It was noon when Wendy arrived in North City. She had called Melody to ask where Byron’s hotel was on the way there. After getting off the plane, she went directly to the hotel.At the door of the hotel, Wendy frowned slightly when she saw the hotel in front of her. The suspicions she had grew stronger and stronger.Considering who Byron was, he would at least stay in a five-star hotel when traveling on business. This hotel in front of her looked high-end, but it was far from the class of hotels that Byron would stay in.Unless… he really came searching for that wench, Rosalie.Thinking of this, Wendy's heart sank again. She quickly walked up to the front desk. "Hello, I'm looking for someone. Could you please help me search for the room number of one Byron Lawrence?"The front desk staff member looked at her and was about to ask her what her relationship was with Byron when Wendy immediately added, "I'm his fiancee. I called him just now. He told me the room number, but I instant
Their eyes met, and a touch of coldness crossed Wendy's heart.As she had expected, that wench was also staying here!Rosalie could no longer avoid her. She simply walked in the direction of the elevator calmly, pretending not to have seen her.Wendy saw through her intent. She bit down on her teeth hard and strode up, "Miss Jacobs, Young Master Leon, what a coincidence. Are you two also staying here?"Rosalie frowned slightly, not wanting to pay any attention to her.To the side, Leon could tell what Rosalie was thinking and calmly walked in between the two of them to separate Rosalie from Wendy. He nodded to her distantly. "Miss Fuller, what a coincidence. You're—"Before he could finish speaking, Wendy interrupted with a smile, "It's too much of a coincidence. Byron is also staying in this hotel, and I was just thinking of surprising him! Look, I just got his room card."With that, Wendy pretended to take out the room card unconsciously and shook it in front of them. She quic
Back in her room, Rosalie’s expression turned somewhat ugly. Her mind was also empty as she sat down on the bed and spaced out.She did not think she would meet Byron here and especially did not think that Wendy would come chasing over.If the three of them were to bump into one another…Rosalie could not even imagine what would unfold.Thinking of this, Rosalie’s gaze focused as she got up and began packing her luggage.If she could not afford to trigger them, she could still afford to avoid them.Either way, she had no more business in North City. Her leaving whenever would make no difference.As she was halfway packing her things, a knock sounded on her door.Rosalie got up. When she was going to open the door, she hesitated for a moment before asking, “Who is it?”Leon’s voice sounded from outside the door. “It’s me. It’s about time for lunch. Do you want to go together?”Only after hearing this did Rosalie open the door and let Leon into the room.Seeing her almost pack
Looking at Rosalie’s leaving figure from the back, Byron’s expression tightened.The woman was still fine and dandy this morning and did not have the slightest intention of leaving. Why did she suddenly want to leave this afternoon?If his ears did not deceive him, she seemed to have mentioned something about his fiancee waiting for him in his room just now.What did she mean by this?Looking at their figures disappearing from his sight, Byron told Luther in a deep voice, "Buy tickets for the earliest flight back to Coast City."Luther affirmed.Byron turned around and strode into the elevator with a heavy expression.He wanted to see who his so-called fiancee was!That woman had said that his future wife was waiting for him in his room.Byron’s expression was cold when he opened the door. After entering the room, he glanced around the room expressionlessly but did not see anyone at all.He was just about to ask Luther to look into this when a knock sounded on his door all of
Wendy just wanted to know whether Byron came here for Rosalie by beating about the bush.Although she already had a guess, she still wanted to hear Byron explain it himself.However, she did not expect to have accidentally crossed the line.Seeing Byron's cold expression, Wendy panicked. She steeled her composure and apologized, "I said too much. Of course, you’d have your reason for staying here."With that, she tentatively asked, "When are you going to go back? Maybe we can go back together?"Byron lifted his gaze and glanced at Luther.Luther respectfully said, "Sir, the ticket has already been bought."Perhaps it was a coincidence, but there was only one first-class ticket left when he bought it.Byron leisurely got up from the sofa. "Then pack up and get ready to go."With that, Byron slid a hand into his pocket with one hand. He stood in front of the full-length window and looked downstairs from a distance.If he headed over now, he might still be able to catch up to th
An hour later, on the plane to Coast City.When Rosalie saw the man entering the hatch, her brows furrowed slightly.She thought Byron's words just now were just empty words since they had also bought their tickets in a hurry.Moreover, when she bought the tickets, she noted that there were only three more tickets left. After she bought the tickets with Leon, there was only the last one remaining. She did not expect, however, that Byron would so coincidentally buy the last ticket. Seeing the man getting closer and closer to her, regret rushed through Rosalie's eyes.She had only planned to go back by herself just now, so she went ahead and bought her ticket first. Hence, she and Leon had bought their tickets separately. They did not get the tickets for the side-by-side seats. The last ticket was for the seat beside her… Rosalie did not expect it to be Byron's seat at first and did not think of switching seats with other people.At present, she was sitting by the window, an
Some time passed, and the man's gaze still had not left her form. Rosalie furrowed her brows. She was somewhat troubled. She lifted her hand and wanted to pull up the blanket some more to cover her entire face to reduce the oppressive feeling the man's gaze brought. However, she had kept her eyes shut the entire time. When she lifted her hand, she not only did not manage to grip the blanket, but the blanket ended up being on the floor. Noticing the weight on her body having reduced all of a sudden, Rosalie could not help but freeze. She hesitated about whether or not to open her eyes and pick up the blanket.However, she then thought of her situation at the moment.If she let the man find out that she was pretending to sleep, she was afraid things would get more awkward. Without the shield of the blanket, the man's gaze on her felt way too obvious… Just as she was caught in this dilemma, there was some movement from the seat next to her.Rosalie's body instantly went taut.
It was not until the plane landed that Rosalie lifted the blanket and sat up calmly, her eyes clear and bright.Byron glanced at her and was not surprised to see the clear look on her face. A touch of self-mockery crossed his heart, but he did not say anything.Even with his present attitude, the woman was already trying so hard to avoid him. If he crossed the line again, it was possible that the woman would hide away at some place where he could not find her, just as she did six years ago.Byron did not want to scare away the person he had finally found none too easily. The person beside her sat motionlessly. Rosalie just frowned without urging him.The man only got up leisurely after most of the people had left. They got off the plane one after another. Leon and Luther were already waiting outside.Leon had seen Byron sitting next to Rosalie on the plane just now, but the plane had already taken off, so he could not do anything.Seeing Byron now, he just politely said hello
