“Emma’s in there.” Eva Taylor lowered her eyes to the ground and whispered, “She wants to go to Alex Brown, but I thought it would be better to let you know… to go after her.”
Joe Wright changed his previous subdued pace and raced toward the airport lobby.
In the large space, travelers pass through, he frowned tightly, eagerly looking among them.
The radio blared and a flight took off.
He knew that he was too late.
Full of despondency, he walked out of the airport and, for the first time in his life, felt the sunlight so gray.
“Here, eat something sweet, the mood will be better.”
An ice cream appeared in front of him, and when he looked over, Eva Taylor was looking at him with a reassuring smile.
He had never experienced such a focused gaze on Emma Rosy before.
Perhaps uncomfortable by his stare, Eva Taylor took the initiative to explain: “I’m not gloating ah, Emma’s flight time I do not know, has been as soon as possible to remind you, you do not…”
The words were not finished, but suddenly fell into a not quite warm but solid enough hug.
Eva Taylor froze, her brain seemed to blow through a hurricane, only blank.
“… Joe Wright, I know you’re in a bad mood, it’s not impossible to let you hold… a hug, but…”
“Why?”
Joe Wright buried his head in her hair, his voice dull and dripping with desperately suppressed pain.
“Do you want to ask why Emma left without a word, with total disregard for your feelings?” Eva Taylor sighed and raised her hand to caress his back, “Silly, it’s because she cared about you that she did it.”
“Joe , I can help you.” Embraced by the person she likes, even if she knows that the tenderness does not belong to her, Eva Taylor sinks down: “I will stay by your side until you are willing to love me.”
A heart fleeing from the loved one, with the warmth within reach.
Joe Wright was so tired that he gave up his reason and followed his instincts to make a choice.
“I can’t let go yet.” He stepped back a few inches and said, word for word, in Eva Taylor’s rapidly dimming eyes, “But if you don’t mind, I’ll try to let go and work my way closer to you.”
Fireworks exploded in her ears, Eva Taylor’s eyes were illuminated by the light, she could not believe it, and carefully confirmed to Joe Wright: “You mean… willing to give me together?”
Joe Wright smiled, and then appraised nodded.
“I’m finally off the single!”
Eva Taylor cheered, jumping and jumping to express joy, suddenly remembered something, and then rushed into Joe Wright’s arms, muttering excitedly under his breath: “No, it’s so hard to catch you, I have to hug for a while longer.”
The old Wright Family home.
In the living room, Eva Taylor sat beside Joe Wright, holding his hand tightly, as if afraid he would escape.
When she saw Master Wright coming downstairs, she hurriedly released her hand again, distanced herself from him, and bowed her head haughtily.
“You…”
“Shh!”
Joe Wright just opened his mouth, it was interrupted by Eva Taylor’s gesture: “We have just established a relationship, or to pay attention to the impact is good.”
Mind the repercussions?
Who was the person who hugged him outside the airport for ten minutes and insisted on holding hands to get the car?
Master Wright had walked into the living room, and Joe Wright just raised his eyebrows and let her have her way.
The news of their love affair made Master Wright glow, and the sickness that had reigned for so many days had subsided, and the way he looked at Eva Taylor was like looking at his granddaughter-in-law.
“Good! You are together, grandpa is satisfied!”
Master Wright put a wooden box on the coffee table, a kind smile: “Eva ah, open to see if you like it. Last time we were in a hurry and Keira was still sick, so Grandpa didn’t even have time to prepare a gift for you, so this time we must make up for it.”
Eva Taylor shyly refused, but finally, under Joe Wright’s encouraging gaze, she opened the wooden box with a red face.
Although she didn’t know how to appreciate, the jade bracelet must be very good if Master Wright gave it to her personally.
She took the jade bracelet back into the box: “Thank you, grandpa.”
Master Wright waved his hand, told her not to be polite, and warmly left her to eat at home, before excusing himself to rest and get upstairs.
Just now Joe Wright called to say that Emma Rosy had left the country without a word, and Keira was right next to him, so she ran into the bedroom after hearing that, and didn’t open the door no matter who knocked.
Opening the door, the housekeeper left with the spare key, and Master Wright, on crutches, entered the bedroom.
Keira was crying on the bed, “Mommy doesn’t want me anymore, and Daddy doesn’t care about me, they’re both big liars!”
Master Wright sat on the edge of the bed and patted her delicate shoulders, unable to say anything to persuade her, and with tears in his eyes.
“Good girl, no matter where they go, you still have your great-grandfather with you.”
Master Wright tucked Keira in and repeated the words slowly until she was tired of crying and fell asleep with a tear-stained face.
City B.
Inside the hotel room, Emma Rosy is drowsy in her sleep and doesn’t want to be woken up by the vibrating sound of her cell phone.
Two hours ago, shortly after the plane she was on took off, the announcement of an imminent landing was broadcasted on the radio, and after disembarking she and a group of passengers were sent to this hotel arranged by the airline to await the outcome.
Was it really fate that she would not be able to meet Alex Brown?
After resting her eyes for a moment, she got out of bed and prepared to go to the restaurant to find something to eat.
But then her backpack disappeared!
She remembered very clearly that the airline had arranged for a double room, so she had put her backpack at the end of her bed before she went to sleep for convenience.
Could it be, she jerked her head up towards the opposite side and looked –
The bed was empty, and the girl she was living with was gone! She hurried to the front desk and asked.
“What exactly was in her hand…” the receptionist frowned and thought: “I didn’t care, there was quite a lot of stuff anyway.”
