Since she would never know, there’s no reason for me to tell her.
It’s nothing more than an ill-fated relationship that has already ended anyway.
Victoria deserves a better man.
With that in mind, Summer composed herself, smiled, and jokingly said, “Yeah. You
know, maybe someone with a dog or perhaps a panhandler.”
Victoria was non plussed. “Are you okay? Pets aren’t allowed inside this airport, and
panhandlers wouldn’t come in either.”
“You’re right. Well, I guess I’m just a little out of it because you’re leaving. Why don’t
you stay?”
Victoria rolled her eyes and ignored Summer’s nonsense.
She bent down to adjust her children’s clothes and heard Nathan saying, “Mommy, I
ran into a handsome man at the restroom just now. He helped me with the door.”
Victoria didn’t know whom Nathan had run into, so she simply asked, “I see. Did you
thank the man, Nathan?”

“I did, Mommy.”
“Then you’re a polite little boy.” Victoria kissed his forehead.
Nathan beamed with pride.
Nicole immediately scooted over too.
“I want a kiss too, Mommy.”
Summer observed the family of three with envy.

If she could, she wanted to have a child of her own without the need for a man, just
like Victoria.
Once they were done, they went back to the security checkpoint,
“We wanted to line up for you, but Mr. Hudson said it wasn’t necessary because
you’re flying first class, so you can head straight to the dedicated lane later. It
slipped my mind just now.”
“Oh. Alright.”
Once Victoria came back, the others watched as they went through the security

check.
When it was over, Summer waved to them with a look of melancholy.
“Wait for me, Victoria! I’ll come and find you!”
However, as she watched Victoria walk away, a thought occurred to her and her
smile slowly faded.
Oh, no!
Why did I forget such an important detail?!

If I ran into Alaric at the airport just now, there’s a high chance it means he’s heading.
back too. Could they be on the same flight?!
A businessman like Alaric would fly first class. If they all end up on the same flight….
I can scarcely allow myself to consider what would happen!
It wouldn’t be such a big deal if it were just Alaric and Victoria, but Victoria has the
kids with her.
Even though it might’ve escaped other people’s attention, Summer could clearly tell
that the kids shared a close resemblance to Alaric, especially Nathan.
Chapter 184 Wait On Them
After all, his genes were involved in their making.
Perhaps Alaric might not recognize them, but what about the people around him?
Summer swiftly grabbed her phone to call Victoria.
However, as she was just about to press the call button, she paused and thought,
What if they’re not on the same flight?
Wouldn’t I just be making Victoria worry for nothing if I told her about this only for
them to not be on the same flight after all?
Who’s to say that Alaric’s heading back anyway?

Maybe he’s flying off to some other country, and even if he’s heading back, he would
be flying back to Gandra while Victoria and Mr. Hudson are heading to Jasea.
Victoria was attending a charity auction right after her return to the country.
The auction was being held in Jasea, so to avoid needing to make any transfers,
they bought flight tickets straight to Jasea.
After calmly considering all possibilities, Summer was no longer quite so anxious.

At the recollection of her initial reaction, she began to chide herself for being so
easily flustered.
I should learn to keep my cool next time.
“What’s the matter, Summer?”
Tony and Sasha had walked off for a while now, but after turning around to find that
Summer hadn’t moved at all, they paused in their footsteps and looked at her.
Their voices drew Summer back to reality. She smiled at them.
“Are you having a hard time letting Victoria go? Well, she’s only a plane ride away.
You don’t have to feel too sad about it.”
Sasha came over to comfort Summer.
“I know, Mrs. Selwyn. I’ll be sure to go and see her when I miss her.”
“Let’s go.”
As they were leaving, Summer couldn’t help but turn around and take one last look.
at the security checkpoint.

Chapter 184 Wait On Them
Please don’t let Victoria run into Alaric.
Let their ill-fated meeting be like ships passing in the night never to be seen again;
let them miss each other the way they did at the restroom earlier.
After getting past the security checkpoint, Victoria carried on walking while holding
onto her children’s hands. She didn’t need to bother with the luggage.
That was because as soon as they were done with the security check, Ethan said to
her, “Give everything to me, Miss Selwyn. I’ll take the luggage.”..
“It’s fine, Mr. Hudson. We have a lot of things with us. You won’t be able to take
everything. I’ll do it.”
“Just leave them to me, Miss Selwyn. Mr. Morison instructed me to accompany you
back so that I can wait on you hand and foot. He will surely cut my pay if I don’t do a
good job of taking care of you.”
Since he put it that way, Victoria felt as if she couldn’t refuse his help.
She sighed to herself and passed the luggage to Ethan. As a result, she and the two
children didn’t have to carry anything with them.
Chapter 184 Wait On Them
They walked ahead while Ethan did as he said and waited on them like a porter.
It wasn’t as bad when Victoria was looking up ahead.
But, when she looked behind her, she felt as if she were taking advantage of him.
Even if he’s helping me with the luggage, I shouldn’t have handed everything off to
him.
In the end, Victoria slowed down, and when Ethan came up beside her, she wanted
to offer to share the load with him. However, Ethan beat her to it and said, “Miss
Selwyn, please don’t refuse me the chance to wait on you, and don’t think it’s hard
for me to handle all the luggage by myself either. My life will be ten thousand times
harder if I don’t get my bonus at the end of the year.”
“He’s not here right now. You can always just lie to him when you report back to
him,” Victoria suggested.
However, Ethan’s eyes widened as he stared at her in disbelief.
“I won’t be able to sleep at night if I had to lie my way into receiving a bonus, Miss.
Selwyn.”

Victoria was dumbfounded.
She didn’t know what to say.

Well, this matter pertained to his year-end bonus, and Victoria didn’t want to be the
reason why he failed to get one.
Therefore, she didn’t press the issue. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
They were walking past a dessert cafe when Nicole said, “Mommy, I want ice
cream.”
Victoria paused for a moment before denying the request. “It’s winter right now.
Having cold foods is bad for your health.”
“But, Mommy… I want some.”
Nicole was a little foodie who wanted to eat anything she laid her eyes on.
Even if her request was denied, she didn’t mind. She would immediately request a
different kind of food instead.
She figured that as long as she asked to have a large enough variety of food, her
mother was bound to agree to let her have one of them.
Unfortunately for her, she was five now and Victoria had a good read on her.
Therefore, as soon as she tried to use her same old tactic, Victoria gave a hard
refusal.

“No, Nicole. You can have something when we get on the plane. The friendly air
stewardesses will give us something to drink.”
