"You wanted to avenge me?" Vicky walked to the window and looked out at the boundless night sky. "Then why didn't you tell me who you were beforehand? Surely you must be aware of what your parents think of me."
"Vicky, it's true that my parents have some misunderstanding about you. That's why I brought you over so that I can help you clear up the misunderstanding."
"Well, if you can call making your mother so angry that she passed up as an attempt to clear our misunderstanding..."
Lincoln replied in a remorseful tone, "I'm sorry. I didn't know she would get so worked up. It's my fault for not thinking it through. She woke up earlier and I've already explained everything to her, so there's no more understanding between the two of you."
"Really?" Vicky did not really believe him.
The vibe between two people could be a tricky thing. Take Valencia for example. She had disliked Vicky the moment she laid eyes on her, and no matter what the latter did, she would never change her opinion of her.
Lincoln could hear the disbelief in her tone. He chuckled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can come visit her tomorrow. Then you'll see for yourself that I'm telling you the truth. I really did explain to her what happened years ago, so she doesn't dislike you as much as before."
Vicky knew some impressions could not be changed with just a few words as they were too deeply ingrained in a person's psyche.
After thinking for a few seconds, she finally said, "Alright. I'll visit your mother tomorrow."
"Great. You should sleep early. I'll be waiting for you at the hospital tomorrow."
…
Vicky went straight to the hospital after taking her breakfast. She and Valencia shared the same sentiment toward each other. The reason she agreed to visit Valencia was because she had something she wanted to ask Lincoln face-to-face.
