It hurt a little when Fiona was grabbed by Joey. Yet she was much relieved when Joey finally made a request, “Great idea. It's good to have someone to go back to at home.”
Joey was a lucky girl, unlike her. Even if she wanted to go home, there was no one to go back to.
Joey had to get her passport first before she could go back home. She would have to contact Allen, because her passport was still packed in the suitcase in the hotel room.
She finally sent a message to Allen, asking him to meet up with her in the airport.
Joey looked very haggard, so Fiona had to put some makeup on her and then picked up a beautiful dress from her own wardrobe.
Fiona was undoubtedly someone of good taste. Under her magical touch, Joey looked vigorous and beautiful again. There was no sign of decadence at all.
However, Fiona was taller and her dress was a bit too big for Joey. Fortunately, it was a casual dress, which brought an easygoing vibe to it.
At last, Fiona drove Joey to the airport.
Allen had been anxiously waiting for her at the airport along with Martin and Chance.
The three of them instantly went over to greet Joey, since they hadn’t seen her for a couple of days.
Joey looked up at Allen and trembled. She suddenly felt the urge to run away when she was grabbed by Fiona next to her, “Pluck up some courage to face reality. It will pass, I promise.”
In a moment of hesitation, Allen had run toward her and pulled her into his arms, “Baby, how could you have disappeared for days without talking to me on the phone? Don’t you know that I’ve been worried sick about you? Please don't do that ever again.”
God knows how much he had suffered these days. He had missed her so much, day and night. He thought he would be mad at her, but all his anger was gone at the sight of her. All he felt was love and happiness.
Joey burst into tears in his warm and familiar arms. She hugged him back with trembling hands. He was too wonderful a man to let go easily.
It was a shame that she didn't deserve him.
