Chapter 212: I’m leaving!

Alicia’s POV

Alexander watched me cry, his brows knitting tightly together.

He reached out instinctively, gently wiping the tears from my face.

"Don’t cry," he said softly. "It’s not your fault. It’s mine..."

Not my fault?

But if Alexander had known Lilian was meeting Nana that night...

and still said nothing to me...

Then what was I supposed to think?

The only thing I could think about now was that Nana had tried to protect our marriage, tried to force Lilian to leave—

and in the end, it had cost her life.

I pushed his hand away.

My eyes were red from crying, but my voice had turned frighteningly calm.

"Don’t comfort me anymore."

Alexander froze slightly.

"We both know why Nana agreed to meet Lilian."

"Alicia..."

I slowly lifted my gaze to meet his.

My eyes were still, almost emotionless, like the surface of a frozen lake.

"Alexander," I said quietly, "this was our fault."

The moment those words left my mouth, Alexander’s expression changed instantly.

"Alicia, don’t say that—"

But I cut him off.

Alexander had always been someone who focused only on moving forward.

To him, the past was something to leave behind once it was over.

But I wasn’t like him.

I remembered everything.

Every feeling.

Every wound.

Every moment.

And once those emotions rooted themselves inside me, I could never truly let them go.

I closed my eyes briefly, trying to steady my breathing.

Then I looked back at him.

"I need to see Lilian."

Alexander’s expression darkened immediately.

"Stop being unreasonable. You need to rest."

Ignoring his words, I slowly sat up straighter.

"No."

My voice trembled slightly.

"I need to see her."

"I need answers."

"I can’t let her get away with this."

When Alexander remained silent, I pushed the blanket away and stood up.

"If you won’t take me to her, then I’ll find her myself."

"Alicia."

Within seconds, Alexander stepped in front of me, blocking my path.

His voice turned low and firm.

"Lilian isn’t at the hospital."

"She disappeared a few days ago."

"I’ve already sent people to search for her."

"Go upstairs and rest first. Once I find her, I’ll let you know."

I stared at him as though he had just said something absurd.

Then I laughed bitterly.

"You really let her walk away?"

Alexander frowned.

"What?"

I looked straight at him, my voice filled with disbelief.

"You’re still protecting her?"

"Is that it?"

"Are you afraid I’ll hurt her?"

"Alicia, what are you talking about?"

A sharp pain twisted inside my chest.

"So what she said was true after all..."

Alexander’s expression stiffened slightly.

I let out a cold laugh.

"You told me you’d make sure she left the country."

"And yet she’s still here."

"How long has it been already?"

"If you weren’t protecting her..."

"then why hasn’t she disappeared yet?"

"Alicia," Alexander said firmly, taking a step closer, "did you meet Lilian?"

I didn’t answer.

I simply stood there as tears continued streaming silently down my face.

The more I cried, the more Alexander’s expression showed concern.

"Alicia," he said again, his voice softer this time, "what did Lilian say to you?"

"You can’t let her words affect you like this."

But I couldn’t believe him anymore.

Not now.

Not when everything around me felt like a lie.

Ignoring him completely, I stepped forward again, determined to leave.
