Chapter 297: In Front of the Club
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Everything happened way too quickly. Grace didn’t even have the time to scream. Before she knew it, someone swiftly covered her mouth and dragged her into the car. The next second, the car door slammed shut with a loud bang, and the engine of the black Passat roared before it sped off quickly.
The entire process lasted only a few seconds!
By the time Cheyenne reacted and chased after the car, she only managed to get a vague glimpse of the license plate number.
It was an abduction that actually happened in broad daylight!
Cheyenne was at a loss for what to do, and the only thing she could think of was to call Lucas immediately!
At this moment, Lucas was in William’s ward when his cell phone suddenly rang.
When Lucas saw that it was Cheyenne calling him, his expression immediately became serious.
Cheyenne had just left the ward angrily and given him the cold shoulder because of the earlier misunderstanding. She had even stopped him from following her and refused to give him a chance to explain himself. Now that she suddenly called him, he was certain that something serious must have happened!
Lucas immediately answered the call, only to hear Cheyenne’s anxious voice as she hurriedly exclaimed in panic on the other end, “Lucas, bad news! Someone forcefully dragged Grace into a car at the entrance of the hospital just now!
“It was a black Passat with the license plate AHT617, and it headed east.”
Cheyenne quickly told Lucas all the information she had and said anxiously, “Lucas, quickly find a way to save her!”
“Okay, I got it. I’ll go now!” Lucas didn’t have time to think about how Cheyenne got to know Grace. He simply sprung up immediately with a terrifying aura and strode out of the ward.

“William, I have something important to attend to now. Call me if you need anything!”
After informing William, Lucas immediately left the ward. At the same time, he made a call. While walking, he gave his instructions over the phone, “Quickly help me check this license plate, AHT617, belonging to a black Passat. It just left the entrance of Orange Coast Medical Center and is headed east. Hurry up and find out the current location of this car and the information of the people inside this car now! Keep a close tab on them!”
When he finished giving these instructions, he had already arrived at the elevator.
Lucas soon arrived downstairs and quickly ran out of the elevator. When Zach, who had been waiting near the entrance of the hospital, saw Lucas, he immediately walked over. “Mr. Gray, where are you headed? I’ll give you a ride!”
Zach had sent Lucas to the hospital earlier. At this time, Lucas couldn’t care less about politeness. He quickly got in the car and said to Zach, “Head east along the road in front of the hospital!”
Seeing the cold and austere expression on Lucas’s face and sensing his formidable aura, Zach dared not utter another word of nonsense and swiftly got into the driver’s seat. He started the black Jaguar and sped toward the main road right outside the hospital.
During the journey, Lucas’s phone rang. When he answered the call, Jordan said, “Lucas, I’ve got all the information. That car belongs to the Wallaces, and it has now pulled over in front of Club Splendor. It didn’t make any stops in between, so the people in the car should have entered the club too.”
Wallaces? The Wallaces again?!
Lucas’s gaze turned cold, and a murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
Liam Wallace had been pestering Grace, and after getting rejected by her, he had even put the blame on Lucas. Now that Grace had been forcibly taken away in a car belonging to the Wallaces, Lucas was absolutely certain that it had something to do with Liam!

A short while ago, he had just warned Liam not to harass Grace again. And yet, Liam was getting up to such a trick now. It seemed that the punishment he had given Liam was too light, so much that the latter didn’t take it seriously at all!
Lucas instructed Zach coldly, “Drive to Club Splendor immediately! As fast as you can!”
“Yes!” Zach was astonished. As a born and bred native of Orange County who also worked in that industry, he was naturally well aware of the businesses owned by some major families, just in case he accidentally offended someone he couldn’t provoke.
Club Splendor belonged to the Wallaces, one of the four most powerful families in Orange County. It was also an extremely famous entertainment joint in the city.
Judging from the solemn and murderous expression on Lucas’s face, Zach knew that Lucas had to be going to Club Splendor to deal with some trouble!
Lucas might be going to confront the Wallaces!
Zach thought about what happened this morning. He had followed Lucas to the Douglases’ villa this morning and witnessed with his own eyes Lucas ripping off Chris Douglas’s hand, followed by him slapping James Wilson to the point the latter had no choice but to succumb. He couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of pride, and he was even full of expectations!
Within just a day of following Lucas around, he had managed to witness many eye-opening events that he would never have been able to imagine in his entire life!
It’s too thrilling!
Zach was quite a good driver. After speeding up, the Jaguar sped through the endless flow of traffic on the streets of the bustling city and arrived at Club Splendor in just about ten minutes.
As soon as Lucas got out of the car, a young man who was just as tall as him walked over.
“Lucas.” The young man was none other than Jordan, Lucas’s best friend.
Lucas nodded at him silently.
Although Lucas didn’t ask Jordan to come here, being Lucas’s competent subordinate and close friend of many years, Jordan naturally understood that something must have happened. So after he reported to Lucas the information of the black Passat, he immediately headed to Club Splendor to meet him.
Lucas looked at Club Splendor in front of him.
There was a wide range of facilities offered in the club, including almost all entertainment services and amenities such as a swimming pool and a golf course. It was also extremely large and spacious, just like a manor.
At this moment, there were cars driving past the busy road in front of Club Splendor, and Lucas noticed that the majority of the vehicles parked in front of the club today were luxury cars of makes such as Maserati, Lamborghini, Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Porsche, and so on. There were almost no low-end cars in sight.
Lucas’s eyes narrowed, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.
Even if most of the customers of Club Splendor were wealthy, most of the clientele should mainly be of the upper-middle class since it was an entertainment joint. There shouldn’t be a fleet of solely luxury cars lined up at the entrance.
Unless… there was a special event in Club Splendor today, resulting in such a special sight. The cars parked at the entrance were all expensive cars that only the extremely rich could afford.
While Lucas was deep in thought, a fragrant scent of perfume wafted up to Lucas’s nose, and a woman dressed in an exquisite, strapless Chanel little black dress suddenly extended her fair arms to hold onto Lucas’s arm!
