Chapter 2651 Waylen responded coldly, “She's already left. She called me at the airport. I have no idea where she went.” The phone slipped from Leonel’s grasp, fracturing into two pieces.

Frantically, Leonel raced back to the apartment, slamming the door shut. The surroundings mirrored their usual state-Alexis had only consumed half of the breakfast he prepared, leaving behind half a glass of milk, a customary routine.

He sprinted to the bedroom and dressing room.

Her belongings remained untouched.

Only her ID and passport were missing.

On the bedside table, a gleaming diamond ring he had gifted her rested.

Leonel descended into a state of madness.

Manically, he dialed Alexis’ number and met with a dead tone.

() ‘s () Resorting to her secretary, he inquired about Alexis’ whereabouts.

The secretary disclosed that Alexis had secured a ticket to Alsilia.

The secretary was genuinely unaware of Alexis’ precise location.

Leonel promptly secured a seat on the same flight, albeit more than ten hours later than Alexis. At the airport, he engaged in a half-hour conversation with Waylen over the phone, disclosing everything about Serenity.

Waylen, rendered speechless by Leonel's revelations, concluded the call in silence.

At the airport, Leonel sat dejectedly in a chair, staring at his phone, anxiously awaiti Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...

ng a call from Alexis. Whether she called to scold him or end their relationship, he just wanted to hear from her.

Yet she refrained.

Silently, Alexis departed without uttering a single word.

Merely instructing her father to annul the engagement.

An aversion to exchanging words with Leonel lingered in her heart.

Leonel, suppressing his tears, lifted his head slightly. Serenity failed to evoke any emotional response from him. As anticipated by Darwin, Leonel’s concern stemmed solely from not wanting to witness a woman lose both her uterus and life.

He was temporarily extending aid and solace to Serenity.

But this assistance and solace became the catalyst for losing Alexis.

Leonel now, in hindsight, acknowledged that Alexis had discovered the truth the previous night when she saw the shirt.

Had he confessed then, could another opportunity have arisen?

Chapter 2652 Over the subsequent three years, Leonel repeatedly posed that question to himself during countless sleepless nights. He lamented not explaining himself to Alexis that night.

Boarding a plane bound for Alsilia, Leonel embarked on a journey.

News of Alexis remained elusive. A week later, Alexis departed for Flirean, a destination Leonel pursued as well.

Over the subsequent six months, Alexis shuttled between destinations, while Leonel lagged behind. He couldn't locate her, perennially a step too slow.

After six months, Alexis ceased her frequent travels and settled in Braseovell.

However, Leonel remained unable to locate Alexis.

Business matters awaited Leonel in the homeland. Returning to Duefron, he tended to company affairs. When he intended to fly to Braseovell again, Alexis was already eight months pregnant.

() ‘s () The evening preceding the flight, Leonel occupied Alexis’ apartment.

Leonel found himself unable to fall asleep. Over the past six months, he had been getting only about three hours of sleep per day.

Even sleeping pills proved ineffective.

Seated on the bed, a box at his side contained the wedding dress Alexis’ family had initially selected for her.

Their wedding had not been annulled.

On that particular day, Leonel returned from abroad. Solemnly, he concluded their wedding ceremony in the church by himself. As the pigeons ascended, he lifted his head, tears streaming down his face.

His heart ached for Alexis.

Her whereabouts remained a mystery, her silence persisting for an extended period of time.

He couldn't fathom whether he would ever see her again if he persisted in searching for her like this for an extended period of time. She had left so decisively, forsaking not only him but also her home.

Tenderly, Leonel caressed the wedding dress.

The longing for her morphed into an almost resentful emotion. She departed without entertaining his explanations.

What was her current state? How was the baby faring? Was forgiveness something she had chosen to withhold for the remainder of her life? A persistent ringing emanated from his coat pocket. Reluctant, Leonel hesitated to answer, but it persisted, compelling him to respond.

Ultimately, Leonel yielded and answered.

After considerable hesitation, the person on the line stated, “Mr. Douglas, I'm from the blood bank. A week ago, Miss Fowler arranged for the entire blood supply to be airlifted from the blood bank to Braseovell.” Transferring the entire blood supply from the blood bank?

Chapter 2653 Leonel, almost frantic, interrogated the staff about the specific destination of the blood supply in Braseovell.

However, the staff was unaware of the destination. They could only confirm that the blood was dispatched to the airport, where Alexis personally claimed it.

Disconnecting the call, Leonel hastily made his way to the airport.

Swiftly securing a private plane to Braseovell, Leonel, upon arrival, invested heavily in booking large screens and media outlets to Locate Alexis. Despite considerable expenses, Alexis appeared to have vanished from the world.

A week later, under the cover of night, Leonel’s phone rang with a call from Waylen.
