During class, Kara stared at the blackboard in a daze. Suddenly, Liz knocked Kara’s elbow, so Kara turned around in confusion.
“Kara, is Jamya calling you?”
Kara looked out and saw Jamya waving at her outside the classroom. So, she blinked, stayed low, and left the classroom through the back door.
“Jamya, why are you here?”
“I got good and bad news.”
Kara thought back to the last time when Jamya said this, and then something bad happened. This made her a little afraid.
“Jamya, you didn’t quarrel with Ayden again, did you?”
Jamya’s mouth twitched and she knocked on her forehead, “This is not my thing. It is yours.”
“What?” Kara was even more curious.
“The good news is that the results of the competition we participated in have been published. You are second.”
Kara opened her eyes wide in surprise. Her amber eyes shone in the sunlight, “Is this competition that Master Larry asked us to participate in?”
Yes, the bad news is that the organizer has arranged that the award ceremony will be held in Country R. Because of the tight schedule, you will be leaving in the afternoon.
Moreover, Master Larry said that the organizer would give you a week as an opportunity to meet more masters.”
Kara was stunned. When she realized Jamya wouldn’t attend the ceremony, she asked doubtfully, “Jamya, did you not win the prize?”
Jamya shrugged indifferently, “I didn’t, but it doesn’t mean that my work is bad. It can only mean that my work is not liked by the judges.”
For Jamya to have such an open-minded idea, Kara was surprised for a few seconds, but soon she hugged Jamya’s arm and acted like a spoiled child, promising that she would bring Jamya a gift if she got the prize.
Jamya nodded with a smile. She came to find Kara, so Kara could pack up immediately as Kara should leave for Country R in the afternoon.
“Don’t worry about the leave. I was about to book a plane ticket, so I came to inform you.”
Kara nodded and shared the good news with Liz and Hazel.
“Wow, Kara, you’re so awesome. You even won a prize in world-class competition. You, my roommate, are so awesome. I feel ashamed.” Liz looked envious.
Kara chuckled, “Liz, you’re also great. We all need to continue to work hard and move forward to our goal.”
“Let’s go!”
Hazel smiled and clenched her fists, cheering themselves up.
Among them, Kara had joined Master Larry’s studio, whose resources were abundant.
But they clearly recognized that they were not competitors, but good friends.
They were young, and they all knew there was always someone bigger than them.
Even if Liz and Hazel would occasionally envy Kara’s success, this would turn into a driving force to advance, and they would be happy for Kara.
Kara smiled and said goodbye to Liz and Hazel. She did not call Mason to pick her up, instead, she took a bus back to the villa.
When she was packing, she looked at her messy luggage in a muddle.
Usually, when she couldn’t pick up her package, James would guide her, or simply he would pack it up again.
However, she had to learn to be independent. She could no longer rely on him. She gritted her teeth and patiently folded her clothes one by one. If she could not do it well, she would do it a second time.
She secretly told herself, “Don’t find excuses when you think you can’t do it. When James learned these things, he didn’t do it overnight either, so you should take your time.”
It was three hours later when she finished packing up her luggage. She lay on the bed, exhausted.
Thinking that she had not told James about the good news yet.
She immediately took out her phone and called him, but calling twice, James did not pick up. Disappointment filled her chest and made her hard to breathe.
She found an excuse for him. Maybe he was too busy with work. When he saw the messages, he might call her back.
When she arrived at the studio, she first went to greet Master Larry. When she left, Jadon followed her.
“Jadon, what’s the matter?” she asked, looking at him suspiciously.
“Didn’t Master Larry tell you that the organizer invited me as an honored guest?” Jadon raised his eyebrows, clenched his fists, and chuckled.
“What?”
Kara looked at her in surprise. She had never taken a plane before. She was worried that she would be afraid when she went to Country R alone. If Jadon went with her, they could look after each other.
“I’ll drive to the airport.”
Jadon took Kara’s suitcase from her and put it in his car. He opened the door for her and invited her to get in.
“Thank you.”
Kara was grateful. After getting in the car, she heard someone call her name.
“Kara, wait.”
It was Jamya who suddenly called her. She quickly got off the car and ran to Jamya.
“Jamya, what else do you want to teach me?”
Jamya was worried that Kara would be afraid as Kara went abroad for the first time, so she taught Kara a lot of tips.
“This is for you. Don’t be so fussy. You’re just a little girl. Tread carefully. Kara, take care of yourself, do you understand?”
When Jamya hugged Kara, she stuffed something into Kara’s pocket. Kara was moved and nodded with a smile.
“Jamya, wait for me to bring the trophy back.”
Kara smiled as she got into the car, but it was hard to say goodbye.
Seeing that her eyes were red, Jadon comforted her, “Kara, you are just going abroad for the award. You will come back. Don’t be so nervous.”
“Yes, I know. But girls are always somewhat cheesy.” Kara dried the tear in the corners of her eyes and restrained her emotions, trying to reveal a smile.
At this time, James didn’t want her, but Jamya considered her. How could she not be moved?
Jadon smiled and shook his head. He then chatted with her about other topics.
To let Kara relax, he told her what was going on in the little golden retriever. Kara was fascinated by it, and they reached the airport smoothly.
When Kara got on the plane and saw that NK City was getting farther and farther, she felt somewhat panicked. She took a deep breath and wanted to go back.
“Kara, what happened to you?” Jadon looked at her in surprise.
“Jadon, I, I, I seem to have something important left.” Kara frowned and stared anxiously at the window.
“Kara, the plane has taken off and we can’t go back. What do you need? When we get to Country R, I will buy it for you. Is that okay?” Jadon felt embarrassed.
“…” Kara had to return to her seat, letting out a mocking laugh.
She was already on the plane, so why was she so cheesy?
Didn’t James ask her to be independent?
This was the perfect opportunity for her to learn to depend on herself.
However, when she thought that she couldn’t see him in the next few days and he did not pick up the call, she felt very upset.
She missed him.
In the past, they were always together. Even if James went abroad, he would often call her.
At the same time, in the president’s office of the SA Group,
James finished his meeting. Because he hadn’t slept for a few nights, he was very tired.
He took out his phone and saw that there was a missed call. He checked it and found it was Kara who called him.
He did not call her directly but called Nolan to enter his office to ask about Kara’s situation.
