Chapter 156 - Chance Encounter (1/2)

The plane landed in Paphos Airport instead of going back to Larnaca because it is much nearer. The airline book all passengers in the Elysium Hotel together with the pilots and crews at the Airline's expense.

Outside the airport, Morgana hailed a cab to take her to the Elysium Hotel but before the taxi arrived a car stop in front of her and she saw a shoes of a man step down from the car.

The man step out of the car, it was Brent. Marcus friend. He was currently investigating a case from the newly established private detective agency that he and his buddies agreed on after they failed to find Simone and Morgana. Brent took a picture of Morgana secretly from the miniature camera that he brought along him and now pinned on the lapel of his shirt. He walked towards Morgana and greet her.

Brent: hello there, Aren't you the one who check-in into my small Inn a few months ago??? Miss Hutchinson, am I right? He asked carefully studying Morgana's reaction.

Morgana looked at the man, the man looks familiar but she can't seem to remember where she met the guy until he mentioned the small Inn.

Morgana: ah, yes, I remember you now. You are the guy at the front desk? Morgana asks trying to confirm.

Brent: Oh, yes..... Yes.... It's me...... It's been a long while though, so it's understandable if you forgot. Brent answered. Fancy meeting you here??? Do you have any relatives here or any business that you visit???

Morgana: Ah, I went to visit a friend in Larnaca, unfortunately, the plane that suppose to take me back to New York has been hijacked and the plane is forced to do an emergency landing here in Paphos.

Brent: Oh, I see, poor you, I am sure that your family is worried sick about you now. Brent said hoping that Morgana would mention something about her mother. But his dismay Morgana didn't say anything.

Morgana just smiled at him as if she knew what he was trying to do and intentionally avoid the topic.

Morgana: Oh, I haven't got your name yet, it is very impolite of me.

Brent: That's okay, I'm the one who approach you and didn't introduce myself. By the way, I am Brent. Brent Davis.

Morgana: Hello Mr. Davis it's nice to meet you. Morgana said as she accepted Brent's hand to shake hands with him.

By the way, I have to go It was a little bit tiring and stressful I guess I need some sleep and rest. Morgana said goodbye to Brent and turned to walk into the waiting cab.
