After the phone call ended, Zorion immediately sent a search party to look for Rossie. He even asked someone to search in the airport.
He kept calling Rossie, but he could not get through to her. While he was busy looking for her, Rossie suddenly called him.
"Where are you?" Zorion's voice changed. It sounded a little hoarse.
At that moment, Rossie was already preparing to enter the boarding gate.
"I'm at the airport," Rossie replied faintly.
"Come back! I'll come and pick you up!" Zorion immediately dashed out of school.
Rossie thought for a moment. "You promised me that you will let me go once we find your sister, but you lied. Zorion, I didn't mean to escape. I will come back, but right now, you're like a huge obstacle in my way, preventing me from leaving. I'm scared."
"What are you scared of? I don't bite." Zorion gritted his teeth as irritation pricked at him. He got in the car and asked the driver to head to the airport. The driver immediately knew what was going on and hurriedly stepped on the accelerator. However, the odds weren't in their favor that day as they kept running into red traffic lights.
"You don't bite, but I hate that you treat me like a prostitute. I hate that kind of life."
"You know that I'm only fifteen. I'm too young to have sex with you. I'm not a prostitute."
Although Rossie had a crush on Zorion, she could not accept such a request. She could no longer tolerate Zorion's endless pestering.
"I didn't... I did not treat you like a prostitute. I..."
It was hard for Zorion to confess his feelings for her. He had once confessed his feelings to Raeleigh, but was rejected. He could not bring himself to say it to another person because he was afraid of being faced with another rejection. Although he could not say it, it did not mean that he did not like her.
"Drive faster." Zorion could only order the driver to step on the gas.
Rossie knew that she would definitely be able to leave this time, so she wasn't worried.
After thinking for a long time, Rossie said, "Deanna is with Jacky. I'm about to board the plane. Remember the time Raeleigh handed you a bank card with all the money she returned to you but you refused to accept it? I just want to let you know that Santiago gave me the bank card, and I think I deserve to have it. There's a total of seven million dollars. I've withdrawn everything and the money is with me now."
"I will use the money in the future. As for what happened between us, I'm sure you are aware that you were the one who forced me into this all along. I'm just going to take the seven million dollars as compensation. I'm sure it's just a drop in the bucket for you."
"I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself."
After that, Rossie turned off her phone and entered the boarding gate. Zorion gritted his teeth and hurriedly called his men who were at the airport.
"Get the police and have them seal the airport. I've received news from a reliable source that there's a bomb on one of the planes. It must be investigated before anyone gets hurt!"
The driver frowned, immediately realizing just how powerful Zorion was!
Soon, they arrived at the airport and everywhere they turned, people were fleeing out of the building. Zorion's men were waiting for him at the entrance of the airport and walked up to him as soon as he got out of the car.
With that, Zorion hurried into the airport with airport staff behind him. As they walked, they asked, "Mr. Zorion, is there really a bomb on one of the planes?"
Zorion glanced at the staff and did not reply.
The airport went on a complete lockdown because of the supposed bomb. An announcement was made and the authorities had grounded all planes. No one was allowed to leave at this moment.
The airport was flooded with people. As soon as Zorion appeared, the atmosphere in the airport changed.
