"Ahh? So soon? You're not going to stay in Eastcliff for a few more days?"
"I have already settled all of my business, and there is nothing left for me to do here. I will be leaving tomorrow." 7
When Loreen heard this, she said without any hesitation at all, "In that case, I will also leave Eastcliff tomorrow. Let's go back to Aurous Hill together, okay? We can take the same plane back."
Charlie wanted to turn her down. However, when he saw the pleading expression on her face, he could not bring himself to turn her down, s
After all, it was normal for friends to take the same flight together. So, he could not intentionally avoid taking the same flight as her.
So, Charlie said, "Okay. We can go back together, then."
Loreen hurriedly said, "Then, you can give me your identity card details later. I will buy our flight tickets together!" 6
"Okay."
While the birthday banquet was still in progress, Dylan's eldest uncle and second uncle had already made the preparations for him for his cycling trip to
Aurous Hill.
They had arranged for someone to purchase an old Phoenix 28 bicycle and installed a luggage rack on the back of the bicycle so that they could tie his luggage there. After that, they bought him a helmet, a thick down jacket, a sleeping bag, a tent, a water bottle, and s o forth. 8
In truth, they were not all that worried about their nephew. Instead, they wanted him to leave as soon as he was done eating. Otherwise, if he continued dillydallying, Charlie might get angry again. If the Thomas family was implicated in this matter because of Dylan, they would truly suffer a big loss. 6
Sylvia was not even angry when she found out about this. Instead, she hurriedly called her husband, Leonard, who was just done with his work and was preparing to rush over to the birthday banquet. She quickly told him about this matter before she asked him to go home and pack up some luggage for their son so that he would be able to have some clothes and canned food for his journey.
When Leonard heard about this incident, he could not help but feel angry and frightened at the same time. Fortunately, they had not offended the Golding family because of this incident. Otherwise, the Koch family would certainly be in trouble.
Hence, he did not care about rushing over to attend his mother-in-law’s birthday banquet anymore.
Instead, he hurried home to pack some luggage for his
son.
