Matthew didn't care about Armand who was into gossip. He said a few words to his daughter and went back to the house.
Amanda contacted Abbott and immediately bought a flight ticket.
Sitting on the plane, Abbott had no idea what had happened yet.
"Amanda, where are you taking me in such a hurry?"
Amanda was looking down at the address Casimir sent her on the mobile phone. Without looking up, she said, "You'll know when you get there."
"How mysterious." Abbott leaned back and asked blandly, "Then tell me whether it's something good or bad."
Amanda thought. "It's something good…But not quite, it's something bad too..."
"So is it a good thing or a bad thing? Tell me clearly." Abbott sat up straight. "Why are you stammering?"
"I’m not stammering, it’s just I don't know how to say it. I think the person should tell you himself." After all, she was an outsider and there were many things she was not very clear of, so she thought it was better for them to meet and talk.
She didn't have to say much at this time.
Abbott waved his hand. "Fine, since you know this number, it must be your father who told you. There must be something happening, otherwise, he won't tell you this number."
Amanda looked at him with a touch of melancholy. "Abbott, do you have anything unforgettable in your life?"
Abbott half narrowed his eyes and recalled his past. He said at length, "There are no unforgettable things, but there is regret."
"What regret?" Amanda asked.
Abbott drawled, "A woman."
"The woman you like?" she continued asking.
Abbott stopped. "Quit minding adults’ business."
Amanda pouted. "I’m already an adult too."
"You’re still a child in your parents' eyes." Abbott covered himself with a blanket. "I'm going to sleep."
Amanda didn't bother him.
When the plane landed, they got off the plane and saw Casimir standing at the exit waiting for them.
"I'm here." he raised his hand for fear that Amanda couldn't see him.
