Chapter 2108
Sylvia's mind was a blank. She could not believe such a possibility.
It was impossible.
But if it had not been meant for Sylvia, then why would Kendrix say such a thing to Claudia? Sylvia wondered.
"But I can't necessarily assume that it was meant for me," Sylvia reasoned. "Maybe he said it to you. You're his cousin, so he had to tell you he was leaving. It must be for you."
"Tsk! I thought you were smart and confident. I didn't expect you to have no confidence in yourself at such a crucial time," said Claudia.
"How can I be confident?" Sylvia let out a wry smile and mumbled, "You don't know how cold he is to me. Plus, we never got to know much about each other."
"Well, I know him." Claudia glanced at Sylvia. She did not like to see Sylvia unconfident. "Cheer up! Have some confidence. I hate seeing you like this. I already told you he meant it for you, so what are you going to do next?"
Sylvia smiled and said, "I'm going to find him. I'll go now."
"What?" Claudia was shocked by Sylvia's resoluteness.
However, at the same time, she admired Sylvia for that. In her heart, she praised Sylvia.
"Yes, I'm going to see him now," Sylvia declared. "Now that I know he has been lying to me, I want to make things clear. What's more, he's leaving tomorrow. If he suddenly disappears, where will I look for him?"
"At his home, of course." Claudia smiled and said, "You still have me, don't you? I can tell you his address."
Glancing at Claudia, Sylvia laughed and said, "We can't be too sure of that. Either way, I'm leaving to see him now."
"Really?" Claudia blinked, her eyes sparkling. She was looking forward to seeing Kendrix's expression when he saw Sylvia.
"Of course."
"All right. I'll accompany you," Claudia volunteered.
"Okay. I'll inform the butler and have him arrange for the driver to take us there. But you can't go upstairs with me." Sylvia knew a proud man like Kendrix would not say anything if Claudia was there.
Moreover, she did not want anyone but him to hear what she was going to say.
"I'll wait for you in the car when we get there. You can go up and talk to him yourself," Claudia said with a grin. "Come on. Let's go."
With that, they stopped chatting and went out in the middle of the night.
Before they left, Sylvia changed into a white dress, put on some makeup, and tied her hair back.
She looked youthful and beautiful, yet she was not satisfied with it. She looked at Claudia, "What do you think? Do I look okay?"
Claudia looked Sylvia up and down and said, "Not bad, but it's a little too childish. Go change into something more mature. Who knows what Kendrix will do to you later?"
"Nonsense! Mr. Trevino is not such a person," Sylvia retorted. She did not like how Claudia described the person she liked. "He's a gentleman, and he holds on to his principles."
Claudia laughed. "Look at you. You're adorable when you're gushing about the person you like. All right. You look good. Now let's go." "Okay!"
The butler had no choice but to ask Clinton to take them to the apartment.
After arriving, Claudia said, "You must be very familiar with this place. I won't go up with you, although I want to."
Sylvia shook her head. "No. I can find my way on my own. Wait for me here. I won't take long, so don't worry."
"Miss Sylvia," Clinton said, concerned. "It's getting late. If something happened to you, I wouldn't be able to explain to the President." "Don't worry, Clinton. I won't cause trouble for you," Sylvia said. She got out of the car and walked toward Kendrix's apartment. Soon, she was standing in front of his door and ringing the doorbell.
After a while, Kendrix opened the door.
They looked at each other.
Sylvia's heart was beating wildly.
Kendrix was in a white shirt and dark-colored trousers. Although it was only a simple outfit, it brought out his manliness and charm. He exuded the maturity of a man.
She glanced at him and completely forgot why she came. She could only stand and stare at him.
When he saw her at the door, he did not seem surprised.
It was as if he had anticipated everything. He reacted calmly, saying. "Why are you here?"
Although his words were cold to dishearten her, she smiled and said, "I'm here to see you. To claim the wish you promised me."
Kendrix frowned as he looked at her closely for a few seconds. Then, he looked away, saying, "You're quite persistent."
"Yes, I am. Not only am I persistent, but I'm also faithful," she replied.
Stunned by her words, he turned to look at her again.
The two of them stood at the door, one inside and the other outside. Thinking that it would be hard to continue talking like that, Sylvia asked, "Can we talk inside? It's cold out"

She had to make up an excuse and hope that he would not refuse.
However, she was determined not to let her sadness get the better of her if he did refuse.
She was not going to give up, especially when she already knew the truth. She had to be brave and forge ahead.
"No," Kendrix replied coldly.
Sylvia's chest tightened. Sure enough, he refused her. But she had been prepared.
She was not upset. Instead, she smiled and said,Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
"If you don't let me in, I'll burst into tears now."
Kendrix frowned.
Seeing the slight change in his
expression, Sylvia grinned wider. Her
pleased expression and shining eyes made her look adorable and charming.
"If I cry, everyone will be curious why
I'm here, and it'll cause trouble for you. I don't mind my reputation, but whatabout yours?" She made it clear she was threatening him.
Sure enough, Kendrix's eyes narrowed, and he stared at her for a long time.
She did not intend to wait any longer because it was killing her.
She went into the apartment.
He continued frowning when he saw her inviting herself in. A chilling aura emanated from him, cold and intimidating.
If it were any other day, Sylvia would have closed her eyes and shivered in fear. But that day, she was determined to take the risk. She bent slightly and wormed her way under Kendrix's arm.
