Chapter 72: Only to see This? After a whole day of work, Jena bowed her head in front of Airina with a big grin and waved her hands afterward. Airina watched as Jena called the taxi and got inside before trying to grab the handle of the car but someone suddenly grasped her wrist, causing her to twirl around and fixed her eyes at the person who just did so.
“Daniel…” she called out after a relieved sigh. She almost immediately took her hand back to her side, “You’re here?”
He nodded then took out something from behind his back. With a beam on his face, he then wrapped the scarf around her neck, gently tightening it as she furrowed her brows at him. She was cold, but she didn’t need someone to put a scarf around her neck.
“I… I don’t need.”
“No, keep it. I could see your flushed cheeks even in the dim light of the streetlights.”
She clasped the scarf and pursed her lips. “Thank you for your consideration.”
Daniel put both of his hands over his back and stepped back. After what Airina had told him, he ensured that he wouldn’t come off as a rude and creepy pursuer of her. After a proper distance between them, he tilted his head and scrunched his nose.
“You can go now. Do note that it’s cold these days so consider put more clothes or wear those that will keep you warm.”
Airina kindly smiled and opened the door. “I will, thank you for pointing that out.”
“No worries. Take care, Rina.”
“… Sure, Daniel.”
The driver glanced back at the scarf around her neck and smirked mysteriously. His boss is so pretty around the men that not only two, but three men are after her namely Jackson, Daniel, and Matthew. Airina looked at her phone, realizing that it was already past 9 in the evening. Thankfully, due to Matthew’s kindness, she had eaten dinner so she wouldn’t need to cook.
But on the other hand, is Jackson there and waiting for her?
She couldn’t help giggle secretly and excitedly anticipating what kind of present he had for her.
Upon arriving at her destination, she waved her farewell to the driver and turned around with a big smile on her face. But rather than a good sight, something entirely different was seen in her vision.
Nicole.
How long had it been since they last seen each other? Airina didn’t expect that a day would come when she forgot Nicole completely. If she hadn’t appeared before her, she wouldn’t even remember that she existed.
“What a surprise. How did you know my location by the way?”
Nicole rolled her eyes, “What can I do? You’re not that secretive with your address. Are you not afraid some men who have bad motives will come and try to kill you?”
Airina frowned her brows. There was only a time where someone tried to stab her. But it could get more coincidental upon she saw the mischievous smirk of Nicole. As expected, she was the one mastermind of it. Of course, she wouldn’t randomly put the blame on her that hastily.
“I don’t know about what you’re trying to say but I am living my life quite well.”
Nicole raised her brow after noticing a familiar figure approaching from behind then put his arm around Airina’s shoulders.
Nicole called out, “Jackson,” she gritted her jaws, “You… I was searching for you and kept texting you but you didn’t even reply to me. Do you know how insulting that is?”
Jackson helplessly stared at her, tired of this putting whoever blame it is.
He frowned, “I made it clear that our relationship was over. Besides, we never had a clear label, didn’t we? We were just… flings.”
Airina, displeased about the situation lowered his hands from her shoulders and snickered. She came here feeling giddy and excited but all she would see and hear were the exchanges of these two, not minding her? If they’re not insensitive, what are they?
She licked her lower lip and scoffed.
“I don’t want to play things with you guys. Also, be sure that my house is not the supreme court so go away and do your arguments there.”
Jackson grabbed her hand, “Where are you going?”
She tilted her head, “Obviously inside my house, where else do you want me to go?”
He told her in a serious manner, “Let me take care of it and we’ll talk.”
Airin smiled at him, shaking her head in opposition. “No. It’s fine, do what you need with Nicole first.”
Then, she turned away and scowled angrily.
