Chapter 1839: Did I Miss It?
On the other side, after separating from Charlotte Thompson, Annie Anne hailed a taxi upon leaving the bar.
Afterwards, she took out her phone, ready to dial Oliver Hudson’s number.
But as she stared at Oliver Hudson’s name in the contact list, Annie Anne’s fingertip paused in front of the screen.
It’s been such a long time since she last met Oliver Hudson.
By now, Oliver Hudson should have already been abroad.
So what significance does it have for her to call him now?
If her call were to disrupt Oliver Hudson’s peaceful life, what then?
Annie Anne’s shoulders drooped slightly, causing the little hope blossoming in her heart to fade once again.
Annie Anne had to admit, she was timid.
Perhaps this was her choice all along; were she truly brave, she would have confessed her feelings back then.
Thinking of this, Annie Anne sighed, placing her hand on the driver’s seat while leaning forward.
"Sorry, driver, could you change the route? I want to go somewhere else."
The taxi driver responded and then asked Annie Anne for the desired destination.
Annie Anne gave a location in the suburbs, which took quite a while to reach from downtown. By the time Annie Anne got out of the car, the sun was gradually setting, and she raised her hand to shield her cheek, gazing into the distance.
Here was a manor Oliver Hudson once brought her to, which was a long time ago.
During a trip Oliver Hudson took with Annie Anne, their car broke down midway here, and they discovered a sea of flowers.
Annie Anne liked it very much, and later Oliver Hudson bought the manor, surprising Annie Anne.
Actually, Annie Anne hadn’t visited this place in a long time; now that she’s here, her mood felt somewhat nuanced.
Annie Anne expected the place to be filled with flowers like before, but to her disappointment, there was nothing here.
Tulips bloom in April and May, and she was a step too late.
Missed it.
This left Annie Anne feeling a bit despondent; she lowered her eyes slightly, her thick lashes shading the last trace of light in her gaze.
Annie Anne lifted her foot and walked along the gravel path into the depths of the manor, although there were still some blooming flowers around, Annie Anne found herself uninterested.
Because these were not what she desired.
Suddenly, Annie Anne felt as though Oliver Hudson had spoiled her.
On her way here, Annie Anne considered staying for a few days, but now it seemed unnecessary.
Annie Anne headed toward the flower fields, her mind replaying scenes from her previous visit, hoping to find some solace.
However, what Annie Anne did not expect was to see an extremely familiar figure upon reaching the flower fields.
This made Annie Anne’s steps halt immediately.
Annie Anne’s first thought was that perhaps the person was a servant managing the manor, but her heart clamored for another answer.
This left Annie Anne standing there at a loss, even absurdly wondering if she was hallucinating.
Otherwise, why would someone, who clearly informed her about leaving Druarus, appear here?
Maybe it was Annie Anne’s intense gaze that stirred the figure standing in the distance, seemingly wanting to turn around.
Annie Anne’s first thought was actually to leave immediately.
