No.  The mail messages are not routed anywhere, except to Google's servers.
 (And then a *copy* of it might be retrieved by your computer if you use
POP or IMAP to download those messages instead of using Gmail's web
interface for viewing your email.)

However, a mobile device *can* delete the message on Google's servers, if
it is set up to do that.  So watch out for that.  (That's about all I know
about that.)

Things can prevent messages from reaching your Gmail account, including an
incorrectly addressed message.  It might look like it was addressed to you
but it could have a typo in the address that prevented its delivery.  Also,
some email servers might have (inappropirately) 'blacklisted' Gmail, which
might prevent messages that pass through them, from reaching you.
