On the other end of the phone, Marie burst into tears and fell into deep self-blame.
However, Leo couldn’t hear what she was talking about later.
Because when Marie said the words “Emilia is lost”, Leo’s pupils had already shrunk and lost focus.
Heavy rain hit the city, lightning flashed, and Leo held the phone as if he had become a motionless sculpture.
Lydia also felt something was wrong. She asked anxiously, “What happened?”
Leo did not respond and fell into a long silence.
During the silence of Leo, the surrounding air condensed sharply, and a monstrous killing intent erupted like a storm.
The wind was getting stronger, the rain was getting colder, and the whole world was dead silent.
Yes, only Marie’s painful and desperate self-blame could be heard.
“Sorry, I’m terribly sorry…”
“It’s all my fault. If it wasn’t because of me, Emilia wouldn’t have lost it...”
“Leo, you can scold me and hit me, but you must get Emilia back...”
Leo didn’t turn on the speakerphone, but Lydia heard it and she was stunned.
The next moment, she took Leo’s call and forced a smile, “Don’t joke, this kind of joke is not fun at all...”
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Marie’s cries, “Lydia, I’m not kidding, Emilia is really lost!”
Suddenly, Lydia fainted as if she was hit hard.
“Lydia!”
Leo’s face changed greatly, and he hurriedly hugged Lydia who couldn’t stand the blow, “Lydia, are you alright?”
Fortunately, Lydia woke up quickly. When she saw Leo, her eyes suddenly turned red, “Little Li is lost, Emilia is lost...”
“I know.”
Leo repeatedly said with relief, “Emilia will be fine. Don’t worry.”
After speaking, he asked in a deep voice, “What’s going on, how did Emilia get lost?”
Perhaps because he was too angry, Leo’s voice was filled with endless chills.
Marie had no time to blame herself at this time. She cried.
“I had a good time with Emilia, but suddenly it rained heavily, and a lightning strike hit a telepgraph pole, which caused panic. Emilia and I were scattered by the crowd. When I came back to my senses, Emilia was gone...”
“Why didn’t you tell me right away?”
Hearing this, Leo’s eyes were split, interrupting Marie’s words and roaring.
This was the first time he was angry with Marie, because he couldn’t bear it anymore.
What happened tonight, one by one, touched the bottom line of Leo. Whether it was Bertie threatening Lydia with a video from five years ago, or being assassinated by a professional killer, Leo was full of anger.
However, he could bear these, and when Marie informed him that Emilia was missing, he couldn’t bear it any longer.
Marie was also startled, but still said in a trembling voice, “I thought Emilia was nearby, so I didn’t disturb your appointment with your sister, but I searched around and there was no trace of Emilia----”
“Where are you now, I’ll find you.”
After the rage, Leo immediately recovered his calm and said coldly.
“Emerdale Park.”
Marie told her where she was, and Leo immediately called Nadine and asked her to come over.
What happened tonight has exhausted Lydia, especially Emilia’s disappearance, which became the last straw that broke the camel’s back. Lydia’s face was pale and her mind was haggard. She had no strength.
“Could it be from my family?”
She said with a trembling voice, “With the strength of the royal families in Country YD, they are indeed capable of doing all of this. They simply cannot tolerate the existence of Emilia...”
“They dare not.”
A strong killing intent flashed in Leo’s eyes, and his voice became extremely cold.
Hearing this, Lydia fell into a long silence.
After a long time, he looked at Leo with red eyes, and said hoarsely, “Emilia will be fine, right?”
“It’ll be fine, I swear by my life.”
Leo’s expression was extremely serious, but the killing intent in his heart was spreading everywhere.
