Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 459

Chapter 459 The Escape Plan 

Crystal nodded thoughtfully. Going abroad is a good idea. Leonard can’t exactly follow you overseas, right? And with him and Luca tearing each other apart, he probably won’t have the time to chase after you” 

That was exactly what I had in mind

With multiple companies invested in the Manovia project, Leonard couldn’t be reckless. If Luca kept him occupied, I could receive proper treatment in 

Manovia 

Julian has also suggested I go abroad for treatment. My old university is over there too, so it makes sense. At least I could be active instead of just lying here. I’m going to die from boredom before anything else if I keep this up.” 

I glanced at Zack, knowing I’d need his help to pull this off. I had money but no resources or connections

However, he shook his head

Going abroad would leave a record. Medical treatment leaves a paper trail too. Do you think Leonard won’t catch on? Even if there’s a delay in processing your death,he’d still be able to trace you. Do you really think you can false your death in front of him without him suspecting anything?Zack sank into the couch with a sigh. I won’t lie, It’s tricky. But if you’re determined to go, I’ll do everything I can to help. Don’t worry

I nodded gratefully, feeling a glimmer of hope. As long as he was willing to help, there was a good chance I could pull this off

Crystal had been quiet for a while, and I gently nudged her hand. What are you thinking?” 

Just wondering where you’ll hide. Our country is big. We should be able to find somewhere for you to go off the grid. How about going to my hometown? It may not be the most convenient, but it’s secluded enough. Lots of people go there to retire or recuperateyou could just join the senior community.” 

I smiled, halfjokingly considering it. Her hometown was a charming, picturesque placeperfect for a quiet getaway. But thinking about my condition, I shook my head 

I’ll probably need to stay in a hospital, maybe even have a couple of caretakers. Can your hometown handle that? I still think going abroad makes the 

most sense.” 

Zack nodded in agreement

We all knew that, realistically, my health wouldn’t allow me to be anywhere without medical support

Even if I could fake my own death, It would only mean leaving Leonard behind. I still couldn’t escape this illness

Crystal, however, shook her head firmly. Ms. Green, if you leave the country without proper ID, you’ll essentially be an illegal immigrant. It would be worse for you over there. But if you travel under your real name, Leonard will catch on immediately

You’re not actually planning for us to wheel you into the funeral parlor and burn you, are you? What would we fill the urn withbaby formula?” 

She glared at me, stubbornly focused on legal details. I couldn’t help but laugh at her relentless commitment to the rules

If I ended up in a funeral parlor, I halfexpected Leonard to personally oversee my cremation
