Chapter 252 Unable to Meet for a Lifetime

Peyton’s head jerked up. Her eyes stared straight at Kevin. “Really? Kevin, can you really find Leo?”

When she heard these words, she didn’t quite believe them. After all, Leo was someone who couldn’t even be found by Nolan.

But Kevin didn’t seem like someone who would lie, and his heart still felt like a small flame had been ignited.

“Yes. Earlier, I inquired through someone and found out that Leo has offended some people abroad and is currently hiding. He is not easily traceable by ordinary people. Fortunately, I have some connections.”

Peyton understood it all. No wonder Nolan said he couldn’t find Leo. Nolan wasn’t lying.

“That was my father’s surgery…”

“Peyton, your safety cannot be effectively guaranteed in the country. Since that person can put you in a life–threatening situation, they can also harm you again, and even Mr. Schmitt would be in danger if he stays with you. My suggestion is for you to go abroad with Mr. Schmitt. This way, you can avoid risks and also provide medical treatment for Mr. Schmitt.”

Peyton frowned. This was something she had never thought of before.

Rather than saying Peyton didn’t have this idea, it is more accurate to say she didn’t dare to think about it.

Nolan was like a mountain standing in her heart. He invisibly imprisoned her with multiple chains, making it difficult for her to

move even an inch.

“Peyton, I have many friends who studied medicine abroad. They were all top experts in the field of medicine. It cannot be guaranteed that your stomach cancer will be cured, but your survival rate will definitely be higher than that of doctors in your home country.”

Kevin licked his lips and continued, “I can tell that you have moved on from your ex–husband. What is there left for you to cling onto here? You can completely start a new life abroad.”

Peyton was like a frog that had been stuck in a dry well for a long time. She murmured in disbelief, “Can I…?”

And Kevin was a little bird on the branch, constantly persuading her about how vast the world outside the well was.

“Of course! Who are you?”

Kevin placed both hands on her shoulders. “You were Peyton. You were a brilliant medical student. You once gave up your brilliance for that man. Don’t you want to reclaim the life you abandoned?”

Peyton’s pupils kept dilating and flickering. Kevin encouraged, “The Peyton I know is not a resentful woman abandoned by men. She is a strong person who remains determined even in the face of setbacks. Peyton, you are not afraid of death, so why would you be afraid of a fresh start?”

Peyton closed her eyes, and her thick, long eyelashes trembled incessantly. “You don’t know, that person wouldn’t let me leave Aelford City. If I failed, I would pay a huge price. This is a price I cannot afford.”

She let go of Dawn and covered her face with both hands. “I am no longer the free–spirited Peyton who could sail anywhere she pleased. Kevin, what you see now is a battered and chained prisoner,

with every step.‘

“Peyton, if you were a captive bird, then I would be the knife that cuts your chains. I will arrange everything for you and Kason. We will be overseas before anyone finds out.”

Peyton looked conflicted. “I…”

“Even if they guessed that you were still alive, they wouldn’t know where you went, let alone that you would go abroad. Peyton, let’s leave by sea. Leo can’t show up in Aelford City, but he can come to international waters. We can complete Mr. Schmitt’s surgery on a deserted island, and you can also recuperate there after the surgery. Nolan will never find you in his lifetime.”

Speaking of urgency, Kevin reached out and grabbed Peyton’s wrist. “What do you have to be afraid of for someone you can never see again in your life? If Mr. Schmitt is your only weakness, then I’ll keep him by your side. You don’t have to be threatened by anyone anymore, and you don’t have to fear being kidnapped. You can start over and live a new life.”

Peyton’s heart fluttered. Kevin’s qualities were truly irresistible, to the point where she had no words to argue against them.

“Kevin, I could leave with you, but I still have one thing to do.”

“I didn’t want my father to always bear an undeserved bad reputation.”

A touch of hatred suddenly appeared in Peyton’s eyes. “As long as I’m alive, I will catch that ghost!”
