My Ex Next Door-67 Chapter 67: The truth Part 2.

Ken laughed and his voice made her smile.

Novie giggled and wiped her tears but it just keeps on flowing, she's like a woman who just escaped the mental.

"I am calling to apologize, Ken, I didn't let you explain. I am so... so... sorry" she spoke in between her sobs.

The other line went silent which made her heart pounded like crazy.

"I want to see you Novie. I will go there" Ken said eventually.

Novie shook her head as if he's in front of her, "No, Ken I will go there. I want to see you too"

"Ok, I will pick up you up at the airport. Oh God! Novie, I really thought you forgot about me" Ken exclaimed and laughed.

His canorous laughed made her lips smile, she can no longer wait to see him.

"Are you crazy? I've been thinking about you. I will leave now and call you once I arrive... Ken… I love you" she shut her eyes and wait for him to answer, she knows she should not since it was not a question but her mind waited.

"I love you too" with those words, Novie started the car and drove to the airport, she no longer cares if her parents will bomb her phone with calls, all she wanted was to see Ken.

–

In Ken's office.

Ken smiled and put the phone down on the table, he got up and walked back and forth while his hand covered his mouth, he couldn't believe that Novie called him, it was the last thing he had in his mind when he woke up this morning.

His chest rose up and down, his hands trembled in excitement.

Inside the office, Danny was also working, Ken shared his office with him and he had a table next to the door.

"What happened to you?" Danny asked.

Ken suddenly realized that Danny was inside and he acted like a teenage boy who got a call from his crush, but he no longer cares, he walks to his direction and put both hands on his desk.

"Novie called me, she wants to get back with me" Ken spoke in a cheered tone while Danny remained with his flat face.

"Well, I guess Alexa' plan worked" Danny spoke and picked up the folder from his desk, he flipped the pages and swirled his chair around.

Ken was puzzled, he crossed his arms and stared at Danny.

"What plan?"

Danny looked at him and put the folder down.

"First, I need you to sign these documents so we can release the new medicine and also there will be an opening in…" Danny was interrupted when Ken took the folder and throw to the floor.

"What plan," he asked once again in an impatience tone.

Danny sighed and leaned to his chair.

"Alexa asked her brother Danny to photoshop your picture with them and add Donna, then she ordered Anders to send it to Novie. If I remember it correctly, he sent it last night so that must be the reason why she called you" Danny explained while rubbing his chin.

Ken gulped and tried to hide his smile, he picked up the folder he threw and signed it one by one.

"Brother, can you look after my company for some time? I will be busy" he pleaded on him, Danny shrugs a shoulder while handing him the next paper he needed to sign.

"Can you raise my salary?" Danny asked, Ken, widened his eyes and shook his head.

"No, you and Daniella already asked for a raise four times, I mean you're both rich, you don't need a salary" he exclaimed, the two decided to raise their salary without informing him and when he saw their paycheck, he was shocked by the amount.

Danny clicked his tongue and got up, he opened the door and looked at him.

"Fine, go and get your girl. I will handle everything here" Ken smiled and patted his shoulder before he left the office, he turned back to Danny.

"Please tell Alexa that I will give everything she wants, Even a boyfriend" and without waiting for Danny's reply, Ken left the office with emotion rushing throughout his body.

After Novie bought the ticket, she went straight to the departure area and wait for her flight. The busy airport didn't bother her, she's still in her uniform with her bag and books from the school.

She swallowed repeatedly while her hands trembled with emotion. She could not believe it took her two months to realize it, how stupid she was to doubt Ken even though she had previously accepted his past.

But right now. She had decided, no matter what Ken past was she will accept it wholeheartedly.

She was not with him when he made those crimes; she loves Ken by what she sees now, his thoughtful feeling and his soft heart, and for her, it's all that matter, she just wished she realized it sooner.

When her flight was announced she got up, she was about to pass the departure gate when her phone rang. She smiled widely when she saw that it was Ken's number.

"Ken" She called his name.

"Novie. I am going to the airport now. I will meet you there" Novie wrinkled her brows and looked at her watch. The flight will take two hours and Ken's office distance to the airport only takes twenty minutes if he drives his car.

"Ken you don't need to leave now" she insisted. She doesn't want him to feel bored at the airport while waiting for her.

Ken suddenly laughed. "don't worry about me. I'll see you later" Novie chuckled and bid her goodbye.

When her feet steps on the airplane stairs, her heart pounded, she gulped and handed her boarding pass to the flight attendant

--

Meanwhile, after Ken ended the call to Novie he got into his car and rushed out. To his excitement, he forgot to put the seatbelt on but

he doesn't mind it. There's huge traffic on the road so he doesn't need to drive fast.

He pushed the radio power button and listened to the radio.

'a heavy rain is currently storming the capital making the traffic worse and people are stranded...'

Ken turned it off as he doesn't want it to ruin his mood, he was whistling as he drives at a slow pace.

Ken sighed when he realized that he's been in the traffic for almost an hour. He signaled the car behind him that he's about to turn right; the car drove back some meters giving him space.

He turned the steering wheel to the right and blows a sigh when he finally entered the small street.

He opened the GPS and asked for a good route, seconds later the GPS talked and he followed the instruction.

After he saw the empty road, Ken speeds up. At first, he wondered why there were no other cars but later realized the reason.

He didn't notice the construction sign before, and before he could stop, his car smashed all the equipment the workers are using to create the bridge and drive towards the cliff.

Ken widened his eyes in terror. It was too late, his car is going down the cliff.

(!)

His body felt the heavy pressure when his car reached the ground. His sight got blurred, he tried to move his body, but it's been rumpled, his whole body numb while his vision slowly faded

Before he lost his consciousness, all he could think was Novie.
