Evie rushed off in her car towards the airport.
She was supposed to have arrived home an hour ago.
Little did she know that she encountered a series of accidents on her way back, causing a traffic jam for over an hour.
Just as she entered the highway leading to the airport, Aron called her.
"Mrs. Timberlake..."
"Aron, I'm already on my way to the airport. Can you wait for me? I got stuck in a major traffic jam on my way back from the construction site." Evie said, crying.
"You went to the airport?" Aron sounded surprised. "Aren't you at Mia's house?"
"Yeah, I came to grab the car keys!" Evie replied, "Anyway, just wait for me!"
"But I'm already home," Aron said helplessly.
"Wasn't your flight scheduled to land at 8 o'clock?"
"It got rescheduled," Aron chuckled with a hint of frustration. "Hurry back."
Evie said nothing.
She quickly changed her route and started heading back.
"Don't worry. I'll wait for you at the neighborhood entrance." Aron sensed Evie's agitation and calmly reassured her, "I know you had a tiring day at the construction site, and I wanted to surprise you by coming back early. You don't have to rush back and forth to the airport. It's too exhausting, right?"
Evie snorted, "But I'm already rushing now..."
"My bad!" Aron quickly admitted his mistake. "How about taking you to your favorite restaurant?"
"Deal!" Evie was immediately soothed.
Aron hung up the phone and glanced at Chubby.
"Have you gained a little weight?" Aron bent down, supporting Chubby's armpits and weighing it. "It seems like our little caregiver has taken good care of you."
Chubby pouted and let out an unhappy meow.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup
I am at Chapter 550 and there are almost 2 stories in 1. Aron and Evie's story could very well have been made into another story. Such a waste of time because I am reading for Byron and Athena, not Evie and Aron...
Is there no new updates after this one?...
