(Author’s POV)
William was also overwhelmed with emotion just like his wife. They have lived here, created so many memories in this place. It was hard for both of them to part ways like that. They never thought such a day would ever come but for their daughter’s sake, they could do everything.
Myra, when she saw her parents face, was overcome with guilt. She lowered her head as she rubbed her nose, it was stinging and itchy. Even the lively Wendy was quiet, her eyes a bit red.
Each of them, had fond reminiscences tied to this place, this has been their safe haven.
Oliver Grey, who had been waiting for them for quite a while now cleared his throat to get their attention, "Ahem~ ahem .... Mr. Miracle, Mrs. Miracle, we need to get to the airport soon."
William nodded and with one last glance, he turned around and made his way towards the car. Sandra, Myra and Wendy followed behind.
Oliver took the wheels, while William settled in the passenger seat. The remaining three, they all took the backseat. Myra gazed at her home once again with a look full of determination, ’Whatever sacrifices my family had to make today, I won’t let it go to waste.’
The car wheeled away at a steady pace. "Mr. Grey, thank you for taking us to the airport," William spoke, his words full of gratitude.
"I am just following CEO Yates orders and doing my job, Mr. Miracle. No need to thank me," Oliver was humble with his words.
William made some small talk and Oliver gladly conversed with him. Remembering something, Wendy interrupted their talk, "Ummm~ Mr. Secretary .... I have been meaning to ask you something. May I?
"You can call me by my last name, Ms. Miracle .... And please feel free to ask anything," Oliver replied politely.
"Yelena sis, is she going with us? Are we taking the same flight?" Wendy inquired.
Wendy and Myra have been busy with a lot of stuff for the past two days, so they didn’t get anytime to talk to Yelena. Though, Myra called her twice but both times her phone was showing that she was out of coverage network.
"Uhh~ ... Ms. Yates is not going to take Esteria’s flight with you all," Oliver said, his words made everyone look at him with a confused face.
"Yelena isn’t coming? Why? Did something happen?" Myra pressed on, questioning him with a stern gaze.
"Mrs. Yates senior has been feeling a bit under the weather. So, Ms. Yates is spending time with her these days at the Yates Manor. She will join you next week," Oliver clarified.
All of them nodded in understanding as William question, "Is it something serious?"
"It is because of old age," Oliver left it at that.
Myra unlocked her phone and messaged Yelena, "Hey, heard your grandma is sick? Is she alright?" She sent it but there was no reply, even after five minutes, not even after they have arrived to the airport. Myra was about to call Yelena, when Oliver said, "We have arrived at the airport."
She got distracted, putting her phone in her denim jeans pocket, she got out of the car.
Oliver helped them with their luggage, as all of them made their way inside the airport. For some reason, the place was packed with people, some arriving from some other place while some departing for their destination.
Myra clasped Wendy’s hand tightly as it was densely crowded. There seems to be commotion near the entrance as crowd was gathered. Several teenagers were cheering and hooting as they were waiting for some celebrity’s arrival.
"Why are all these people blocking the entrance? They all seem to have some sort of cut out of someone," Sandra commented.
"Mom, it is Caleb Hawthrone, the famous movie star. Pheobe told me that he was having a fan meet in Damona. I didn’t know he was arriving today. They are all his fans and must be here to cheer for him," Wendy explained excitedly. She too was a huge fan of him.
