Chapter 1738


    “Me?” Lily did not understand and was puzzled.


    "You told her she should be careful since she''s pregnant, but what about you? Have you forgotten that


    you''re also a pregnant woman?" Alexander spoke gently, cing one hand on her swollen belly.


    It pained him to see her running around like this. Apart from sharing her burden with her, there was


    nothing much he could do.

    Hearing this, Lily burst intoughter. She wanted to say she was fine but only nodded after seeing how


    concerned he looked. "Okay, I''ll listen to you."


    Only then did Alexander have the peace of mind to call someone to track Edward down.


    Meanwhile, Edward drove the car through a majestic gate to the underground parking lot. After leaving


    the car, he walked toward a ck jeep with its engine still running. As soon as he got into the ck


    jeep, it drove away.


    …


    Alexander soon persuaded Lily to go to bed first. After all, no one knew when Edward would go home.


    The person Alexander had sent to find Edward’s whereabouts had not reported back, so they could not


    continue to wait like this.


    Lily went upstairs andy in bed, awake. She could not sleep. There were too many things going on in


    her mind. However, her body was tired. Ultimately, she slowly fell asleep. When she woke again, she


    realized Alexander was still not in the room. She turned to look at the time and saw that it was almost


    three in the morning.


    ‘It’s already sote.’


    She got up and headed downstairs, only to notice that the light in the study room was still on and the


    door was ajar. It seemed like Alexander was in there.


    She walked over lightly, and when she did not hear any movement inside, she pushed the door open


    slightly and saw Alexander leaning back against his chair with his eyes closed, obviously asleep.


    However, he was still holding his phone in one hand. Although he was asleep, his brows remained


    deeply furrowed.


    Lily''s heart ached when she saw him like that. The dark circles around his eyes showed he was just as


    tired. He was just trying to hold everything together by himself.


    She picked up a nket to cover him—just that little movement was enough to wake him up. His eyes


    shot open, and when he saw it was Lily, he rxed again. "Why did youe downstairs? Did you not


    sleep well? Maybe you can light some scented candles?"


    "Why aren''t you sleeping upstairs?" Lily smiled and shook her head. She nced at his phone and


    asked, "Is there still no news about Edward?"


    "We found him," Alexander said, shaking his head.


    Lily was shocked. She was expecting a different answer. "Then…"


    After such a long silence, she thought Edward was still untraceable. She wondered why Alexander


    looked so unhappy if they had found Edward. On the contrary, Alexander''s face seemed solemn.


    "Things may be moreplicated than we thought." Alexander pinched the bridge of his nose. "My


    subordinate followed him but couldn’t get in. He could only wait outside for Edward’s car toe out.


    However, it seems like Edward is still in the building."


    "He can''t get in?" Her brain started spinning. She could not think of where Edward''s car would be


    allowed in but not theirs.
