Chapter 344 The Villa Encounter
The weekend came in the blink of an eye.
Unlike their previous trip on the Princess, Tyler planned a self–driving route this time, driving directly over the newly opened Breezy Tides Bridge
This significantly shortened the journey, taking only four hours to reach Breezy Tides Island.
Sally kept herself occupied along the way, occasionally sharing snacks with Cora and asking for her opinion on the handbag she had bought during a late–night sale on Amazon.
However, it seemed luck was not on her side as she handed her phone to Cora. Just as she did, a news article about Byron popped up.
[Lovely Journey: Marriage on the Way!] In addition to the headline, the article included a snapshot of Byron and Jane.
In the photo, Byron walked ahead, speaking on the phone, while Jane followed closely behind. The butler of the Yoris family was by their side, holding a pink suitcase and a dark gray one.
Cora recognized the dark gray suitcase.
It was the one Byron always used for business trips, or rather, the only style he ever used.
His preferences had a somewhat pathological obsession, whether it was clothing or everyday items. He stuck to the same style and rarely made changes.
Cora could almost confirm that the suitcase carried by the Yoris family staff member belonged to him, and that he was indeed traveling with Jane.
At that moment, Cora felt like someone had twisted her heart into a knot, causing immense sorrow.
Cora despised herself for still holding on to her past relationship, knowing that it was not deep affection but rather a foolish attachment. Yet she couldn’t help but feel distressed by the news of his rumored relationship.
Sally, who was waiting for Cora’s feedback on the handbag, grew concerned when Cora remained silent. She asked, “What’s wrong? Do you think it doesn’t look good? I thought it was pretty nice. Or would you like to see another one?”
As Sally reached over to switch to the link of another bag, she caught a glimpse of the news article that had popped up on Cora’s phone…
Sally condemned herself constantly. How could she forget to unsubscribe this bastard’s news? And now, Cora was sad because she saw gossip about Byron. Sally couldn’t believe how stupid she was. How could she make such a mistake?
After blaming herself, Sally spoke up, “I’ll only pay attention to the news that worths my attention and forget about those stupid ones. Let’s focus on the bags, shall we? It’s much more entertaining.”
While speaking, Sally opened the link of another bag, preventing Cora from staring at Byron’s news.
Matt sat in the passenger seat, unaware of what Cora had seen. He thought she was worried about Flora and reassured her, “Cora, I’ve asked someone to take care of Mrs. Flora Lane at the hospital. You don’t need to worry.”
Tyler chimed in, “If you’re still concerned, I can have my butler go and look after her.”
“It’s not that. I am just feeling a bit tired,” Cora replied. They were constantly busy at the hospital, and it was rare for them to have an outing. Thus, Cora didn’t want to ruin their good mood.
“Take a rest if you’re tired. We’ll arrive at our destination after this turn,” Tyler said, glancing at Cora through the rearview mirror.
Cora smiled softly in response through the mirror and nodded. “Okay.”
Soon, they arrived at Breezy Tides Island.
However, instead of heading to the Yoris family’s resort, they went directly to a private beach.
Chapter 344 The Villa Encounter
There were two villas nearby, and Tyler led them to one of them.
“This is our family’s villa. There are several rooms above, all of which have been cleaned. You can go upstairs and look around, then pick a room for your stay.”
Sally led Cora to check the rooms while looking at another villa next door.
“Is that villa yours too?”
“No.” Tyler was standing nearby. But as soon as Sally asked this question, Cora could sense his uneasiness as he turned to look at her abruptly.
Cora wondered if the villa next door had something to do with her.
At this moment, they heard the engine roaring outside, which attracted their attention.
Then, they saw an off–road vehicle parked steadily in front of another villa.
When the familiar figure came into Cora’s sight, she suddenly understood the meaning of Tyler’s fluster gaze just now…
