The Unwavering Heart That Broke (Nathalie and Lance) novel Chapter 335

Lance sat quietly, his face unreadable, eyes flicking every so often to the antique clock on the wall.

Madonna didn’t seem bothered by his cool attitude. Her only concern was his well–being, so she spoke again. “Lance, I know you still care about Nathalie, but it’s over now. She’s moved on. You should, too.”

He finally broke his silence, voice edged with sarcasm. “Who said I can’t move on?”

onna blinked in surprise, then smiled. “That’s good to hear. Really, it here are so many women out there, you’ll meet someone right for you one day. If you’re over it, then I don’t have to worry anymore.”

Lance didn’t say anything else after that.

Madonna checked the time and stood. “Lance, I’m heading out.”

He looked her w finally responding. “Safe travels.”

After making sure everything was sorted, Lance left the house and got into his car, setting off for the Registrar’s Office.

His phone started ringing just then.

He looked at the screen. It was a call from his bodyguard.

Yeah?”

The bodyguard sounded freaked out. “Lance, something’s wrong… Felice s missing!”

.ance’s eyebrows shot up. “What happened?”

The bodyguard quickly explained. Felice had been quiet once they were in he car. She didn’t make a fuss all the way to the airport. When they got here, she asked to use the restroom. They couldn’t exactly refuse, so hey waited outside the door. The airport bathroom was crowded, but the >odyguards paid close attention.

Half an hour went by and Felice still didn’t come out.

With their flight about to leave, the bodyguard found an airport employee ind asked them to check inside. But Felice was gone.

she’d just… vanished.

.ance pinched the bridge of his nose and spoke quietly. “Get the security ootage for that area during that time. Watch it, slow it down, don’t miss anything.”
