Both of them were so close to each other that a few strands of Vivian’s stray hair touched Finnick’s neck. Finnick circled his hands around her waist and whispered, “You look so gorgeous that I don’t even dare to take you out with me.”

Vivian was surprised to hear Finnick flirt with her given that he was a man of few words. She was speechless as she blushed unwittingly.

Finnick chuckled before wheeling both of them out of the villa and got into the car.

Once they settled in, the driver drove them towards the Norton family’s villa.

Along the journey, Vivian couldn’t help but feel nervous.

After all, she will see Fabian and Ashley later. Moreover, just the thought that there would be a lot of people at the party caused her to worry that she would embarrass herself.

Detecting the tension in her smile, Finnick seemed to have guessed what was going through her mind. He asked softly, “Are you nervous?”

“Yes,” Vivian admitted. “I’m worried about embarrassing you.”

“How can you embarrass me when you look so pretty?” Finnick let out a faint smile. “Have you attended a party like this before?”

“No.” To calm her nerves, Vivian began to talk more. “But, I did work as a waitress at such events during my university days to pay for my tuition. At that time, I was envious of all those girls dressed in beautiful gowns. I even wondered if I would ever get a chance to attend a party like that someday.”

Finnick chuckled in response. “So, I guess your dream has come true?”

“You can put it that way.” Vivian laughed along with him. “After work, I would practice the dance steps I saw the ladies performed discreetly. So that when I have the opportunity to attend a party of my own, I could dance just as elegantly…”

Suddenly, Vivian realized she had said something wrong and stopped abruptly. After which, she looked at Finnick anxiously.

Damn it. I was being careless.

I have forgotten that he is a cripple in front of others and can’t dance. What I did simply rubbed salt into his wounds.

In contrast to Vivian’s anxiety, Finnick was calm and there wasn’t the slightest change in his smile. He replied casually, “Is that so?”

Vivian no longer dared to say anything else and remained silent till they arrived at their destination.

Finnick slid out of the car before offering his hand to help Vivian out.

After carefully alighting, Vivian was astounded when she saw the villa in front of her.
