Bab 903: Self-help

The flight back to Ludus was uneventful, but it felt like the longest flight of Harry's life. Every time he glanced at Jade, she was either looking out the window or had her eyes closed, her face set in an expression of quiet determination.

When they finally landed and disembarked, Harry felt a sense of relief mixed with sadness since this wasn't the way he had envisioned their return to be.

They collected their bags and as they made their way to the exit, Jade sighted Tom and Bryan, and she couldn't help feeling an overwhelming flood of relieve, glad that she didn't need to be in Harry's presence any longer.

She watched Tom say something to Bryan as they met them halfway, and Bryan nodded before looking her way and flashing her a smile, "Hey, baby! I missed you," Bryan said, holding out his arms to her, and Jade walked into his arms and sighed deeply as she embraced him.
