Chapter 338 - Uncle Rory is Here (1/2)

Aleksis sat sadly on one of the terminal seats thinking about how much had happened in the past five days. Now Alaric was leaving for London to take care of his big project with the Meier Group, a project that she knew would greatly affect the lives of almost half of the earth's population.

She hoped that something would happen that would cancel their cooperation. If not now, hopefully in the future.

Maybe if she could open herself to Alaric, she would tell her husband that years ago Alexei and Sophia Meier had almost killed her with poison. Alaric definitely wouldn't want to work with people who had hurt Aleksis ...

In the middle of her reverie, suddenly her phone-watch vibrated and she saw an incoming call from Lauriel.

”Eh ... hello, Uncle Rory, how are you?” she asked quickly.

”I'm good. I wanted to surprise you by suddenly arriving in Singapore, but Terry said that you have been very busy and hard to contact lately. So, I don't want to suddenly come  while you're busy ...” Lauriel said with a happy voice.

”Ahhh ... Uncle when are you coming? This weekend, right?” asked Aleksis. Her depressed mood was instantly replaced by joy. She really missed Lauriel, and his presence in Singapore would certainly make Aleksis feel better.

”I'm at the airport.” Lauriel's tone sounded funny, something that very rarely happened. ”Are you home?”

”Airport in Nairobi?”

”Changi Airport.” Lauriel answered.

”Oh my god ... !!! You have arrived in Singapore ??? That's so fast !!!” Aleksis exclaimed in surprise.

”Why? You don't want me to arrive so quickly?” Lauriel asked teasingly. ”Are you tired of your Uncle Rory now that you are surrounded by lots of handsome men on campus?”

Aleksis fell silent. How could she glance at a handsome men on campus. In her heart there was only Alaric Rhionen, who was now her husband.

Ufff .. guilt suddenly crept over her heart, because she thought about how she got married secretly without telling her parents and godfather who loved her very much.

”Why are you silent? So it's true that you're bored of me because you are now surrounded by a lot of handsome male students?” Lauriel asked again. Aleksis could only cough when she heard his statement.

”Uncleee ... I'm at the airport right now. What terminal are you at, Uncle?” she asked quickly.

”Hmm ... Terminal 1. Why?”

”I'll be there in a second ... Uncle, please wait for me at the arrival terminal!”

Aleksis hurriedly turned off her phone and ran to the terminal where Lauriel was. She really missed her godfather. Her sadness caused by Alaric's departure was immediately lifted and replaced with joy.

Within ten minutes Aleksis arrived at Terminal 1 Arrival. She walked fast while looking for Lauriel, and she finally stopped when she saw her godfather sit in a relaxed manner on a chair. His legs were crossed and his eyes were closed.

”Uncle Roryyyyy ...” she cried from afar, ignoring the views of dozens of people who heard her voice. Lauriel smiled faintly, opened his eyes, and stared at the direction of her voice. He got up when Aleksis jumped up to him and hung on his arms like a little monkey, as she usually did when they met after a long separation.
