After the plane landed, Charlie and Loreen got off the plane together.
As Charlie did not have any luggage checked in, he did not have to wait to pick up his luggage. However, since Loreen was a big beauty after all, she usually brought a lot of clothes, cosmetics, and skin care products with her when she travels. 7
Since it would be extremely easy for cosmetics and skin care products to exceed the weight capacity, Loreen had no choice but to check in her luggage.
After getting off the plane, she could not leave the airport directly like Charlie. She had to go to the baggage claim area to wait for her luggage. 3
So, Loreen hurriedly asked Charlie, "Charlie, how do you plan to leave later?”
Charlie replied, "I will go out and grab a cab."
Loreen hurriedly said, "Then, why don't you wait for m e instead and we can leave together then? It so happens that my family will be driving her to pick me up. I can drop you off at your destination later." 6
Charlie smiled before he waved his hand and said, "N o, Loreen. I'm in a rush right now so I have to leave first." 3
Loreen replied helplessly, "Okay. Then, let’s make an
appointment to meet up another day. Don't forget that you have already made me a promise to have a meal together with me.” 7
"Okay." Charlie smiled slightly as he said, "You can wait for your luggage then. I will leave first. We can make an appointment to meet up another day." 7
After bidding farewell to Doreen, Charlie walked out of Eastcliff International Airport alone.
After walking out, Charlie did not have time to sigh or reminisce about the situation at all. Instead, he was heading straight to the cab stand to queue and wait for a cab.
"Okay then." Charlie replied helplessly as he asked her, "Let's go and meet Uncle and Aunt soon. Did you drive here?"
Quinn nodded and said, "Yes! I parked my car in the parking lot. Let's go and pick up the car together then!"
As she spoke, Quinn hugged Charlie’s arm as she skipped and bounced as she led Charlie to the parking lot.
Quinn drove a very humble and old Volvo here today. After getting into the car, Quinn took off her cap before she said embarrassedly, "Brother Charlie, I'm so sorry but I drove a very shabby car to come and pick you up today. The main reason is because the paparazzo knows most of our family's cars, so I have t o drive this old car out to pick you up. Please do not despise it.” 7
Charlie smiled as he nodded and said, "It's not as if you don't know what kind of life I've been living in the past. I've told you before that I used to live in an orphanage. After coming out from the orphanage, I worked at a construction site. After that, my wife’s grandfather arranged for me to attend university for a year. I’ve already gone through a lot of hardships in life. I wouldn't mind it at all even if you told me that I would have to walk all the way to your house." 9
Quinn looked at Charlie before she sighed and said softly, "Brother Charlie, you've really suffered a lot for s o many years."
