Chereads / My cold ex-wife / Chapter 3 - Departure

Chapter 3 - Departure

The drive to the heliport was very smooth. Matteo has been contemplating whether to ask his sister or not about what was really going on.

He sensed that his sister was hiding something from him. After a long thought, he decided to ask her directly in order to clear his doubts.

Turning his head in her direction, he saw that she was peacefully sleeping. As her older brother, Matteo was used to taking care of his little sister.

In addition, pampering her was one of his best hobbies. Seeing how serene Izara was, he decided to let her have a good rest.

The rising sun of the early hours was smooth and brightly shone on her face. This made her looks appear more exquisite. Matt suddenly felt very emotional because she looked exactly like their late mother.

Everything looked alike. She was just like the younger version of their beloved mother. Sighing, he thought that everything just seemed too pitiful.

Izara on the other hand was not sleeping at all. She just wanted to relieve tension and also needed to mentally prepare herself for her awaiting new life and for the arrival of the baby in her tummy.

That innocent being that will soon brighten her days. Soon after, she dozed off without even realizing it herself.

After arriving at the heliport, Matteo thought it was a good time to wake up his sister so that they could leave early. The sooner they leave, the sooner they will arrive.

After leading Izara inside the helicopter, Matteo got in too but he sat on the pilot's seat. "Bro, why are you sitting in the pilot's seat? Wait don't tell me you're the one who's going to ride it?!" She could not hide the bewilderment on her face.

Seeing her face in great confusion and shock, Matteo was somewhat amused by her look. Hence, he chuckled "Silly you! Isn't it obvious?". Then he turned to her side and stretched his hand to close her mouth which was open widely in bafflement. Thereafter, he started the engine and they finally left the city.

. . .

A few hours later,

Country Z, city K,

At the heliport waited for them a white Bentley. Exiting the helicopter, the first thing Izara did was to take a good breath. She was now in a different country and she felt much better and at ease. For a good beginning, she wanted to move on. Thus, smelling and feeling a new environment was a good first step.

Next, she was going to become stronger and more successful. While Izara was busy with her thoughts, Matteo called the Butler at his home in order to make preparations for their arrival.

Even being startled by the commission from his Master, the Butler still executed the order. His Master seldom went back home and usually preferred to stay at hotels.

Besides, this time around he was even bringing with him a woman. Izara and Matteo were already on their way home without the knowledge of the great commotion they created by their arrival.

The car stopped in front of a small villa. While going out of the car, Izara was wondering why did her brother have a small villa with a very vast compound.

She watched as a young man in his early thirties went forward to carry their luggage from the trunk and went into the house. Then she carefully followed behind her brother as he went in.

The interior of the house looked just like its owner, simple yet elegant. Matteo always had a carefree and calm personality. At a glance, one could tell that the decoration of the house was made by a professional. From the types of furniture in the house to the garden outside, everything was very pleasant to the eye.

Izara couldn't hold her curiosity anymore and asked "Uhm brother, if I may ask, why did you buy a large piece of land only to construct a small villa? This land can accommodate another 2 villas like this one",

Matteo felt like teasing her a little after listening to her childish remark. Yet, he still decided to reply seriously "I'm still single and I don't have any plan of forming a family at the moment that is why I have an average house. Whatever happens in the future, I can still renovate it",

When those words got to the butler's ears, he felt like crying hard. His boss was indeed a rich man. Talking about renovating an entire house as if commenting on a football match and not a small one at that.

If he was to completely demolish this one and build a larger one within some months then what happened to the value of money? The butler went back to finish his tasks while silently lamenting his achievements.

Izara was tired from the flight and needed to wash up, so she went to the room that was assigned to her. After entering the room she was left dumbstruck by the sight.

It was exactly how she liked and wanted it to be. The walls were painted white with a faint layer of pink. It had a large yet cozy-looking bed with a large walk-in closet full of girls' stuff.

It looked like Matt thought of everything she will need and even provided them for her. He was still as sensible as before. Back then, when they were younger, he used to give her all his nicest things.

He doted on her a lot and still does. And what surprised her more was that he actually remembered all her likes and dislikes.

After washing up, Izara decided to skip lunch and go to sleep directly, then wake up later for dinner. Before sleeping, she decided to unpack her things first and write a plan for herself. Later on, she lay down on the bed peacefully and mind-free while having a sweet dream.
