The automobile swiftly pulled to a halt at the airport; Alla endeavored to alight, only for Casiano to hastily grasp her hand.
With a face as pale as death, he held her hand firmly, his voice a somber whisper, "Alla, allow me to escort you inside."
Alla's lips parted to speak, but Casiano preemptively interrupted her impending words, "After I see you off, I'll depart. Please, do not refuse."
Guiding her out of the vehicle, he instructed his bodyguard to gather her belongings, then personally escorted her into the airport.
Upon sighting Walden Abrams seated in the waiting area, Alla gently raised her head towards the man at her side, "This is far enough."
After her words, she added, "Thank you for your care during this time."
She attempted to withdraw her hand, but Casiano held firm, refusing to release her.
After several futile attempts to free herself, Alla looked up at him, "Are you going back on your word again?"
