Chapter 2204
Fifteen minutester.
At the hotel.
When Sylvia before Kendrix at the hotel.
It was not because he drove too slow, but because udia had contacted him a littleter.
So when Sylvia arrived, Kendrix was not there yet.
The driver brought Sylvia up to the room and made sure udia was there before he dared to leave.
Sylvia said to the driver, "Wait for me downstairs. I''lle down in half an hour."
"All right. If you need anything, call me," the driver reminded her.
"All right."
Only then did the driver leave.
Sylvia looked at udia.
udia''s eyes were slightly red and misty.
It seemed that she had been crying.
To be able to make udia cry, Sebastian sure was something else. Sylvia thought to herself.
Although Sylvia had not known udia for long, she knew enough to know that udia would not shed a tear that easily. As far as she knew, udia was strong and stubborn.
If udia cried, it must be over something serious.
Sylvia did not want to beat around the bush, so she asked frankly, "What did Sebastian say? Did he hurt you? Tell me. I''ll get back at him for you." Hearing that, udiaughed and shook her head. "I''m gratified and touched by your words, but he didn''t do anything wrong."
"He didn''t do anything wrong? Then why did you cry? Are you going to tell me something got in your eye? I won''t believe you if you say that." Sylvia''s response put a stop to the excuse udia was about to give. udia sighed. "Couldn''t you save me some face?"
"Then tell me the reason you cried."
udia pursed her lips. She did not want to let Sylvia know.
Sylvia seemed to realize that there were things she could not force udia to say.
Even as a very close friend, she could not cross that line.
She gazed at udia, sensing that udia was in a dilemma. udia looked hesitant, seeming as if there was something she did not want to reveal. Sylvia finally said, "Forget it. If it''s too much, I won''t force you to tell me."
udia was stunned to hear her words. She could not help chuckling. "You''re far more open-minded than I thought you were. Thank you for not forcing me."
It seemed that something terrible happened. Sylvia thought to herself.
Seeing the bitter smile on udia''s face, Sylvia could not bear to pressure her for an answer. Therefore, she quickly changed the subject. "Are you going to stay at the hotel?"
"For the time being. I''ll find somewhere elseter. I''m nning to rent an apartment. But before that, I''ll be staying here."
"You can stay at my ce with me," Sylvia offered.
udia immediately shook her head. "That''s quite all right. It''s the holidays, and I don''t want to bother you."
"Why are you being so polite to me?" Sylvia asked.
"I''m just telling the truth," said udia. "Besides, I''ll be living in Northern City in the future. I''ll have to depend on myself for many things. Aren''t you just treating me like an outsider?" Sylvia protested. She wanted udia to go back with her.
"I''m not! Listen to me. First of all, I work nearby, so I should find a ce here to stay. Secondly, I don''t know what''s the rtionship between you and Kendrix now. Although I know that you regard me as a friend, your mother is pregnant. I wouldn''t want to trouble her," udia exined.
"So, you thought it through, huh?" Sylvia replied. Nheless, she still felt like udia was treating her like a stranger. The more she thought about
it, the more she felt that Sebastian must have said something to hurt udia.
She could not help sensing that udia seemed dejected.
Was udia going to give up on Sebastian? Sylvia wondered.
She had wanted to ask, but after seeing udia, she changed her mind.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door. udia said, "Kendrix must be here."Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
When udia mentioned Kendrix''s name, Sylvia became even more nervous. He must not have expected her to arrive before him.
udia opened the door, still in a trance-like state. As expected, it was Kendrix.
His tall figure stood by the door, frozen to the spot from the shock of seeing Sylvia.
"You came."
That was the first sentence Kendrix said. He did not even greet udia.
udia smiled meaningfully and said, "Kendrix, why are you speaking to Sylvia when you saw me first?"
He looked down at her and said calmly, "Weren''t you the one who didn''t return my calls?"
udia was taken aback and immediately fell silent.
Sylvia lowered her gaze, avoiding looking at Kendrix.
Kendrix walked straight in and toward her. Seeing that she was averting her gaze, he smiled and said calmly, "Didn''t I tell you to go home?"
"I told you. I was worried about udia." Sylvia finally raised her head and met his gaze.
udia closed the door. Ignoring the awkward atmosphere between them, she said, "You two go ahead and chat. I''m going to use the bathroom." "Since you''ve checked yourself into a hotel, there''s nothing for us to worry about anymore. I''m taking Sylvia home," Kendrix replied.
"What?" udia was stunned. "So you two came here to meet up?"
Kendrix ignored her and said to Sylvia, "Let''s go. I''ll take you home."
"The driver is waiting for me downstairs, Sylvia answered. She felt that he was not paying enough attention to udia. Without even asking about udia''s condition, he was already nning to leave. Was he really udia''s cousin?
"Mr. Trevino, you''d better stay here. I''ll go downstairs by myself," Sylvia said.
Kendrix replied immediately, "There''s no need for that. She''s fine. I''ll take you downstairs."
Ignoring udia, he led Sylvia out of the room. udia watched as they left, feeling aggrieved.
After they stepped out of udia''s room, Sylvia said to Kendrix, "udia is looking for a ce to rent. You''re her cousin. Shouldn''t you help her?" "That can wait until tomorrow, right? We won''t be able to do anything about it at such ate hour," he retorted.
She fell silent.
Then, she raised her head to look at Kendrix''s handsome face and said in a low voice, "udia must have gone through something. You should be more concerned about her."
Sylvia thought that Kendrix would agree with her. However, he replied, "If I should be concerned about someone, it should be my girlfriend, not my
cousin."
