Chapter 708 Keeping A Distance

At the airport exit, a steady stream of passengers were seen departing.

Without giving it much thought, Calvin opened the car door and stepped out.

After a moment of hesitation, Yannick also followed and left.

Two tall and strikingly handsmen stood next to a multi-million dollar luxury car, attracting more than a few

sidelong glances.

Calvin sent a message to Cecilia that read: Have you gotten off the plane?

Soon after, Cecilia replied: Yeah. I'll be out in a moment.

Calvin: All right. I'll be waiting for you at the exit.

A casual smile played at the corners of Calvin's mouth as he absentmindedly shut off his phone.

Not long after, he spotted Cecilia in the crowd. The woman was dressed in a begonia-colored long dress, her long

hair draped over her shoulders, and her skin was as white as snow. She stood. out remarkably among the crowd.

Years ago, Yannick had caught a glimpse of Cecilia at a gathering. At that moment, upon seeing her again, he

recognized her instantly. Back then, she was just a young girl. When he saw her that day, she had certainly

grown into an attractive woman.

However, there was something off about her face. He thought her face seemed a bit strange.

That day, Cecilia had let her hair down, covering the scar on her right side with spowder. She didn’t want to

frighten the little ones.

As the woman approached, both Calvin and Yannick noticed the wound the size of a palm imprinted on her face.

Calvin's pupils abruptly narrowed, his long, straight legs striding toward Cecilia. He reached out to take her

suitcase. “What happened to your face?”

Calvin's voice carried a hint of concealed anger. It hasn't been long since | last saw her. Why is her face

wounded? When she was by my side, not a single strand of her hair was touched by anyone else. Why has her

face wounded now that she’s with Nathaniel?

Cecilia found her hands empty, raising her head to meet Calvin's concerned gaze. Immediately, she said. “It's a

long story. Let's talk about it once we're in the car. Aren't you still recovering? How cyou're here to pick me

up from the airport?”

On the phone, Calvin mentioned that someone would be going to pick her up from the airport. Cecilia hadn't

expected that he would go himself.

“My health isn’t at its best, but I'm far from incapacitated. | can still pick someone up from the airport. Con.

Let’s get in the car” Calvin placed her suitcase in the car.

Only then did Cecilia notice Yannick standing beside the car. The man was dressed in a suit made in lugrea. His

physique was that of a perfect inverted triangle, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, exuding an exceptional

charm.

“Who might this be?” Cecilia asked.

“I'm Yannick Haves. I'm a friend of Calvin.”

“Hello” Cecilia extended her hand in a friendly gesture toward him.

Yannick, however, didn’t shake her hand. With a fake smile, he said. “Ms. Smith, I'm not like Calvin. I've always

kept my distance from married women.”

Cecilia's hand stiffened. Even though she didn’t understand why he would say such a thing, she could tell he

disliked her.

Sorry, Ill be more mindful.” Cecilia withdrew her hand.

After setting down the luggage. Calvin said to Yannick coldly, “Keep your mouth shut.”

The two seemed to be accustomed to teasing each other. Yannick, unbothered, got into the car first. His eyes

curved in a smile as he turned to say to Cecilia, “Don’t be upset. This is just how | am. | speak my mind and don’t

really understand how to treat women in a gentlemanly manner.”

Cecilia merely gave a slight nod, followed by getting into the car without uttering another word.

The vehicle started moving when Calvin said. “So, what's the actual story behind the injury on your face?”

Calvin wouldn't normally get angry at Cecilia, but upon seeing the scar on her face, he found himself growing

angry.

He didn’t know what happened to her in Clusia, and she didn’t tell him anything.

Cecilia briefly informed him that someone kidnapped Jonathan, intending to disfigure her and force her to leave

Tudela

“Have you found out who did it?” Calvin asked.

Cecilia didn’t want him to get involved. After all. Queenie wasn’t easy to deal with.

“I haven't found anything, but I've now stepped up the security around myself, Jon, and Eli. Such in incident

won't happen again”

After hearing this, Calvin fell silent for a moment. That's good. Are you hungry! Let's go eat something

“All night” Cecilia nodded in agreement.

At the stime, outside the airport, Nathaniel was sitting quietly in the back seat of an unassuming Cadillac «

He listened as Mason reported that Cecilia had gotten into a car with Calvin
