Chapter 1374

Northern City.

The moment the plane landed, Maria's heart started to pound wildly.

She thought that it would take at least three more years for her to see Liam again. She didn't expectto see him again so soon.

She had to thank Ernest for his help.

Since they had chatted on the rooftop that day, Ernest had been helping her. This time,undoubtedly, Ernest had called Liam here on purpose.

When she found out about it the night before, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep well. Shetried to get some shut-eye on the plane, but she couldn't fall asleep.

Ernest reminded her several times, "Your eyebags are very dark. If you appear in front of a man likethis, are you sure he will have a good impression on you when he sees your eyebags?"

Although Maria was secretly anxious, she still retorted, "Even if I was as beautiful as an angel now,believe it or not, Liam will still be the same when he sees me. He won't have any reaction towardsme, and might not even..."

He might not even remember her name.

Why should she be so confident to assume that he would remember her?

In fact, Maria was clear that her beauty would not affect anything. This was because the other partymight not even look at her at all.

"Even what?" Ernest raised his eyebrows, and there was a touch of sharpness in his eyes.

"Nothing," Maria shook her head and did not continue.

She closed her eyes to rest, but in the end, she did not fall asleep.

Soon, they finally arrived home.

The plane was taxiing on the runway to a stop.

Maria stretched and looked at herself in the mirror. She found that she was in a poor physical state,with dark circles under her eyes and messy hair.

Ernest looked at her and persuaded, "Even if it's not for him, you should at least show your parentsyour best, right? Do you want them to feel upset when they see your tired look?"

"Haha," Maria smiled and took a comb to tame her wild hair. Soon, it looked much neater.

Ernest had been looking at her all the while. Seeing that she was so perfunctory, he sighed, "Maria,you're not like my uncle's daughter at all. Your father is much more proper and tidier than you."

"My dad?" Maria smiled at Ernest. She kept the comb away and didn't even think of cleaning herface, commenting, "He is exquisite and devoted. He only gives his love to my mom. There are notmany men like him."

Ernest also nodded. He had no objection to Maria's statement.

The plane stopped, and the cabin door had been opened.

Maria took a deep breath and got up.

Ernest took her bag and handed it to her.

While grabbing the bag, Maria took another deep breath.

When they got off the plane together, it was actually raining.

"Is it raining?" Maria was very surprised.

"Didn't you watch the news?" Ernest glanced at her, "Coming home is a big event, so why didn't youcheck the forecast?" "Yeah I did, but it slipped my mind," Maria was very absent-minded these days.

Without saying anything, she heaved a helpless sigh.

When they arrived at the exit, Maria saw a lot of people coming to pick the passengers up.

She and Ernest took their luggage. Ernest grabbed a cart and loaded up all the larger pieces ofluggage. Meanwhile, she just had her backpack with her and followed beside him.

Maria was not sure whether Liam was in the crowd. After all, he was still an artist. Even if his famewas decreasing, he was still a public figure. She didn't know whether he would appear or not.

All the people in the crowd were strangers. He was not there.

In the sea of people, no matter how many people there were, Maria had the ability to spot him at aglance.

Perhaps it was just intuition.

There was no one at the door.

Her gaze quickly swept across the crowd. When she didn't see Liam, a sense of disappointmentarose in her heart.

However, she didn't say anything.

Ernest took a look at her. Perhaps sensing Maria's mood, he explained, "Liam is in the car outside."

Maria was stunned and pursed her lips. She looked at Ernest and asked, "How did you know?"

Ernest shook his phone at her and replied, "He sent me a message."

Maria was dumbfounded and sighed.

She didn't have Liam's number, nor did she have Liam's contact.

All the information she had about Liam came from the internet, but she was deeply fascinated byhim.

The two heaved their luggage to the airport lobby.

Sure enough, a white Land Rover was stopped at Gate B3. Maria's intuition told her that this washis car.

Sure enough, the door opened and a tall man got out of the car. He went around the front of the car,walked to the passenger side door, and opened it.

The trunk automatically opened. Liam was wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt, some blacktrousers and a pair of black sneakers that showed off his ankles.

He had very thin ankles.

Liam wore sunglasses, and his hair was short. He had gotten a buzz cut and looked very energetic.

He turned to look at Ernest and smiled slightly, showing his white teeth.

With a slight smile, Ernest pushed his luggage over and greeted him, "Liam."

"Welcome back," Liam didn't take off his glasses and hugged Ernest.

"Thank you," Ernest also smiled and gave Liam a hug.

Maria still stood behind Ernest. When she saw that Liam was not moving forward, she stopped andlooked at him from a distance.

"Maria," Ernest turned around and saw Maria standing some distance away in a daze. So, hequickly shouted at her.

Maria immediately came to her senses and walked over.

Liam glanced at Maria. When he saw her, his gaze became sharper behind his sunglasses.

There was a hint of ferocity on his handsome face. It made him look colder and more stern.

Maria took a deep breath and found Liam staring at her intensely from behind his tinted sunglasses.

She raised the corner of her mouth slightly and smiled at him politely.

When she walked to them, Maria greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Robinson."

Liam calmed down a little. He looked away and said faintly, "Hello."

He did not address her, probably because he still did not remember her name.

Maria's long eyelashes trembled, and she looked down to hide the glum look in her eyes.

"My name is Maria Lowe. I'm Ernest's cousin," She introduced herself again.

The expression on Liam's face was still calm, as if nothing had attracted his attention. He just gavea light nod without saying anything.

Maria was a little depressed at the sight of this, but she still spoke with a smile.

"Liam, this is my cousin," Ernest added.

"Get in the car, Ernest," Liam was still very polite to him. He smiled and helped him with hisluggage.novelbin

It was obvious that he wasn't interested in what Maria had to say.

He had no interest in who she was.

Ernest glanced at her and was a little worried.

However, Maria chuckled, "Ernest, you'd better put away the luggage. The airport is not safe.Although Mr. Robinson's fame has dropped to the bottom, he is still young. If a fangirl finds out thathe's Mr. Robinson and harassed him, won't you and I be guilty?"
