When Fate Intervenes (Giselle and Anthony)

After bidding her friends farewell, Giselle packed her things and got ready to continue her unfinished trip around the world.

Zoey drove her to the airport. Then, she clung onto Giselle tightly as if she was stuck to her like glue.

"You need to stay alert at all times when you're out traveling. Give me a call whenever something urgent comes up. If you see anything fun, nice, and tasty, remember to take a photo and send it to me. "If you ever feel tired and don't know where to go, you can always come back. You know the password to my house anyway..."

Giselle had a look of resignation on her face as she listened to Zoey nag on and on.

"I'm just traveling to those places to visit. It's not like I'm getting married and moving to a faraway location. Momma Zoey, can you not sound like we're parting forever?"

Giselle managed to ruin the mood through her remarks. Zoey could not help but lightly pinch her cheek.

"Momma Zoey is just worried that you'll get so engrossed with having fun and forget all about me. You didn't reply to my message for days last time. That's why I need to make sure you remember this time."

"I explained to you like a few hundred times already that I replied to you through telekinesis. Yet, you're still nagging me about it!"

The two of them bickered like young children would. When it was about time for Giselle to board the plane, the pair of friends finally bid each other farewell. Giselle carried her bag and passed through the security checkpoint. While she was looking for her seat on the plane, Giselle received a message from Zoey. "!!! I just saw someone who looked a lot like Anthony from the back!"

That one sentence roused Giselle's wariness.

She subconsciously scanned her surroundings but did not find that particular face. Giselle relaxed a little.

"You must have mistaken someone else for him."

"I still think it's him. You need to be careful!"

Giselle was skeptical about it.

She had not told anyone about the plan and schedule for her trip. There was no way Anthony would be able to find out anything about it.

To be safe, Giselle sent a message to lan to ask about Anthony.

"Anthony submitted his resignation letter two days ago. I have no idea where he is now."

Giselle had a sense of foreboding when she read the message.

"Anthony resigned? Then, could the person Zoey just saw really be him?" she wondered.

Just then, a familiar voice came from behind Giselle and answered the question she had on her mind.

"Excuse me, madam. Can you let me through?"

Giselle's body stiffened the moment she heard the voice.

She turned around with a blank look on her face and spotted Anthony standing behind her. Anthony acted as though he was surprised to see Giselle there and greeted he en FindNovel

"Giselle? What a coincidence!"

Both of them knew whether this was truly just a coincidence or not.

Giselle had no intention of going along with Anthony's act. She knitted her brows.

"Why are you on this flight?"

"I'm going on a business trip."

Giselle saw that Anthony did not even blink when he lied. She decided to expose him right away.

"Didn't you resign from work already?"

Anthony did not seem embarrassed by the fact that his lies were exposed. Instead, he looked and sounded rather surprised.

"You found out so quickly when I just resigned not too long ago. Do you care about me that much, Giselle?"

Giselle was rendered speechless. She gave up talking to Anthony and went to her seat.

To her bewilderment, Anthony sat

planner. He waved the plane ticket in his hand as Gis

stared at him dubiously.

"We're seated next to each other."

"Are you stalking me? Mr. Grayson, that's a criminal offense."

"Please show me the proof that I'm stalking you, Giselle. Otherwise, that's considered slandering."

Unfortunately, Giselle could not produce any proof. She could only try and talk some sense into Anthony.

"We're divorced now. Shouldn't we go our separate ways and move on with our lives? Why do you keep showing up around me?"

Anthony could tell that Giselle was a bit angry just by looking at her expression. He seemed a little crestfallen.

"You promised to talk things out

with me. Yet, you decided to leave

the country without telling me, & was just worried you might go out of radar again."

Giselle was at a loss for words.

She took a deep breath and turned her eyes to Anthony. She had a friendly and polite smile on her face.

"Fine. What do you want to talk about? Let's do that now. I'm all ears."
