Chapter 110: Higher

After their meal that morning, Abi was surprised to hear a helicopter land on the mansion's backyard. She didn't know why but the first thing she thought was that there was an emergency and someone came to fetch Alex. 

Her heart, which was filled with excitement, somehow started to feel a little sad and disappointed,  disappointed that their plan for the day might not happen again. Before she knew it, she was silently praying and hoping that Alex would not leave again. 

When she saw that Alex was heading to the backdoor, Abi couldn't stop herself from chasing him. 

She suddenly clung on his arm as he opened the back door, causing Alex to halt and look at her. 

"Uhm… Alex… I… y-you're not leaving again, right?" she asked, looking both worried and downhearted. Gone was the beaming light that shone on her face since sunrise.
