“I... I...”
“Let me carry you.”
Subsequently, the good-looking young man bent down and picked her up in his arms.
Though he seemed thin and slender, he could easily carry Susan up.
She widened her teary eyes and gawked at him.
Her gaze was fixated on him even after they had both left the cafe.
She was literally in a daze.
“What happened, Mr. Ian?”
“Inform the police that the human traffickers are hiding beneath this area. If you want to keep your job,
you'd better catch the mastermind red-handed. Otherwise, this airport will be acquired by the Hayes,” he
instructed several men in black indifferently after getting out of the elevator.
His stern voice and imposing aura sent a shiver down the men's spines.
He sounds and looks exactly like...
If the men had not seen Ian with their own eyes, they would have mistaken him for Sebastian.
It suddenly dawned on them that Ian and his father were most alike in all aspects.
Then, the men got to work right away.
Susan was still feeling groggy. When she finally snapped back to her senses, she realized that she was
sitting in a lounge with a hot cup of coffee in her hands.
“I've bought the tickets, and we will board the plane in half an hour's time. Take a rest for now.”
Ian took out a bottle of water and sat beside her.
However, he did not drink it. He kept the boarding passes and returned the identification card to her.
Susan was completely baffled.
When did he take my identification card? How come I wasn't aware of it?
“What's wrong? It's not nice?”
“Oh, nothing. It tastes good. I'm... I'm just feeling a little dizzy.” Susan lowered her head and averted his
intent gaze.
It was the first time she panicked before him
Feeling dizzy?
As soon as she said that, Ian recalled that she was drugged earlier on, and he rose to his feet
immediately.
Susan was stunned. “Where are you going?”
“I'm going to get you some medicine. Don't roam around, just wait for me here.” With that, he left the
lounge.
Susan watched on for a very long time before taking her eyes off of his back. Then, she hung her head
low and continued sipping on the coffee which she thought tasted very sweet.
Half an hour later, it was time for them to board the flight.
“Oh right, why are you here? Did Timothy say something to you when he went back?”
Upon taking her seat, Susan felt more at ease and posted a question to Ian.
He nodded in response while scrolling through his new phone.
The gentle sun shone into the aircraft through the windows and fell on his delicate and chiseled side
profile. Basked in the golden rays, he looked absolutely handsome like a model coming straight out from
a painting.
“Yup, he said that your mom fell ill. Don't worry, I'll ask my Mommy for help.”
He gave her a short reply without taking his eyes off of his new phone.
Seeing so, Susan felt a little uncomfortable.
She was the one who bought him the phone, but she could not tell if he liked it. His previous one was
gifted by his parents. It was a limited edition phone with only a few of the same kind in the whole wide
world.
That made Susan a little apprehensive.
Luckily, he started playing games on it after setting it up.
“Um... You have to switch your phone off during take-off.”
Hmm?
Her statement caught his attention.
Do I really have to switch it off? How troublesome!
Born with a golden spoon, Ian had never experienced anything less than a luxury life. He never came
across this rule when he traveled in his own private jet as arranged by his father.
Nonetheless, he obliged with a frown.
“You can read some books. I have a Kindle in my bag. Would you like that?” Susan offered.
“Kindle? What's that?”
“This one.”
Seeing that he was interested, she quickly fished out her most-loved gadget from her bag and passed it
to him.
She usually travel light, but she would always have a backpack with her to keep her phone and keys.
Apart from those two essentials, Susan also brought her Kindle.
Ian took it and was surprised to see an electronic book.
Since young, Sebastian had been promoting paper books to Ian because they had a large library at
home with an enormous collection of reading materials.
When he switched the device on, the title on the first page of the screen read: Spoiled Rotten By The
Domineering President.
Ian was dumbfounded.
“Oh no, this is not for you. Hold on, let me find another book.”
Susan's face turned crimson red, she was dying to find a hole to bury her head at that instant. She swiftly
snatched the book away and deleted it before searching for one that he would like.
There goes my reputation. This is so embarrassing!
