Chapter 285: More Ugly Chapter 285: More Ugly The airport was sleek and modern, its glass walls and towering structures reflecting the city lights.
Inside, it was bustling, people everywhere, the hum of overhead announcements in multiple languages, and the rhythmic sound of rolling luggage filled the space.
Obinna scanned the terminal, his heart pounding as he hurried to catch up.
His eyes searched the crowd, and finally, he saw them, Nnenna and Abuchi, walking swiftly toward the gate.
Without thinking, he rushed forward, ignoring the usual grace and poise of a royal, his voice rising in anger.
“Stop right there!” he shouted, his words cutting through the noise of the airport as he sprinted toward them.
Nnenna and Abuchi turned, the recognition in their eyes instant.
They knew that voice, Obinna.
But they had no intention of letting him stop them.
Their mission was clear, and they weren’t about to back down now.
They turned away, picking up their pace, heading directly for the gate.
Obinna’s frustration boiled over.
He could see them moving toward the boarding area, already in the process of entering the plane.
His stomach sank.
He couldn’t reach them in time.
They were about to board.
Realizing that chasing them further was pointless, Obinna’s mind raced.
There was only one thing left to do.
His royal status would allow him to do this.
“Stop the plane!” he barked, his voice filled with authority.
There was no time to waste.
His eyes darted to his assistant, who had been trailing him closely.
“Get to the tarmac.
NOW!” His assistant didn’t need to be told twice.
He spun on his heel and sprinted down the hallway, his feet pounding against the smooth floor.
But time was slipping away.
Obinna’s gaze followed his siblings as they entered the gate, the seconds ticking by.
