Secret Marriage, High-Profile Pampering!-Chapter 149: Rushing Back to His Side

His tone didn’t quite sound like an order, but Summer Sutton couldn’t quite grasp the exact mood behind those words.

It was hard to take leave from the crew, mainly because all of Ariella Sawyer’s matters were now handled by Summer Sutton. If she left, Ariella would have no one to help her.

Summer Sutton felt a bit troubled.

While working the next day, she was still absent-mindedly thinking about this issue.

While Ariella was filming, Summer Sutton remained quietly lost in thought.

Having been used to living alone, in her world, there wasn’t really such a thing as holidays.

But now, she had Adrian Walyon as her family.

Summer Sutton suddenly recalled what Adrian Walyon said that day: Do you understand what marriage is?

She thought repeatedly about this matter all morning, and she had made up her mind by lunch.

She walked toward Ariella, just about to ask for leave, when Ariella opened up first, "Summer, it’s almost New Year. Shouldn’t you be going back? Don’t you still have a husband at home? It’s not good to spend New Year’s, a time for unity, all by yourself outside."

Summer Sutton looked at her in astonishment, not expecting her to be so considerate.

"You should go back these few days and spend good quality time with your family. If I get too busy, I’ll call my mom to help, and we can celebrate together," Ariella added.

She truly was thoughtful and warm.

Summer Sutton was so touched she hugged her, "Little Ariella, you’re wonderful!"

"Enough, hurry up and buy your ticket, be careful that the tickets for the day aren’t sold out," Ariella reminded her.

"Got it, got it, I’m on it!" Summer Sutton happily returned to the hotel, quickly packed her suitcase, and when she went to book a ticket online, she was surprised to find that there really were no tickets for that day.

Staring at her phone showing no tickets, Summer Sutton was momentarily stunned.

What should she do?

If she didn’t return, leaving Adrian Walyon to spend New Year’s alone, with the sounds of fireworks and festivities everywhere outside, yet only him at home, Adrian Walyon would certainly feel disheartened.

Diana Wood also loved to criticize her, and if she missed such an important holiday at home, she might harp on this for months.

But with no tickets, what could she do?

Summer Sutton had no choice; she couldn’t book a flight ticket, so she had to settle for a train ticket instead.

From her current city to Northtown, a plane takes almost four hours, while the train takes about eleven hours.

The journey was long, and there were no seats left when she bought the train ticket; all she could get was a standing ticket.

Summer Sutton had initially thought maybe she could switch to a seating ticket midway if someone got off.

Unexpectedly, with the holiday travel rush, all the seats were booked.

The long journey back to Northtown, for over ten hours, Summer Sutton stood the entire way.

...

Sutton Gardens.

Adrian Walyon stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of the villa, quietly staring at his phone.

He was waiting for her call, waiting to hear her say she’s back!

But now, it was almost midnight, and the phone hadn’t rung even once.

The outside was lively tonight, the fireworks in the night sky almost never ceased.

The sound of crackling filled the atmosphere with a festive air.

In Adrian Walyon’s concept, there wasn’t really such a thing as holidays either, but living as a couple was somewhat different than living alone.

When there are two, the house really feels like home, and many days usually deemed unimportant would inadvertently become worth caring about.

Adrian Walyon stood by the window for a long time; the New Year’s Eve was almost over, and he originally thought Summer Sutton wouldn’t return, but just then, suddenly, the phone rang...
