Chapter 75: Finally free!
«Dear passengers, we’ll begin our landing procedures in twenty minutes. I repeat: landing procedures will begin in twenty minutes. Please fasten your seatbelts.»
It’s early morning when the pilot’s voice echoes through the private jet.
Hakuto jolts awake at the announcement.
He hurriedly gets dressed and rushes to the designated landing area—the one with the typical seats and seatbelts.
But when he gets there, Alexia is nowhere in sight.
Hakuto lets out a deep sigh.
~Where the hell is Deputy Director Kendrow now...? Still knocked out from all that wine...? And she’s supposed to be the adult here... I guess I should at least make sure she’s okay...~
The pilot’s voice echoes again, this time warning that only ten minutes remain until landing.
Hakuto doesn’t know what to do—should he abandon Alexia and let her make a fool of herself in front of the flight crew? Or should he save her reputation, even with so little time left?
His sense of duty pushes him toward the second choice.
Though, the chance to see her one last time in lingerie—the way she looked when he carried her to bed—definitely plays a part in his decision.
