Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 720: Honeymoon Tri 

Helen's POV:

After his mother left, George's face grew dim as he sat in the living room without saying a word.I held his hand and comforted him.

"It's okay. My mother can understand where she's coming from." He reached out to stroke my hair gently.

"I'm sorry,"he said, his voice laced with guilt.

I shook my head and uttered, "It doesn't matter."

After all, Ihad already seen this coming, but hurdles hit me without warning.It had been overwhelming.

Although my relationship with my husband's mother seemed to be doing better, I could tell she still despised my roots.

I realized we couldn't solve these conflicts soon, so I didn't expect her to accept me anymore.

As long as we could maintain this peace like we currently did, that was enough.

The next day, we went to the airport early in the morning.

While in the waiting area, George brought out his laptop to deal with emails sent to him.

Despite having business matters arranged for the next few days in advance, he still had a lot of urgent files to manage in person.

"Take some rest for now.I'll remind you when we have to board the plane."

My work kept bothering my mind.I even remained to keep taps on the project I handled for Leeson Holdings post-completion.

Cece's advertising company won the bid and became a partner for it.

She had always been excellent at work.I was happy for her when I saw the news.

George swigged his coffee and tossed it back immediately in disgust.

"I'll go out for a bit." I put my phone away and got up.

George shifted his eyes from the screen to look at me.

"Do you need me to go with you?"

"No need.I'll be back soon."

I found a cafe nearby and ordered George's favorite.

When I came back, I chanced upon the broadcast of our flight boarding.I quickened my pace to the waiting room.

George moved his laptop aside and walked up to me, snatching the coffee in my hand.
