Upon hearing this, Tilda became uncomfortable!
The reason Tilda was able to speak calmly with Johnny on the plane was out of consideration for how he had taken care of her during their time in Sweden. But now, all that was left for her was disdain!
“You eavesdropped on my phone call?!”
“Do you really need to eavesdrop? Your voice is loud enough for everyone at the airport to hear that you’re going to a man’s place to sleep with him!” Johnny’s words were as harsh as his anger.
Initially, no one was paying attention to them, but with this shouting match, many people turned to look, their expressions filled with curiosity.
The humiliation in his words would make any woman furious!
Tilda gritted her teeth tightly. “Johnny, don’t you dare say that again!”
“Am I not speaking the truth?! You just said on the phone that you’re going to stay at his place tonight and even to see your parents together! Tilda, you clearly have a boyfriend! So why did you sleep with me when you were in Sweden?!”
As soon as Johnny finished speaking, Tilda stepped forward and slapped him hard across the face.
“Johnny, you make me feel sick!”
She spat, turned on her heel, and ran away.
Tears streamed down her face.
This feeling of being publicly humiliated was something Tilda had never experienced before! Although her family wasn’t wealthy, she had a decent life. As the only daughter, her parents’ love was all directed at her, and she had been doted on since childhood. Plus, she was quick-witted-no one had ever said such cruel things to her!
Johnny was stunned by the slap!
He hadn’t expected Tilda to hit him.
But the pain jolted him back to reality. His anger dissipated somewhat, and he began to notice the mocking and entertained looks of the onlookers around him.
Damn it! What had he just said?!
Although Johnny had a reputation for being a ladies’ man, he had never lost his composure like this before! He had never had such a public fallout with an ex-girlfriend. Even when some would cling to him, he’d just avoid them or pay them off to go away.
Why did everything feel different since he met Tilda?
Frustrated, Johnny kicked a nearby pillar. Watching Tilda’s figure grow more distant, he clenched his fist, hesitated for a few seconds, and ultimately decided to chase after her!
This absolutely couldn’t stand!
He could apologize or negotiate later. If he didn’t get Tilda’s contact information today, they would completely lose touch! Johnny couldn’t let that happen!
…
Tilda cried all the way to the baggage claim area, waiting for her luggage.
After standing there for a while, she finally calmed down a bit and pulled out her hat and mask from her bag to put on!
What Johnny shouted earlier was so embarrassing that she didn’t want to be pointed at by others!
After being berated by Johnny, Tilda could only reflect on her own issues! Indeed, she had initiated getting involved with him and suggested they get intimate-who could she blame?
Now all she could do was avoid provoking him again!
While she was waiting for her luggage, Malcolm called again.
“Still not out?”
“Not yet, but it should be soon.”
Malcolm was so perceptive that he immediately sensed something was off. “Tilda, are you crying?”
At his words, the tears Tilda had just managed to hold back began to well up again. She could only feign nonchalance. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to explain her red eyes later. “Oh, I’m crying because I’m about to see you! I’m so happy!”
