A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 356

Lexi glanced over Vincent's face with an indifferent gaze. The light was shining above the two of them. She sluggishly leaned on the sofa while he slowly kneeled. His eyes were blazing, which made her feel strange.

With just a simple match-up of black opened cheongsam and a pair of long black pants, he looked so fine and reserved.

Through the slightly opened collar, she could faintly see his well-built chest. He slightly rolled his sleeves up, showing his healthy muscles...

As for the fresh flowers he was holding in his left hand... Those were 99 roses, right?

A slight pain got mixed up with emotions that Lexi didn't know about. What was he doing?

“Lexi?” Vincent had to stuff the flowers into her embrace since she wasn't willing to accept them.

People around them gasped.

“Lexi, your ego is too big! Mr. White even personally apologized!”

“That's right! Just forgive Mr. White!”...

Vincent took out a jewelry box and opened it, which had a sapphire necklace in it, and the heart-shaped pendant was very dazzling.

“Whoa...” people around them gasped in awe.

Lexi was dumbfounded, and didn't know what to do as she held the flowers.

“Lexi, this is your graduation gift, do you like it?” his voice was gentle as he took the necklace out and put it on for her.

That necklace was so beautiful and expensive, that it made a group of women and even men feel very envious and jealous of it! A handsome man and a beautiful woman were always so visually attractive.

The lively party became so silent because of Vincent's action. At that graduation party, Lexi was undoubtedly the person that people focused on the most.

“Lexi?” Vincent looked at the dim-witted Lexi, her pupils seemed like scattering and she also slightly frowned... He finally realized that something was wrong so he quickly touched her face and felt that her skin was burning hot, “Lexi? What's wrong?”

Right when Lexi closed her eyes, she felt the world spinning around and fainted.

“Lexi...” along with Vincent's tense shout, the party became chaotic, "Manager Billy, send a car to go to the hospital!”

“Lexi, Lexi? You finally woke up!” Vincent's anxious gaze suddenly brightened up.

Lexi slowly opened her eyes and looked into Vincent's caring eyes.

What happened?

Those eyes looked so gentle and caring, which were very enchanting.

Like she stepped on the cloud, her body felt so light, weak, cold, without any strength at all.

On the next moment, she went into a warm and wide embrace.

“Lexi, thank goodness, you're okay!” as if Vincent sighed out of relief, he hugged her tightly like he's afraid of losing her.

Lexi looked up and saw the bottle of saline hanging up there. Was she at the hospital?

All the memories surged back to Lexi's mind, including the graduation party where he apologized to her... She also remembered that she was having a fever, he gave her roses and a necklace, and then she seemed to hear his anxious shout. That's an illusion. Yeah, it must be an illusion.

Vincent was still hugging her tightly at that time, and she could even feel Vincent's anxiousness for her.

Was that still an illusion? He's worried about her?

In Vincent's embrace, Lexi silently looked at his anxious face... He didn't fake that, so her heart somehow calmed down.

Vincent... He's concerned about her?

Lexi glanced at Vincent's angry but worried face, and she then laughed at herself... As expected, she was really confused because of her fever. How could she see anxiousness and distress on his face?

Was that so?

As if there was a bit of warmth that penetrated through her heart, Lexi tried hard to warn herself so she wouldn't overthink it.

She softly closed her eyes and snuggled her little face into his firm embrace, absorbing his breath and tenderness beneath his cold appearance. At such time, she hoped that time would just stop.

Vincent became worried again since Lexi didn't answer him for a long time, “Lexi, you're okay, right? I'll find the doctor!”

“No need...” she said with a hoarse voice.

Vincent looked at her, her watery eyes that had lots of things to say made him feel more distressed and so he looked at her worriedly, “Do you still feel hot?”

He rubbed her forehead to check whether her fever had gone down after two hours of IV drip... It felt like the fever had gone down because it wasn't as hot as it was before.

“What happened to me?” she shook her head, still feeling headache.

“Getting such a high fever, what happened? How could you get such a high fever?” seeing how miserable she was, he felt distressed, “You just fainted! Did you not sleep last night?”

Lexi didn't say anything because she didn't sleep all night last night.

Soon, the IV drip was all used up... After pressing the bell on the head of the bed, the nurse walked in to measure Lexi's body temperature, “Your fever has gone!”

“Can I go home now?” Lexi asked.

“I'll ask the doctor!” The nurse walked out after she pulled the needle out, then she came back and told them that they could go home.
