"Wait— what?!" Upon hearing Elliot Gong's audible whisper that was able to enter Rika's busybody ear radar, her eyes dilated by the news.
Due to her excitement, Rika lightly slammed her palm on the surface of the bar counter as she abruptly stood and slid closer to Lexi's side— snatching her hand and clasped them in between hers.
"B- Bestie! Is that true?!? Why didn't you mention it to me?!"
"Uh-huh, when did you two became official?" Seconding Rika, Elliot Gong probed further with intrigue and disbelief at the same time.
To his understanding, Lexi and his friend Ethan Lu wouldn't be in an official relationship just yet. After all, Lexi just came out from her engagement drama with his other friend Morris Liu. Therefore, despite the weirdness of Ethan Lu suddenly having an inkling to her— Elliot Gong was so sure that she wouldn't accept him just yet! But what just happened?
'Is Ethan's spell that strong?' He thought inwardly.
