Chapter 1823: Chapter 1826: Rare Good Deeds (2)
Theodore Lucas was eager to save people, instructing Orlando Lucas to follow the car ahead while calling Aidan Lucas.
At this moment, Theodore couldn’t help feeling glad that he had saved their phone numbers when he wanted to apologize to Aidan Lucas and his mother the other day.
After waiting for a long time, the call finally connected.
“Hello, who is this?” Aidan Lucas’s cool and indifferent voice came through the phone.
Theodore hurriedly spoke, “Ethan Wilson, it’s me, Dad… you…”
Before he could finish his words, the phone emitted a ‘beep beep beep’ sound.
Unexpectedly, Aidan Lucas hung up without even listening.
Theodore Lucas refused to give up and called again.
As soon as he called, it was hung up again. He called again, and it was hung up again.
After calling consecutively three times, when he called again, Aidan Lucas had already blacklisted his number.
Theodore Lucas was so angry his liver hurt; he rarely tried to do good, yet he was misunderstood.
Being a good person sure is difficult!
He held back his anger and called Emily Taylor.
Who knew that Emily Taylor and Aidan Lucas did almost the exact same thing, hanging up the phone upon hearing his voice.
Not even giving him a second or third chance, she hung up and directly blacklisted him.
“These mother and son, even after decades, they’re still like this… Orlando Lucas, keep close, don’t lose them. Let’s just follow them first!”

Meanwhile, Lily was resting with Abbie and Lulu in the Manor on the outskirts of the city.
Cooper I and Cooper II were here to watch over them.
This was the ‘secret base’ of the second persona, even Sebastian Lucas VII and others didn’t know about it, no one else could possibly find it.
Lily reached an agreement with Aidan Lucas to recuperate here until she gave birth to the child.
But now, as Lily was coaxing the two babies for a nap and was about to rest herself.
The cell phone on the table vibrated.
She picked up the phone as usual, opening the newly received message.
A photo of a child asleep in the back seat of a car, bound at the hands, appeared in her sight.
“Bang—”
The cell phone fell to the ground.
Lily hurriedly covered her mouth, looking at the two little babies on the bed.
Finding them still sleeping sweetly, not disturbed by the noise, she bit her lower lip, forcing herself not to tremble.
Even though her tears had already flowed freely, she didn’t allow herself to cry out loud.
Ben Lucas, her Ben Lucas—
Who? Who was so vicious to actually kidnap her Ben Lucas!
Eighth month of pregnancy, Lily told herself not to panic, not to be chaotic, she had a baby in her belly that needed her protection.
But however rational she was, her mind still flashed with countless images of Ben Lucas’s small body.
Images of him being tortured, being persecuted would flash by.
Heartache like a twist, almost like cramps and bone scraping pain.
Lily knew, she clearly knew, she shouldn’t be like this, shouldn’t continue to worry.
But Ben Lucas being kidnapped, this fact was the most unexpected blow to her.
Even though she knew she shouldn’t continue thinking, Lily couldn’t help but worry and panic, even feeling a twitching pain in her belly.
It’s not good, she realized, these were signs of contraction.
Lily took deep breaths, bracing herself to stand firm, trying to walk out and call for help.
Just then, the cell phone suddenly vibrated again, a new message arrived.
“If you want your son to live, in thirty minutes, go alone to Cityscape Avenue Warehouse No. 81. Don’t tell anyone, and don’t bring anyone, if I find you brought someone, I assure you’re coming to collect your son’s corpse. Lily Redington, you must believe, I can do it.”
Along with the text message came a picture of Evelyn Lucas placing a knife against Ben Lucas’s fair little face.
The heart instantly throbbed.
Lily didn’t have any time to think carefully, immediately replied: “Don’t hurt Ben Lucas, I’ll do anything you say!”
