Chapter 720 If it were a lemon, I might buy the germ-killing story.

But I kept quiet, took a seat to give the two actors their space.

I had barely warmed my seat when Gregory returned.

"Back already? Didn't even have tfor a smoke, huh?" "I've quit, you know that." Gregory took my hand, looking for praise, "Haven't sneaked one, smell if you don't believe me." He leaned in; I pushed him back, whispering, "What did you say to Dailey?" Gregory: "Nothing at all." Surprised, I asked, "Then why havesit first?" Gregory, as if it were the most natural thing, "In case of turbulence, safer to be seated." I couldn't help but laugh and cry at the stime.

Meanwhile.

Dailey took his seat.

He was in a spot where he could clearly see Christine, which only added to the frustration boiling inside him.

He had loosened his collar two notches but still felt suffocated.

Just as he was about to move, someone blocked his way.

"Dai," Nelly had gotten a first aid kit from the flight attendant, "Lettake care of that wound." Dailey raised a hand to stop her, "No need." Nelly bit her lip, "Dai, you're like family to me, I worry about you." "If your godmother asks about you, I wouldn't know what to say." "We're supposed to keep in touch and look after each other." No one knew the Clarkson family's stance better than Dailey.

He did feel guilty towards Nelly.

But his family valued composure above all.

They wouldn't treat Nelly with special care just out of guilt.

His mother's words about looking after each other were just pleasantries.

Even though she liked Nelly enough to consider her a goddaughter, it was clear she didn't want Dailey and Nelly to develop feelings beyond sibling-like affection.

Still, there was a bond of sorts.

Seeing her eyes glisten, he paused, then let her treat his wound.

I glanced over here and there.

Leaning towards Gregory, I whispered, "Is Dailey putting on a show too?" Gregory teased me, "Or maybe he's reigniting an old flsince he can't have your bestie?" I reached out and pinched Gregory's side.

Gregory misinterpreted my gesture, smiling with a hidden meaning, "Broad daylight, dear wife, maybe control yourself a bit?" For the rest of the flight, it was mostly quiet except when meals were served.

After eating, everyone seemed to fall asleep.

I drifted off too and woke up to find the plane had landed, leaving onlyand Gregory.

"Everyone's gone?" "Yeah."

Gregory folded the blanket off me, helpingup, and we left the plane together The content is on heup, and wee novelenglish.net! My mom and Raleigh were already in the car Gregory had arranged for us.

Christine leaned against the stair railing, with Merritt by her side.

Dailey, hands in pockets, stood by the casual car, seemingly casual but his gaze fixed on Christine. Nelly stood beside her, looking every bit the devoted wife.

It looked peaceful, but I could sense the underlying tension.

"Waiting for me?" I asked Christine as I approached.

Christine nodded, "Just wanted to let you know, Merritt and I are heading somewhere first, won't be joining you at the hotel." "Alright, I'll take your bags for you."

Christine smiled, "Thanks, honey.

Just leave them in mine and Merritt's room. We'll sort them out when we get back."
