Chapter 377 - My sister just gave birth. (2/2)
”Eli, Miss Song is calling.”
”Huh? What does she wants this time?” Arching his brows, Elliot Gong immediately assumed that Rika Song needed something again. However, his assistant's next words piqued his interest.
”Also, Mr. Lu's assistant also left a missed call.”
”Huh? What's up with them? Give me the phone.” After excusing himself, Elliot Gong walked over to the side along with his assistant before he handed his hand out to receive the phone.
Without further ado, Elliot Gong searched Rika Song's private number which he easily found. Elliot Gong then rang her phone and waited for at least four rings before it was picked up.
”Eli—!”
”What? If this is about you and your boyfriend breaking up, I'll hang up.” The moment the line connected, Elliot Gong, in a matter of fact tone muttered as a greeting.
God knows how much Rika Song pestered him with her unstable relationship with that doctor. Especially when Lexi had undergone the critical stage of her pregnancy and they were well aware that she didn't need the stress. Hence, Rika Song chose him to be her outlet.
”Excuse me? What boyfriend? I don't remember having one!” Rolling her eyes, Rika Song scoffed as if she was utterly dismayed at being reminded of Jaime Liao. ”For your information, I, Rika Song am not just a rare kind of diamond but also the prettiest auntie! Duh?”
”Auntie?” Knitting his brows, Elliot Gong didn't remember that Rika Song was close to her own family as everyone in her family was a complete trash. Therefore, Rika Song doesn't mention anything about her family.
Not unless, what she meant was... just then, recalling that there was this certain pregnant woman that was close to the two of them, Elliot Gong's eyes widened.
”My bestie delivered two cute babies! That's why I'm calling because you can't miss out on this. Come back!” Knowing that he had already guessed her reason behind her call, Rika Song still wanted to confirm his assumptions.
Also, since Elliot Gong hadn't been in the country for a while, it would be a good time to reunite as Lexi, Rika Song, and Elliot Gong unexpectedly had grown closer to each other— sharing group calls sometimes.
It was safe to say that Elliot Gong, though was shocked himself, he admitted that he was closer to Lexi and Rika Song now. After all, his friends were all busy dealing with their own stuff.
Surely, life has tons of twists and turns. People come and go. Still, he was grateful that the people that were active in his life, though they were the least likely individuals he expected to take some special seat in his heart, he was glad and blessed to have Lexi and Rika Song as his sisters from another mother.
”Eli! Let's have dinner together!” One of the crew waved his hands in his direction as he invited him to attend their dinner to celebrate the end of their filming.
Subtly smiling, Elliot Gong ended the call without a word as he jogged back to the crew of the production team.
”I'm sorry but I have to go back to my home country— my sister just gave birth.” Sincere, Elliot Gong emanated a bright vibe as he was happy for Lexi and Ethan Lu's milestone.
