Visiting time is over. Lexi exits after Lily is taken to the holding room. No more conversation between them. Only a fierce, hateful look was given Lily as a farewell greeting. Pun Lexi came out with shaky steps. His head was down, hiding the sadness he felt. Lily's words were pretty poignant. Digging into his memories into the past. A series of misfortunes befalling the people around him. Is this really her?
The incident when they were teenagers again slashed every nerve. Olivia's Death. Before Steve was named a suspect. Many people are expected, including him. Olivia's tragic death is really related to her, although she did not kill Olivia. However, at Olivia's funeral, she and her family were the only ones who came to Olivia's house to offer their condolences. Lexi accidentally sees her father giving her a considerable amount of money. He knew his family was very generous. It might not look awkward if his father gave the money in front of him and without negotiating. Yes, his father asked Olivia's mother to write her own amount. Phylida. Why is there a negotiation? Doesn't that mean something's wrong? Until now the puzzle has not been answered and Lexi tried not to find out. He believed what his father did was the best. But, in addition to that, he was not prepared to know the fact that his father did something wrong. He did not want to hate his father because he could never. So, all he did was become a sweet boy who knew nothing.
When Steve became a suspect. Mr. The president visited their home. Not just Mr. President, but also Neal's father, Vincent, Dean and Fred. All of them are powerful enough. What happened to the meeting? They spent up to five hours before one by one out of his father's study.
Steve couldn't have done that shit. But what can he do when his own father chooses silence? Lexi doesn't have any power. Is it because of his silence that makes events after terrible events continue to fall on him. Keep making it seem like the cause of everything.
His body shivered with cold. The guilt attacked him again. And what made him even more afraid, the fact that his heart justifies all of that. It all has to do with him. That's certain.
"I don't see anything interesting on the floor."
Lexi stopped her steps. Long legs with shiny black shoes blocked his way. Lexi was quite familiar with the owner of the voice. He raised his head and looked at the object in front of him with a blank look.
"I know I'm pretty awesome, but the way you look at me makes me uncomfortable." Steve pushed his eel, making the girl flinch. His consciousness had just returned.
"Oh...." Lexi turned her face away, highlighting her surroundings. Make sure he's still at the police station. Vincent walked up to him, giving an answer if he was still in the police station.
"Then why are you here?" the question came out of his mouth. Why he and Steve always met unexpectedly.
"You done yet?" Vincent catches Lexi's attention before Steve answers his question.
Lexi nodded her head. "He was devastated."
Vincent nodded, "Yes, Lily was also hysterical. It must be very heavy for you, "Vincent rubbed Lexi's arm as a form of support.
"Just like you lost a friend." Lexi and Vincent both took a deep breath. "You have to investigate the case of the death of one of your friends and the suspect is your own friend. It must be very heavy. But, Vincent, please look at Lily. He was also very shaken. Even if all the charges are proven to him, please don't be so hard."
"As a friend, I can only do what I can. It's not just me who's on duty here."
Vincent's right. The man did not have full power even though his position there was quite high.
"You came alone?"
Lexi nodded.
"I'll drive you." Vincent was just about to sue Lexi, saying Steven stopped his second move.
"I think it's a pretty serious case. You must be very busy, Mr. Trey." Nothing changed from Vincent's figure other than his increasingly stocky body. That guy must have spent a lot of time in the gym. Steve won't forget Vincent and his family. His father worked in the Trey family's vineyard and sacked his father without cause after the tragic incident. Will Vincent be the next target?
Vincent nosedived his eyebrows. Looks very confused. He only realized that Steve had been standing there since he and Lexi talked.
"I'll drop Ms. Williamson off..."
"I brought a car." Lexi interrupted quickly. Getting close to Steve is something he should avoid.
"You know him?" Vincent asked Lexi, but the look in his eyes looked in Steve's eyes. A few minutes ago, Steve just came out of the investigation room. Giving a report as a witness because based on existing CCTV, before the murder occurred, Steve was the last person recorded talking with Lily and Neal.
Lexi nodded her head. "You can continue your work, Vincent. I'll call Darren."
"You haven't answered my question." Lexi continued walking without looking at Steve.
"Questions?" Steve pushed the door, let Lexi out first.
"Why are you here? Ah, you're full of trouble."
"Yes, you're right. And my problem this time, I happened to be in King Axe. I was called to testify."
Lexi stopped the move. The girl turned around so she could look at the man's face.
"You met them?"
"I talked to your best friend. We danced together."
"Ouh, you seduced her. Did Neal see that?"
"Yes. The man came to us immediately."
"They quarreled?"
"I think so."
"What do you mean?"
"I left after her boyfriend joined. You don't expect me to be a spectator when lovers curse each other, do you? You came to visit your friend?"
Lexi nodded her head as she continued.
"How is he doing?"
"Shocks. He looks so frustrated." Lexi's face looks moody. Lily's words came back to her ears.
"Why he killed his girlfriend. Did he say anything?" Without Lexi realizing it, Steve's face looked very serious. There was even a push in the tone of his question. Don't let Lily remember their meeting and convey what she said to Lexi.
"Eitherway. He confessed that Neal had asked for it."
"Saying to be killed?" Steve chuckled and went straight to silence as Lexi floated her laser gaze.
"I don't find any jokes here. Why are you laughing?"
"Ms.Oswald was drunk. What did he tell you?"
Lexi shook her head, even though she needed a storymate. Steve is not an option. Come on, that guy's a stranger to her. Very foreign.
"You look depressed when you get out of the big room." A little relieved, because it looks like Lily did not remember her meeting with Steve.
"I just feel sorry for him. That's what friends feel when their friends are stricken. Alright, Mr. Ivarez, I have to go."
