Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 403

The three of them nodded obediently. Little Carl, perched on his booster seat, wobbled his head and declared, “I wanna go back to Goldenvale Town too. I’m gonna go with you, Mommy.”

He was swinging his tiny legs, so cute!

I chuckled and said, “This time, I have to handle an emergency, so Carl, you can't come along, okay? How about next time?”

His protest was immediate. “No, I wanna go with you now!”

After I coaxed him into finishing his meal, Probert and Helga took him off to play.

I quietly filled in my mom too, and though she was a bit shocked, she didn't press for details, just reminded me over and over to stay safe.

Exchanging glances with Hannah, we quickly grabbed our essentials and headed out the door.

Instead of going straight to the airport, we made a detour to the Wood Manor.

Ronan had no news yet but had sent out numerous people; he was confident we’d hear something soon.

I told him, “In that case, I won’t wait around. Hannah and I are heading to the airport now. I need to get back to Goldenvale Town!”

Upon hearing this, Logan pondered for a moment before telling Ronan, “Ronan, keep an eye on things here. I’ll go back to Goldenvale Town with them. It might save some time.”

Ronan thought it over and nodded, “Alright! I’ll handle things here; you go back with them.”

He also called over Larkin and gave him a few quiet instructions, to which Larkin nodded incessantly.

Logan gestured to me, and we were off, heading straight to the airport.

Ronan quickly arranged a car. Knowing my temperament, he emphasized, “Don’t act rashly. Follow Logan’s lead.”

After giving Logan a few more instructions, we dashed to the airport without delay.

Landing in Goldenvale Town, to my surprise, it was Dalton who came to pick us up.

As if he’d read my mind, as soon as we were in the car, we sped off, and he explained, “I came to pick you up to save time and get the details firsthand.”
