Loving You Too Long

Good news for Haisley the next day. She heard that Gilbert and Dean had planned to spend their vacation in Miami and had even given Haisley a photo of their plane tickets and the possible time they would arrive at the airport.

Yes, Dean and Gilbert promised to meet in Manhattan before eventually using the same plane to fly to Miami. It’s inconvenient, while there is actually a plane they could use to land directly in Miami.

Haisley herself resisted telling Gilbert about Flavia’s presence in Miami. Haisley knew that Gilbert had liked Flavia for a while, but he didn’t dare to express his feelings because of religious differences. What would her friend say when he saw the increasingly beautiful Flavia? Surely he would like her even more. As a woman, Haisley herself admired the beauty of the Italian-blooded girl, especially Gilbert.

Haisley had already asked to swap shifts with her coworker the day before. Luckily, her friend agreed to exchange schedules, so now Haisley is here, waiting for Dean and Gilbert at the airport.

Upon hearing that the plane carrying her two friends had landed, Haisley immediately went to the passenger exit and prepared to welcome them.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Gilbert’s figure couldn’t be said to be too conspicuous. Like the tourists who are already familiar in Miami, so is Gilbert’s figure now. Seeing her friend scanning around in his Miami-style sunglasses, Haisley instantly jumped and waved her hands while calling their names.

“G! Dean! Over here!” Haisley shouted loudly, still jumping and waving both of her hands.

The two cousins looked at her simultaneously. With laughter on their faces, Haisley immediately collided with Dean and Gilbert and hugged them with her petite arms.

“Oh God, I really missed you guys.” Haisley said sincerely. Dean patted her back while Gilbert ruffled the girl’s hair with affection.

Haisley released her embrace and raised her head to the two tall guys. “Did you guys miss me too?” she asked with a hopeful tone.

Dean and Gilbert looked at each other and then shook their heads at the same time, making Haisley squint her eyes and pout in annoyance.

“All right, I’m just going back then,” she said curtly, and she indeed turned her body around. Then, Dean and Gilbert clasped their hands on Haisley’s shoulders, causing the girl to stumble under the weight. “Do you guys not realize personal space?” she grumbled irritably, but Dean and Gilbert just chuckled at her complaint.

“Haisley?!” A soft, feminine voice made Haisley stop in her tracks. She looked at Dean and Gilbert alternately with furrowed eyebrows before turning around to search for the person calling her.

The girl looked beautiful in a mini skirt and a white tank top. Sunglasses perched on her sharp nose. Behind those sunglasses, Haisley knew the girl was looking in her direction because she could see a smile forming on her face.

“Loretta?” Haisley mumbled the girl’s name. She didn’t know what to feel when she saw the figure of the girl now quickly walking towards her, extending her arms as if asking Haisley to step into her embrace.

“Oh my God, Haisley. I’ve missed you,” the girl said while hugging Haisley tightly. “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming to America?” she scolded with a reproachful tone.

Haisley herself was silent. She didn’t know how to answer, especially since she couldn’t control her feelings. Especially when she saw the man who had been the goal of her escape to Miami now standing in front of her, looking at her with his cold gaze.

“Haisley? Are you daydreaming?” the girl asked in her mother tongue.

Haisley widened her eyes and shook her head instantly. She tried to put a smile on her face. The genuine smile that she used to easily show Loretta now felt heavy to give.

“I missed you too, Loretta,” Haisley replied, with a directed gaze at her beloved fiancé. “I’m sorry I left without saying goodbye. Everything happened so suddenly, I didn’t have much time to meet all my acquaintances. And when I came to America, I got too caught up with my work and forgot to contact you,” Haisley said again.

In reality, Haisley deliberately changed her phone number after coming to America so that Loretta and anyone who had been her friend in England wouldn’t contact her and give her news she didn’t want to hear. Haisley only gave her new number to Gilbert, Dean, Aunt Monica, and her family members.

Haisley, upon arriving in Miami, redirected her attention to Dean and Gilbert. Walking close to them, she stood between them and warmly embraced their arms on her shoulders.

“Have you guys found a place to stay?” Haisley inquired. Dean and Gilbert simultaneously shook their heads. “I can’t invite you to stay with me, even though I’d love to. I live in the staff dorms and can’t just host guests casually. Considering you both have a lot of money, it’s better if you contribute by staying at my hotel, what do you think?” Haisley asked, looking up at them and receiving another simultaneous nod from the cousin pair.

Haisley cheered happily upon hearing their agreement. Not because she would get an incentive or commission for bringing guests to the hotel where she worked, but because she wanted to minimize the time and, possibly, expenses to meet with them. If Dean and Gilbert stayed in another hotel, Haisley would have to spend more time and maybe money to see them.

“You didn’t pick us up in a private car?” Dean asked when they were outside the airport. Haisley nudged his stomach and looked at him annoyed.

“You know I can’t drive!” she said irritably, to which Gilbert responded with a chuckle.

“So, why bother picking us up if you’re not giving us a ride?” teased Gilbert again.

Haisley squinted at him. “I was afraid you’d be kidnapped, considering you’re foreign tourists,” she said casually, making both men burst into laughter. They forgot that behind them, there was a figure observing their interaction with a cold gaze hidden behind stylish sunglasses.
