He wanted to find out who this “runaway” was that had Dorothy so worried and desperate. He found himself wanting to help her, even if she probably didn’t need him.
The call that Dorothy had received was indeed from Kenneth.
He said that Langston had run away from home, leaving only a note stating that he was going back to their homeland to look for his mother.
Lane didn’t know what happened to her, and when he asked, she said nothing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDorothy naturally wouldn't reveal more of her secrets to others. Lane already knew about her daughter's relationship with Everett, so she couldn't possibly tell him about her son too.
The only ones who knew about her other child were Karen and Kenneth.
Upon reaching the hotel, Dorothy immediately started packing her belongings, preparing to head to the airport.
She needed to go back and discuss plans with Karen. If all else failed, she would immediately fly overseas to find her son.
“What are you doing?” Lane asked.
As soon as she stepped out, she saw Lane still standing at the corner of the entrance.
“Lane, | need to go home.” “Is your daughter in trouble?” Lane wasn’t stupid. After seeing her so anxious, he could guess what had happened.
Dorothy paused, then nodded. “Yes, so | need to go back. | might need to take a few days off.” She didn’t know how long it would take to find her son.
“Sure, you can take as long as you need. On one condition: | come with you.” He wanted to be more involved in Dorothy's life and interact with her daughter.
But to his surprise, Dorothy immediately refused. “No. She's very shy.” Lane felt a bit awkward. He hurriedly said, “I really mean well. | have no ulterior motives. I'm worried about your daughter too.” “I can find her on my own. Thank you though.” Dorothy dragged her suitcase and was about to leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLane followed her and tried helping her with the luggage. “At least let me take you to the airport.” “Lane...” “You'll waste time hailing a taxi. My car is faster!” “Alright.” She was in such a mess right now. She didn’t have the energy to draw a line with him. All she wanted was to find Langston as soon as possible.
He was so young; it would be easy for him to run into trouble.
Dorothy couldn't bear to think about the what-ifs.
Upon arriving at the airport, Lane didn’t say much. He simply helped her with her luggage and watched as Dorothy went through security before he left.
Dorothy sat in the waiting room and quickly called Kenneth.
“Did you find Langston?” “No! He took his passport. It seems like he’s really planning to go back.” Dorothy frowned. “He’s too young. The airport wouldn't let him board!” “I hope so. I'm at the airport right now. There are only a few flights back, so I'll wait a bit longer.” “Were there any signs before he ran away? Did he say anything to you?” Dorothy’s voice was hoarse. She wished she could fly overseas immediately.
Kenneth paused, then said, “Not really. | had just bought him new clothes, and he seemed happy. He even said how nice it would be if | were his dad, and then he went to do his homework. | thought he had fallen asleep after finishing his homework, but when | opened the door, there was nobody there. He had jumped out of the window, leaving only a note for me.” “Could it be that he didn’t finish his homework and ran away to avoid the teacher's check?” Kids usually run away for such reasons.
