Chapter 443 - He Doesn’t Want to Miss Another Five Years (1)
There wasn’t even a shred of respect for her; he had never bothered asking for her opinion on anything.
What did he treat her as?
Just because he liked her, did that mean he could deceive her and hide things from her?!
Did he know how much she had worried herself over the issue of the design drafts and whether she had to go to jail for it?
Did he ever take her words to heart? She had told him that she wanted a divorce. She didn’t want the marriage to be maintained through such means. All she wanted… was sincerity and trust.
If he were to tell her that he loved her, and that he would trust her unconditionally, she would stay for him!
Zhuang Nainai’s tears rose to her eyes. She wanted him to make her stay, but not through methods like these.
She had asked Gu Deshou beforehand. She knew her mother was in a state called Kentucky, and the convalescent home was called Madero.
As for the rest, she had no idea. She was even clueless as to how to get to the state of Kentucky.
A wave of helplessness began to rise up from the depths of her heart. Standing in the midst of the crowd in the airport, she felt at a loss as to where to go.
The airport ground staff and tourists passed her by. She, on the other hand, stood in front of the counter, helpless.
Until… a ground staff couldn’t bear it any longer and walked over. “Hi there, Miss, can I help you with anything?”
With that, he assessed her appearance, then pointed to somewhere beside him. “There are police officers over there. If you’ve lost anything, you can ask them for help.”
With a dispirited look, she glanced at the staff. “They can help me… no matter what I’ve lost?”
The staff nodded. Unable to resist herself, Zhuang Nainai burst out, “So if I’ve lost my heart, can they help me get it back?”
So, Miss, you’re trying to play games with me? the staff thought.
Zhuang Nainai sighed, then reached out her arm to rub her chest. The emptiness and the pain she was feeling in her heart made her unsure of what to do.
Taking a deep breath, she took a step forward toward the counter. “I’m going to the state of Kentucky. How do I get there?”
The lady at the counter immediately replied, “Miss, there isn’t any direct flight. You can first get to Chicago, then take a connecting flight over to Kentucky.”
Zhuang Nainai nodded. “Okay.”
After buying her airplane ticket, she decided to go to the departure lounge to while away the time while waiting for her flight.
Just as she was walking toward the lounge, she felt someone grab her wrist.
She turned around. What greeted her was Si Zhengting’s dark expression and his low voice. “What are you doing?”
Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and defiantly raised her head. “I’m going to look for my mother.”
“I’m not allowing you to go.” His tone was so authoritative that it left no room for negotiation. Even the fingers he had on her wrist were tightening.
