Chapter 289 Morgan’s Clothes
In the VIP lounge at the airport, Cameron finished his work and glanced to the side, only to realize something was wrong. “Where’s Theodore?” he asked.
Mark and Morgan both looked up.
There was no one else nearby. It was easy to see that Theodore, who had been sitting next to them before, was gone.
Cameron furrowed his brows as he quickly stood up. “Go find airport announcements and security!”NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“Mr Dawson…” Mark stopped him after checking the time. “But the plane is about to take off now, we can’t delay the flight route or time…”
Cameron stood at the door anxiously scanning around but couldn’t find any trace of the child anywhere. He thought for a while and said, “Then let Morgan board first.”
“Little Miss?”
“Uncle Cameron,” Morgan also worriedly looked at Cameron with her innocent eyes. “I want to go find Theo with you.”
“No,” Cameron lowered his voice slightly. “If I have to look for your brother then I won’t be able to take care of you too. You should go back first and Uncle Cameron will come back soon with Theo, okay?”
Morgan pouted but didn’t want Cameron in trouble.
Mark took her hand towards the boarding gate direction.
Suddenly, Morgan’s phone watch vibrated. Most of the time it was Theodore who contacted her.
So she turned her small eyes towards Mark and tugged on his clothes.
“Uncle Mark, I want to go use the restroom.”
Mark didn’t hesitate much. He brought her over there and let her enter the lady’s room alone before reminding her with a few words.
A short while later, the girl came out again, looking more relaxed than before and even showing some happiness on her face.
“Let’s go, Uncle Mark.”
Mark couldn’t help being infected by this little girl’s smile as they walked together, “Don’t worry, Little Miss, Uncle Cameron and your mom will finish their work soon then come back for you.”
“Okay,” Morgan answered obediently but inside she thought differently.
“Mommy won’t come back! Mommy and Daddy will bring me back later!”Morgan thought to herself.
Now that she knew her brother had already returned to Dad’s side and he would tell her all about their parents’ situation. So it wouldn’t take long until they came back for her again. That was what the little girl thought about.
Cameron searched the entire airport but couldn’t find Theodore anywhere. In the end, he had to use his connections to check the internal surveillance and saw that Sion had taken him away.
“Sion…”
He practically spat out the name, his eyes unusually cold.
After a moment, he called Aurora and explained everything. “It looks like Theodore went with him voluntarily.”
That was why he didn’t rush straight to Sion’s company. If Sion had forcibly taken Theodore away, Cameron would have gone there directly to get him back.
“How could this happen? How did Sion just happen to be at the airport?” Aurora was very worried. She hadn’t expected things to turn out like this. Aurora sighed heavily, thinking that all she did was make it worse. Her intention to send the children away was to avoid Sion.
“I’ve checked it out,” Cameron said. “His original flight was supposed to be for business travel but he cancelled it when he saw Theodore.”
Fortunately, Sion didn’t see Theodore and Morgan at the same time, and she sent Morgan away.
“For now, let’s leave it at that. I’ll think of another way.” She said finally.
“Okay,” Cameron replied in a terrible mood.
Sion brought Theodore home and all along the way, this child acted like a crazy person jumping up and down in the car. He started off sitting in the backseat but then squeezed into the front passenger seat from between them. Sometimes, he climbed on windows or touched windshields as if they were toys.
“Morgan, you can’t do this.”
Sion frowned deeply as he slowed down his speed while driving.
“Dangerous, go sit properly at your place behind.”
“But I want it like this.” Replied Theodore, who only glanced at him before turning up the music from the car speakers, which made him jump around even more energetically than before.
Sion felt veins popping on his forehead. How came after disappearing for several days Morgan came back acting so different?
Could something have happened?
Thinking about such a possibility made Sion feel guilty again. If only he paid more attention towards Morgan, she wouldn’t run away by herself or gotten lost for so many days.
Sion sighed with a pang of heartache.
The drivers on the road watched as Rolls-Royce slowed down from normal speed and eventually became almost as slow as a turtle. But Sion took the side road, which did not affect traffic conditions. It was just that this journey home, which was originally only half an hour’s drive, ended up taking more than an hour.
Finally, they arrived and he breathed a sigh of relief.
“Morgan, let’s get out of the car.”
Sion circled to open the passenger door and carried Theodore out from inside up to their apartment.
Theodore was surprised by Sion’s attitude towards him at this point. Even though he had acted like that, he wasn’t angry.
Sion had called Donna ahead of time to come over and wash Theodore when they got home. Of course, Theodore wouldn’t agree. His sister was a girl so it was normal for Donna to help her bathe. But he was a boy. He didn’t even have mommy bathe him at home. Moreover, if way, everyone would know that he was a boy.
“I don’t want to!” Theodore refused decisively.
Sion put down his luggage and saw this awkward scene.
“Then who do you want to help you wash?” Sion had a good temper but his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
It wasn’t anger. He just found himself feeling helpless when facing his daughter like this.
“I’ll wash myself!” Theodore crossed his arms with some blush on his little face, showing firmness in both position and attitude.
Sion finally compromised, “Okay.” He reached out to rub Theodore’s hair gently. “Then you can wash yourself.”
It was a good thing that “she” could be independent at such young age in Sion’s eyes.
Donna prepared clothes for him on top of the stool inside while adjusting the water temperature in the bathtub before placing the shower gel beside it. After that, she said, “Little Miss, don’t come out when there are bubbles on your body because you might slip, understand?”
“I know!” Theodore felt uneasy while pushing Donna lightly away saying, “You go first.”
He looked at clothes stacked neatly on a chair with an embarrassed look on his face since those were all girls’ clothes.
Although he had worn Morgan’s clothing before, it was only out of necessity and he quickly took them off. Now, as he posed as Morgan to stay close to Sion, he would have to wear these clothes every day. At the thought of this, Theodore’s face scrunched up, feeling drained and defeated.
