The Divorced Girlfriend

Chapter 5

Linnea got to the airport, she stood outside the car facing Madam Susan who rolled the window glass down, “Bye” Linnea uttered.

“Wait Linnea,” Madam Susan said, taking off her favorite ring from her finger and giving it to Linnea

“I don’t want you to feel alone,” she uttered. Linnea closed her eyes as she fought the tears that welled up in her eyes from falling.

“This motherly character doesn’t suit you,” Linnea said and chuckled, taking the ring from her

Madam Susan scoffed, “Be safe, brat!”

A faint smile appeared on Madam Susan’s face as she waved and soon the driver drove off and rolled the window glass back up

“Chen!” Madam Susan called her driver

“Yes, ma” He answered

“Do you think that she’d be fine by herself?” Madam Susan asked with her eyes closed and her back on the car chair.

“Yes, Linnea is a strong girl, ma, but if you want me to assign someone to watch her, then I will do that,” Chen said

“No, there’s no need. She’ll survive, Divorce won’t break her. Besides, she’s going to be in the company of her friends,” Madam Susan continued. “Take me to the hospital.”

...

Linnea dragged her luggage with her and lined up in the queue so that could check in. The plane will be leaving in another 20 minutes. She stared at everyone walking through the hall and she face-slapped herself when she started imagining herself and Anthony in the place of every couple walking by.

She took her phone out of her pocket and browsed through it. She received a notification that Elenor updated her i********: story and she instantly went to check it out.

“Hm.” She chuckled softly as she viewed the story.

...

In Brown’s company, Enzo tossed the file about Linnea into the waste bin. He exited his office, dropping a file on his secretary’s desk. He walked past her without uttering a single word,

“Okay sir,” His secretary said. She knew what her boss wanted her to do, even without him telling her.

Enzo stepped into the elevator with his assistant. He strolled through his phone and passed his laptop to his assistant, waiting patiently for the elevator to get to the last floor.

They hastened their steps as they exited the building and got into Enzo Maybach.

“Kim! We aren’t forgetting anything, right?” Enzo asked, just to be sure.

“Yes sir, we aren’t forgetting anything,” Kim responded

“Sir, about the girl...”

“What girl?” Enzo asked without sparing a glance at Kim.

“Linnea Adams...”

“Forget about her!” Enzo said, cutting Kim off.

The car stopped in front of the Airport. Enzo got out of the car and the driver drove off. Kim always follows Enzo to all his meetings across the world. They checked in and got on the plane to China, business class.

As soon as Enzo stepped into the business class part of the plane, his eyes immediately caught sight of Linnea. She sat next to the window with a mirror and lip gloss on her hand.

“Girls,” Enzo whispered and rolled his eyes

Kim turned to his boss and trailed his gaze to see Linnea sitting by the right side of the plane next to the window. “Woah,” Kim uttered, seeing her sweatpants. He loved her fashion brand, but other fashion brands had surpassed it.

Enzo waved at Kim to find somewhere to sit. Enzo sat beside Linnea, who was ignorant about who was sitting next to her. She said, “You’re sitting on my handkerchief” Enzo was so focused on her that he didn’t check the chair he sat on before sitting.

He stood to see his and saw that she was right, he picked it up and passed it to her but without looking at him she said, “There’s no use for it again if you weren’t so blind to sit on it then I wouldn’t have to dump it so soon”

“What? Are you this rude to everyone you meet?” Linnea caught the voice and swiftly turned to see the face.

“Enzo” She scoffed

“Are you stalking me?” she asked

“You wish!” Enzo beckoned for the flight attendant to come closer, then he gave her the handkerchief, “Trash this” he uttered

“You think too highly of yourself and that’s why are so rude, humble yourself a little,” Enzo advised and Linnea who was already having a bad day said, “You must be out of your mind, You are the rude one here, and here and didn’t seat on my handkerchief then would have no reason to insult you,” She stood to her feet and found another seat far from Enzo and that was beside Kim

The plane took off and Linnea planned to through the trip, this week had been the worst week of her entire life, first, she found out that all her effort had gone down the drain when she found out about the current status of her business, secondly, Anthony came to her with a divorce paper which she signed and she was trying to cope, the last thing she needs is for anyone to disturb her peace

“Ma’am, we have arrived in China,” the flight attendant said, leaving Linnea in shock, “So quick,” she thought and noticed that Enzo and Kim were the only one left in the business class

She hastened her steps out of the plane as soon as she caught Enzo staring at her.

“So rude!” Enzo hissed when she was out of sight

“Damn...” Kim muttered

“What?” Enzo arched an eyebrow

“She left her ring,” Kim said, rushing out of the plane to look for her but couldn’t find her. Enzo took a few steps closer to him holding their luggage, and then he hit Kim on the shoulder, “Take our bags” He uttered and Kim said “Sorry boss but she has holding this ring and I assume that it’s important to her”

“Let me see,” Enzo said, and a smirk appeared on his face as he took a proper long look at the ring, “It’s a rare kind” he shoved the ring into his pocket, “She’ll come for it if it’s important to her”
