Chapter 309 - Janessa

At City Y Airport

"No cold water, no smoking, no staying up late. The first thing we need to do when we enter the hotel is to rest. We will have a tough battle tomorrow. Let's show those people that we are the strongest at playing games!" Randy waved a fan and told the members when they were waiting in the corridor of the airport lounge.

"Randy! So great! So man! "

All but Lord Top shouted the slogan excitedly. She just opened her mouth wide but failed to make any sound. Then there was a tear around the corner of her eyes. She actually yawned in front of Randy!

Randy glared at her, "What are you doing? I said no practice last night. You played games?"

"No."

"Then why are you so sleepy?"

"I don't know. I'm so tired. Are you done?" The Lord Top narrowed her eyes and looked at the row where the bags were placed. "Can I doze for a while?"

"..."

The team members all gave her their down jackets.

"Lord Top, I'll cover this for you, or you'll freeze."

"Then I'll pad this for you."

"With this one of mine! I'll cover it for you, too!"

"Do you want to listen to music? I'll wear earphones for you."

"Lord Top, rest on my shoulders. Come, sit down."

Randy was shocked at it and felt gross. He shifted his gaze from them and caught a sight of a familiar figure who was slowly moving out of the crowd not far away.

"Janessa?"

No wonder Randy noticed her at first glance. People were wearing down jackets or at least wearing coats or bombers while she was in a dress with a trench coat outside. She walked chicly in her sunglasses.

Randy wanted to say hello, but she wore earphones. After the security check, she went to pick up her luggage.

He thought for a moment and texted Armando, "Janessa is back. She just got off the plane."

Armando replied, "I know it."

Randy was shocked and dialed, "What? Why don't you tell me?"

"Should I tell you?"

Randy was speechless.

"I could have taken a ride in your car to the airport."

"I wouldn't take you."

"..."

"Armando, you cannot put women before your friends. If you are like this, I will leave you alone."

"Got it."

"..."

Randy wanted to say something, but Armando said in an urgent tone, "Janessa is here, I'm hanging up."

"..."

Randy fell silent as he looked at the screen. How could he be like this?

Turning around, he saw Lord Top sleeping peacefully on his backpack. The team members were driven to the opposite side and no one dared to disturb her.

Randy fell into silence again. How could he dare to sleep before him?

As soon as Janessa came out of the airport, she saw Armando standing beside his car. She was stunned for a moment before she smiled. "Did you have your hair cut?"

Over the past two months, his hair had grown less than two centimeters. From afar, it was still short, but flattered him. He looked more handsome and stronger.

Armando took off his coat but didn't dare to dress her in it, so he only draped it over her. Then he took the luggage from her and put it into the trunk. He opened the car door for her and went back to the driver's seat after she got on the car.

He was so nervous. After seeing the text message, he didn't sleep tight all night.

"The plane will land at 7 a.m. tomorrow."

Janessa did not tell anyone else to pick her up. She only sent him a text message.

Armando was content with it. He had been afraid that Janessa would ignore or avoid him. But fortunately, it didn't happen.

There were many cars in front of them, so they sit in the car, but no one started a conversation.

After a long time, Janessa asked, "Look at me!"

Armando looked at her through the rearview mirror and then slowly moved his gaze away from her.

Janessa was flipped. She somehow recalled the kiss that night. She pretended to be calm as she looked at the rearview mirror. "Why did you have your hair cut? I wanted to ask you."

"Oh." Armando didn't say much. He cut it just because he wanted to, but he didn't say it. He was afraid that Janessa would think he had it cut for her. He didn't want to give her any pressure.

"What do you mean?" Janessa asked.

Armando thought for a moment and said, "Am I looking bad?"

Janessa didn't answer him.

Janessa would made fun of him if it was in the past. She would have said, "You cut it for some girl? Who is she?"

But now, he couldn't say it, because the girl was her.

"It was neither good nor bad. You just look different." Janessa covered her lap with the blanket in the back seat, and held the hand warmer. Feeling so warm, she narrowed her eyes and said, "You are so sweet."

But she regretted saying that immediately.

Armando smiled, but just for a moment.

Janessa stopped talking. Tapping on her phone, she began to reply the New Year's greetings. There were various alumni gatherings, student reunions, and gatherings for hobbies every year. She was added in several chatting groups. They often went out for a trip or something like that. Occasionally, they would also hold dinner parties. A group of single men and women were enjoying themselves, but Janessa did not like it. People would like at her as if she was an object, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

When she put down her phone, she had arrived at the Mosby's.

Armando put down her luggage and opened the car door for Janessa. She got out of the car with the blanket and returned the down jacket to him. Armando reached out to receive it. The moment when he touched her finger, he couldn't help but pull her into his arms.

Before Janessa could react, he quickly let her go.

The butler and Benson had come out to welcome them. "Welcome back. Come in, you're wearing too little. Come in and warm up."

Janessa smiled and walked in. She could still feel the heat from Armando.

Surrounded by the crowd on the sofa, she saw Armando go upstairs alone.

Entering the room, Armando leaned against the door and calmed himself down. He shouldn't have hug her, but he did it. Would Janessa hate him?

Fortunately, they had come out, otherwise, Janessa would be angry.

Armando clenched his fists and said to himself over and over again, "Don't let her hate you more. It will be fine."

The moment when he touched her finger, the devil within his body was invoked. He not only wanted to hug her, but also wanted to kiss her and even more...

Armando closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He couldn't be with her alone, or he would have no idea what he would do.
