Chapter 215 The Secret Pregnancy of the Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 215: Parting Again Angela POV Two days had passed, and I still hadn't received any information about David.
My mind drifted to all the moments over the past five years when David had been there for me: "Ms. Wilson, Mr. Blake askedto pick you up. When will you be leaving work?" "Ms. Wilson, I bought snew picture books for the children. When would be convenient forto drop them off?" "Ms. Wilson, there's a severe weather warning today. Remember to take an umbrella when you go out, and the temperature will drop, so please dress warmly." My eyes welled up at these memories.
Though David always claimed he was following Christopher's instructions, he had genuinely helpedin countless ways. Especially during our last encounter-if not for him, I might still be held captive on that Mediterranean island.
Thomas noticed my reddened eyes and immediately grew concerned.
"Ms. Wilson, please don't worry too much," he said hastily. "If Mr. Chen dared to help you escape the island, it means he was prepared for the consequences. He knew what he might face afterward, so you shouldn't-" His voice gradually faded as he realized he might be making things worse. An uncomfortable silence filled the room.
I felt Sean's eyes on me, watching as I grieved for someone else. I could sense the concern in his gaze. His hand tightened then relaxed, and finally, he gently consoled me: "Don't worry too much. Sometimes no news is good news-at least it's not bad news, right?" Thomas nodded. "Mr. Shaw is right. Please don't worry, Ms. Wilson. We're doing everything possible to locate Mr. Chen." Despite their reassurances, my mood remained somber.

1/3 Chapter 215: Parting Again Ethan, more perceptive than Iffs sister, quickly intervened when he heard her ask again: “Arla, let's not ask Mommy these questions anymore.
He tried to pull her away, but I stopped them both.
"You're both Mommy's treasures. If you want to know something, just ask directly.
Mommy can answer anything. Ethan, I know you're always thinking of Mommy, but you're still just a child. You don't need to constantly worry about me, understand?* "Mommy..." Ethan started.
"It's okay," I gently pinched both their cheeks and softly answered their question. "About what you just asked, Mommy will give you an official answer. Whether we'll see Uncle Christopher again, I'm not really sure, but what I can tell you now is that Uncle Christopher is sick. Maybe when he gets better, you might see him again." Aria innocently asked, "Then Mommy, when will Uncle Blake get better?" The question putin a difficult position, but I answered anyway: That, Mommy isn't sure about either, but I believe he will recover." In my heart, I thought that life always needs shope.
I privately wished that Christopher's psychological issues could be treated soon, allowing everyone's lives to return to normal.
*** In the afternoon, I received news that our passports and travel documents were ready.
Tickets could be purchased at any time-we could prepare to return to New York.
Yet I still had no news about David Chen, and Christopher had been injured in the confrontation.

Sean perceived my inner conflict and reassured me: "You and the children should return to New York first. I'll stay here to handle things. The children need to get back to school soon." "You're staying?" I frowned and asked, "What for? Isn't everything here mostly resolved?" "I promised you I'd rescue David, and I intend to keep that promise.

Don't go back to your previous apartment either-move to the Park Avenue apartment. Thomas will arrange 24-hour security to ensure your safety." Though Sean wouldn't be returning with us, he had already arranged everything. As I listened to him speak, my discomfort grew.
I couldn't help biting my lower lip and asking, "Can't the matters here be handled by others from the company?* "If I leave it to others and something goes wrong, what then? If not for Mr. Chen, it might have takenmuch longer to find you all." Seeing I wanted to say more, Sean gently wrapped his arm around my waist.
"Don't overthink this. If I've chosen to stay, it means I'm confident I can handle it." 2/3 Chapter 215: Parting Again "But... these things aren't your responsibility."
"Angela," Sean called my nsoftly.

"Go on," Sean urged, gently pushingtoward the bedroom to pack After that, Sean left. Perhaps feeling emotional about our impending separation, he chose not to stay any longer.
I stood alone in the luxurious suite, looking up at the empty room.
Thinking about him staying alone in Europe to search for David, I gradually felt lonely and worried.
