Chapter 254 Weird... like always (2/2)

No matter how hard Lexi tried to forget or throw it into the deepest part of the back of her mind, she just could not let it be. She knew, inside her recuperating heart, she was missing something or someone. Her heart was certain that it was something even more important than what she thought it was, which was silently stressing her to another degree.

”Sissy,” Staring at Lexi's exasperated front, Louis Lu emotionlessly muttered which made her raise her head and stared back at him.

”That's what I heard, you said something, 'Sissy, don't go,' like that.” Louis Lu clarified, hoping that it would help her a bit but to no avail, Lexi remained silent as those words kept on repeating on her mind.

”I see...” Slowly nodding in understanding, Lexi meekly smiled. ”Thanks, it means a lot.” Unlike her insincere appreciation earlier, this time, Lexi was more candid as she expressed her gratitude.

Granted that hearing what she said that night still didn't ring a bell in her head, still, her heart felt closer to her lost memories. Therefore, she appreciated Louis Lu for giving her empathy despite his disapproval towards her.

”I still don't like you though.” Nodding once, Louis Lu's 'welcome, no problem' made her pursed her lips on a thin line to suppress the threatening chuckles urging to escape her mouth.

'I guess the Lu family is filled with a weird bunch-- or not.' She thought inwardly as she already noticed Louis Lu's peculiarities, especially now that she had a short conversation with him. Nonetheless, Lexi realized that the guy wasn't as unlikable as she initially thought. Still, there was a line she had set just for any cases that Louis Lu was also coming after her boyfriend.

”Don't worry about it-- no one here is getting the wrong idea. As I said, the feeling is mutual.” Nonchalantly shrugging her shoulders, Lexi didn't allow the yearning that her heart desired as she modestly chuckled.

Louis Lu didn't respond any more as he resumed to go to his car. He didn't even give Lexi a second glance as he hitched onto his vehicle and started revving up its engine.

On the other hand, as Lexi watched the sedan start moving, she unhurriedly made her way back to where her lover was. After all, he was probably waiting in anxiousness. Indeed, Lexi guessed that much from Ethan Lu as he would say and act things but scheme and make excuses at the same time.

Just thinking about it, a subtle smile formed on the side of her lips. 'Thank God, I have him... He makes things a little bit better for me, more tolerable.'

Meanwhile, inside the black sedan, Louis Lu glanced on the rearview mirror where he had a glimpse of Lexi's back as she headed inside the villa. ”Weird... like always.”
