She knew that Sister Celine would blame her for her behaviour and think that she was being irrational.
However, she would always have no other choice when Chow was around.
"Let's go to have dinner in the dining room. Aunt Blaine should be done cooking soon."
Chow's voice came from behind Vivian, stopping her from leaving once more.
"Why? Chow, didn't you say you wanted to eat with me?" Celine asked, her voice suddenly filled with grievance.
Chow lowered his head and smiled at her. This was the kind of gentleness that Vivian had never experienced from him before.
"It's going to rain soon, love. Let's have a taste of Aunt Blaine's cooking today. You can stay after dinner, right?"
If Celine was going to stay tonight, that meant...
Vivian clenched her fists and dug her nails painfully into her palms.
Celine, who was standing next to Chow, blushed and nodded profusely at him.
However, when Chow raised his head to look at Vivian again, the tenderness in his eyes disappeared in an instant. "Hurry up and go. Come back down for dinner in ten minutes."
"Yes." Technically, she was just a guest staying with the Howard family, but she could only nod and obey his orders like a maid.
Turning away from the two people downstairs, Vivian involuntarily bit her lips.
How could she still secretly fall in love with him in a situation like this?
Not daring to stay with them any longer, Vivian ran upstairs and rushed into the room next to Chow's bedroom.
Their rooms had always been next to each other since the day she started staying with the family.
