I Walked Away And He Lost His Mind (Zephyra and Steven) novel Chapter 518

The next few days were calm.

I kept a close eye on my family, and everyone was fine. Rachel was safe, and there were no problems on Horace's end.

Only Leonard was unreachable.

I sent him messages and called him, but he never responded.

I didn't know if he was still angry with Grandpa or if something had happened.

Ryan, who had just woken up, said to me while brushing his teeth, "Leonard must have gone to find Monica. That wicked woman is abroad. Leonard must be busy traveling, looking for her, and catching up. He probably doesn't have time for us."

I pursed my lips. "Then Leonard probably won't make it back for my wedding."

My relationship with Leonard wasn't so deep that his presence was essential. Having Grandpa and Uncle Julian there was more than enough, but he was the backbone of the Lopez family.

During the days he was gone, Grandpa, Uncle Julian, and even Ryan seemed not to worry, acting as if they couldn't control him. But in reality, they were checking their phones more and more often.

Especially Grandpa. He was getting older and was already worried about my marriage, and now he had to worry about Leonard too. I heard he hadn't been sleeping well for several nights and was exhausted.

I hoped Leonard would come home soon, or at least call back.

Ryan, his mouth full of toothpaste foam, scratched his head in frustration.

I looked at him. "Monica, right? Do you have her contact information?"

Ryan shook his head like a drum. "That wicked woman is a fallen heiress. Her father was arrested for corruption, her mother was attacked by his mistress with a knife, and she killed the mistress in retaliation, nearly ending up in prison. Her family has a terrible reputation, and everyone wants to kick them while they're down. She wouldn't easily give out her contact information."

"I don't know why she suddenly contacted Leonard this time, making him so distracted that he flew abroad overnight to find her. Leonard used to say she was like a poppy flower, and he was right. She's his destined nemesis. I just hope he comes home soon."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Killing her father's mistress in retaliation... what an unusual story.

Could someone who defended her mother so fiercely be a bad person?

I had no idea what she had done to Leonard to make the entire family dislike her so much.

I didn't press the issue, just hoped Leonard would reply to my messages soon.

But by the day before my wedding, Leonard still hadn't responded.

Instead, Linda gave me a call to congratulate me on my marriage. Unfortunately, she found out too late to attend the wedding, but she wished me a happy marriage.

I almost jumped out of my seat, my face changing. "How did you know I was getting married? Did Taylor tell you?"

Linda said, "No, Mr. Taylor went abroad. How would he know you're getting married? I heard it from Oliver. You remember him, right? The guy who bought your painting and then tried to hit on you."

I remembered Oliver. He was one of my clients, and his promotion had done a lot for my reputation. He was a wealthy man.
