Chapter 421 So Close

Elijah was inspecting the progress of the renovation of the new

company when he saw Ben, pale-faced and unusually lacking in

composure, rushing in.

"I can't contact Imogen. I can't find any trace of her. She has vanished

into thin air!"

Elijah paused and immediately took out his phone and dialed Cordelia's

number.

"The number you have dialed is out of service.”

"Cordelia's phone is out of service.”

"So is Imogen's!" As Ben met Elijah's calm and composed gaze, he

gradually calmed down as well.

It must be a planned escape.

Elijah also realized that Cordelia was missing.

The two of them had run away together.

"Eason and Adam must know where they went. They must be involved

in this."

Elijah struck the freshly painted wall with a heavy sound.

Ben gritted his teeth. "I should have killed the two men. They're always

getting in the way!"

"Anyway, it's Imogen and Cordelia's idea." Elijah lowered his eyes.

Disappointment was evident in his eyes. "Now is not the time to deal

with the two men. Let's find Imogen and Cordelia first! Is Imogen about

to give birth?"

"The due date is one month from now," answered Ben immediately

without hesitation.

It was clear that he constantly kept Imogen's due date in mind.

Elijah pondered for a moment. "Wait here, I'll call Mr. Gudwin."

Elijah walked into a random room and made the phone call.

Ben calmed down, and based on Elijah’s information, his thoughts

seemed clearer.

Imogen's pregnancy was suspicious!

But he had no evidence!

Before long, Elijah came out and said thoughtfully, "According to

reliable sources from the hospital, there is nothing wrong with

Imogen's belly. You're overthinking.”

"Impossible!" Ben's eyes turned crimson.

Obviously, he couldn't accept this fact.

"Stay calm,” Elijah said in a cold tone.

"If it is fine, why did she hide? And why did she disappear?" Ben raised

his voice, questioning Elijah.

Elijah didn't argue with him about his temper.

He was also frustrated and anxious right now, but he didn't want to just

rage here. He wanted to do everything he could to find out where these

two women had gone!

But Ben was clearly breaking down

Just as he was about to smash something, Elijah punched him in the

stomach.

"Now, are you calm?"

Ben held his stomach, weakly leaning against the wall.

"My woman! My child..."

"If you think about it, what have you done to Imogen in the past? And

later, have you made up for it?" Elijah coldly questioned.

Ben's gaze became hollow, and his lips trembled for a long time. Finally,

with a weak voice, he said, "No."

Elijah looked at him coldly. "If you could give her more sense of secure,

she wouldn't have hidden like this out of distrust towards you."

Ben sarcastically said, "I promised to marry her. Isn't that enough for

her?"

"Words are easy, but what about actions? What have you actually

done?”

Elijah’s words woke him up from his illusion

Ben slowly took out the diamond ring from his shirt pocket and

muttered, "Yes, once, I felt so close to keeping her forever..."
