Scarlett exited the train station and quickly hailed a taxi, instructing the driver to take her to the private airport.
As Scarlett sat in the back of the taxi, her thoughts of Xander preoccupied her mind. She couldn't help but wonder if Xander was frantically looking for her right now!?
"X-Xander..." Scarlett softly whispered his name, feeling the tears welling in her eyes. But she quickly shook her head, determined to push thoughts of him aside. She couldn't afford to let her mind dwell on Xander, for the more she did, the more her heart ached.
Instead, Scarlett focused her attention on the mission ahead. She knew that the only way to distract herself from thoughts of Xander was to stay busy, to throw herself into her new task. Her goal was clear: to find the Withers, her mother's family, and uncover the truth about her mother's mysterious past.
