Chapter 469 Be Patient

OCEANIA AIRLINES

During the flight, Carmen recalled everything that had happened in the past month.

Everything starts in a fairytale. However, a tragedy entered the picture. She finally got a hold of her Prince Charming, whom she had an unrequited love for years.

Then, how sad that she is not the princess in the story but the third party. In the end, True Love prevails.

Setting aside the thought, if the servants did not see her leave. She would not learn that Ivy escaped from the hospital last night, and John rushed over to search for her.

God, that was very painful, even if she and John had already broken up. How much if she insisted on staying by his side, throwing herself at John till the end?

Then, she is just a hindrance for John to win over Ivy\'s heart once she moves on in the future and forgets her husband, Jay.

Contemplating, Carmen could not stop welling up throughout the flight. Gladly no one would notice her crying; otherwise, it would embarrass other passengers. Good thing that she booked the first-class cabin.

T City International Airport

Carmen is following the crowd, heading to the exit. She stops in her tracks upon recognizing the two gorgeous men waiting at her outside the airport.

At that moment, she wanted to cry again. She only contacted her younger brother, but Rob was also picking her up. It moved her how thoughtful this big brother of hers was.

"Sister Carmen!" Ricky is waving both of his arms to make sure she sees them.

Ricky Dawson is the youngest among the three. He had just graduated from college and is under Rob\'s supervision to manage their coffee business, which was successful in importing.

"Thank you for picking me up! Let\'s go, guys!" Carmen concealed the sadness in her eyes, not for Ricky to see them. However, judging by how Rob was staring at her, he seemed to know already that she and John had broken up.

"Where do you want to go from here?" Rob asked Carmen when they all settled in the car.

"Any place would do..." Carmen forced herself to show a cheerful smile and Ricky notice nothing at all.

"Oh, are we not going straight home?" Ricky queried. He was seated in the front seat.

"I think Carmen would prefer to go hiking," said Rob, looking in the rearview mirror while he was driving.

Carmen smiled, delighted how her big brother knew her well. Having a few days of vacation after a heartbreak would really help. Besides, she could not face her parents for now and told them she and John had broken up.

Still, she didn\'t want John to leave a bad impression on her parents. It just happened she could not make him fall in love with her.

"Thank you, Rob," said Carmen afterward.

"It\'s unfair! I didn\'t pack anything! You guys should tell me ahead of time!"

Along the journey, Ricky complains nonstop. When they arrived at the Dawson lodge on Hillside Lake, Ricky found out that everything they needed to camp in the mountain was all ready.

"What do you think of your brother?" Raising one eyebrow, Rob proudly says to Ricky.

"You\'re the best, Rob!"

"Then go and cook dinner for us." Rob pushes his younger brother toward the kitchen. He purposely gave the task to him to have a private talk with Carmen sincerely.

Rob came back to the living room with two mugs of hot chocolate in his hands. However, he didn\'t find Carmen. He went to the backyard, to the swings that had a breathtaking view of the lake. This was Carmen\'s favorite spot.

"Here…" Rob handed the mug to Carmen. He then walked toward the other swing and sat on it.

"Rob, thank you for taking me here."

"No problem. I need to breathe too after dealing with some matter in our oil company."

Carmen turned her head and looked at Rob. "Is there a problem with the company?"

"It\'s just a small matter. I handled it quickly." Rob formed his lips into a small smile, not for Carmen to worry.

"That\'s good then." Carmen nodded her head. She stared at her mug before she took a sip. The hot liquid instantly warmed her chest. After a while, she broke the silence. "You must have known already."

"Yeah," Rob replied. "John told me himself."

Carmen was surprised to hear this. She did not expect John to reach out to her brother, which is very rare for someone to do after breaking someone\'s heart.

"What did you say to him?" She wondered if Rob yelled at John on the phone and beat him once their paths crossed in the future. To be honest, Rob is an overprotective brother. The reason she did not have a relationship with other men, and even if she had no unrequited love for John, it would still be impossible.

Carmen heard Rob hurl a long breath, then release it violently. Rob looks tired and troubled. Now, the friendship between Rob and John was tainted, and she felt a little guilty about it.

"I told him I might punch him soon."

Carmen was silent. Rob and John were in the same circle as famous tycoons of the Oceania Continent. There are several occasions that they would meet up. Not only that, but they also have common friends like Vincent and Mikael.

"You don\'t need to punch him. I understand I am only blocking the way toward his happiness."

Rob doesn\'t like what Carmen has said. Any brother would be enraged that someone dumped his sister, who is beautiful and intelligent and a person who has a heart of gold. That person must be very blind.

"You don\'t need to hurry to have a relationship again," said Rob after a long silence.

Carmen took a peek to smile at her big brother. She knew it was Rob\'s way of telling her that no man deserves her.

"I know, brother. But let me cry a little more." Her honest request. "I will be fine one day."

Because the truth is, she could not have another relationship if it were not for John. So it will be hard for her to forget him right away.

Days had passed…

The three siblings had enjoyed their two days camping on the nearby mountain. Ricky is the one who enjoyed the trip so much as he loves photography. He took many beautiful pictures that his older siblings praised for how skilled he was.

It was Ricky\'s hobby. However, he has to choose to be a businessman to help the family. In Carmen\'s case, Rob supported her decision to put up a restaurant rather than get involved in the company. Because if Rob would choose what he likes, he wanted to stay in the Navy.

"Vincent, it\'s me, Rob. This is my new personal number. When do you plan to end Samuel Miller? He keeps giving me a headache."

Rob actually had a big problem in the company, but Carmen\'s feelings are most important to him. Even though he has to solve the matter in the company as soon as possible, he chooses to cheer his sister by bringing her on a camping trip before anything else. Now that they are back from vacation.

"I am preparing my flight to visit T Country. Don\'t worry. I\'m coming to discuss it personally." Vincent assured Rob.

The issue regarding the Dawson Oil Company is not a small matter. So Vincent will deal with it personally. Also, his visit to T Country would strengthen his alliance. Keeping the Dawson family on his side would greatly impact his international territories.

"For now, we have to bear everything," Vincent added. "Our enemy is taking careful steps. We have to be patient, too."

"Okay. I\'ll wait until then. By the way, I have a perfect place for you to stay. The princess actually loves the place."

Rob already figured out that Vincent\'s visit was a secret. So, he needs to prepare the lodge for Vincent to stay where no one would know.

Davies Group, Dream City

Office of the Chairman

Vincent put down his phone after Rob ended his call. He was resting for a moment when it rang again.

"Hello, John?"

"Hey, are you going to attend the hearing?" asked John on the other line.

"No. Dad Fred and Dad Jacob would be there. I am scheduled to visit T Country next week. Are you…" Vincent paused. He was about to ask John to join him. He had forgotten that John and Carmen had broken up already. "Well, never mind."

On the other line, John senses that Vincent is about to ask him to join him in visiting the Dawson family, which is impossible since he broke up with Carmen.

"Alright. That\'s all, Vincent… I\'ll see your dad and Uncle Jacob. Have a safe trip then."

"Same to you… Thanks."

John hung up the call and resumed his work. That evening, he received a call from Samuel Miller.

"Any news?" asked the man on the other line.

"I have. Uncle Jacob and Frederick Shen will attend the trial."

"How about Vincent? Is he not going to attend the court hearing?"

"No. He is flying to T Country."

Samuel grinned. "Good."

John heaves a long sigh after Samuel ends the call. He rubbed his temple, then leaned back on his chair.

"A little more, and everything will end soon." He muttered to himself.
