Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1628
A white airplane, destined for Marsingfill, glided across the sky. The milky trail left behind was like a brushstroke from an artist. In the first-class cabin was a man in a black coat, reading the headlines of the newspaper with a frown on his face.
“Would you like to have something?” the pretty stewardess queried.
“Just a cup of hot tea, please.”
Soon, a cup of steaming tea was served. The man put down the newspaper, looking as gentle as he always was.
The marriage of Norton Corporation’s president with a mysterious woman in Marsingfill.
After a brief moment, the man sent a text on his phone. Joan, I’m back in the country. You’re the only one I know in Marsingfill. I’ll be reaching around three in the afternoon. I hope I’ll see you around when I get off the plane.
In seconds, his screen lit up again. Okay. I’ll be waiting for you at the first exit.
Joan did not tell Larry about her meeting with Dustin. She knew that if she were to tell him, Larry would suggest that he went along with her.
It would have been fine if she was in the past. However, Joan still remembered the words Dustin told her before he left a year ago.
The airport was crowded, and it did not help that holidays were soon. Many were rushing home to spend time with their families. It took Joan a long while before she could squeeze her way to a place where Dustin could easily spot her.
Right as he went past the security check with his luggage, Dustin noticed the slender figure. She was like a small flower blooming in a bush, blending into the crowd yet not at the same time.
