Chapter 369


    After leaving the crew, Daphne went to Louis’ school, but none of his ssmates knew where he went


    because he was absent from his afternoon lectures. Then, Daphne went to the dormitory, but the


    answer was still the same. With that, she scratched the back of her head. Just as she was about to


    leave, she saw Louis return with a grim expression. Before she could go up to him, he had already


    entered the dormitory. Seeing him in this state, Daphne felt that something had happened. Thus, she


    took out her phone and dialed Louis’ number, but no one answered.

    As she stood outside for a moment, she was about to ask someone to help her call for Louis when she


    saw hime out of the dormitory with his luggage. When Daphne saw him, she immediately walked


    up to him and asked, “Where are you going?”


    When Louis saw her, he frowned and asked, “Why are you here?”


    “I went to look for you in ss, but your ssmates said you were absent, so I came here. I even called


    you, but you didn’t answer.” As Daphne spoke, she looked at the bag Louis was holding. “Now, can you


    tell me what’s going on?”


    When Louis noticed that she was looking at his bag, he subconsciously hid the bag behind him and


    said faintly, “Nothing’s wrong. I’m going to stay at home for a few days.”


    “It’s not even the weekend. Why are you going home?”


    “Something came up.”


    Hearing his words, Daphne hummed and said, “Alright, let’s go together. It’s been a long time since I


    last saw Leanna.”


    When Louis heard her words, he frowned deeply. However, Daphne urged him as she walked, saying,


    “Come on.”


    Then, Louis looked like he was at the end of his wits. “I’m going to my old house. She doesn’t live


    there.”


    When Daphne heard his words, she was not surprised at all. Then, she quickly reacted, saying, “I’ll


    give you a ride then. Since it’s rush hour, you won’t be able to get a ride that easily. Moreover, didn’t


    you say that you would treat me to a meal? I can have a free meal if I give you a ride.”


    Hearing her words, Louis didn’t say anything.


    Then, Daphne stared at him for a moment before saying, “Well, it looks like you aren’t going home. So,


    where are you going?”


    When Louis heard her words, he pursed his lips and stated coldly, “That’s none of your business.” His


    tone was distant.


    Hearing his words, Daphne was startled. She opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say. At that


    moment, she felt that she had overstepped his boundaries. However, Louis was Leanna’s brother, so


    she also treated him as one of her own. Since they had been on good terms in the crew, she


    subconsciously thought they had a closer rtionship, almost like siblings or friends. Thus, when she


    heard Louis’ words, she felt like knives stabbed into her heart.


    As she was in her thoughts, Louis walked past her and stomped off. Watching him leave, Daphne felt


    she shouldn’t care too much. So, she sent Leanna a text.


    ‘Louis had packed his things and left the dormitory.’ Then, she kept her phone and left.


    On the other hand, when Leanna got Daphne’s message, she immediately called Louis. However, the


    line was blocked. At that moment, she knew that something serious had happened.


    Then, she quickly grabbed her things and left the room. “I’m heading out, Zoe. I think I’m noting


    back tonight.”


    Hearing her words, Zoe nodded but still asked, “Hey, where are you going?”


    “Louis had packed his things and left school. I have a feeling that something is going to happen. I have


    to find him.” After finishing her words, Leanna left hastily.


    As she ran out of the studio, she encountered Daniel, who had just returned. When Daniel saw her, he


    was about to ask her what had happened, but she had already gone inside her car.


    At that moment, Daniel frowned. Just as he was about to look away, his eyes met with Zoe’s. After a


    few seconds of silence, he still decided to walk up to her and asked, “What happened?”


    Zoe looked at him and said faintly, “Louis hade to the studio, but something seemed off. Just now,


    Nana said that he had packed his things and left the school grounds.”


    When Daniel heard it, his expression was serious, and he immediately ran back to his car and chased


    after Leanna.


    Seeing that both Leanna and Daniel had left, Zoe had a serious look on her face. What is going on?


    At the same time, Leanna was driving toward Louis’ school while on the phone with Daphne. “Did he


    say anything to you when you met him?”


    On the other end of the call, Daphne curled her lips and said, “He didn’t say much, but I can feel that he


    was in a terrible mood.”


    Hearing her words, Leanna pursed her lips.


    “Oh yeah,” Daphne added. “He told me that he was going home, but I have a feeling that he was lying.


    Didn’t you guys move out of that house? Where is he going to stay?”


    When Leanna heard her words, she stepped on the brakes abruptly. I have to see it, even if there is a


    slim chance. Thinking about it, she quickly changed the direction she was heading.


    Daphne continued, “There’s one more thing. I heard from the crew staff that a man met Louis at his


    school in the afternoon. He was driving a luxury car and looked simr to Louis. My senses are telling


    me that this has something to do with his sudden change of behavior.”


    After hanging up the phone, Leanna sat still while trying to process the situation. However, there was


    no time for her to think this through. At this moment, her priority was to find Louis as soon as possible.


    When she arrived at the house Jethro had sold, she parked the car by the road and rushed upstairs.


    When she went upstairs, she saw that the door was half-closed, and the room was being thrashed. It


    looks like Louis did return.


    “Oh, Leanna, you’re back. I just saw your brother downstairs alone. I didn’t even have the chance to


    say hello to him when he ran off.” As the neighbor spoke, she saw the inside of the room and asked,


    “Are you guys moving out? I suppose that’s a good thing. After all, it’s bad for you guys to live here


    when it has been quite some time since your father passed. It’s time to sell the house.”


    “When was thest time you saw Louis?” Leanna asked.


    “I saw him ten minutes ago when I was fetching my grandson. It looks like he was heading toward


    where your father used to y poker. He had a scary look on his face,” the neighbor said.


    When Leanna heard her words, she thanked thetter and closed the door behind her. Just as she


    went downstairs, her phone rang, and she saw that it was an unknown number. Immediately, she


    picked up the call and said, “I want you to put aside Jethro’s matter first and help me find Louis. He is


    heading toward where Jethro used to gamble.”


    “Okay,” Ron replied.


    After hanging up the phone, Leanna sighed and gripped her phone tightly. Ron knows better about the


    casinos here than me. I’m sure he knows better how to act ordingly.


    Just as she was about to get in the car, she remembered how worried Aidan was thest time. After


    hesitating for a moment, she still decided to give him a call.


    However, it was Jonathan who answered the phone. “Miss McKinney, is there something you need?


    President Pearson is in a meeting now, and I’ll report it to him after the meeting is over.”


    “It’s nothing. I was just… Forget it. I’ll talk to him after the meeting,” Leanna said.


    Hearing her tone, Jonathan knew that something had happened. Thus, he said, “Send me the address,


    Miss McKinney. I sent someone over there immediately.”


    “Sure.” Leanna didn’t reject.
