Chapter 100
Morris didn’t reply to Vivian. He only felt that her words were full of loopholes.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
In particular, Vivian’s kidnap last time was directly related to Lee family.
At that time, Morris was not interested in this matter and did not want to investigate it further. But at this moment…
he really wanted to know.
After a while, Vivian felt bored sitting there, so she returned to the Village Chief’s house and lay in bed to rest.
Yeon had already fallen asleep. Perhaps she was in a good mood. Even in her sleep, she had a smile on her face and looked very happy.
Lying in bed, Vivian didn’t know how long it took for her to fall asleep.
The next day, she was woken up by Yeon.
“What did you do with Morris last night? I waited for you at home for so long but you didn’t come back.”
Yeon sat cross-legged on the bed, holding her chin with both hands. She looked at Vivian curiously, hoping to get an answer from her.
“We watched the moon.”
She closed her eyes and muttered.
“What? You actually watched the moon with Morris?”
Yeon couldn’t help exclaiming. Envy, jealousy, and hate welled up inside her.
A scream directly scared Vivian’s slumber away. She sat up from the bed and glared at Yeon. “Aren’t you talking nonsense? You asked me to ask him out. I asked him out. If I hadn’t found an excuse to make him believe that I was looking for him, how could I ask him out in the future?”
“Oh, you’re right. Then… then… why is he so obedient to you? My brothers all say that Morris is cold and ruthless, but I always feel that he treats you differently.”
Yeon spoke her mind without reservation.
“Because his grandmother likes me, and I will be his sister in the future. Now understand why he treats me so well then?”
Vivian poked Yeon on her head and corrected her. “Also, in what way did you see him being obedient to me? You’re blind.”
“Ouch, it hurts…”
Yeon, whose head was poked, rubbed her head and muttered, “I see he treat you very well.”
“If you don’t have good eyes, go to see an eye doctor!”
Vivian, who sat up late last night, was very annoyed when she saw that it was only five o’clock in the morning.
She lifted the thin quilt on her body, got up, and walked out.
The Village Chief’s family was cooking in the kitchen. Vivian ran over to greet them one by one before brushing her teeth and washing her face.
After all the things were done, it was still early. Vivian then walked out of the courtyard.
All of a sudden, she caught sight of the clouds in the air and the mist over the pond. The flowers and plants on the road sides were stained with crystal clear water droplets, which rolled down when breeze blew lightly.
With green mountains and clean waters, birds’ twitters and flowers’ fragrance, and drifted clouds and mist, it looked like a fairyland.
Vivian enjoyed the beautiful scenery very much. She walked through the village in her slippers, enjoying a different morning.
South to the old Village Chief’s house, There was a grain-sunning ground at the south end of the village. Very old stone mills were lying on the ground.
Just as Vivian was feeling curious, a lame man in tattered clothes, wearing a mask on his face, walked past her with a walking stick.
Vivian was attracted by his strange outfit. When she looked sideways at the hunchbacked masked man, he was also looking at her.
A bronze mask covered his face from over his mouth to his forehead, revealing a pair of eyes. No one could see his true face.
“Good morning, mister… Ah!”
Just as Vivian was staring at the masked man, Yeon suddenly appeared and greeted him warmly.
But when the mask man looked back at Yeon, she was shocked.
The man’s cold eyes seemed to be expressionless, but they gave people a sense of gloom and horror, as if there were many things hidden in him.
Yeon Shaw, who was scared, ran to Vivian and grabbed her. She didn’t dare to speak for quite some time.
It wasn’t until the staggering person walked away with the walking stick in his hand that she patted her chest and sighed. “Oh, I was scared to death. How could there be such a person in the Easton Lane Valley?”
“Why are you following me?”
Vivian glanced at Yeon coldly and asked.
“He he, I was thinking about meeting my Prince Charming when I was with you. By the way, you said yesterday, buy one get one free. You still owe me another chance.”
Yeon, who was upright, said directly.
Seeing that she was so simple and naive, she was not tired of her.
“Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to arrange it.”
Vivian replied.
The two strolled around before returning to the Village Chief’s house and having breakfast together.
In the morning, they went up the mountain again to carry the goods.
They were busy working all day.
Because the Easton Lane Valley was at the most outside ring of the mountain. Everything should be delivered to the Easton Lane Valley first before being transferred to other villages.
There were so many goods that it took three days to handle them all.
Vivian was extremely tired. Seeing she was very diligent and capable, Yeon praised her in all kinds of ways and diligently wiped her sweat and handed her water. She was very flattering.
This was seen by Quintel Shaw, Issac’s father, who was so angry. He glared at Yeon. “I’m your father. Why didn’t you treat me so well?”
He was jealous.
And he disliked Vivian even more.
He always felt that Issac was very kind to Vivian, and Yeon also liked her. This woman was not simple.
“Dad, Vivian is now my sister. Since she treats me well, of course I shall treat her well.” Vivian curled her lips at Quintel and replied.
“Am I not good to you?”
Quintel felt so hot that he kept fanning himself with a fan in his hand. He wiped the sweat off his forehead with a flick of his sleeve and questioned.
“I’m not saying that you are not good to me, but you must have a different relationship with your close friend.”
Yeon snorted and handed a bottle of mineral water to Quintel.
This made Quintel’s anger subsided a lot, but the next moment, he saw Yeon take another bottle of mineral water and walk toward Vivian. She also considerately opened the bottle cap for Vivian. “Come, Vivian, have some water.”
Vivian had been a little resistant to his excessive hospitality at first, but after a few days, she had got used to it.
Seeing this, Quintel was blue in the face.
But there was nothing he could do.
Vivian sat in a chair resting. Yeon sat next to her and asked, “Vivian? Ah, no, Sister Vivian, when can you ask my Prince Charming out again? I miss him so much.”
Vivian, who was drinking water, spat out the water in her mouth. Then she kept coughing. “Hawk…”
“Ah, what’s wrong with you?”
Yeon massaged her back and wiped her mouth with a towel. She asked with concern, “Why, you are choking?”
After coughing a few times, Vivian relaxed a little and said, “What’s there to miss him when you see him every day?”
“But…”
“Yeon Shaw, get over here!”
Quintel, who was standing by the side, was angry when he saw Yeon, who was spoiled by him, serving Vivian in front of him.
“Oh, Dad, you’re so annoying. I’m chatting with my good sister. Leave us along. Humph.”
