Chapitre 203: Falling deep

Meanwhile...

"Z, what's wrong with you this morning?" Cora ma inquired, glancing at Zoey who was oddly silent as she drove, bearing that gloomy frown plastered across her lips. 

"Did... did Mr. Xi do or say something that displeased you?" Receiving no response from Zoey, Cora Ma investigated. "Perhaps, something happened last night...?" Couldn't help but wonder, Cora Ma unconsciously spouted. 

"Nothing," bearing no emotion, Zoey answered which made her frown worsen!

"Eh?" Cora Ma knitted her brows, "Then, why are you so upset?" Facing Zoey who was on the driver's seat, Cora Ma perked her chin up as her genuine concern was revealed by the gleam of her eyes. 

"Same reason, Sis. Same reason." Zoey exhaled heavily, glancing at the front passenger seat before she reverted her eyes back on the road. "It's because nothing happened last night, or rather the past three weeks!" Zoey's tone escalated from her gloomy, disheartened one to a loud rant.
