Vivian was completely stunned, staring blankly at Charlie, unable to react for a moment.
"It’s too sweet!"
Charlie frowned, placing the coffee forcefully on the dressing table, "It's so sweet that it's disgusting. How could you buy this junk for Vivi to drink?"
The word 'Vivi' instantly thrilled Vivian.
His domineering tone, his doting words... so he cared about her that much...
Vivian disregarded the coffee spewed on her eyes and eyelashes by Charlie and was about to say something else. But she only saw Charlie's cold gaze fall on her face.
"If she can't even handle such a minor task, Luna, why don’t you fire her?"
Luna was taken aback and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Firth. This assistant is a newcomer and I haven't trained her well yet. I’ll take her to get trained immediately."
Vivian was anxious. She was still immersed in Charlie's doting on 'Vivi.' She couldn't wait to tell Charlie that she was the true Vivian, the woman he liked!
Luna wouldn't give her a chance. She dragged Vivian away until they were far from Charlie and Nancy. Then she released her.
"Vivian, what are you doing? Just yesterday I told you, Charlie dotes on Nancy a lot. How could you confront Nancy in front of him?"
"Luna!"
Vivian was unhappy, "Charlie likes and dotes on Vivian, not Nancy. She’s just hiding behind my name. As long as I tell Charlie that I am Vivian, Nancy will have to get the hell out!"
"I know."
Luna didn't argue. She calmly soothed Vivian, "But have you forgotten? You haven’t done that thing yet, and Nancy hasn't finished shooting the ad. Just hold on for three more days, and you'll be Mrs. Firth. You can do whatever you want to Nancy then."
