Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 1166

Yanny’s eyes were reddened. She walked quickly and determinedly toward the boarding gate.

Once on the plane, Yanny sat in business class. She could not calm down for a very long time until a girl next to her ran over with a polaroid camera in her hands. She passed Yanny a photo.

Yanny was slightly stunned. She looked at the photo.

In the photo, she was hugging Shayne in the airport. The photographer captured the lighting and the angle well. The photo told a beautiful story.

The girl explained, “I’m so sorry, I bumped into you guys previously. I felt that you two were too good-looking so I took a picture. I did not expect that we would be on the same flight so I thought of giving this photo to you.”

Yanny lowered her head and looked at the photo in her hand. Her pale lips smiled.

She was afraid that this was the last hug she would have with Shayne.

Noticing Yanny’s silence, the girl asked in concern, “Are you angry that I secretly took a photo of you?”

Yanny lightly smiled and shook her head, “No, I’m not angry. Thank you. I’m keeping the photo. You took a great one.”

“Really?” The girl smiled happily. “This time, I’m going to Empress Tree City to sight-see. I heard about the mountains and the rivers there. The scenery is amazing. I want to take more beautiful photos.”

Yanny did not say anything else. This girl looked youthful and pretty. She was bubbly as well. Sitting next to Yanny, she always wanted to talk to Yanny.

The girl took a few peeks at Yanny. She said to Yanny in a fangirl manner, “You’re so pretty.”

“You look good too.” Yanny was feeling down, she did not really want to talk.

The girl was way too curious. She asked with concern, “Can I ask? The man in the photo with you just now, were you two saying goodbye?”

Yanny was stunned for a while. She did not deny it and said, “I think so.”

The girl said pitifully, “Both of you look like a good match. It was saddening to watch you both part ways. I stood there and could not help but watch you two for a long time. Sigh… My teacher was right. You can see much more sincere love in the airport than wedding halls, you can hear more sincere prayers outside the hospital operation theaters than churches.”

Yanny looked at this girl, who was young yet full of insights. She could not help but say, “The hugs at the airport are probably the last ones, while the prayers in the hospitals usually do not come true as well. Love is just a joke.”

Yanny choked and laughed. Tears fell from the corner of her eyes.

The girl comforted her determinedly, saying, “But the earth is round. If there is enough love, you will surely meet again. Sister, you’re so gorgeous so who would dare make you cry.”

After that, Yanny chuckled while tears fell. She said to her, “Thank you.”

…

When Yanny reached Empress Tree City, she took a taxi and headed to Carhill County, Fairy Creek Village.

The scenery throughout the entire journey was stunning. It was full of greenery. The car passed by a dam as well. The air was fresh and it was a cloudless day. The place was extremely suitable for a holiday.

No wonder Peter Brook decided he would stay here permanently. It was a quiet and beautiful place to create, like being in paradise.

Carhill County was small. Soon, she reached the entrance of Fairy Creek Village.

The taxi stopped. “Gorgeous lady, we’ve reached Fairy Creek. You walk in from here.”

“Okay. Thanks.”

Yanny carried her bag and a small suitcase and headed into the village.

Fairy Creek Village is a holiday resort. The individual villas in the village are all placed in a uniform Japanese style. Yanny looked at the information and found Peter’s exact address. She went door-to-door.

101, Fairy Creek Village.

This was it.

Yanny put her luggage down and stepped forward to knock on the door.

She knocked for a long time only to have a young man in black-framed spectacles idly walk out of the house. He stretched lazily and walked over groggily before he opened the door.

“Who are you?”

“Hello, are you the author Peter Brook?”

The young man raised his eyebrows. “Hmm. that would be me. Who are you?”

Yanny took a name card out from her bag. She said, “I’m from Move Media. My name is Lynn Frank. I’m here to talk about the intellectual property rights to your Yellow River series…”

“I’m not selling.”

When Peter heard that she was from some media company, he immediately refused and slammed the door shut.

Yanny was rejected. However, she has also made the mental preparations for a long battle. She calmly walked down the stairs when the door was opened once more.

Peter stood on higher ground. He said arrogantly, “Wake me up at seven tomorrow to work. I’m going to give you another chance to convince me since you look so pretty.”

Yanny was stunned. She was a little taken aback.

“What? You want to buy the rights yet you show no sincerity?”

Yanny smiled. “Of course not. I’ll be here at seven tomorrow to wake you up.”

Peter shut the door once more.

Yanny’s confidence grew a little.

There was always a silver lining when life seemed bleak.

Yanny checked into the Fairy Creek Village’s holiday villa. After a day of traveling, she was exhausted.

After the miscarriage two years back, her energy, be it physical or mental, was not like before. Every time she traveled, she would easily get tired.

The Fairy Creek Village was quiet. The rooms were quiet too. A quiet Yanny did not know what to do.

She turned on the television in her room and let it play at random. Then, she went to the bathroom and prepared herself a bath. She planned to have a soak.

On the television, the weather forecast was broadcasting the current weather at Fairy Creek Village.

“It is expected that in the coming week, there will be blue rainstorm alerts to red rainstorm alerts locally, which can easily trigger mudslides by the mountains. Please try to travel less and safely in the near future…"

…

The next morning, Yanny arrived on time at Peter’s villa.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the afternoon, Yanny and Peter drove out of Fairy Creek Village. They used a GPS to guide them to other towns.

The weather was not great. There were loads of dark clouds hanging over them. It was dark and overwhelming. It seemed like the weather was about to change.

Yanny said worryingly, “The weather is not too great today, let’s go back earlier later.”

Peter was more spontaneous and capricious, replying, “So what if the weather is bad? Just let it be. I’ve finished my work for today. I want to be out and about. Don’t worry so much.”

Yanny did not say anything else to spoil the mood.

In the evening, Yanny and Peter had dinner at a manor in a tea plantation by the mountainside when it started pouring.

The rain was extremely heavy. It was a bit abnormal.

Yanny’s handphone popped out the local news.

“Fairy Creek Village has been attacked by rainstorms. There has been a mudslide there. I don’t think we can go back tonight.”

Peter looked at the rain outside of the window, “Thank goodness there are places to stay here at the manor. Let’s just stay here tonight.

Yanny could not help but worry. “The rain here is so heavy. I don’t know if we’ll be affected here as well.”

Yanny stood by the window, looking at the dark skies and heavy rain outside. At that moment, she wanted to leave her final words.

However, what would she write and to whom?

At that moment, the person that appeared in her mind was Shayne.

…

During the night.

Shayne was turning around in his sleep. He could not sleep.

Henry called and Shayne picked up.

“Hello, Master Shayne. Was the place that madam went to Carhill County, Fairy Creek Village?”

Shayne sensed something was up. He furrowed his brows and asked, “What happened?”

“I heard the news saying that there was a red storm alert at Fairy Creek Village. A serious mudslide incident happened there. I don’t know whether madam…”

“Book a flight ticket for me to Empress Tree City now!”

“But…”

“No buts!”

Henry had not finished talking when Shayne hung up. He quickly got up and changed. Then, he drove and rushed to the airport.

On the way, Shayne anxiously called Yanny’s phone. However, Yanny did not have a signal.
