Chapter 765
Paige was in a mad rush, tearing towards the airport in her car.
She was supposed to have been home an hour ago.
However, unexpectedly,on the way home, a series of car crashes occurred in front of them, and they were blocked
for more than an
hour
Just as she hit the airport expressway, Baillie called.
‘Mrs. Scott.”
*Baillie, I’m on my way to the airport now. can you wait for me?” Paige said tearfully. “The traffic is just terrible.”
“You’re headed to the airport?” Baillie sounded sunrised. “Weren’t you at Ivy’s place?”
“Yeah, I got the car keys! Paige responded, “Just wait for me, okay?”
“But I’m already home.” Baillie sounded pretty frustrated.
Paige: “???”

“They bumped it up. Baillie gave a smiled helplessly, Come back quick”
Paige: …
She immediately rerouted, picked the shortest path, and started driving back.
“Don’t worry. And I’ll wait for you at the complex entrance” On the phone, Baillie could sense Paige was a little
angry and comforted, “I knew you
had a tough day at the construction site, so I wanted to surprise you by coming home early so you wouldn’t have to
go to the airport. Sorry for the hassle.”
Paige complained, “But I’m already on my way.”
“My bad!” Baillie quickly apologized. “How about I take you to Old Town for your favorite BBQ tonight?”
“Deal!” Paige instantly brightened up.
After hanging up, Baillie looked at the cat.
“Have you put on a little weight?” Baillie bent down, held up the cat’s belly, and estimated its weight, “Ivy must
have taken good care of you.”
The cat tilted its head and meowed unhappily.
“Not happy?” Baillie snorted at the cat, “Fine, then I won’t play with you. I’m going to pick up my wife!”
He put down the cat, changed his shoes, and walked out the door in high spirits, heading toward the community
entrance.
Baillie used to have a rather loose sense of time.
But after this trip back to school, for the first time, Baillie felt like each day dragged on forever, and he fully
understood what “home is where the heart is” meant.
The flowers in the community public area were beautiful in the early summer evening.
Before, Baillie never cared much for the scent of flowers.
But tonight, he found it rather pleasant.
After about a ten–minute walk, Baillie arrived at the entrance.
He estimated the time and figured Paige would be driving back soon,
Just then…
“Baillie?”

Dressed professionally and wearing delicate makeup, Lennon Crawley was all smiles, “Weren’t you back at school? I
saw a group photo with you on Instagram from some classmates.“”
“I finished what I had to do and returned, Baillie replied, showing no interest in continuing the conversation.
But Lennon had been waiting for this chance to catch Baillie alone for a long time. How could she just let it slip
away? “What a coincidence. I was thinking of looking you up.”
“Is something up?” Baillie asked.

The research direction of the company (m about to join is the same as yours, so I wanted to ask you for some
advice Lennon said, putting on a casual front.
“Sorry, but as you know, I just got married, and there’s a lot on my plate. I won’t have the time‘ Balllle timed her
down without hesitation. This took Lennon by surprise.
While everyone knew Baillie was a bit of a cold fish he was usually willing to help or refer someone else to help with
