Gwenda was indeed stuck in a traffic jam.
When she arrived at the airport, it was well past the stipulated time that they had agreed on meeting.
She hurried inside the airport, thinking that Olivier may have left long ago. But to her surprise, Olivier was still waiting for her when she got to the arrival hall. Her heart trembled with trepidation.
After calming herself down, Gwenda went up to him.
"Sorry, I was caught in a traffic jam. Have you been waiting long?"
Hearing her gentle voice, Olivier looked up and saw her flushed face. His heart squeezed with something as he pulled her into his embrace.
"Yeah. I've been waiting for so long that my legs are sore from standing."
"Boss knows how to fawn?"
Otto thought in disbelief as he grumbled silently to himself, "I'm definitely blinded by the sappiness that's going on right now."
Gwenda pressed her lips together in embarrassment and pushed Olivier away. "Shall we go, then?"
"My legs are sore."
Olivier said as he leaned close to her.
As their breaths fanned against each other's faces, Gwenda's heart sped up. She composed herself and tilted her head to look at him. "How about I find a wheelchair for you and I'll push you out that way?"
Olivier was startled and he smiled resignedly. Sighing, he said, "Is it really that hard to get you to be closer to me?"
Gwenda's ears were a little red. "This isn't close enough?"
"I want to get a bit more closer."
Gwenda froze. Her heart felt as if it had been seared by fire to the point that it has gone numb. She felt so embarrassed that she was at a loss of what to do.
Olivier liked this sort of reaction from her, a smug grin appearing on his face. He let go of her for the time being and said, "I brought you a present."
As he said that, he took out a gift box. "Open it. See if you like it or not."
"I'll look at it when I get home."
Gwenda said in a low voice.
"I want you to see it now!"
Gwenda was helpless against Olivier's annoying stubbornness.
"Open it."
Gwenda dawdled with opening the box, and when she did, a beautiful necklace appeared before her.
"Do you like it?" Olivier took out the necklace and personally put it on for Gwenda. "I specifically picked it from the store. The clerk said that this is the latest model and girls like it."
