Chapter 156: Selene Is Ava Clark!
“Bingo.”
Selene was napping in the car when she suddenly felt it jolt forward. Instantly, she blinked her eyes open.
“What’s that?” She asked Jake, urgency evident in her tone.
“Ma’am, there’s a truck behind us. I don’t know if the man driving is blind or probably drunk. I’ve already given him space to drive past us but he continues to stay behind the car,” Jake explained.
Selene frowned deeply as her heart hammered hard on her ribs. She parted her lips to speak, but another jolt interrupted her.
“Jake, you need to drive faster,” she ordered.
Jake hit the accelerator of the car, hitting full speed, unfortunately the truck was right behind them.
It was obvious from the actions of the truck driver, he wanted to tumple their car over. The street was nearly empty with only a few cars and people passing, but they couldn’t do anything about the situation.
Out of fear, Selene pulled out her phone to send Xavier a text, but the truck hit their car one more time with a bigger force.
Selene tried to reach for her phone from under her seat before the truck driver would hit the car again. It was obvious from his actions he had a goal in mind and someone must have sent him to do what he was doing.
Everything was happening so fast, without giving her enough time to think.
Just as Selene reached for her phone, the truck collided with their car, sending it tumbling over and crashing. The vehicle was now overturned, its roof pressing against the ground.
When the truck driver was satisfied with the sight before him, he quickly made a huge turn and left the scene before the pedestrians would call the police.
Selene’s car was a mangled wreck, with smoke and liquid pouring out. Onlookers gathered at the sound of the crash, rushing to assist those trapped inside.
He made a phone call. “It’s done,” he informed as soon as the call connected.
“I will transfer the rest of the money to you immediately,” the person from the other side of the phone responded.

At the hideout, Xavier stared at the screen of his computer, particularly at the data. His long index finger hovered above the keyboard as he stared at the data. It contained the history of Anastasia which he’d asked Maxwell to find for him.
“Just click on it already, I’m also curious to find out why Ezekiel was asking you about Anastasia’s picture,” Kace urged from behind Xavier, also staring at the screen before them.
“Can you not breathe so close to me? Move away,” Xavier asked Kace. The latter clicked his tongue, glaring at Xavier lightly, mumbling some words before taking a seat.
After a few seconds passed, the silence becoming louder and louder with each second, Xavier finally clicked on the data.
As if without control, his eyes scanned through the words written on the screen faster than he imagined, the pictures followed next, the picture of Selene as a child at the Clark family, then at the Harrison family.
Pictures of the investigation when Ava Clark disappeared followed next and in less than 5 minutes, Xavier understood why Ezekiel was asking for Anastasia’s picture.
“She’s Ava Clark?!” Kace mumbled under his breath.
Xavier’s hands clenched tightly in anger as he glared at the monitor.
‘No wonder she looked familiar from the first day I met her,’ he thought to himself.
All of a sudden, Xavier received a phone call. He checked the caller and identified the name to be one of the shadow guards he’d tasked to watch Selene and keep her safe. They rarely called him but since they were calling him, something must have happened to Selene.
“What happened to Selene?” He questioned immediately.
Before the shadow guard could complete his sentence, Xavier had already dashed, while Kace stared at him and wondered what had happened. Immediately, Kace followed behind him as well and the both of them headed towards the hospital.

At the hospital,
Xavier arrived at the ward Selene was receiving treatment. Both he and Kace found Kael sitting in the front hospital room, looking sick with his clothes stained with blood.
“What are you doing here?” Xavier questioned Kael who was a little shocked to find him there. He glanced between Xavier and Kace.
If it had been any other day, Kael wouldn’t have bothered to speak with either of them. Likewise the two brothers before him also.
“The incident happened not quite far from the set. We heard the commotion and when we came out, we found Selene’s car crashed. I brought her here. She already lost a lot of blood. I donated mine,” he explained.
Xavier’s eyes landed on the bandage taped to his wrist. His face was as pale as a white sheet of paper which only made them both wonder how much blood he donated to Selene.
As if on cue, the doctor attending to Selene came out from the operating room.
When he saw Xavier, he didn’t have to ask if the patient was related to her.
“Ms. Selene suffered from a sharp metal that stabbed into her stomach. Thankfully the wound wasn’t too deep to be alarming, we’ve stopped the bleeding. Mr Clark here donated some blood and there’s nothing to worry about. She should wake up soon. You can go ahead and see her if you’d like,” the doctor informed without Xavier having to ask him.
“Thank you doc,” Xavier replied. The doctor bowed slightly and excused himself.
Even though the doctor said there was nothing to worry about, Xavier was still worried about her.
He turned to Kael. “Thank you, Kael.”
Not only Kael but Kace was also shocked by Xavier expressing his appreciation to Kael.
“Thank you for bringing Selene here and for donating your blood,” Xavier added.
Kael nodded without speaking a word.
“However, I want you to run a DNA test with Selene.”
Despite the fact Xavier believed the data that was sent to him by Maxwell, he still wanted to be sure Selene was indeed Ava.
“Why would you want me to have a DNA test done with Selene?” Kael questioned Xavier with confusion etched on his face.
“Because you are her brother. Selene is Ava,” he replied.
