Chapter 631 - 639: You Have to Miss Me
James Black watched her running closer without slowing down and instinctively opened his arms in her direction. Sure enough, a few seconds later, Jane Sampson rushed into his embrace, laughing somewhat awkwardly as she hugged his waist.
"You didn’t even remind me when I forgot my suitcase!" she complained with a wrinkle of her nose, burying her face in his chest and nuzzling it.
"I just didn’t expect to have married a little fool to bring home," James Black mocked Jane Sampson without any courtesy, and listening to her indignant hum, his laughter grew even brighter.
Jane Sampson slung her small bag over her shoulder, then reached out to take the suitcase from James Black’s hand. She hummed again and, flipping her head, pushed the suitcase and walked away.
Jane Sampson couldn’t help but turn back after walking less than five meters, thinking James Black would have turned and left by now. Unexpectedly, he stood in the distance, motionless, watching her.
Suddenly, she, Jane Sampson, vaguely understood the meaning of reluctance.
He stood there with no conspicuous expression on his face, calm and detached like an ordinary passerby, but his eyes kept following her.
In this airport, so many people come and go.
But to her, Jane Sampson, there was only this one James Black who mattered.
Whether she left or returned, he was always there to see her off and welcome her back.
She had once wanted to walk completely out of his world and become two independent people who didn’t bother each other or even have any connection at all. However, it seemed that her path now was veering in the opposite direction of what she initially wanted.
She had never managed to walk out of his world, and now, she found herself unwilling to leave it and was even tempted to try, greedily, just a bit more greedily, to cling to him.
Jane Sampson’s fingers toyed with the chain of the purse on her chest, hesitating for a long time before she finally turned back and sprinted towards the man who still stood firmly there, the one among the crowd she couldn’t bear to part with.
Jane Sampson charged towards James Black at even greater speed than before, and seeing him stand there with a look of surprise and opening his arms once more, she crashed into his embrace, forcing him to stagger back two steps.
Anxious that she might fall, he held her tightly in his arms.
Jane Sampson didn’t care about anything else, took off her mask, and, standing on tiptoe, kissed him firmly on the lips, her voice trembling slightly, "James Black, you have to miss me."
With those words, she suddenly pushed him away and then turned and ran. This time, she carried her suitcase and didn’t look back in his direction again, running all the way until she entered the VIP Room.
James Black came back to his senses only after Jane Sampson’s figure disappeared from view. He touched his lips instinctively, the spot where she had just kissed him.
In his heart, there was a sudden softness.
He didn’t leave immediately but took out his mobile phone, logged into his WhatsApp account, which still only had one friend listed. He quickly sent out a message, then put away the phone and turned to leave the airport.
In the VIP Room, Jane Sampson handed her luggage and ID card to the waiter and slumped onto the sofa without the slightest interest in the waiter’s thrilled expression upon seeing her ID card.
With both hands over her chest, Jane Sampson worried, without any exaggeration, whether her heart might just thump its way out of her chest.
