Chapter 1016

After rummaging through my bag, Shannon broke down. "They really aren't here."

She returned my bag to me and said anxiously, "Could you have dropped them in one of the shops we visited earlier? Why don't we go over and look for them?"

"But we’re about to board the flight.” Nina was equally anxious. "We visited a lot of shops earlier. We'll miss the boarding time if we go back."

Dazaray looked at me and said indifferently, "If there's no other way, then you'll have to go back and find them yourself. We'll wait for you at the boarding gate."

"Don't say that. What if she can't find them? Do you suppose she stay here alone?" Shannon said with displeasure.

I glanced at the time. If I went back to look for them, I would still miss the flight even if I was quick enough.

However, there was no better way. I could only try my luck.

I looked at Shannon and the rest, saying, "Wait for me at the boarding gate. I'll go back and look for my papers. I should be able to find them very quickly."

I could not let them stay here with me if I could not find them.

"What if you can't find them?" Shannon was a little worried. "We can't come out after we get past security.”

After a pause, she continued, "I'll go look for them with you. I’m in no hurry to go back, and my family won't b e that worried about me either. If we can't find them, then I'll just stay here with you for a few days. Just think of it as though we're on vacation."

Dazaray sneered. "Put away that bootlicking face of yours, Shannon. Those who have no clue might even think that you're really close with her. You're just trying to cling to her because she comes from a superior background."

It was completely meaningless for her to say those words now. She was simply trying to stir up trouble.

Shannon had never liked her, and after hearing what she said, she was so furious she nearly raised her fist.

I quickly pulled her. "Enough. Don’t worry about me. I can manage alone."

"I want to come with you to look for them!" Shannon shouted.

She was young and especially rebellious. The more others refused to let her do something, the more she wanted to do it.

Before I could refuse, she dragged me with her and walked outside.

I stopped persuading her when I knew I could not win the argument.

Sensing someone following behind us, I looked back and saw Jordan. I was slightly stunned and then quickly said, "Wait for us at the boarding gate."

"There's no rush. There may be a delay," he said blandly without much emotion.

"How do you know there’ll be a delay?" Shannon asked. "You don’t own the airport."

Jordan laughed. "It’s going to rain heavily."

Shannon froze and said no more.

She then leaned closer to my ear and said, "I can't help but think that Jordan is very hard to understand. Are most rich young masters like that?"

I pursed my lips. "Not necessarily.”

We went looking in several shops but still could not find my documents. Shannon started to panic. "I was holding your bag securely just now. It doesn't make sense that they had fallen out."

After a pause, she seemed to have recalled something and looked at me. She said sternly, "Let's go look again."

I held her hand. "Forget it. I probably left them in the villa or dropped them somewhere else. Why don’t you go back with them? I'll go back and do the paperwork again."

"How could it be that simple? You just applied for the papers. They’ll ask to verify your identity again. It’ll take another half a month if that happens."
