Chapter 1266 Extra Story 21 Of Edgar Awkward (1/2)

Before long, they got their boarding passes from the ticket counter. Both their names were changed. After boarding the plane, they waited for about ten minutes before the plane took off.

Edgar glanced at Maggie, who seemed to be bored out of her mind, and then took out his cellphone to put it beside his ear. After the call was connected, he said, ”I'm coming back to A City. I have something important that I must tend to... I just boarded the plane now.”

Brian wrinkled his well-defined brows slightly and his eyes darkened. He winked at the person in front of him and said, ”And why are you telling me this? ”

Edgar laughed. ”Since when do I need a reason to call you?”

”You don't. But let's face it, you wouldn't call me for no reason.”

An indistinct smile crossed Brian's lips.

”Hmm, I am coming back to finish a task this time...”

Edgar's voice was not loud, but loud enough so that Maggie could hear him. ”Let's have dinner tonight.”

”Sure,” Brian quickly glanced over his watch. ”I will have Tony pick you up at the airport.”

”Okay. I'll see you later...” Edgar hung up the phone and found Maggie eyeing curiously.

”Uncle Three, who were you speaking to on the phone?”

Maggie came up with that nickname just moments after they arrived at the airport. In her words, William told her that when Edgar first enrolled into the army, his number was all three, and since he was more than ten years older than her, he was old enough to be her uncle.

Edgar would usually correct her when she started to address him in this way, but he was not in the mood to say anything right now. He just stared at her blankly and decided to ignore her.

Maggie felt snubbed and figured that she would eventually find out who it was when they had dinner, so she didn't ask anymore. She pulled out a magazine from the back of her seat and flipped through the pages without any interest. She allowed curiosity to play with her mind instead of controlling her thought.

The wheels of the plane scratched the ground and made a thudding noise as it landed.
