580 Find answer yourself (2/2)
”Aren't we friends slash cousins'?” Surprised by the deep bow, Lexi helped her raised her head with a grin.
”Thank you,” Victoria Tang eyes softened even more as her eyes sting. Without second hesitation, Victoria Tang hugged Lexi as she stopped herself from crying.
All these years, the years she spent alone after having Vincent Tang, Victoria Tang didn't have anyone to turn to. Her family disowned her for getting herself pregnant out of wedlock.
Not to mention, the rumors and odd glances of everyone around her for being a single mother, Victoria Tang had gone through a lot and she only had her son.
But now, Lexi showed nothing but sincere best wishes for her. She was just a cousin, Lexi was more like a loving sister and a genuine friend.
This made Victoria Tang be at ease that Ethan Lu had a wonderful wife. No wonder Ethan Lu had matured into a good, reliable man because he had a wife like Lexi.
”Everything will be fine, okay? Let's keep in touch.” Lexi patted Victoria Tang's back gently. Whatever unsaid words they kept inside, it didn't need to be uttered as this warm hug was enough.
After that, Victoria Tang rolled her things inside the gallery while Kevin and Lexi remained outside.
”Well, I should go too.” When Victoria Tang entered, Lexi moved her gaze to Kevin Woo, who was also staring at the entrance of the establishment.
”Ahh... ” nodding his head, Kevin Woo was momentarily speechless. He wanted to say something to her but to no avail, he could only watch Lexi head back to the driver's seat.
”Wait—!” When Lexi opened the door of the driver's seat, Kevin Woo finally mustered his courage and jogged towards her.
”Hmm?” Blinking her eyes more than once, Lexi tilted her head to the side as she patiently waited for whatever he wanted to say.
”I — how was she?” Despite knowing that Lexi might not answer him or she might be enrage, Kevin Woo still asked about Mia Chen out of curiosity.
”You...”
”I know, it's shameless of me to ask you but...” Assuming that Lexi was mad, Kevin Woo heaved a heavy sigh. ”... I just want to know if she was doing fine. Sorry.” He might have slightly moved on from the incident but he could not just magically erase her in his heart.
There were still questions he sought for answers. Yet, he didn't want to disappoint his friends further by meeting her.
”Why are you saying sorry? Kevin, why don't you find answer yourself?” Smiling, Lexi set her eyes on Kevin Woo's pair of curious eyes. ”All we did was to secure our lives without her threat, but we won't take away your right to have answers for your questions.” She added with a smile before patting his shoulder.
”I'll see you around.” Lexi said before she entered the driver's seat and Kevin Woo took a step back and watched her speed away.
