Female Novel
Chapter 2517
Vivian thought that if it were really a guest, they would go to a restaurant.
"Aunt Neile, why don't you let me deliver the lunch box today?" Vivian continued to reply with the helpof the translator. She felt like this guest of Luke's might be Gordan.
If it were him, why did Luke not say anything?
Could it be that he did not want her to be upset?
If it were Gordan, he must be bothering Luke at T Corporation because of her. In that case, she wouldbe the bad guy now.
Although Luke never said anything, Vivian did not want to trouble others because of her, so she wantedto find out.
"Ms. Vivian, the driver will send this. You don't have to do it," Aunt Neile said with a smile. Every timelunch was ready, Lliam would come and get it before sending it to T Corporation. There was no needfor her to deliver it.
"I have to see Mr. Crawford, and since the lunch boxes need to be delivered, let me go. It's convenientanyway since there's a driver." Vivian used the translator to tell Aunt Neile.
"In that case, okay. You can follow Lliam's car to T Corporation when he comes," Aunt Neile agreedwithout much hesitation.
"Okay." Vivian helped Aunt Neile wash the dishes. She just wanted to go and confirm her doubts.
However, if it were really Gordan, would she want to see him?
Was Gordan following Luke around to get her to come out?
Vivian felt uneasy at the thought of this.
She had been feeling uneasy ever since Gordan stopped standing in front of the entrance, but at thesame time, she felt relieved. Fortunately, he gave up, because if he had persisted, she would be thefirst to give in.
However, she did not feel any better now that she knew that he had been pestering Luke. Was shereally going to give him another chance to hurt her?
Vivian was in a dilemma.
After washing the vegetables, Aunt Neile started grilling the steak.
"You're making steak today?" Vivian saw her cooking it and asked curiously.
“Yup. Mr. Crawford said that the guest likes steak, so he asked me to prepare some, but making steakis not my forte," Aunt Neile said resignedly as she had no choice but to obey Luke's orders.
"I'm good at making steak. Let me do it," said Vivian. Gordan liked eating steak too. She even enrolledin a cooking class to have a Michelin chef teach her how to cook steak.
She knew Gordan's taste as well, but he was grossed out by her steak before he even took a bite. Hetreated her cooking like how he treated her.
"Really?" Aunt Neile was surprised to hear her say that as she had been struggling to cook steakbefore this.
She had even considered getting steak from a five-star restaurant and pretending she was the one whoprepared it.
"Have you forgotten where I came from? Let me do it, Aunt Neile." Vivian took the pan from AuntNeile's hands and started grilling the steak.
Although Gordan liked steak, she still could not confirm that the guest was him, so she askeddeliberately, "By the way, what sauce should I use for the steak? Tomato sauce? I remember that Lucalikes tomatoes a lot."
"No. Mr. Crawford says that the guest hates tomato sauce. Any sauce is fine, as long as it's nottomato," Aunt Neile quickly said. Luke had made his instructions clear.
"I see... Alright." Vivian smiled bitterly. The guest did not eat tomatoes.
It was Gordan.
He hated tomatoes the most. No matter what dish it was, he never liked tomatoes.
Even if it were a fancy dish with tomatoes as a decoration, as long as the tomato had been cut open,he would not eat it as he believed that the smell of the tomatoes would affect the taste of the dish.
She knew him very well, so she asked Aunt Neile.
She did not expect to have confirmed it before she even got to T Corporation.
Vivian finished making the steak as well as the sauce. She left the rest to Aunt Neile.
"Aunt Neile, I'm not in a rush to see Mr. Crawford, so I'll just wait for him to come back. I won't be goingto T Corporation with the driver," said Vivian.
'Alright." Aunt Neile did not think much of her sudden change of mind.
"You can finish the rest, I'll go upstairs. No need to call me down for lunch. I'm not hungry." Viviansmiled faintly before leaving the kitchen.
She had to calm herself down after confirming that it was Gordan.
Vivian dragged her tired body to her bedroom and closed the door before burying herself under thecovers.
"What should I do.." she muttered. She knew that they would not get back together even if she met upwith him to talk.
Gordan did not like her at all.
The reason why he was like this was that her act of kindness had hurt his ego.
Therefore, even if they met up and talked, she would get hurt in the end and would need a longer timeto forget him.
That was why Vivian avoided seeing him.
She did not expect that her cowardly behavior would bring such great trouble to Luke.
Luke was a good person, but she had put him in a dangerous position before. Hence, Vivian did notwant him to suffer from Gordan's torment.
“Gordan, when will you let me go..." Tears fell from Vivian's eyes.
In the evening.
Luca returned to the mansion first as Luke had to work overtime.
As soon as she walked into the living room, Aunt Neile came to her with an anxious look on her face."Ms. Craw, you're back. Why don't you go upstairs and see what's going on with Ms. Vivian?"
"What's wrong with Vivian?" Luca wondered.
"After Ms. Vivian helped make lunch, she went to her room to rest and said that she wasn't hungry, soshe skipped lunch. She didn't come down until three o'clock, so I went up to knock on her door, but Ms.Vivian didn't open the door for me. She just said that she was tired and asked me to not disturb her.She hasn't eaten or drunk anything since this afternoon. I'm worried that something has happened toher, but I don't dare to open the door..." Aunt Neile said.novelbin
"I'll go have a look." Luca touched the three children's heads and said, "You three go read. I'll go checkon Ms. Vivian."
"Ms. Luca, I'll come too." Tommy raised his hand as he also heard what Aunt Neile said just now.
He wanted to knock on the door, but Aunt Neile said not to disturb Vivian as she was resting, so he didnot bother her.
"Good boy, I'm going to talk to her for a while. You go read your book, okay?" Luca could roughly guesswhy Vivian was like this.
It must be because of Gordan.
In order to make Vivian open up, she would have to bring up Gordan, but she was afraid that thechildren would be confused if they heard her. She did not want to let them know about the troubles ofthe adult world.
They had to keep their innocence.
"Alright." Tommy listened to her and sat back down on the couch to read.
After changing her shoes and taking off her coat and scarf, Luca headed upstairs.
Knock, knock. "Vivian, are you there?" she said while knocking on the door of the guest room.
