Chapitre 575: Please, help us...

"N—no..." Instead of picking up the cup of tea, Victoria Tang retracted her trembling hands. 

"Vic..." Alarmed by her reaction, Lexi knitted her brows more as she locked her gaze on her. "You can tell me — was Lou hurting you?" Lexi probed. 

"N-no, it's not like that." Shaking her head sideways, Victoria Tang mustered her courage to raise her eyes and meet Lexi's investigative gaze. "Lou will never hurt me." She reassured yet, her tone wasn't as confident as it should sound. 

"What happened...?" Sizing her up, Lexi pressed her lips together as her eyes softened. 

She wasn't that close with the woman, but Lexi still considered her as part of the family. After all, Victoria Tang was Ethan Lu's childhood friend, also the mother of Louis Lu's son. Therefore, even though Louis Lu and Victoria Tang weren't legally married yet, Lexi had already perceived her as Louis Lu's wife.
