It was a first for Adonis, a careless man, that he couldn't get his mind off a lovely lady like that.
"Lucian, you look good today." Adonis looked down at his phone. Candace still did not reply him, so he also picked up the chopsticks and began to eat lunch.
He decided to have lunch before continuing to wait.
Lucian nodded and did not say anything else as he continued to eat.
But Adonis had no appetite at all.
After another 20 minutes, his mobile finally vibrated.
Adonis quickly picked it up and glanced at it.
[Mr. Church, I have already bought a ticket. Tomorrow evening, I will arrive at Country A's airport.]
Adonis laughed. All the anxiety he had just felt disappeared, "No wonder she hasn't replied to my messages for so long, she's gone to book a flight."
Adonis seemed to be talking to himself as he quickly replied.
"Miss Aiken, I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow night."
"Thank you, Mr. Church. See you tomorrow! :)"
Adonis couldn't stop laughing.
Lucian laid down the chopsticks in his hands and got up to make himself a cup of coffee. Then he sat down on the sofa, folded his long legs up and leaned back gracefully with his eyes closed.
Adonis knew Lucian's character, so he didn't mind him. At the moment he thought even the semi-cold takeaway was a delicacy on earth.
He gorged himself on the rest of the dish.
With a full stomach, Adonis felt incredibly satisfied. The thought of seeing Candace tomorrow night made him even more excited.
He gracefully picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, glancing back at Lucian.
He said with a smile, "Lucian, try to deal with anything in the morning and at night. Give me some downtime during the day. I want to date with a girl."
"Up to you," Lucian responded casually and didn't say anything else.
Adonis sat down beside him and looked at the cold expression on Lucian's handsome face. Amelia's departure was really upsetting for him. Two weeks had passed and he still hadn't pulled himself together.
"Lucian, don't feel too bad. Amelia left for your own good too."
Adonis was a casual person, and his way of comforting people was also very direct.
They were also very sad when they looked at Lucian's despair during this time.
Lucian suddenly opened his eyes and glanced coldly at Adonis.
Was it for his own good that she had left? Why was she so unconvinced that he was capable of protecting her?
The thought of her, so innocent and thin, being out on her own made his heart ache as if he had been cut hard by something.
The thought of their past started to break him down.
Amelia, you were really something.
Everyone said you left for my own good. But I didn't think so. For me, your departure was as if I had been banished to hell.
Lucian's hands hung on both sides powerlessly. He tried all he could to find any trace of her. But it was as if she had vanished into thin air.
