Chapter 215 Baby clothes! (1/2)
Meanwhile…
At the Yang Family Mansion, Lillian Yang was preparing a morning tea and breakfast for her family with a light mood. After she prepared everything, she finally had the time to check her emails and anything important on her mobile phone.
The very instant she opened her phone, Ethan Lu's message late last night immediately caught her eye. Although she often exchanged messages with her future son-in-law, Lillian Yang was still giddy to check what Ethan Lu's news was that he had for her.
As she tapped to check the message, Lillian Yang with eyes full of interest read the content of the message that made her eyes slowly widen. It says:
”Good Evening, Mom! I wanted to call but knowing it's late and Mom and Dad were probably asleep, I will leave this message instead.
Mom, Lexi will not be able to go home, she fell asleep. Don't worry, Mom. I got her *angel emoticon* I will drive her home tomorrow *angel emoticon*”
Lillian Yang read the content of the message over and over again. She knew that Lexi went out last night with her new friend Rika and a few colleagues from her recent movie. However, she didn't know that Lexi didn't go home last night and slept at Ethan Lu's place?
Although this wasn't the first time that she would stay a night with him— after the incident happened back on the island— it was shocking that her daughter would willingly stay at Ethan Lu's place.
Just then, Lillian Yang snapped from her stupor as she received an incoming call from Ethan Lu early in the morning. Without a second hesitation, Lillian Yang pressed the green button on her phone which connected her to the line.
”Ethan?” Slightly knitting her brows, Lillian Yang was somehow, seemed she was looking forward to whatever news Ethan Lu had for her.
”Good morning, Mom…” Sounding distressed, Ethan Lu greeted. ”Mom, I think Lexi will have to stay in my place because she was having a fever— I don't know why. I called my friend doctor to check on her— he's on his way.”
”Ohh…” Instead of panicking, Lillian Yang let out an understanding 'o' sound as if it was… normal. ”It's okay, that's normal. I will tell your Dad about it. Don't worry.”
”Thanks, Mom *sigh* I wanted to personally drop by but no one else will be here to look after Lexi.” Frowning, Ethan Lu felt it was improper to tell them the news over the phone as it was their daughter they are talking about.
Moreover, he told them that he would drive her to the Yang Mansion hence, this sudden fever Lexi was having changed all the plans he had in the first place.
”Thank's it's fine, Ethan. You both are grown-ups so there's no need to worry.” As usual, Lillian Yang's tone was motherly and soothing.
She talked to him on the line for a couple more minutes before Ethan Lu excused himself as the doctor that will check on Lexi would arrive at any moment. After she put down her phone, Frederick Yang, already wearing a formal business suit arrived in the dining area.
Seeing the expression of his wife while holding her phone under her chin, his brows furrowed. He was well-versed with his wife, thus, Frederick Yang inferred that Lillian Yang was pondering some serious matters.
”Dear, what are you thinking about with such an expression? Also, what time did Lexi come home last night?” As Frederick Yang slowly perched on the head seat, he scanned the healthy dishes that his wife prepared.
”She didn't.” Upon hearing the voice of her husband, Lillian Yang snapped from her trance and turned to see her husband. Striding towards him, she helped serve him with dishes and tea.
