Seeing Jason's eyes filled with hidden grievance, Vivian curled her lips into a smile and gently squeezed his hand, soothing him. "How could that be, Jason? Aren't we already waiting for the boarding?"
"But you've been looking around restlessly and you seem really upset. Vivian, if you really don't want to go, I can go by myself."
Jason took a step back, pouting.
He had expected the woman to reassure him again, promising that she would go with him. But this time, Vivian pursed her lips, thought for a few seconds and then softly said, "Alright, you fly ahead first. Once I'm done with some work at the company, I'll come join you."
In fact, the recent company matters didn’t require her to stay behind at all.
Vivian couldn't explain why she suddenly didn't want to go on vacation.
Was it because I was sulking with her?
No, that couldn't be it.
In her heart, I had always been just a stand-in for Jason. How could she neglect the true love of her life for someone so insignificant like me?
Seeing Jason staring at her in surprise, Vivian gave him a perfunctory kiss on the forehead, repeatedly assuring him that once she finished her work, she would immediately fly over to accompany him to the game.
