Chapter 58 She could finally leave Alderburg.

Serena stared at the screen, holding her breath in anticipation.

"Serena-" A cold voice suddenly cut through the air.

She looked up and saw Aaron sprinting towards her. Her heart skipped a beat, and her hands trembled slightly. "You can't leave!" His voice echoed through the empty airport, amplified to a haunting degree, enveloping Serena in a chilling grip. Her hands shook even more.

She quickly lifted her gaze, her eyes meeting Aaron's intense stare as he closed the distance. Her eyes reddened, void of warmth. "And what if I must?" "As soon as you buy that ticket, the police will be on their way. Serena, making this a scene won't do you any good." Serena let out a bitter laugh, filled with melancholy. "So what? As long as I can leave before they arrive, I have no regrets!" Aaron's eyes narrowed sharply. "What does Northspire have that makes you so desperate to go back?!" Despair flickered in Serena's eyes.

Aaron would never understand.

Besides, Penelope had no appreciation for their true value.

She only saw them as items to be sold.

If Serena didn't hurry back, the remaining pieces would surely be sold off by Penelope.

Without hesitation, she lowered her head and clicked the purchase button.

At that moment, the bustling airport seemed to fall silent.

The clatter of the printer spitting out her ticket was deafening.

Aaron's gaze sharpened, and with a swift movement, he vaulted over the counter, grabbing Serena with an iron grip.

"Let go of me!" Serena snapped, anger flaring.

"You're coming back with me!" Aaron began pulling Serena towards the exit.

"I won't..." Serena struggled, trying desperately to break free from Aaron's grasp.

But his hold was too strong.

In a last-ditch effort, she bit down hard on Aaron's arm.

Aaron, as if sensing her move, quickly retracted his arm, spun around, and lifted her up.

Serena fought against him.

But Aaron's grip was unyielding, pinning her limbs.

She felt as though she were sinking into quicksand, unable to move.

"Aaron!" As the exit loomed closer, Serena glared at Aaron's chiseled jawline, her voice seething with anger. "Aaron, don't makehate you!" Aaron paused for a moment, then tightened his hold on her. "Then hate me." Serena let out a weak laugh.

She was being foolish.

Why would Aaron care whether she hated him or not? She stopped struggling, closing her eyes, her long lashes quivering like the wings of a broken butterfly.

Aaron's heart clenched, making it hard to breathe.

"Mr. Vance!" Victor's voice jolted him back to reality.

He bent down and shoved Serena into the backseat of the car.

But as soon as Serena landed in the car, she suddenly opened her eyes, slipping through the gap between the seats and Aaron.

Aaron's eyes widened, reaching out to grab her, but Serena was toom berena was toom quick, thearting like a nimble rabbit. By the tAaron straightened up, she was already at the airport entrance. Her hand clenched the ticket tightly.

Aaron's gaze darkened.

Finally free, Serena wasted no time. She clutched her ticket andrushed thed through the gate to the waiting area. As she cleared security, her heart, which had been lodged in her throat, finally settled.
