Chapter 183
A few seconds later, Alaric looked back down, but there was no sign of the little boy
he had seen earlier. As it was, the little boy had shuffled off into the restroom after
thanking Alaric and was currently in one of the stalls.
Alaric pursed his lips and frowned.

He couldn’t concentrate on what the person was saying on the phone. Was it just an
illusion?
Was he starting to miss the two children who announced they were taking a break
from their live streams? Was that why he thought he heard the voice of the little boy
named Nathan?
“Mr. Cadogan, I have a few other thoughts regarding this collaboration. Why don’t
we set a time to-”
“Did you hear something just now?” Alaric cut in before the person on the phone
could finish his sentence.
The person was startled by the abrupt interruption.
“Huh?”
Chapter 13 Not Over Him Yel
“Did you hear something coming from my side?”

If it hadn’t been an illusion, the person he was on the call with should have heard the
boy thanking him too.
Meanwhile, his business contact couldn’t quite understand what Alaric meant, but
he recalled hearing that Alaric didn’t like noise.
I did hear some unpleasant sounds earlier, but can I really tell him about it straight to
his face?
In the end, the person decided not to tell the truth.
“I don’t think I heard anything, Mr. Cadogan. Did something happen on your end?” he
asked tentatively as if nothing happened.
Alaric narrowed his eyes and stared at his hand which was still pressed against the
door.
Was it truly just an illusion?
He didn’t have the time to dwell on this as Terrance came running over and huffed
breathlessly, “I have the documents you asked for, Mr. Cadogan.”

Alaric glanced at him in displeasure.
Terrance straightened up and pressed his lips together.

After a while, he suggested, “Shall we get past the security check first? There’s a
cafe on the other side. It’s rather inconvenient for you to discuss work matters here.”
Alaric’s business contact immediately seconded the idea. “That’s a good idea, Mr.
Cadogan. If this is an inconvenient time for you, let’s hold off on our discussion for a
little while until you get through the security check.”
Alaric mulled it over for a second before nodding and ending the call. He then
walked off with a grim expression.
Terrance quickly followed close behind.
There were a lot of people passing through outside the restroom. As Terrance tailed
behind a stern-looking Alaric, his eyes were subconsciously drawn to a specific
spot.
He was a little dismayed. As he was heading over to the restroom earlier, he saw a
woman whose attractive figure was prominently visible despite her simple get-up.
Just the view of her from behind made his heart skip a beat.

Chapter 183 Not Over Him Yet
Unfortunately for him, the woman had her back toward him earlier, and he was too
much of a coward to go around to take a peek at the woman’s face. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He planned on taking a closer look when he came back out, but in that short
amount of time, she had left.
Oh, well. Terrance figured he wasn’t the type who would get so lucky.
Meanwhile, Summer was clutching her bag as she dashed through the crowd and
headed for the restroom.
When she was about to reach the restroom, she started breaking out into a smile,
but the handsome and aloof face she spotted made her come to an abrupt halt. She
immediately turned around.
“Wait for me, Mr. Cadogan!”
Once the two men had walked past Summer, she finally looked up and watched
their retreating backs.
Her eyes widened with shock. That was… Alaric Cadogan, right?
Alaric Cadogan!

Chapter 183 Not Over Him Yet
She didn’t think she would run into him at the airport after all these years.
If I’m not mistaken… he came from the restroom, didn’t he?
In that case…
Shoot!
“Victoria!”
5/9
Summer sprinted toward the restroom. While she was standing in line earlier, it
suddenly occurred to her that Nathan was a boy and Victoria wouldn’t have brought
him into the women’s restroom, and neither would she have followed Nathan into
the men’s restroom either, so it would be rather inconvenient for her to look after the
two children.
Thus, Summer came over to see if she could help out.
She didn’t expect to run into Alaric.
It had been ages since she last saw him.
After five years, Alaric seemed to have become a lot more solemn. At the same
time, his aura became even colder and more dominant.
Chapter 1h1 Not Over Him Yet
Just a fleeting glance from a distance was enough for Summer to sense the chilly
aura that emanated from deep within him.
His features had also become even sharper and more refined than before.
That was how Summer was able to instantly spot him in the crowd.
6/9
He’s handsome, alright! It’s not surprising that Victoria fell in love with him back then,
and still hasn’t gotten over him yet after all these years.
Summer would’ve fallen in love with him for his looks too if he hadn’t been the man
her friend had feelings for.
Once Summer got to the restroom, she saw Victoria coming out with Nicole.
She rushed forward and called out while huffing, “Victoria!”
“Summer?” Victoria was a little puzzled.
“Why did you come over?”
Thanks to her running and her nervousness, Summer was still trying to catch her
breath. “I thought it’d be difficult for you to handle both kids, so I came to help. How
are you? Are you okay?”
Sat,
Chapter 183 Not Over Him Yet
Summer scrutinized Victoria from top to bottom and even circled her twice.
Victoria was confused. She didn’t know what was going on.
“Where’s Nathan?”
Victoria handed Nicole over to Summer and waited outside the men’s restroom.
Earlier on, Nicole had come running back out for her so she had to enter the
women’s restroom, but it had only been for a moment so she figured that Nathan
wouldn’t have come out yet.
True enough, after a minute or so, she saw a tiny silhouette.
“Mommy.”
Victoria brought the two kids out to the common area and washed their hands for
them.
She was focused and delicate with the task. It didn’t seem like she had been
affected by anything.
Summer saw that Victoria seemed perfectly normal, but she had to be sure, so she
asked, “You’re really fine, right, Victoria?”

Chapter 153 Not Over Him Yet
Is she just putting up a brave front?
Victoria wiped the children’s hands dry before turning to look at Summer.
“Why wouldn’t I be fine? What’s up with you today?”
“Oh. It’s nothing. What I mean is, did you see anyone strange in the restroom?”
“Someone strange?” Victoria narrowed her eyes. “What counts as strange?”
Victoria’s response made Summer’s heart settle back down again.
8/0
She was worried that Victoria was secretly upset, but the latter’s calm didn’t seem to
be just for show.
She probably didn’t run into Alaric.
Though Summer didn’t understand how the two could’ve possibly missed each.
other inside such a small restroom area, that was just how fate worked sometimes.
Even though two people were in the same place, they could still walk past each
other without ever knowing that the other was right there too.
If I hadn’t seen Alaric, perhaps Victoria would never know that she and Alaric ended

up at the same airport today.
