Chapter 237 - Rushing Back Home
Outside the Fujo Clan's main gate, Nyissa was standing before Viktor to bid him farewell while Ayana was secretly peeking from behind.
Since they had already exchanged goodbyes with each other before, now they had no words to say to each other but instead gazed at each other's eyes.
"It seems like a little rabbit of yours is spying on us," Viktor chuckled as he looked behind Nyissa.
Nyissa sighed and said, "Ayana, come out. Why are you hiding?"
Ayana became startled, and like a thief who got caught red-handed, she slowly walked out with an awkward expression and didn't dare to look at her Master but inwardly berated Viktor for teasing her, especially yesterday night.
"You are her only disciple, so you know that you should take good care of your Master, right?"
Ayana immediately lifted her head and said vehemently, "Of course, you don't have to tell me, hmph. Otherwise, what kind of disciple would I be?"
Viktor slightly laughed, "Alright, alright. Then you better call me as well if your Master needs me. Otherwise, I will spank you as punishment."
"Master! He is bullying me!" Ayana indignantly cried out to her Master, making Nyissa shoot a chiding glare towards Viktor, "Viktor…"
Viktor defensively raised his hands, "I was just kidding! Okay…this might seem like a goodbye for now, but we will be seeing each other soon, okay?"
Nyissa's gaze softened as she nodded while Viktor caressed her face lovingly before kissing her forehead and slowly walking back while looking at her.
Ayana felt a bit disappointed seeing Viktor leaving since spending time with him seemed fun compared to her usual life. Viktor made her feel excited like never before, and it was a kind of feeling she was getting fond of, though she didn't know why.
Nyissa kept standing in the same spot, looking at his back as he slowly disappeared into the distance and feeling a strange emptiness in her chest after seeing him leave, though she was sure she would be seeing him soon again.
"You sly fellow, you really scored it this time," Brad heartily laughed as he patted Viktor's back, wondering how this guy manages to even get girls like Nyissa fall for him.
He felt that if he had the same skills as Viktor dozens of years ago, it wouldn't have taken him too much effort to make Dina fall for him.
"It can't be helped. It's something carved deep within my bones," Viktor said with a cool smile, though inwardly, he was already missing Nyissa and wanted to hold her for as long as possible.
"Well, talking about women, aren't you forgetting something?"
"What?" Viktor asked in confusion.
"That stepmom and daughter duo you had fun with?"
"Ah…right…but I did leave a note about taking a trip to this place. So they won't be looking for us," Viktor said in a tone of certainty and continued, "I wanna return home as fast as possible."
Umilia's face flashed in Viktor's mind, and all this time, he had been suppressing the urge to see her because of the matters he had to take care of here.
Brad raised one of his brows, "Which woman is it? I am sure you want to rush back because of a woman, right?"
Viktor rolled his eyes, "Did anyone ever tell you that you are shrewd when it comes to only these kinds of things?"
Brad smirked, "You underestimate my intellect. I don't even have a business degree like those brats who flaunt their MBAs from prestigious colleges. Yet, I managed my own business empire all these years. Surely, I am born with a higher IQ."
Viktor laughed as he patted Brad's back, "Alright, alright. You are the most brainy one on the whole planet. My apologies."
Brad pinched his lips in an aggrieved manner, "I am serious!"
The two laughed and talked as they looked back on their trip to this island and the fun they had. Brad indeed felt it was a good thing he took this trip, though he was a bit worried thinking how Taya would react if she came to know that Viktor got himself a new fiance, not that he could exactly blame him considering his daughter had shown Viktor the cold shoulder even when he came back.
He couldn't understand what was going on in Taya's head or the decisions she was making. But he was sure she was hiding some secret that she wasn't willing to tell and that this secret might be the cause for everything.
Brad and Viktor soon returned to the hotel and informed Sarah and Susan about their immediate departure, much to their disappointment as they still hadn't had enough of Lucien and was sad to let him go so soon when they had already planned for staying here a few more days.
Sarah was sad since the moment she returned, she would have to follow her married life with her husband.
Viktor somehow slipped out of the hotel after giving some excuses about the need for his urgent return. And with Brad's help, he was able to book an earlier flight back to Olknard city, where the Snow Mansion was.
Viktor was literally dragging Brad towards the airport since the urge to see Umilia was only increasing as moments passed, and he wanted to settle down his heart by seeing things for himself.
Brad had no idea why this playboy even seemed eager to leave two beauties here just to return home? Which woman was making him crazy like this? The only time he had seen him like this was whenever it involved Taya, and he wondered if some kind of development took place on the previous phone call Viktor had with Taya.
Even during the flight back home, Viktor didn't seem to pay any mind to the hot air hostess' walking to and fro but was instead staring out the window, thinking deeply about something.
Within six hours, the two finally reached the Olknard Airport at around 4 PM. And the first question Viktor asked Brad as soon as he touched down was, "Which place does Sa…I mean, Umilia take her yoga classes?"
