A Divorce After My Rebirth

With how serious Caleb sounded, Natalie didn't doubt him and replied without hesitation, "Wait for me." Caleb replied gently, "Okay." After hanging up, Natalie neatly packed away the blueprints on her desk and placed them in a drawer.

Then she grabbed her car keys and headed out.

Glancing at her watch, she realized it was almost time to finish work.

If she went to pick up Caleb now, she definitely wouldn't make it home in time for dinner.

After all, it took forty minutes to drive to the airport.

She called Heather.

"You don't have to wait for me for dinner tonight." "Is work too busy? You haven't fully recovered yet, so don't strain your eyes too much," Heather said concernedly.

Upon hearing that Natalie wouldn't be coming home for dinner, Heather naturally assumed Natalie was working overtime.

"It's not overtime.

A friend has arrived in Verde City, and we're planning to have dinner together," Natalie explained.

"Alright, come back early, and don't drink," Heather instructed from the other end of the line.

Heather was now worried about Natalie every single time she was away from home.

It was probably because of everything that had happened before, and Heather was now traumatized.

"I got it," Natalie replied before hanging up and focusing on driving.

The drive was smooth, and forty minutes later, Natalie arrived at the airport to pick up Caleb.

He was wearing a gray coat with a navy blue scarf, looking exceptionally gentle.

As soon as Caleb spotted Natalie, he began walking toward her with his luggage in tow.

Natalie moved to take his suitcase, but Caleb skillfully evaded her and said, "How can I let a lady do the heavy lifting?" He believed in treating women with kindness and respect, so how could he allow Natalie to do such a thing? Natalie chuckled.

"I didn't expect you to be quite the gentleman." "Shall we?" Caleb prompted.
