Sylvia did not know who was at the door. She could only tell that the person who was knocking did it in a rhythmic way.

The person would continue to knock on the door every few seconds. It seemed that their uninvited guest was someone who was orderly and quite persistent. Meanwhile, Kendrix had already left to answer the door. Sylvia wrapped herself underneath the quilts and was too embarrassed to even look up.

After a while, the sound of knocking stopped, and she could hear the sound of the door being opened. After that, she heard Kendrix talking to the visitor. They were speaking in a really low voice, so Sylvia could not hear the contents of their conversation.

After around three minutes, Kendrix seemed to have closed the door. Following that was the sound of his footsteps as he returned. All the while, Sylvia was still hidden under the covers and she did not dare to look up.

She felt the bed sinking underneath her a bit more, and after that, the quilt was lifted.

Sylvia widened her eyes as she saw Kendrix sitting on the edge of the bed. He was looking down at her, and a flash of light could be seen in his eyes. He smirked, "Sylvia, guess who came just now?"

"Who was it?" When Sylvia heard that, she immediately grew nervous. Her intuition told her that the person who came just now had something to do with her.

Kendrix smiled and did not speak.

Sylvia pursed her lips together. She couldn't help but rest her palm over her chest to stop it from beating so fast.

Her palms were completely covered in sweat. She looked at Kendrix and urged, "Say something."

"The person who came just now was your driver," Kendrix said with a smile.

Sylvia was so shocked that she almost jumped out of the bed. She stared at Kendrix with widened eyes.

She had never expected her driver to knock on the door.

"Are you joking with me?"

"Of course not," Kendrix snickered, "But it's fine. Your driver is just worried about you, which is why he came to have a look."

"But why did he leave before he even got to see me?" Sylvia looked at him with great suspicion.

Generally speaking, it was normal for the driver to be worried about their employers. It would have been difficult for Kendrix to dismiss the driver so easily.

Meanwhile, Kendrix still had a smirk on his face, his eyes glimmering with glee.

Sylvia's heart was already about to jump out of her chest when she saw that Kendrix wasn't worried at all. She widened her eyes and looked at him with silent accusations.

"Why are you so anxious?" Kendrix laughed, "He won't say too much to your parents."

"What did you tell him?" Sylvia grew even more anxious as her cheeks were flushed red.

"Instead of being worried about this, it would be better for you to make a call to him," Kendrix said with a smile, "I told him that you will call him later." "He left just like that?" Sylvia did not believe what Kendrix said. She clearly heard him talking for quite some time outside just now.

Things were definitely not that simple.

Kendrix could only chuckle. He was quite amazed at Sylvia's insight.

He smiled, "Your driver is really something. He is obviously afraid that something will happen to you, yet he does not dare to offend you. When he spoke, he was very serious."

Sylvia was stunned and asked, "Did the driver cause you any trouble?"

"No, he just said that he needs to see you," Kendrix laughed.

"You still haven't told me what you said to him," Sylvia was very curious about what Kendrix told the driver. He must've said something special. Otherwise, the driver would not have left. "You don't have to worry about what I said. Call him first, and let him know that you are alright."

It was obvious that Kendrix did not want to tell her what he said.

Sylvia was stunned and thought that maybe Kendrix was a little embarrassed. Hence, she nodded and agreed, "Okay, I will make a call to him now."

With that, she took out her phone and realized that there were five to six missed calls.

She had turned off her phone when she was taking a rest just now in fears that she would disturb Kendrix's sleep.

She did not expect all of the missed calls to be from her driver.

It seemed like the driver did not remember what she had told him before, and that he still thought of her as a kid.

Sylvia frowned. She immediately called her driver back, only to have his frantic voice ask instantly after picking up, "Miss Sylvia, is that you?"

"Yes, it's me," Sylvia said, sounding a little impatient, "Didn't I tell you? You can go and do whatever you should be doing. I will call you if anything happens. You don't have to worry, nor do you have to come here and bother me."

She spoke quickly in an accusing tone. The driver could only apologize furiously, "I am sorry, Miss Sylvia. I was just too worried."

"What are you worried about?" Sylvia asked, "You don't have to bother me anymore. Just go about with your own business. I will call you if I need something."

"I am not worried anymore. Mr. Trevino has told me about it. I know that he is a man who keeps his promise," The driver was heard chuckling, "Miss Sylvia, please enjoy yourself. I won't disturb you anymore." "Wait," Sylvia eventually decided to ask, "What did Mr. Trevino tell you?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Mr. Trevino said that he asked you to contact me, and after hearing your voice, I am finally relieved." "Is that so?" Sylvia obviously did not believe him and asked incredulously, "Did he really just tell you that?"

"That's right, Miss Sylvia," The driver laughed, "Mr. Trevino is a good person. You have good taste in men."

Sylvia still felt puzzled. She looked into Kendrix's direction suspiciously and realized that he was looking at her with an intense gaze. Almost immediately, Sylvia looked down.

She endured the embarrassment she felt and cleared her throat in reply, "Okay, I got it."

It was a little strange for the driver to

compliment Mr. Trevino. However, Kendrix was right in front of her, and it would not be appropriate for her to continge asking the driver about what Kendrix said. Hence, she hung up the phone hastily.

After placing her phone down, she turned to look at Kendrix and eyed him, "Even though I don't know what you told the driver, it is definitely not as simple as what you said just now. However, I won't ask anymore so as to not make things awkward for everyone."

Upon hearing this, Kendrix was caught off guard and laughed. He reached out and touched her nose, asking dotingly, "Are you hungry?"

Everything was fine before he mentioned that. Oncehe did, her stomach started to growl.

Sylvia nodded, "The breakfast I brought must be cold already, so we need to heat it up. Do you know how to do that?"

When she said that, she felt a little ashamed because she did not know how to cook.

Upon hearing this, Kendrix laughed even more unscrupulously, "Of course I know how to do that. Come on, I will heat it up, and then we will eat."

With that, Kendrix held her hand and brought her out.

They packed up the food together. Sylvia watched as Kendrix's tall and busy figure darted around in the kitchen. She continued to stare at him, her gaze not moving an inch away from him.
