Chapter 390 Do You Want To Get In?
Their eyes met for two seconds. Both were slightly surprised.
Christopher first came back to his senses and curled up the corners of his lips mysteriously. “What a coincidence,”
he said.
Yuliana averted her gaze and hummed indifferently before withdrawing her stretched legs to make way for
him
Obviously, the empty seat next to hers was Christopher’s.
Christopher casually put his bag into the overhead bins above his seat and sat in with his head slightly lowered.
There were still a few minutes before the plane took off.
Yuliana used this time slot to check her unread messages and emails. She selectively replied to some of the
important ones. When she was just about to turn on airplane mode, something suddenly occurred to her. She
clicked on WhatsApp and searched for Wesley to send him a message.
“I’m going on a business trip to Druobridge. I’ll be back the night after tomorrow.”
Yuliana was not sure if Wesley could see the message, not to mention if he would reply.
After sending the message, Yuliana waited for half a minute. Seeing that Wesley didn’t reply, she turned on airplane
mode and put her phone into her bag.
“Well, I didn’t expect you to take the initiative and report your whereabouts.” A man’s slightly sarcastic voice
sounded beside her.
Yuliana furrowed her eyebrows slightly and shot Christopher a look. She wanted to say something but then held her
words back.
She had nothing to say to Christopher, and she didn’t need to explain anything to him. They didn’t even have the
need to communicate, except for things related to Rowan.
As for Rowan, Yuliana didn’t think that there was anything wrong with him.
Everyone was already mature. Since they had already decided to be together, they should maintain this
relationship properly.
The plane took off smoothly.
Yuliana took out her sleep mask and put it on, ready to sleep.
Halfway through the flight, the plane experienced turbulence. She woke up for a while, but since it wasn’t serious,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe fell asleep again very soon.
When she finally woke up again, the plane was already circling above Druobridge Airport, ready to land.
She subconsciously tilted her head sideways and looked out of the window. When she withdrew her gaze, she
unintentionally caught a glimpse of Christopher.
His arms were folded around his chest, his body curled up slightly. He fell asleep with his eyes shut tight; his
eyebrows almost twisted into a knot. His face was so tense that all color drained from his face. Even his lips. were
very pale.
Yuliana hesitated for a while before reaching out and patting Christopher’s arm. “Are you okay?” asked Yuliana.
She thought that Christopher was airsick or unwell.
However, Christopher didn’t respond.
Only then did she realize that Christopher was asleep. His reaction was more likely to be him having a nightmare.
After thinking for a while, she felt that it was none of her business.
“The plane will land very soon. He would then wake up himself,” Yuliana thought.
Yuliana forcibly distracted herself from Christopher. She picked up the magazine provided on the plane and flipped
through it. The magazine was mostly about Druobridge, introducing some very popular tourist
attractions.
Druobridge was a city rich in tourism resources.
Those resort development projects mentioned by Craig were located in a small town down Druobridge. The scenery
of the town was excellent, but due to the outdated transportation environment and public facilities, it had not yet
become a popular attraction, and only a small portion of tourists had visited it.
In fact, this resort development project was quite decent. Once everything was constructed and the public facilities
included were improved, there would still be a large profit margin as long as it could attract a large number of
tourists.
“Ana…”
Yuliana was fully focused on reading the magazine. A familiar voice suddenly drew all of her attention.
She turned her head out of reflex, only to see that Christopher still had his eyes closed, his face grimmer than
before.
There were at least ten minutes left before the plane would be landing.
“Ana, you’re mine…” Anger flashed across the man’s beautiful eyebrows.
Yuliana curled up her fingers slightly and fell silent for a while. She exerted a little strength and patted Christopher
on the shoulder. “Christopher, wake up!”
She exerted more strength on her grip and shook him several times. Finally, the man’s eyebrows slowly relaxed.
After two seconds, a pair of dark eyes emerged from under his eyelids.
He stared at Yuliana intently for a while, and then the darkness in his eyes slowly faded.
He wiped his face and glanced out of the window. “We’ve arrived,” he said.
Yuliana pursed her lower lip slightly and softly hummed in response. “You had a nightmare,” Yuliana replied.
Christopher tilted his head and leaned against the backrest of his seat. He faced Yuliana slightly and asked, “What
did I dream about?”
Yuliana’s gaze fell on the magazine in her hand. “Your dream? How do I know what you dreamed?” Christopher
stayed silent for a while. “I dreamed about you.”
The magazine pages in Yuliana’s hand were slightly wrinkled. She lowered her eyes and didn’t answer. After that,
both of them didn’t speak anymore.
About ten minutes later, the plane landed smoothly.
The temperature of Druobridge was different from that of Juxshire. The altitude was higher, and the temperature
difference between day and night was large.
After getting off the plane, Yuliana, who was only wearing a pink knitted short-sleeve, quickly got goosebumps on
her arms due to the temperature.
It was quite cold.
Yuliana did bring a coat in her suitcase. However, she didn’t bother to open the suitcase and take it out.
She followed the crowd and walked all the way out of the airport.
On the other hand, Christopher answered a phone call and left the airport a little bit later.
Craig did arrange for someone to pick Yuliana up, but even when a few minutes passed after Yuliana left the
airport, the person who was supposed to pick her up didn’t contact her.
It was almost dawn, and the wind was gushing outside. It was much colder than in the airport.
Yuliana shivered and called Craig. “Didn’t you say that you already arranged for someone to pick me up? Why
hasn’t anyone contacted me?” she asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCraig was just about to go to sleep. Hearing this, he asked dubiously, “Didn’t anyone contact you? It’s impossible.
Zavion said he had already given his heads-up.”
Zavion was one of Craig’s assistants, who was a freshman recently graduated from college. He was responsible for
dealing with some minor errands.
How could Yuliana not hear the perfunctory tone in his words? Realization dawned upon her the moment she saw
Christopher on the plane.
“How about I call Zavion and ask him?” Craig said as if he had no idea what to do. “However, Zavion is
probably asleep at this hour. Even if I succeeded in contacting him to pick you up, it’s already very late. Ms.
Livingstone, maybe you can hail a car to go to the hotel yourself?”
“Mr. Newton!” Yuliana restrained herself and said through her gritted teeth, “Why haven’t I noticed that you’re so
troublesome before?”
With that, she hung up the phone.
She was so angry that her chest throbbed.
At this hour, how many cars could be at the airport? Most of them were here to pick up someone.
Every taxi that arrived was immediately hailed by others.
Yuliana was rubbing her arms when she saw an empty taxi. Just as she was about to go over there with her
suitcase, a middle-aged woman rushed over and stood behind the car. She waved in the direction behind her.
Yuliana turned sideways and took a quick look. She saw a girl in her early twenties with a several-month-old toddler
hanging in front of her chest while pushing a stroller with one hand.
Yuliana sighed in her heart and withdrew her footsteps. She stood there, waiting for the next taxi.
She lifted her wrist and checked the time. It was already past twelve o’clock.
At this moment, a black Mercedes-Benz slowly stopped in front of her.
Yuliana was slightly stunned. The window of the rear compartment was lowered, revealing the man’s side profile.
“Get in the car.”
Yuliana pursed her lips and refused. “No need. A car is coming to pick me up,” she said.
Christopher laughed and said, “Craig told me that the driver who was supposed to pick you up went home for his
elder’s funeral. He can’t come.”
Yuliana felt speechless.
“Do you want to get in the car?”
