Chapter 101

• Lance felt sick to the bone, his life had not been the same since he came back to no Sophie or their baby, he hadn’t been able to get a peaceful sleep, how could he sleep when the woman he loved and their unborn child were out there and might be in danger. He still couldn’t believe Patrick, who he trusted so much, was the same person to cause so much pain all in the name of helping him. Well, he didn’t help him, he only succeeded in making his life hell. Three days, three whole days looking everywhere for her but no sign of her. It was as if she landed in Briscout and disappeared, that’s the only thing he could find out. the country that she was from and he sent people there. He couldn’t even go find her by himself because he was caught up fixing the mess that Justin had tried to create. At least that never happened. If Patrick had not been ahead of himself and sent Sophie away without his permission, he would not be in so much pain right now.
• With each day that passes, his anxiety gets even higher, he feared that whatever had made Sophie change her identity and run away from home might be after her again and she was very alone and vulnerable. He had Patrick to blame for everything. Speaking of Patrick, he hasn’t seen or heard from him after he told him not to show up near him again. at first, he didn’t care what the fucker did but now, he was kind of worried that he might have handled everything the wrong way, he was still very mad at him for what he did and he didn’t see himself forgiving him anytime soon.
• Every day for the past three days, he waited for the call that never came and every of those days, he had been the one to call the people he had sent, they got no news of her. He still hated the fact that he couldn’t leave Otano as there were a lot of things he needed to do and with Patrick gone from his side, it was even harder for him to handle everything. The flooding the night he couldn’t make it home had done some damage in some parts of the kingdom, a bridge constructed when Justin had been king collapsed, the flood hadn’t been so strong but the fact that the materials used were all bad made it happen. Thankfully, no one was hurt because it happened at night and people do not go that way at night but it affected the production sector because the bridge led to a major factor in the kingdom, so he had to find a way to fix it immediately. Reconstruction has already started. Everything happening would have been easy for him to deal with if Sophie had been here but she wasn’t so he was having a hard time. He went back to drinking at night so that he could at least get some sleep. There was no Sophie or Patrick to tell him not to drink, he lost three people he loved on the same day and till now, he still didn’t know how to fix everything and get them back.
