Chapter 3840
Leonel struggled to fall back asleep.
He quickly sat up and dressed himself.
Despite his injured leg, which typically caused pain and restricted his movement, he now moved effortlessly and without discomfort.
It seemed as though he had surpassed his usual physical limitations in this moment of urgency.
Securing his belt, he hurried downstairs, simultaneously dialing Alexis’ assistant’s number.
The assistant, roused from her sleep, answered, “Oh, I didn’t accompany Miss Fowler to Tashkao this time.
”
Leonel entered the garage, opened a car door, and sat inside, momentarily pausing with his phone in hand.
“Could you check Alexis’ schedule for today?”
“Of course.

The assistant promptly checked and responded to Leonel in less than a minute, stating, “Miss Fowler called in the evening and mentioned she would visit the local opera house for an inspection.
She believes it may be relevant to the case.
”
“Send me the location.
Call Alexis’ hotel to check if she’s back.
We’ll stay in contact.
”
Leonel instructed, his voice tinged with concern.
Despite the gravity of the situation, he endeavored to maintain his composure, speaking calmly.
“There’s a high possibility that something has happened to Alexis.
Contact her parents.
Arrange for a helicopter rescue if necessary, and ensure doctors are on standby.
Locate a hospital, prepare an operating room, and inform them that Alexis is Rh-negative.
”
Ending the call, he trusted Alexis’ assistant to handle things.
Despite the doctor’s advice against driving, Leonel wasted no time starting the car.
The quickest route to Tashkao was by road.
Darkness shrouded the surroundings.
Speeding westward, Leonel piloted the black Land Rover out of the garage, pushing its limits like never before.
As he drove, recent news flashed through his mind.
In the dead of night, an ancient building in Tashkao crumbled, mercifully devoid of tourists.
Alexis could be trapped inside.
After a while, he merged onto the freeway.
The streetlights lining the roadside blurred past as he drove, his grip on the steering wheel tight and unwavering.
The pressure exerted caused his finger joints to pale from the strain.
Alexis’ assistant called Leonel, having organized everything, and set off for Tashkao due to the ongoing silence from Alexis.
Alongside the assistant, Waylen, Rena, and even Olivia, who remained with them, joined the journey.
Leonel was the first to arrive at the theater.
When he reached the location, it was four o’clock in the morning.
Countless lights pierced through the darkness of the night, illuminating the area.
Over a hundred individuals had already begun the search and rescue efforts.
Rescue dogs were deployed, diligently sniffing around in search of any human scent.
Leonel brought his car to a stop and swiftly jumped out of the car.
He retrieved his phone and dialed Alexis’ number.
Although the call connected, he couldn’t hear her phone ringing on the other end.
