Chapter 925
“Why are you still sitting here? Disperse.” Damien said with a peeved look on his face. What had been a wonderful reunion had been spoiled by Norah’s underhanded manipulation, and that was the result she wanted to see. In the car, Jared looked at Nicole saying nothing. He believed Nicole was not that kind of person. Nicole suddenly stopped the car at the side of the road and looked at Jared.
“I won’t drive you back to the villa.” Jared looked Nicole in the eyes.
“Where are you going?”
At first, Nicole did not plan to tell him, but they had gotten so upset tonight that she was afraid he would worry about her if she did not tell him again. “I’m going abroad to take care of some things.”
“Abroad? Right now?” Jared did not ask what was going on but looked at her with a serious face.
“Yeah, the flight is in a little while.”
He knew he could not stop her and that she must have something urgent to deal with. He reached out and stroked her hair. “How soon will you be back?” Nicole took a long breath.
“I don’t know.”
Jared glanced at her and kissed her on the lips for a long while. “Take care. Remember, there’s someone in this city who will always be waiting for you.”
Still in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Jared likewise turned on the flashlight of his cell phone, and the two gazed at each other as if they could communicate telepathically. The plane took off into the sky, and Jared’s gaze went up with the plane until it was out of sight. On the plane, Nicole clutched her phone with both hands. Suddenly a feeling of solicitude, which she had never had before , hit her. In the past, she was brave and fearless , going anywhere with no worry. She wondered what was wrong with her this time, questioning this feeling, which she was not supposed to have, and suspecting if it was because of him.
She turned on her cell phone again, looking at the photos they took together at the beach, almost heartbroken. Carl had received Nicole’s flight information and came to the airport to pick her up. Nicole had just walked out of the airport when she saw Carl. They gave each other a hug.
“It has been a long while.”
“It has been a long while. Get in the car.” Carl got into the driver’s seat and started the car to drive away from the airport.
Nicole checked out the hotel room to make sure that it was safe before taking out her laptop.
