After returning to the room, I told Carter about the situation. He was quiet for a moment before speaking. "Chloe, we just got back a few days ago, didn't we? I'm not trying to control you, but wouldn't it be better to wait until your mother-in-law is about to give birth to visit?"

"I told Zoey the same thing, but she and Harlan had an argument. She doesn't want to see him. You know she doesn't have many friends, and she's so dependent on me. I couldn't say no" "But..." Carter frowned, clearly worried about me leaving.

"Zoey has already informed Dad. We're taking a private plane, and he'll pick us up at the airport to take us directly to the town. We won't be seeing anyone else, so you don't need to worry." Carter still agreed but asked, "How long will you be gone?"

"Two or three days. I don't have anything important to do in Jaford, and I can't really help you with anything, so you can think of it as a little getaway for me."

Carter pulled me into his arms and said, "I'll miss you while you're gone."

"Then just think, it's not even a hundred hours until we see each other again."

Carter smiled gently. "Alright, I'll talk to Bill about the safety arrangements. I'll take you to the airport tomorrow."

"You're the best, hubby."

"You really know how to get to me." Carter's eyes were filled with nothing but affection. "You better come back soon."

"Mm."

Once I saw he didn't suspect anything, I let out a sigh of relief. Lying to Carter was incredibly difficult-he could detect even the slightest change in my expression, and any slip-up could ruin my plan. Sorry, Harlan, for using you as our shield.

I wasn't sure if it was because I was leaving the next day, but Carter had trouble falling asleep. Over the past few months, we had hardly been apart, except when I was staying at my mom's place. He wasn't used to it, and honestly, neither was I.

But to find the truth, I had no choice but to leave.

The next morning, Harlan, clearly unaware of what was going on, went to work after arguing with Zoey.

Carter quickly drove us to the airport. At the drop-off point, he ignored Zoey standing nearby and pulled me close, kissing me fiercely.

"Let me know when you take off and when you land."
