Refusing To Be His Perfect Replica I Choose The Arranged Marriage

Chapter 681.

"Crack!"

Aveline was eating, and she didn't know what was wrong. She was obviously very hungry, but she started feeling very uneasy. The spoon she picked up fell to the ground and made a cracking sound.

Aveline subconsciously bent down to pick it up, but Ciara told her:

"Don't worry about it, let the servant do it."

Before Ciara finished speaking, Aveline's finger was scratched by a porcelain piece, and blood dripped on the white porcelain piece.

"Come here now."

Ciara casually called for the servant to come over and bandage her.

Aveline looked at the blood in a daze, "How long has Alexander been there?"

"Don't worry, he should be back soon." Ciara comforted her as the cell phone on the table rang.noveldrama

"I'll take a call."

Ciara let go of Aveline and answered the phone. No one knew what the person said on the other end of the phone. Ciara's usually calm face changed its expression, and she even stood up suddenly.

"I understand. Send more men immediately."

Aveline's uneasiness increased, "Mom, what happened?"

"It's okay, it's just a little trouble. You continue to eat and I'll take care of things."

After saying that, Ciara turned around and left, not even having the patience to explain a few more words as usual.

Aveline had a hunch that the call had something to do with Alexander.

It was getting dark, so she quickly dialed Alexander's number.

There was a mechanical female voice on the other end of the phone saying that the line was not reachable. Aveline's calls to some of his men either could not be answered or were turned off.

Aveline hurriedly chased after Ciara but only saw the rear of the car as Ciara drove away.

What happened?

Aveline dialed Ciara's phone number, but the line was always busy. It was obvious that Ciara was on a long call at that time.

Rebecca, who has always been with Ciara every day, was also missing.

Aveline was on tenterhooks at home. She had just arrived in that city and was still unfamiliar with the people and the place.

There was no other thing she could do than for Aveline to lift her legs and run towards the old man's small building, hoping that the old man would be awake at that time

Just when she ran into his yard, the old man was leaning on a cane with a serious

look on his face.

"Grandpa... something might have happened to Alexander."

The old man was different from usual, "I already know, don't worry, our people have already gone there."

Aveline found that he had a praying bracelet in his hand, and he kept moving the beads while talking.

The old man was obviously wearing a simple tunic suit, but his whole body exuded a cold killing intent.

"Grandpa, I'm a little uneasy. Can you tell me what happened?"

"In truth, he was tricked into a trap."

The old man sighed, "Alexander

grew up in Alberta. He is a native of

Alberta. Although he travels on business all the year round, he doesn't stay for a long time and

doesn't know the situation here. In order to find out the culprit who had been trying to assassinate you, he was unexpectedly led into an abandoned factory, where explosives were buried, just waiting for Alexander to go in."

Aveline reached up and covered her mouth, "Explosives?"

"There are also toxic substances in the warehouse, which are volatilized by high-

temperature explosions and are lethal to the human body."

Every word the old man said was like a heavy hammer hitting Aveline.

Her mind was at a loss. How could that happen? Not that not long ago, the man had been by her side coaxing her, so how could

something like that happen suddenly?

It took Aveline a while to find his voice: "Then...how is he?"

The old man sighed, "He would have a narrow escape from death."
