Chapter 113 I have no say to him. (1/2)

The call went on for a short time before Ethan finally bid his farewell.

”I'm near my destination so, I have to hang up now.” With great reluctance, Ethan Lu uttered. On the line, Lexi didn't immediately respond as she tried to absorb Ethan's obvious lies.

”Uh… alright.” With that said piece, the call was cut short.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Ethan put down his phone as he patted his chest to calm his racing heart. After his unplanned consultation with his dear friend Chris Yu, Ethan had to treat the matter with great importance.

Hence, he recalled all the past scenarios with Lexi; her smiling face, her usual snob front, the fact that she was full of surprises, and how she made him feel content with just being with her -- Ethan could not help but scream inwardly.

If what Chris Yu said were all true then, Ethan indeed fell for Lexi! However, thinking about her connection with Morris Liu and the unbending obstacle of his Lu family -- Ethan could not help but feel his head throb in pain.

Just what did he get himself into? Falling in love wasn't what distress him, but the person he fell in love with! How could he heedlessly offer friendship and even shamelessly urged her to call him big brother if he's going to fall in love with her?

Furthermore, he fell for Lexi for god sake! Ethan was clear that pursuing the girl and hoping to get her sweet 'yes' was more impossible than a pig to fly.

”Aish!! I'm so dumb! So dumb! So dumb!!” Stomping his feet in annoyance, Ethan grumbled.

He had never felt this frustration in his entire life. That is why he needed some peace of mind. However, even if he wanted to just go awol. -- he was concerned that Lexi might think that he abandoned her without a word.

Surely, this action of his only added to his frustrations as it only miss her more!

”Young master… why are you doing this? Are you tired of working so you'd be willing to convert into a monk now?” As usual, the most affected person of Ethan's abrupt decision for soul searching was his loyal assistant; Lyrick Jiang. If he could weep right here and now, he would.

Lyrick Jiang was beyond mind-boggled when Ethan Lu exited the lounge where his secret meeting took place. He, of course, followed his young master but to his dismayed, Ethan dropped an enormous bomb saying; ”Clear my schedule for a whole month -- I have to go soul searching.
