Chapter 553


    I nodded and said with a smile, "Well then, both of you go ahead. I''ll take my leave first."


    It turned out that the reason why Freya spent so much effort to ask me out was because she wanted


    me to apany her to wait for her sweetheart.


    When I left the restaurant, the sky in Ucrebury was a little dark. It seemed as if it was going to rain.


    Hendrix had been on a business trip for two days. All of a sudden, I began to miss him. I took out my


    phone and decided to call him.


    The phone rang several times before it went through. "Arianna, have you eaten?" Hendrix''s voice


    sounded a little low on the other end, as if he had been sleeping.


    Considering the time difference, it must be dawn in Mesville. When I realized this, I spoke


    apologetically to the receiver, "Did I disturb you?"


    "No!" He said in a low and maic voice, "I just dreamt of you and I miss you."


    I stood at the door of the restaurant, feeling the wind blow against my face. I felt a faint warmth in my


    heart swelling up the more I heard his voice.


    "I miss you too!" That was right, I had to tell him that I longed for and loved him as well.


    Hendrix sounded taken aback for a bit. "Wait for me. I''lle back as soon as I''m done."


    "Okay, I will.!"


    Realizing that he had to work tomorrow, I said, "Rest well, I''ll hang up first."


    Without waiting for him to speak, I hung up the phone. My heart was suddenly beating faster. For some


    reason, I clicked on the ne ticket website and ordered myself a ticket to Mesville.


    Over the next ten hours, I drove straight to the airport.


    While on my way there, I sent a message to Minnie telling her that I won''t be home tonight.


    As I needed to turn off my phone in the ne, I texted regrly to Hendrix and told him that I had


    something to do. When I arrived at the airport, I got on the ne and flew directly for Mesville.


    Flights to foreign countries took a while, and I slept on the ne in a daze. There were still a few hours


    left to go when I woke up, so I took out the book I bought at the airport and started reading it.


    During theyover in Sydne, I had a bathroom break and had something to eat at Sydne Airport.


    When I had to board the ne again, I almost forgot my book. Fortunately, I had enough time, so I ran


    back to get to where I left it to retrieve it.


    "Ouch!" Because I walked in a hurry, I knocked into a girl in high heels when I entered the passageway.

    The girl was holding a coke in her hand while her beach hat fell to the ground upon impact, revealing


    her blonde hair.


    "My clothes!" The coke had spilt all over the girl''s clothes. She was so anxious that she instantly


    shouted.


    I quickly took some tissue out to help her wipe her clothes. I apologized and picked up everything that


    had fallen to the floor.


    She was so gorgeous that even girls would want to take a few more nces at her.


    "Luckily, it was just coke and the color of my clothes is dark. Otherwise, it would''ve left a stain. Girl, you


    got lucky!" She spoke in English.


    I felt so sorry for the mishap. I apologized hastily and handed her the hat that I picked up. Then, I


    apologized a few more times.


    She peered at me and shrugged her shoulders. She put on her hat and muttered, "Mr. Granger is


    probably waiting for me now."


    After that, she went up along the boarding gate.
