513 Dead mea (1/2)

Several hours later...

Lexi paced back and forth as she anxiously waited for Ethan Lu to arrive. Since Ethan Lu informed her that he would be going home today, even though Lexi was worried, she couldn't even tell if the plane that he would ride would crash or not.

Therefore, Lexi could only pray tirelessly for his safety. Also, she wanted to see him safe and sound. Still, waiting for only several hours felt forever.

”Madam, Master's flight had arrived. You should sit first.” Jarred Guo said. He had been watching Lexi walked back and forth, sometimes, looked at the arrival area from time to time. Hence, he could not bear to watch her any longer as Ethan Lu's landed safely. Moreover, he was already dizzy watching Lexi.

”Thank God,” Lexi heaved a sigh of relief upon the news that the plane where her husband boarded landed safely. Even after hearing that her husband wasn't on board in the plane crash yesterday, she got paranoid about his safety.

Imagine, she nearly lost her husband! She almost became a widow and her twins nearly lost their father. Thus, how could she sleep last night after having that fear creeping out from her heart?

Could anyone blame her? Not to mention, the whole Lu Corporation was in chaos after the news, and Lexi had to go to the main residence to reassure Grandpa Lu.

Overall, it was an unpleasant experience. Still, one way or another, Lexi's maturity blossomed because of that fear. It reminded her of her childishness.

If Ethan Lu died yesterday, she would regret their last argument that she caused. If he died last night, Lexi would have left with many regrets for not spending more time with him, and for not expressing how much she love him.

There would be a never-ending 'I should have'. Hence, Lexi wanted to prioritize her family — making them feel her love every second of every day.

Because life was unpredictable, and last night was a true eye-opener for her to realize that.

Soon, from the corner of her eyes, Lexi caught Ethan Lu's figure dragging his luggage. She turned and confirmed that it was truly him.

Relief, pure bliss, and yearning enveloped her heart in a snap. ”Ethan...” she whispered along with a sigh of relief.

Yet, her eyes stung, causing tears to build up from the side of her eyes as a lump was stuck on her throat. She watched him drew closer and closer to him as her tears blur her vision.

'Thank God...' She thanked internally. Lexi wasn't a religious person but, since last night, she got to know how to sincerely pray for her family's safety and thanked the Absolute One for all the underrated miracles she never noticed.

The every day miracle of being able to wake up, be with her loved ones, and end the day with them. She had never appreciated it more than she appreciates it now.

”Jeez, why are you crying?” Ethan Lu stopped two steps away from her, his lips stretched from ear to ear, and his heart warmed up.
