My Husband's Secret Affairs With My Step Sister novel Chapter 14

"Please prepare for landing" The pilot's voice rang through the speaker.

Everyone puts on their seat belts including Amelia.

The plane made a whooshing sound as it flew down for landing, its tires rolling on the graveled floor of the airport, Amelia felt her heart skip at the feel of the plane landing, its tires bouncing softly.

As she got closer to her destination, the plane gets lower and she got a good view of where she was going to be living from above.

The pilot lands safely and everyone prepares to leave the plane.

Finally, it came to a stop, but her heart didn't stop pounding against her ribcage, she removed her seatbelt and stood up, bringing out her luggage, she followed the other travelers to step down from the plane.

The hot air of PENNSYLVANIA welcomed her the moment she stepped down from the plane.

It's weather warming her skin, she licked her dry lips as she dragged her luggage along the graveled floor.

She saw families at the airport welcoming their members, squeals of joy and happiness, husbands coming home to their wives, they hugged and kissed each other, it felt as though they were taunting her of her misfortune.

Her heart ached as she walked past them, tears at the corner of her eyes.

She walked up to a taxi and entered, not aware of where she would start from, but all she felt like doing was having a creamy cup of coffee, to numb her aching heart.

——

Amelia was sitting on a coffee boot, a mug of coffee in hand with cake.

She sat there sipping her coffee lost in thoughts of how she was going to find her way around in an unknown city.

"I still can't believe Ethan divorced me.." She murmured, her voice so low, that it mingled with the calm air, her heart was shattered, she felt used, she felt as though she had never been in control of her life.

Always asked to do stuff others had decided, but in PENNSYLVANIA, she gets to do what she wants, make her own decisions, and make new memories.

All these she hoped would come through, she hoped life would not add thorns to her roses again.

Amelia was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice when the waiter guy walked up to her, until the scrapping of the chair on the floor got her attention.

She looked up to see him smiling softly at her, and she could not help but feel creeped out.

" I know you must be feeling really weird out right now, because a dude just walked up to you smiling like a creep, yah" he said, Amelia looked at him amused.

"Yeah yeah, I know, I'm crazy, but hey I can't help but want to sit with such a beautiful lady like you" He said relaxing deep in his chair.

"Aren't you meant to be working?" Amelia asked with a smile.

"You've got a beautiful smile," He said instead.

"That's not what I asked, " Amelia said with her eyebrows raised, still amused.

" Oh C'mon" He whined. "Well if you are that concerned I'm on break and I couldn't help but get captivated by your promising beauty" he said with a charming smile.

"Do you mind telling me your name then?"She asked, getting comfortable with him.

" Well I'm Lucas Net, your one and only knight in shining armor, so what's yours Milady?"he said, bowing his head.

"Well I'm Amelia at your service My lord"She said tilting her head to the side mimicking him.

"So... What brings you to PENNSYLVANIA?." he asked, her face became gloomy.

"I see you've brought a lot with you, do you need help?" Lucas asked once again.

"Oh yeah, I need help in getting an apartment and also getting enrolled in one of the colleges, maybe see my way around here," She replied.

" Well you've got the right man for the job," He said, flashing her a charming smile.

Lucas was a very attractive handsome man, his pearly white teeth flashed as he smiled, revealing his cute dimples.

She couldn't help but be attracted to him as she smiled back at his contagious smile.

"Let me help you with these then, " he said taking her luggage, Amelia carried her handbag and stood up.

"What about work?" She asked.

"Did I forget to mention that I'm the boss here"He said flashing her a million dollar smile

Amelia blushed slightly as she walked behind him.

He carried her luggage to a black jeep and placed it in the trunk. He opened the door for her to enter, before starting the car and zooming off.

Amelia walked into the college chairman's office, with a file in hand, Lucas had really helped her a lot, she was really thankful for all his help and kindness, she didn't think she would survive.

" Good morning sir" She greeted.

"Good morning, sit down,"He said, gesturing to the seat in front of his table.

She sat down and gazed around his office, his office was well furnished, a book shelf was at the left corner of the room, filled with books and files, on the top were three different vases filled with fake flowers.

Beside it was a small fridge, the walls were filled with achievements and photos.
