Chapter 337 Why Do You Keep Following Me?
On the next day, because Olivia had chatted with Eugene until late last night, it was already 6:30 am when she woke up. When she walked out of her room, she thought she would see George making breakfast for her and North in the kitchen, but she realized that the house was unusually quiet.
She had a bad premonition and quickly ran toward George’s room. She knocked on his room and shouted, “George? George?” Unfortunately, no matter how hard she knocked, nobody answered. With that, she directly pushed the door open and went in.
Just like she had expected, the room was tidy and empty, as if nobody lived there before. Olivia left the room in a hurry, grabbed her phone, and called George.
The sound of the dialing tone made her feel irritated. At that moment, Olivia was extremely anxious and she secretly kept urging the other person on the phone to pick up. His phone is not switched off. That means that he isn’t on the plane yet. In the end, my selfishness forced George to leave. How did he leave without making a sound?
How sound asleep was I? Why didn’t I hear anything?! Panic and self-blame instantly swept over her. After a long while, she finally heard George’s voice from the other end of the phone. “Olivia…”
At that instant, Olivia almost burst into tears. With an aggrieved voice, she asked, “George, where are you?” George slowly replied, “I’m almost at the airport.”
Hearing this, Olivia was angry and anxious. “What time is your flight? How could you leave without saying anything and don’t even let me send you off?”
George said, “There’s no need to send me off. It’s not like I won’t come back in the future. I’ll be back when I have the chance.”
However, Olivia was still furious. “But you can’t stop me from sending you off. What time is your flight? I’ll head over there now!”
George replied, “Don’t come over. I’m almost there.”
Olivia said angrily, “You’re intentionally making me feel upset, aren’t you?”
George’s tone suddenly turned serious. “Olivia, there is no one in this world that wants you to be happy more than me!” Olivia felt a lump in her throat.
“Then wait for me. I’ll send you off!” After she finished speaking, she didn’t give George a chance to speak and directly hung up the phone. Then, she made a call to Eugene and asked him to send North to school. Later, she went to North’s room and woke him up. After she dressed herself up and was about to leave the house, she bumped into Eugene. “I’ll drive you to the airport,” Eugene said.
Olivia replied, “There’s no need. North needs to go to school today. Help me take him to school.” Hearing this, Eugene said, “I already asked Nathan to come over. I’ll go with you.” When the two of them were talking, Nathan arrived. Seeing this, Eugene raised his eyebrows at Olivia, as if he was asking Olivia if he could accompany her to the airport.
Olivia didn’t say anything else. After giving Nathan the address, she hurried to the airport with Eugene.
At the same time, George arrived at the airport. As soon as he entered the airport, he saw a familiar figure and immediately frowned slightly. “Why are you here?”
Penny looked at him and with a triumphant smile on her face, she replied, “I can find out about your flight details even if you don’t tell me.”
Hearing this, George ignored her and walked toward the waiting hall. Penny quickly followed behind him and asked, “Why are you suddenly returning to Mastar?” George didn’t say anything and continued to drag his luggage forward without looking back. Seeing this, Penny asked again, “George, when will you come back?” George continued to ignore her and started to take bigger steps.
Penny was holding a bag in her hand and she looked like a mess as she chased after him. Even though she knew George was cold and unfriendly, the more frustrated she got, the more courage she had. “George, I’m attending an academic seminar in Mastar in a few days. Can I find you then?”
At that moment, George’s patience finally wore out and he suddenly stopped in his tracks. “What’s the matter with you? Why do you keep following me?”
Penny was so surprised, she froze in place. With an aggrieved expression, she replied, “I-I just want to send you off!”
