Meanwhile, back in the states, Lucas was inside his car, driving at the highest speed. He was inside his Porsche, going in the direction of his parental house.

Bluetooth power plugged in his ears and when the phone rang, he touched it slightly to answer. “What is there?” 

“As expected, Miss. Jennifer was there on the island but… She escaped with Johnson’s heir! It was unexpected for her to cooperate with them but we are sorry sir, we failed to catch them.” 

Lucas’s grip on the steering tightened. The information was deep, cutting his heart which made his eyes turn colder.

His emotions were a total mess, due to the kidnapping of his fiance! He didn’t know where she was until he found her location via her friend. She just described him a little but he immediately asked his people to go and investigate the island of the Johnsons family. 

Since the family holds many islands with themselves, it was difficult to know which one did Hannah described as.

Luckily he found one, the young heir of the Johnson family owns an island, which is quite distant. He just sent his army there to check once, and if there was something, he’s surely going to go himself and bring Jennifer back. 

But things weren’t going according to how he had planned and he ordered his team to attack them at once. How can merely two people escape his danger? 

“Are you sure that they have scaped and not there anymore?” he asked once again to confirm what he has heard.

“Yes! They flew in their private helicopter, in front of our eyes. Javier Johnson has even killed a few of our men who were following him constantly. They escaped…unharmed…” 

Lucas’s brain stopped working for a few seconds. All that reflected was his anger on his defined face which was now turning red. The eyes of his face were prompting out and he increased the speed of his car to the maximum speed. 

“GET YOUR ASS HERE THEN!” he instantly hung up. Jennifer’s escape was a great blow already and now she is not there with him anymore, his family is getting worried.

After all, she is going to be Mrs. Smith soon and the people have already started talking about the kidnapping that happened under his nose.

He was in the direction to go back to his home to meet his mother, and grandfather who had called him because of the mess that he created long back and was still running into.

He was ready to reach very soon but before that his phone rang once again and while looking at the dialer, he picked it up. “Speak.” 

“Lucas… that’s me. Olivia.” She spoke in a worried tone after hearing the hardy and rude voice of Lucas.

But he wasn’t interested in having any kind of conversation with her, especially when he has more problems to face and the bad news that has been delivered to him recently. “Olivia, if there is no important work then don’t even utter something.” 

“I… I called you because there was an important meeting scheduled at six in the evening. Will you be available? the other party is asking..” on the other hand, Olivia was sitting in her cabin when she asked Lucas with utmost professionalism.

In front of her was the screen where his entire schedule was present. “No, I won’t. I’m visiting my family, for now, to shut their mouth with the questions that they have been raising for so long already…”

Olivia’s eyes sparkled after she heard this. It was no less secret from her that Lucas has some moderate relationships with his family. He respects their wishes and orders, yet they can’t force him much except his own grandfather from whom he fears his wits as well.

“Oh.. Alright. But be safe okay? And… is there something that is going on in your mind? You.. are stressed, right?” She made a mild guess, having no clue what suddenly caused this mood.

She just saw him early in the morning when he was behaving normally until he left when there was a lunch break for her. 

Lucas massaged his temples and his head. God.. he doesn’t know how to even handle this lady’s question. “Jennifer was found. But unfortunately, she was kidnapped once again and escaped with the kidnapper.”

While he was getting tensed and anxiousness filled in his heart, on the other hand, Olivia’s heart glittered with flowers! Her happiness can’t be expressed in words after she heard that Jennifer wasn’t returning anytime soon.

“So.. what are you supposed to do now?” Olivia asked with a lot of cautiousness and patiently waited for Lucas to reveal something but unfortunately, luck wasn’t in her favor, “I’m driving for now and I have almost reached up the home. Clear the meetings for once and handle the situation.”

TU! TU! TU!

The peep was heard after his words when Olivia looked at her phone and couldn’t help but sigh. ‘He didn’t reveal anything related to his future plans. How the hell am I supposed to make him speak these things?’

….

At the same time, Lucas entered the campus of his house which was no less than any modern villa with a vintage look.

There was a large mansion, with marble work done on the walls. Wooden and glass combined and attached, it excludes the hardwork that is used by the family to build their family home.

Lucas removed his Bluetooth from his ears and stepped out of his car to walk and enter the house. When he stepped inside, he was greeted by the butler who bowed him slightly.

“Welcome back Young Master Smith. Would you like to have lunch?” The butler was polite in his tone and Lucas just shook his head to look around the entire mansion “Where are others?” 

“The elder Master is currently in his study, waiting for your arrival for so long, and Madam…” the butler wasn’t able to fish when both of them heard the voice from behind.

“Oh, you remembered that you have a family to answer, now?”
