Chapter 1188 He Has Waited for Three Years
Jamarion went abroad alone, and Alana had arrived at the airport early waiting to pick him up.
She did not even meet Jamarion once during her three years abroad.
In the first year she left the country, her parents often came to see her as they missed her a lot, and she spent the new year abroad as her parents and brother came to Ascana.
In the second year, since her grandmother was under the weather, she went back once to visit her. But it was not a holiday when she returned home. Jamarion was studying at school in the Capital, so they did not meet each other.
That year, she went back home to celebrate the new year with her parents, while Jamarion did not. She heard that he was doing research in the laboratory with his mentor, and Nina and Cameron went to the Capital to spend the new year holiday with him. But, the family of three only stayed together for a day, and then Jamarion buried himself in his work.
In the third year, her parents and Alaric came to Ascana to spend the new year holiday with Alana once again. Since Alaric had to film a movie in Ascana, they came together to meet her.
After Alaric finished his filming, he came to them and the family of four reunited together again for New Year.
Actually, the most important reason why Julian took Emelia and Alaric to Ascana to spend the new year with Alana was that he wanted to keep Alana away from Jamarion. It was his selfish motive as a father.
Julian thought that Jamarion would give up on Alana if Jamarion had not seen her for three years. Although he knew that they could contact each other on WhatsApp, he believed merely contacting each other through video calls or sending messages could not help them bond with each other.
Julian talked to people about his daughter and Jamarion, hearing that they just occasionally sent blessings to each other on festivals or birthdays, which indicated that they were not close to each other at all.
As time went by, Julian even started to doubt that his sixth sense was wrong. Could it be that Jamarion had no affection for Alana at all? Otherwise, how could Jamarion not frequently contact Alana during the three years of separation?
In fact, Julian underestimated Jamarion’s affection for Alana. He didn’t show his love because he was waiting for a proper time. Though he sometimes wished desperately time could pass quickly, he could recover his composure soon.
He waited patiently to be a grown-up and had enough faith in Alana. He believed that she would focus on her studies during these three years instead of falling in love with any other guys.
He was able to distinguish what he should do now at his age, that was, study. Only if he studied diligently could he be excellent enough to pursue his happiness in the future. After all, the girl he loved was very excellent.
The faith sustained him, and thus he could endure three years of separation and complete his university studies in three years and go abroad early for further study.
This year, he finally became a grown-up. It meant that he could pursue the girl he liked. He hoped to marry her once he reached the legal age of marriage if possible.
When he saw the girl he missed very much in the airport lobby, Jamarion really wanted to go up to her and hug her, but she was frozen in place as he approached her, seemingly unable to recognize him.
Jamarion could only give up the idea of hugging her. He was afraid of being taken as a hooligan by her.
He pushed his suitcase with one hand and greeted her, “Nana.”
He called her by the pet name he had for her because he was trying to show his affection for her in that way.
Being addressed so intimately, Alana took some time to come back to her senses.
She took off the sunglasses on the bridge of her nose and widened her pretty eyes in surprise, staring at him and saying, “Jamarion? How come you’ve grown so tall? I didn’t even recognize you.”
Not only had he grown taller, but he had also become much more handsome. But Alana was too shy to speak this out.
Jamarion was too eye-catching in the crowd. He had his mother’s good looks, and looked handsome even in a simple white T-shirt and casual pants.
She saw him at once when he walked out with the crowd, but because Jamarion had changed so much and they hadn’t seen each other for three years, she didn’t recognize him.
At that time, she was attracted by his handsome face, but she didn’t expect that he was actually Jamarion.
At this moment, looking at this big boy who was much taller, Alana couldn’t help but smile and sigh, “Girls’ appearance changed a lot as they grow up. Seems it also works on boys.”
She chuckled and explained the reason why she did not recognize him.
Jamarion fixed his eyes on her delicate face without blinking, and said with love and affection: “You’ve changed too and become more beautiful.”
In fact, he wanted to say she looked much more charming than before and he could not even take his eyes off her. However, he was afraid that she would sense his feelings for her and get startled. Thus, he restrained from saying sweet words.
He had waited for three years, and he would not be hasty in confessing his love.
Besides, since he had come to Ascana, he had a lot of time to be around her and make her know his feelings.
Hard as he tried to hide his feelings, his eyes betrayed his affection for her.
Feeling his affectionate gaze, Alana could not help getting bashful. She immediately looked away and said, “Let’s go then.”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Having said this, she tried to take over Jamarion’s suitcase to do the honors.
“It’s fine.” Jamarion did not want her to help him carry it, so he hurriedly raised his hand to stop her. Then he accidentally touched her fair arm.
When he touched her skin, Jamarion got stiff for a moment and then withdrew his hand calmly, but he was shocked on the inside.
In his eyes, the accidental touch was even more thrilling than holding hands, especially when they reunited after a long separation and he had hidden his love for so many years.
Alan felt that her arm seemed burning. There was central air conditioning in the airport, so Jamarion’s fingers were a bit cold. Even so, the part of her skin that was touched grew hot and even her face blushed.
She despised herself inside. ‘Alana, what the hell are you doing? He is a younger brother to you!’
“Let’s go. My car pulls over outside.”
She said while leading Jamarion out of the airport lobby, trying to relieve the uneasiness she had just felt.
