Sylvia's eyes were glued on Kendrix for a long time. She looked into Kendrix's eyes as she stood at the door, not leaving the spot.
As soon as Gary left, Kendrix frowned. He then looked at Sylvia as he came back to his senses and said in a slightly emotional voice, "Sylvia, your brother is mental. He needs to be treated."
Sylvia was stunned for a moment, and after hearing Kendrix's words, she suddenly felt a little down.
What she wanted to hear was definitely not those words.
She happened to hear what Mr. Trevino said at the door earlier on as she was standing there.
He said he fell in love with her at first sight.
Sylvia was extremely shocked in her heart.
She was very surprised, delighted, and very excited.
Her heart suddenly swelled with joy.
Kendrix was definitely not the kind of person who would say those words, but he did.
How could Sylvia not be delighted?
She gawked at Kendrix, feeling that her heart was still beating wildly.
Her heart was beating extremely fast, and it felt like it was going to jump out of her chest.
After saying that, Kendrix looked up at Sylvia. He realized that Sylvia was still looking at him, but the disappointment in her eyes was obvious.
Kendrix was stunned, but he didn't show any reaction on his face.
He looked emotionless.
Sylvia came to her senses quickly too. She looked at Kendrix and said absent-mindedly, "Mr. Trevino, I heard what you just said."
Kendrix's shifted his gaze, but he still looked calm. Then he looked down and said, "Your brother wouldn't leave unless I said that to him."
"Mr. Trevino, you're not the kind of person who would compromise," Sylvia said as she chuckled.
Hearing that, Kendrix's eyes sharpened slightly. "Do you think you know me very well?"
Sylvia also looked straight into Kendrix's eyes. "I don't know much about you, but I feel that you are a person who wouldn't easily compromise. I know very well that my eldest brother is not mental."
Kendrix frowned. She was just like her brother, they just wouldn't let people off at all.
Kendrix asked, "What did you want to see me about?"
"Mr. Trevino, I heard what you said just now. You said that you fell in love with me at first sight and you wanted to protect me. Let me ask you, is this true?" Sylvia asked word by word.
She just couldn't let go of that question.
She had to ask clearly and to find out the truth. If she didn't, she wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
Kendrix found that the situation then seemed to be a deadlock.
Looking at her serious look, he felt like he was getting a headache again.
Taking a deep breath, Kendrix fixed his eyes on Sylvia.
He knew that he had to answer the question cautiously.
"Mr. Trevino, I always thought you were different." Before he spoke, Sylvia said.
"You don't have to remind me." Kendrix interrupted what she wanted to say. Sylvia wanted to listen to the truth in his heart, and he knew how to answer her question, and still keep her from getting hurt.
Sylvia pursed her lips. It seemed that Mr. Trevino knew what she wanted to remind him.
She then smiled and waited for Kendrix's answer.
Kendrix looked at her. They were far apart, and he was looking at her without avoidance.
His gaze was very deep. He said word by word, "Sylvia, you are only 16."
Sylvia was stunned.
She somehow felt a little disappointed.
Her eyes dimmed, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
Kendrix said again, "I am your teacher. Although it is temporary, I am still your teacher."
Kendrix emphasized on the word "teacher".
Sylvia had originally been very sad, but upon hearing that, she suddenly began to laugh.
She raised her eyes and looked at Kendrix again, her eyes were particularly sparkly. When she looked at Kendrix, she immediately smiled warmly.
"I see, Mr. Trevino. I understand it," she said.
Kendrix was stunned and fixed his eyes on the little girl.
She smiled so happily as if she suddenly understood something.
