Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 538

During the two-hour flight, Tina stared out the airplane window into the pitch-dark clouds, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts that never ceased.

It seemed the pilot sensed her urgency, arriving at Capital City Airport ahead of schedule.

No sooner had the plane come to a stop than Tina was making her way to the exit, striding through the cabin door, passing the flight attendant in her purple uniform who was wishing passengers a pleasant journey from the open cabin door.

Tina's brisk pace halted abruptly, her peripheral vision catching sight of Phillip's private jet through the glass of the jet bridge.

The tarmac was shrouded in darkness, yet somehow, perhaps through some telepathic connection, she spotted Phillip's tall figure crossing the tarmac and ascending the steps to his jet. Tina instinctively opened her mouth to call out to him, before realizing he was too far away.

She broke into a sprint, startling an elderly man in her path, apologizing with a quick, "Sorry!" as she dashed around a corner and out of sight.

She raced through the jet bridge, sprinted across the seemingly boundless expanse of the airport terminal, yet the private hangar was too far; by the time she got there, the plane might already have taken off.

Exhausted, Tina stopped to fish her phone out of her pocket.

This was crazy.

She dialed Phillip, who answered after a few rings. Before he could speak, Tina blurted out, "Wait for me."

Phillip quickly caught on, "You're at the airport?"

"I just got off my flight, almost missed you."

Having stated the obvious, Tina suddenly felt the gravity of her words.

She had, indeed, almost missed Phillip.

Phillip promised to wait, and Tina continued to jog. Expecting to find Phillip on his plane, she was instead greeted by his familiar figure standing alone on the vast tarmac.

Under the deep night sky, his mere presence conveyed a serene and solid strength.

Tina ran toward him, momentum unbroken, and threw herself into his arms.

Phillip caught her firmly, enveloping her in his embrace.

"Why are you back so soon? Weren't you supposed to come back tomorrow?" he asked.

"I wanted to see you," Tina lifted her head from his chest, "You went to see my dad, and you also visited the Lewis family, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me?"
