Chapter 230 A Difficult Person to Deal With
I wasn't sure when Drew spotted me, but now he's heading straight for us.
Faris had both kids in his arms, I was dragging the luggage with one hand and had my other arm linked with Faris's, trying to stay cool and keep moving forward.
Faris glanced at me, a bit of a flattered smile on his face.
By the time Faris turned back, Drew was already in front of us.
Drew gave me a once-over, then eyed the suitcase I was dragging, a faint smile on his lips.
"Fancy running into you again. Off on a trip?"
"Do you know him?" Faris asked, looking at me curiously.
I shook my head, forcing an awkward smile.
Drew's eyes, hidden behind those big sunglasses, seemed to flick over to Faris. He smirked, "You sure switch partners a lot."
His words made my heart skip a beat, but I quickly pulled myself together.
I figured he must've seen me with Jason yesterday, and now seeing me with another guy, that's why he said that. "Where are you headed?" Drew asked again.
This was starting to feel less like a random encounter and more like an interrogation, and it was making me nervous. "Let's go, or we'll miss our flight," Faris said.
I nodded, and we walked around Drew, continuing forward. Luckily, he didn't try to stop us or say anything else.
I had already thought it through; in a public place like the airport, Drew wouldn't dare to pull anything. After all, he's a fugitive. If he tried something, I'd scream, and security would swarm him from all directions. He'd be the one in trouble. I knew Drew wasn't afraid of dying, but since he managed to escape death once, he must have a plan. Facing me, he wouldn't want to risk everything.
Just then, a flight must've landed, and a crowd of people was coming out with their luggage.
Drew suddenly strode past us, heading towards a tall guy in an overcoat and black leather boots, also wearing big sunglasses, and took the suitcase from his hand.
The guy patted Drew's shoulder and said something with a smile. Judging by Drew's demeanor, he seemed pretty respectful towards him.
So Drew was here to pick someone up!
For Drew to risk getting caught to pick someone up, that person must be important.
As Faris and I walked past them, the guy suddenly called out.
"Faris?"
His voice had a hint of doubt, like he wasn't quite sure.
Faris stopped and looked at the guy indifferently.
"And you are?"
