Chapter 488 Reuniting With Alicia

“I must compensate you, for it’s my fault for damaging your car. Furthermore, as long as the amount is fair, I don’t want to cause you any more trouble.”

Although I had proposed to the driver that we resolve it with the insurance company, I didn’t feel like going through all that hassle. After all, I simply felt that he was asking for too much. Now that Alicia appeared to be very polite, I decided not to make things any more difficult.

“There’s really no need to. Meeting you today is the happiest thing to have occurred to me.”

At that moment, Alicia alighted from her vehicle and smiled ear to ear at me.

Knitting my brows curiously, I didn’t understand why she was reacting that way. After all, we didn’t know each other at all. Also, I wondered what she meant when she said that meeting me was the happiest thing to have happened to her.

“Mrs. Campbell, how do you know me?”

I cleared my throat awkwardly due to the uneasiness I felt from her words. The way she looked at me was so affectionate that I didn’t know what to feel.

“I have known you since a long time ago and thought that I would never see you again. But today, I didn’t expect fate to be kind enough to have reunited us.”

Just as Alicia was speaking, she held my hands and looked at me with tears welling up in her eyes.

When I saw how emotional she was, I anxiously wanted to console her but didn’t know what to say. The way she looked at me felt so intensely familial that she could’ve been mistaken for my mother.

As she held my hands tightly, I felt a little uncomfortable. After all, I wasn’t used to making physical contact with strangers.

“Mrs. Campbell, in that case, why don’t I call the insurance company? it will be fairer that way.”
