Chapter 534

The call dropped. She glanced at the time. She wasn't sure where he was right now. The airport was out in the sticks, if he was in the city, it would take him at least an hour to get there.

Her flight was leaving in forty minutes. She couldn't wait for him. If she missed this flight, the next one wouldn't be until tomorrow morning. She didn't have that kind of time.

Mike noticed her pale face and took her cold hand. "Violette, don't freak out. Whoever's looking for you might need your help with some medical issue." Mike tried to reassure her, "Just try to buy some time, I'll figure something out."

"We need to save Adrian first," Violette said softly.

"Right."

"I've known Adrian for years, I've asked him for help so many times and he's never turned me down. He’s always sharing good stuff with me. He's never asked me for anything, never. Every time I invited him to dinner, he always picked up the tab. He's like my brother." As Violette said this, tears started to fall, "He could have just given them my name and he wouldn't have gotten hurt!"

Mike's eyes reddened slightly and he hugged her, "Don't cry. Adrian will be fine."

At Silverleaf Ridge, Violette and Mike's departure had left the two kids feeling down. Mike told them they had to go handle some stuff in B Country, and they'd be back as soon as they could. But how long would “as soon as they could’ be?

Also, the events of the night were too weird. Ian had no clue what was going on. He had a strong feeling something serious must have happened to make their mom so upset and leave in such a hurry! Mom had never just dropped everything and left him and his sister like she did tonight. Even Ian, who rarely cried, couldn't hold back his tears.

"Why are you crying? Do you miss mom?" Rita's emotions, which had finally calmed down, were stirred up again by Ian’s tears, "Did mom abandon us? I'm scared!"

Ian cleaned his tears and hugged his sister, "Don't be scared, Rita. They'll be back soon. I'll protect you until they return."

Rita cried into her brother's chest for a while, her voice hoarse. "I want Makayla to come stay with us. Can you call her?"

Ian nodded.

The night deepened, the neon lights of the city flickered, stunningly beautiful. The black Rolls-Royce, like a phantom, raced through half the city at top speed to the airport. As soon as the car stopped, Elijah stepped out, phone in hand, and walked briskly towards the terminal.

Chapter 2341 The announcement overhead said the flight to B Country was now boarding, directing passengers to gate 4.

His eyes sharp, he quickly found gate 4 and strode towards it. He needed to know what happened to her. She was leaving so hurriedly, she owed him an explanation. And if possible, he wanted to face whatever it was with her.

As he pushed through the crowd to gate 4, boarding had just ended. He looked down the corridor past the gate, and in the throng of people, he spotted her familiar figure.

His throat felt dry as he softly called out, "Violette!" Why didn't you wait for me? He wanted to confront her, but the question was already moot.

Violette stopped in her tracks. Mike, standing beside her, turned and saw Elijah, "Violette, Elijah's here. Do you want to go talk to him?"

Violette’s eyes welled up with tears.
