MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND - Season 1 Episode 52

While driving, Sophie looked at Charlotte’s reflection in the rearview mirror and asked worriedly when she saw how unwell Charlotte seemed, “Charlotte, did something happen?”

Charlotte shook her head as teardrops rolled down her cheeks. She wiped her eyes and forced a crestfallen smile. “Nah, I’m just in low spirits today. I’ll be fine after a while.”

Sophie felt that it would be inappropriate to ask further and decided to probe again when they returned home. She felt upset seeing how dejected her best friend was.

While Sophie was driving on a secluded road, a Hummer suddenly sped over from the intersection ahead and collided into the passenger side of her car.

Bang! With a loud collision, Sophie’s car was forced to come to a halt as glass shattered all over the place.

Charlotte passed out under the impact.

“Charlotte!” Sophie was feeling dizzy as she anxiously tried to check on Charlotte’s condition while picking up her phone to call the police.

But at this moment, the doors of the Hummer that crashed into her car opened, and several burly men who didn’t seem like decent people opened the passenger door beside Charlotte.

“What are you doing?!” Sophie yelled in horror, but a hand reached in through the window and smacked her on her neck, causing her to pass out immediately.

Meanwhile, several people pulled Charlotte out of the car and carried her into the Hummer.

Soon, the Hummer restarted and quickly disappeared in the darkness of the night.

Amid the dark shadows in the distance, the dim flickering lights lit up a parked car and Bryce’s face, making him look extremely terrifying. “Charlotte Carter, you forced me into this. After you end up in the same state as your sister, I’ll see how you can still be arrogant in front of me!”

The secluded street was empty, and the car, which had been destroyed beyond recognition due to the collision, remained stationary in a corner quietly.

After a while, Sophie regained consciousness, and when she opened her eyes to see the ruined car, she finally recalled what had happened earlier. In a panic, she frantically looked around.

The passenger seat was empty, the car door was open, and there were shards of glass scattered all over the ground. Charlotte was nowhere to be found.

“Charlotte!”

——

At this moment, Cheyenne had tucked Amelia in at home and was mulling over and over about the things that happened over the past few days. However, there was only silence in Charlotte’s room.

Cheyenne knocked on the door, but there was no sound inside. “Charlotte, are you there?”

She knocked again and turned the knob to open the door, only to see that Charlotte’s room was empty.

She frowned. It’s almost eleven. Isn’t she home yet?

Karen was wearing her pajamas and munching on some snacks in the living room downstairs.

“Mom, where did Charlotte go? Is she not at home?”

“Oh, she’s not?” Karen finally noticed that her youngest daughter was not at home, but she didn’t take it too seriously. She simply said nonchalantly, “She must have gone to her friend’s.”

Cheyenne was speechless and was about to call her sister to ask when her phone suddenly rang.

When Cheyenne picked up the phone, she heard Sophie crying on the other end. “Cheyenne, bad news! Cheyenne is in trouble!”

Cheyenne’s face instantly paled!

——

At this moment, Lucas was sitting in the back seat of a Jaguar sedan and listening to Jordan report some information that he had found from asking around lately. All of a sudden, his phone rang. It was a call from Cheyenne.

When he saw that Cheyenne was actually taking the initiative to call him, his face could not help but look gentler as he answered. “Cheyenne…”

“Lucas, Charlotte has been kidnapped. What should we do? Do you have a way to save her?” As soon as the call went through, he heard Cheyenne’s flustered voice.

Lucas’s face grew stern immediately. “Don’t panic. Talk to me slowly. Where did she get kidnapped? Did anyone see?”

Under Lucas’s calm asking, Cheyenne told him everything that Sophie had just told her, including, of course, Dominic’s visit and the fact that Bryce had approached Charlotte twice but was rejected by her.

After hearing her words, Lucas had a vague guess.

He comforted, “Cheyenne, don’t be too anxious. Just stay at home and wait. Don’t go anywhere. I’m going to search for Charlotte now. I’ll definitely bring her home safely.”

After hanging up, Lucas said to Jordan, who was driving, with a cold and grave expression, “Turn around. We’re going to the Carters’.”

Hearing Lucas’s icy-cold voice, Jordan couldn’t help but feel his heart palpitate. “Yes, Lucas!”

In the Carters’ main residence…

Dominic was pacing back and forth in a room in frustration.

Usually, he would have long begun resting. But now that the Carters were facing a crisis, he was overwrought and full of anxiety, so he wasn’t the least bit sleepy at all.

Seeing that it was already 11 p.m. and that there was only an hour to go before the deadline for the loan repayment, he felt incredibly flustered. However, he had already resorted to all solutions and tried to contact his old friends for help, but to no avail.

Are the Carters going to be ruined just like that? No, I can’t let that happen!

While Dominic was thinking about how he could send some expensive gifts and have a chat with the director of the bank tomorrow, he heard loud banging, clattering, and some shrieks coming from downstairs.

He immediately flew into a rage. He pulled open the door and yelled, “What’s the commotion about?!”

However, when Dominic saw the situation downstairs, his eyes suddenly widened in horror.

The tall and luxurious gate of the Carter residence had already been deformed from violent kicking, and there were pieces of tempered glass scattered all over the floor. There were also more than ten people lying on the ground, all of whom were Carter family members and security officers.

Only one person stood in the center of the hall, exuding a fearful aura.

“Who are you? Why did you suddenly barge into the Carter residence?” Dominic’s heart was thumping fast as he mustered the courage to ask.

This person raised his head, revealing a familiar face.

“It’s you?!” Dominic received a great fright, after which he flew into a rage. How dare Cheyenne Carter’s loser husband barge into my home?! Does he really think we’re pushovers?

“Security! Hurry up and get this person out of here!” Dominic hollered.

Lucas remained unfazed.

Jordan stayed outside. Many people had already passed out on the ground.

“Where’s Bryce Carter? Get him to come out,” Lucas said coldly.

Dominic flew into a rage. “Who are you to call my grandson’s name directly, you good-for-nothing?”

Before he could finish his words, his vision blurred, and Lucas immediately vanished. In the blink of an eye, he already reached Dominic and was choking him.

“I don’t have the patience to listen to your nonsense. Where is Bryce Carter?!”
