He immediately dialed Clement’s number but got the same notification. Realizing something had gone horribly wrong, he strode toward the bedroom.
He opened the bedroom door and flung the doors to the closet open. Alicia’s clothes were gone, but the check he had left behind that day was still in its original spot. He gripped the check so hard that his veins bulged.
Taking a deep breath, he fished out his phone and made a call. “Find out where Alicia is now.”
He then hung up and sat on the edge of the bed with his brows furrowed.
Aaron had no idea he would come home one day to see all traces of Alicia wiped out of the apartment. He thought she would always be there whenever he returned.
His subordinate was quick. Less than twenty minutes later, Alicia’s information was sent to him.
Alicia majored in economics. She had a grandfather, father, stepmother, and two half-siblings. Last Wednesday, she took a two-year leave of absence from the university.
Aaron’s expression was as dark as thunder. He didn’t expect to hear that at all. At once, he ordered his subordinate to find out where Alicia had gone to.
After hanging up, he stared out the window blankly. He had no idea Alicia would leave him without even leaving any letter behind.
“Alicia, have you ever loved me?” Aaron mumbled as he shut his eyes.
Images of Alicia smiling adorably, acting sensibly, crying sadly, and being like a virtuous wife popped up in his mind.
