After ten minutes of driving, the convoy arrived at the hangar where Kathleen’s plane was parked.
Charlie had originally thought that Kathleen’s plane would be a luxurious business jet like a Gulfstream G650. However, he never expected it to be a huge Boeing 747 that was currently parked in the hangar.
This plane was a symbol of wealth and power, just like the United States President’s Air Force One.
The crew had completed all the pre-takeoff checks and inspections, and more than ten people, including the captain and the chief steward, were waiting as they stood together at the bottom of the plane’s spiral staircase.
The convoy stopped one after the other, and everyone got out of the cars. Charlie glanced at Marianne, who was next to him. When he saw that she was pursing her lips without speaking, he spoke up and said, “Miss Marianne, let’s get out of the car.”
Marianne raised her head and looked at Charlie with a shy look in her eyes as she said softly, “Mr. Wade, I wonder when will be the next time you come to Hong Kong?”
Charlie smiled and said, “It depends on the situation. I will definitely come if there is a chance.”
Marianne nodded lightly and said, “Please take care then, Mr. Wade. Remember to tell me in advance when you come to Hong Kong.”
“No problem.” Charlie readily agreed, but at the same time, he felt somewhat melancholic even though he looked happy on the surface.
He seemed to be somewhat leisurely during this recent period of time because he was accompanying his wife, Claire, to attend classes in the United States. However, once this period of time had passed, he would be busy once again. At that time, he would not have the time or opportunity to come to Hong Kong.
However, Charlie had no clue that Marianne, who was next to him, was already secretly ready to head to Oskia for development.
Marianne did not plan to tell Charlie about her plans yet either.
She thought that she would go and secure the position at Aurous University first before she headed to Aurous Hill to surprise Charlie in person.
Immediately after that, Charlie and Marianne got out of the car together. Kathleen, who had gotten out of the car first, was already waiting under the spiral staircase.
