“The second Pete publicly announced his engagement, the wedding was no longer about him. It was about a bond between the two families.
“What could we possibly do? We don’t even have the slightest bit of influence and power to help him. Also, between the two of us, which one can truly proudly say that they are doing well?”
Although my words were cold, Pete was more than a stranger to me. I couldn’t stand by the sidelines and judge the situation rationally. But no matter what he chose, I would support him..
At that moment, the airport made an announcement about our flight.
I took my luggage from Leo and said, “Let’s go.”
“Darling, she’s the one who doesn’t want my help. It’s not my fault!” Leo teased.
Yasmine’s heart felt heavy, and she did not answer Leo, Instead, she rushed up and walked alongside me. Suddenly, she pointed ahead and asked, “Ari, don’t you think that man over there looks like Nicholas?”
My heart dropped, but I did not see any signs of Nicholas when I looked up. “Where? I don’t think so.”
Yasmine looked panicked, and her complexion had paled comparably. “Maybe I’m too anxious, so everyone looks like Nicholas to me.”
Nicholas was on leave, so Claudia would definitely keep him on a tight leash. She would not have allowed him to leave on his own.

Although I sighed in relief, I did not forget to keep an eye out for the passengers in first class when boarding the plane. I also scanned through the passengers as they boarded until all the seats were filled.
I knew it. I knew Nicholas couldn’t be on the aircraft.
He would also not allow himself to suffer by booking an economy–class ticket. I doubt he would even be able to stretch his legs properly with how long his legs were:
Throughout the flight, the first–class section was exceptionally quiet, and every second felt like torture. Finally, the plane landed, and my phone immediately started ringing.
It was Pete calling to tell her that the people he sent were already waiting outside the airport, waiting to be sent to their hotel.
It was a grand scene to see so many black vans parked in a row. People who didn’t know what was going on might have even assumed that the black vans were here to pick up a celebrity and their team. But in truth, they were only here to pick the three of us up.
A bodyguard came over to guide us to the cars. But just as we were about to get in the car parked in the middle, the car door suddenly opened from the inside and a slender leg stepped out.
Slip the
faltered the second our eyes met, and he looked like he wanted to cry?
