Rachel regretted getting all worked up and going ballistic. Thinking that Vivian did it out of concern for her, Rachel decided to explain herself.
“It’s okay. I just wanted to take good care of you. Since it makes you feel uncomfortable, I’ll stop and just let things be.”
Vivian was not bothered by what happened. She stopped convincing Rachel since the latter had no intention of heeding her advice.
Regardless of what Rachel had to say, Vivian listened indifferently.
“OK.” Not knowing what to say in response, Rachel simply nodded.
The long-distance travel was not very comfortable, resulting in Vivian getting pins and needles.
When she got off the car, she immediately moved her body to relax her muscles.
Subsequently, she assisted Rachel off the car.
“Sir, can you wait for us for thirty minutes? I’ll pay you accordingly.” Commuting in a rural area was rather inconvenient. Thus, Vivian figured it was best to get the same driver to wait for them.
“Sure, I’ll be here. You go ahead and do what you need to do.” Upon hearing he would be getting paid for waiting, the driver agreed gleefully without any complaints.
Vivian acknowledged with a nod and went ahead with Rachel.
“Where do you want these placed?” Those were Rachel’s clothes, some medicines bought from the hospital, and basic amenities.
Vivian sought her opinion so that she knew where to look for them later on.
“Just leave them on the table.”
It took Vivian twenty minutes to unpack and arrange everything.
Turning to Rachel, she said, “I’ll take my leave now. Call me if you need me.”
Before leaving, Vivian left her contact details on the table for Rachel.
“Vivian…”
Vivian felt bad for making the driver wait for her for more than half an hour.
“Sorry, Sir, I took longer than expected.”
“That’s fine. Shall we go now?”
“Yes, please.”
During the journey back, Vivian got bored and started browsing entertainment news on her phone.
Lexi, whom the tabloids reported as Finnick’s most recent girlfriend, finally became popular. Although she relied on a man to get famous, she does have some real capabilities.
I’m sure she’s still eyeing on Finnick.
It’s okay. Those who leave aren’t good enough, anyways. I have faith in my own man.
Right then, Vivian noticed a text message from Finnick.
Honey.
Yes?
What time are you coming home?
Soon.
As they were texting, she had arrived at Finnick’s company.
He wanted her to accompany him to lunch and she obliged.
After lunch, Vivian had her own plans.
“How was it?” Finnick asked.
Vivian knew he was asking about Rachel even though he did not make it clear.
“It’s all right. Nothing serious. Her illness was quite peculiar, but it came and went.” Vivian continued eating whereas Finnick just nodded as a response.
There are many unusual happenings on earth, we don’t have to answer each one in detail.
“Where are you heading to next?” As soon as they finished eating, Finnick inquired about Vivian’s plans.
“I’m going to Ben’s place to pick Little Pumpkin up.”
It’s time to put a stop to it. Three days should be sufficient for them to work on their relationship.
Things may go the opposite direction if little pumpkin continues staying there.
Perhaps absence makes the heart grow fonder and it can help Benedict sort out his feelings better.
“All right, you go ahead. Be careful.”
Finnick had a meeting in the afternoon and could not accompany Vivian.
“Okay, I’m not a toddler anymore.” Chuckling, Vivian rolled her eyes at him and then hailed a cab.
Finnick watched her as she got into the cab safely before returning to the office.
Vivian had no idea whether Benedict was at home. Anyways, I can always pick little pumpkin up first then only notify Ben.
