You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 391

In the Ye family residence

Julie sat on the balcony to have afternoon tea. She had just read the top search news.

The news of Nina's drowning dropped from first place to the third, but was still eye-catching.

Julie didn't care about the comments below the post. She only cared whether John would fulfill his promise to marry her daughter.

She called Vivian and asked her to come back early from the Ye Group to discuss important matters.

Vivian studied hard while working in the Ye Group. She was polite to everyone around her, thus earning her a good reputation. Even Henry had praised her many times in front of Adrian.

"Henry, I'd like to ask for a leave for the rest of the afternoon. I am needed at home." Vivian was now Henry's assistant. She never sought any special privileges, and she sought Henry's approval before doing anything.

Henry just nodded and let her go.

She ran into Adrian as she walked out of the office.

"Mr. Song, are you waiting for Henry to get off work again?" It was not the first time that Vivian saw Adrian waiting for Henry to get off work. Adrian did it almost every day.

Vivian couldn't help thinking, 'This is confusing.

If Adrian were a woman, I can understand why.

He is a man, though.'

"You already know it. Why do you still ask me?" Adrian didn't like Vivian, especially after Henry praised her over and over in front of him.

Vivian smiled politely. "I know you and Henry have a good relationship, but shouldn't you be closer to Mr. Shi? After all, you knew him first"

"Hmm," Adrian said perfunctorily and walked past her.

Vivian stared at Adrian's departing back, and her expression became more thoughtful.

She felt that the relationship between the two men were unusual.

However, she couldn't exactly pinpoint what was odd about it.

Her mother started calling again, so Vivian hurried back. She thought that something serious had happened, but it turned out that her mother wanted to berate her.

"Vivian, what's wrong with you? Aren't you worried about your marriage at all? I traded my blood for it." Julie pointed at the top search on the screen of her mobile phone. "Nina has been dead for three days, but Mr. Shi still hasn't come to talk about your marriage. You didn't contact him at all. Do you really want to make me angry?"

"Mom!" Vivian said impatiently. "You don't know what's happening, so don't talk nonsense. I have my own plan."

She was an impatient person, but her mother was even more so. "What can you do? Look at what you have done. You have set up such an elaborate trap, but you haven't caught anything yet.

You should have listened to me at the beginning. You should have had sex with Mr. Shi to make Nina uncomfortable so that she would leave. Then, you can be his woman. It's so simple. Why do you have to make it so complicated?"

Every time Vivian heard her one of her mother's bad ideas, she would feel sick. She wouldn't resort to such a dirty trick—she didn't want others to find fault with her and speak ill of her when her back was turned.

However, her plan wouldn't succeed without her mother's help. Win or lose, they were in the same boat. They shouldn't butt heads or go against each other.

"Mom, let me explain it to you first." Vivian stood behind her mother and gently massaged her shoulders.

People would naturally be in a good mood as long as they felt comfortable.
