know what to do later!” Jace ordered with satisfaction.

“Yes, Mr. Hutton. Although I’m the mother of this woman, I’ll definitely keep an eye on her and won’t let her escape! Don’t worry!”

The nauseatingly coquettish voice belonged to Karen!

Karen was Charlotte’s mother, but she actually obeyed Jace to kidnap her daughter. She was clearly vicious and heartless!
