Divorced 125
Chapter 125
Aaron jumped back in surprise, quickly pulling his hand away.
Whoa, what’s with that expression? Are you looking to sign with my company too?”
Lucas glared at the two on stage for a long moment before shifting his gaze to the front–row seats. “Brian.”
Brian immediately stepped forward. “Yes, Mr. Tudor.”
Lucas said coldly, “Take Selena to the private room.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
With that, he turned and headed toward the staircase.
Brian nodded and walked toward the front–row seats.
Aaron was stunned. “Wait, what’s going on? Who’s Selena? Why are you grabbing her? Lucas, don’t just walk away, answer me.”
Selena was clapping enthusiastically, her voice hoarse from cheering, her face glowing with excitement. This was incredible! The chemistry between Russell and Aveline on the dance floor was electric. She was all in on this pairing!
Just then, a young man with a serious expression approached her. Miss Quin, Miss Young is waiting for you backstage.”
Selena blinked. “Why did she go backstage?”
The young man shook his head. “I don’t know.”
Selena stood up. “Alright, let’s go!”
Brian led her upstairs. As they ascended, the noise from below gradually faded, and they found themselves in a corridor lined with private rooms.
Selena paused, her eyes narrowing with suspicion. “This doesn’t look like the backstage area.”
She turned to leave, but Brian grabbed her arm, opened a private room door, and pulled her inside.
When Aveline returned, she found Selena’s seat empty. She frowned and took out her phone to call her,
Russell approached, having taken off his jacket after the dance, now wearing a black tank top that showcased his defined arm muscles.
Selena didn’t answer the phone.
Aveline’s frown deepened. Did Selena go to the restroom and not hear her phone?
Russell noticed her concern and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Aveline replied, “Selena’s missing.”
Russell said, “Come with me to the security room. Let’s check the surveillance footage.”
Aveline looked at him gratefully. “Thank you so much.”
Russell smiled warmly. “No need to thank me. We’re friends now, right?”
“Yes, we are.”
They went to the security room and checked the footage focused on Selena’s location.
When Aveline saw Brian, her expression immediately turned icy. Lucas‘ man had taken Selena!
Was Lucas planning to retaliate against Selena for Sophia’s sake?
No way! She wouldn’t allow that to happen!
Aveline took out her phone and looked at the number she had blocked. Pressing her lips together, she unblocked it and dialed.
The line was busy for three rings before the call was abruptly cut off.
She called again, and it was cut off again.
On the fifth attempt, the call finally connected.
Aveline silently cursed Lucas but kept her voice as calm as possible. Lucas, did you take Selena? Where is she?”
Lucas‘ deep, magnetic voice responded, “A12,”
Then he hung up.
Aveline closed her eyes, struggling to control her emotions.
Russell asked, “Was it Lucas who took Selena?”
Aveline exhaled deeply and looked at him. “Yes, I know where she is now. I’m going to find her. Thank you for your help, Mr. Skyler. You can go back to what you were doing.”
