Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 539

Janina was both baffled and furious. "I grabbed the wrong suitcase. This is a man's luggage."

She couldn't for the life of her figure out how the suitcases had been swapped.

Or rather, taken by mistake.

She guessed she must have grabbed the wrong one from the baggage carousel after getting off the plane.

"Oh! You think you mixed them up at the airport?"

It was a common mistake at airports. Many suitcases looked identical, so it wasn't surprising.

Janina glanced down at the luggage.

It was identical to hers, right down to the combination lock.

The code was Liam and Joy's birthday. Could it really be such a coincidence?

She suddenly remembered bumping into a man at the airport. Her head had been fuzzy from the impact, and she'd forgotten her suitcase until the man handed it to her.

That must have been it. They must have accidentally taken each other's luggage.

Janina bent down and opened the suitcase again, searching for any clue about its owner.

But there was nothing.

Janina nodded distractedly. "I must have grabbed the wrong one at the airport."

"If you can't find a contact number, you should call the police," West said, having overheard the conversation. He came downstairs and glanced at the suitcase.

"It really is identical. Looks like you'll have to get a new style."

Janina zipped the suitcase shut, feeling helpless. "Black is just too common. Next time, I'm getting a green one."

She picked up her phone to call the police. The only way to figure this out was to check the airport's security footage; the police would be the fastest route.

But before she could dial, an unknown number called her.

She pressed the answer key. "Hello?"

Janina waved her hand dismissively. "Dinner's not necessary. As long as we have our luggage back, everything's fine. I have to get back to work. Goodbye!"

Janina practically walked away as she spoke, afraid he might try to insist.

She didn't eat with strangers, especially not men.

Besides, she couldn't shake the feeling that behind the man's composed exterior, there was an unreadable depth in his eyes.

He was the kind of person who was hard to figure out.

Of course, she couldn't judge someone based on a single meeting.

What Janina didn't know was that as she walked away, the man watched her retreating figure, his eyes narrowing as a meaningful smile played on his lips.

When Janina got home, she opened her suitcase and saw that everything was neatly arranged, with no signs of having been disturbed. Only then did she relax.

From inside, she took out the gifts she had bought for Liam and Joy—crystal balls.
