All Chapters of HE LEFT ME FOR MY STEPSISTER, I MOVED ON TO THE NEXT: Chapter 451 - Chapter 460

Chapter 451“Exactly,” Harris said. “This location tells us she was here.”Nathan nodded.“Then search everything.”“We are.”“Every vehicle record. Every camera. Every road.”Harris nodded.“I assure you that nothing will be overlooked.”Nathan looked back toward the baby. He felt sorry for the child, even through his own pain.She was innocent. She had simply become part of a search that belonged to another family.“Make sure she is taken to somewhere safe.”“Definitely, she will be taken to the police station first then to an orphanage.”“Good plan.” Nathan sighed and walked outside.The cold air hit his face. He looked toward the road.Mia had been here. That much was certain but Athena was somewhere else.His daughter was still out there and Mia had somehow managed to stay ahead of them.At the hospital, Elena sat silently after the call ended. Her mom remained beside her.For several minutes, neither of them spoke. Then Elena wiped her face.“I can't go back to waiting.”Mom loo

Chapter 453Elena breaks down, “My tiny little baby….. My Athena, I need her with me mom….”"And she will need a strong mother when we find her." Maya said reaching across the bed and taking her daughter's hand and that made Elena finally look up."Don't let this take everything from you." Maya said.Elena's eyes softened, "I feel like I'm trapped between hope and fear."Maya squeezed her hand, "Then stay with hope because fear is not an option now."Elena nodded slowly, "I'll try."That evening, Nathan returned after another meeting with the police. Elena could immediately tell he was exhausted.She looked at him carefully before she asked, "What did they say?""They're still searching.""Nothing?" Elena asked."Nothing confirmed." Nathan answered.Elena lowered her gaze, "The uncertainty is worse than anything I've ever experienced."Nathan sat beside her, "Why?""Because when someone is gone forever, at least there is an answer."Her voice cracked."But Athena is somewhere."She lo

Chapter 455Nathan had looked at me with that soft expression he always wore whenever we talked about our baby."Then she'll carry all three of us wherever she goes."I had laughed. I had been so happy. I was so completely unaware that one day that same necklace would become part of a police investigation.The television continued."The necklace contains a locket bearing the names and photograph of the child's parents. Authorities believe it may provide an important clue in identifying the infant if she is located."My vision blurred. I couldn't keep watching. A sob escaped me.Nathan walked into the room after he finished talking with the police officers.He looked at me. Then he looked at the television.His expression changed."Elena..."I shook my head as tears streamed down my face. "They're showing her….. Look… It’s… our baby…. Our little princess."Nathan sat beside me, "I know.""Everyone knows what she looks like now."My voice trembled."Everyone knows about her birthmark. E

Chapter 457The days continued.Elena barely slept and when she did, she often woke suddenly, reaching instinctively toward the empty space beside her as if Athena might somehow be there.She checked her phone constantly. Every unknown number made her heart jump. Every notification made her hands tremble.Then disappointment followed when it was nothing related to Athena.Her daughter's belongings remained untouched.The tiny clothes. The blankets. The things Elena had once arranged with such excitement.She couldn't bring herself to move any of them. They belonged to Athena and that was enough.One evening, Maya found Elena standing inside Athena's room.She wasn't touching anything. She was simply staring.Maya stopped at the doorway, "Elena."Elena didn't turn, "I keep thinking i'll walk in and find her in her crib.Mom's eyes filled with tears, "It's just a matter of time."Elena finally looked at her, "You really believe that?"Mom stepped closer, "We have to."Elena looked at th

Chapter 459Elena's povI barely slept that night.After Mia's call, I remained awake for hours, sitting in the darkness with my phone resting in my hand. Her voice kept replaying inside my head, especially the words that had shaken me more than anything else.You have one final chance to see your daughter.We had spent two entire weeks searching for Athena. Every lead had collapsed. Every possible sighting had turned into another disappointment. Every morning I woke up hoping someone would call and tell me that they had found her, only to discover that there was still nothing.And now Mia had contacted me herself. She had Athena. At least, that was what I had to believe.I knew Mia was dangerous. I knew she had hated me for years. I knew she had escaped from prison and somehow managed to enter the hospital without anyone realizing who she was. She had taken my baby while I slept and disappeared before anyone could stop her.Yet despite everything I knew about her, one thought kept ov
