Chapter 296
Vicky wondered if it was her, but she felt this tingling feeling that someone was watching her as soon as she entered the airport. Everytime she looked back, however, nothing could confirm her suspicion.
After a few times, she started thinking she was going crazy.
Meanwhile, the driver-hired by Sebastian-who sent her to the airport checked in and retrieved the air ticket for Vicky. He then brought her to go through security and entered the departure hall.
Once Vicky boarded the plane, he called Sebastian. “Mister Mills. Miss Shaw boarded the plane.” i
Vicky felt like everything was surreal even as the plane took off. She sat in the window seat and looked out the window at the clouds. ’Am I …truly leaving this place?’
Theoretically speaking, after all the preparations, it was not weird that she could leave without a hitch, especially since Tyler was not suspicious of anything. However, she just could not ease her tense mind. Instead, she thought it was an easy job for Tyler to order the plane to turn back to Stoneford City if he wanted.
Eight hours later, the plane landed at Lovian’s airport. Unlike Stoneford City, Lovian was not a country with four seasons. It was not a big country, and its land was surrounded by the ocean. Due to its geological location on the map, it was warm all year.
Despite it being summer in Stoneford City, Vicky still felt uncomfortable with the hot wind blowing at her after she landed. Not to mention, she was wearing her summer clothing.
Except for her laptop, she did not bring other luggage with her.
Once she left the arrival hall, she switched on her phone and texted Sebastian.
[Hey, Sebastian. I’ve landed safely in Lovian.)
The phone beeped twice to show she received a reply from Sebastian.
[I’ve arranged for someone to pick you up. He’s waiting for you at the exit. I’ll send you his photo later. He’ll send you to the apartment.]
A few seconds later, she received a photo from him.
She walked to the exit and glanced over at the people waiting at the exit. Finally, she spotted a handsome young man.
“Are you Henry?”
Henry had received Vicky’s photo prior to meeting her, so he recognized her the moment he saw her. “Yes, I’m Henry.” He smiled cheerfully. “Let’s go, Miss Shaw. I’ll send you to your apartment.”
“Thank you,” muttered Vicky in response.
“You don’t have to be so polite with me. Sebastian and I are buddies.”
Both of them walked together as Henry told Vicky how he met Sebastian and how they ended up being buddies. He was a talkative and humorous young man, and they had a pleasant conversation on the way to the apartment.
There was a time difference between Zendonia and Lovian. Currently, it should be 3 a.m. in the morning for Zendonia, but the nightlife of Lovian had begun.
Due to the temperature, Lovian was a city with a less busy morning. During the day, the people of Lovian would stay at home to avoid the heat and only come out at night.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
At this moment, he was recommending some of the popular food and tourist attractions in Lovian to Vicky when-
Thunk!
The car shook as it was hit by another car from the rear. Henry pulled the car over and told Vicky, Miss Shaw, please wait in the car for me. I need to go down to take a look.”
“Alright,” Vicky answered.
Henry got out of the car.
The person who hit his car was a strong muscular man. The muscular man insisted Henry was the one at fault here because he changed lanes all of a sudden. Not only was he asking Henry to be responsible, but he also wanted Henry to
pay for the damage to his car.
Henry had never met someone such unreasonable. Being young and energetic, he started to argue with the muscular man.
The argument kept going until the police arrived.
Lovian was a famous capitalist country. There was a huge gap between the poor and the rich. Those who were rich were extremely wealthy, and the poor were seriously poor.
There was no surveillance on many parts of the road, and the cars did not have dash-cams to provide evidence. It was up to the police to judge whichever party was wrong.
