Chapter 15
After many years of graduation, everyone had achieved something. Now that they got together, comparisons must be indispensable.
She used to be a top student, but now she was like this, which was one of the reasons why she resisted class reunions.
Lainey asked on the phone, “Vivienne, are you listening?”
“Well.” Vivienne returned to her senses, “I’m listening, the class reunion is on Friday, I’ll go if I have time on Friday.”
Lainey also knew Vivienne’s concerns, so she didn’t say much, just told her that.
After hanging up the phone, Vivienne stood on the balcony in a daze, not knowing when Damien was standing behind her.
Damien handed her a cup, of milk, “It can help you sleep well.”
“Thank you.” Vivienne took the milk absent–minded.
With one hand in his pocket, Damien looked at her and asked, “Is there something on your mind?”
Vivienne hesitated and said, “Lainey called just now. There is a class reunion next week. Our teacher will be there. He is very kind to me..”
Damien understood, “You don’t want to go, but you have to go, so it’s hard.”
Vivienne nodded.
Damien said, “Just follow your heart. It’s too late, go to bed early.”
It was not convenient for Damien to express his views on this matter. He didn’t know Vivienne’s past after all.
Also, Vivienne couldn’t say that her ex–boyfriend would attend the class reunion, so she could only hold back this matter.
“Well, you too, good night.”
The two said goodnight to each other and went back to their rooms. Vivienne locked the door, and they lived together peacefully overnight. The previous worries were unnecessary.
Early the next morning, Vivienne got up to make breakfast. After Damien had breakfast, he went to work. She cleaned at home, finished the housework, and started doing handwork.
She didn’t go out to the stall last night, so she lost a lot in earnings. Today, she would make more accessories and go out to the stall earlier to get back what she hadn’t earned yesterday.
Damien was a busy man. When he entered the company, there were various meetings and business talks at night.
It was impossible for him to go back to dinner every day. If there was a social occasion, he would send a message to Vivienne and tell her to have dinner herself.
Vivienne was also very busy, she did handicrafts during the day and went to the night market at five pm.
But most of the time, she came back from the stall, and Damien might not come back yet.
Damien often came back very late at night, smelling of alcohol.
Then Vivienne would cook something warm the next day to ease his hangover, and she prepared all kinds of medicine to ease the hangover as well.
Watching Damien come back drunk, Vivienne realized that it was
really not easy for Damien to work hard in a big city.
If a woman didn’t have the ability to support a family financially, she could still choose to be a great housewife, but a man was hard to make this choice, they have to support their family and be the breadwinner.
In the midst of being busy, the day of the class reunion finally arrived.
Lainey called Vivienne early in the morning.
The class reunion started at six o’clock in the evening, and Vivienne was nervous at home all day, and at five o’clock, she changed into a plain dress and put on light makeup.
There were old acquaintances at the class reunion, and Vivienne naturally couldn’t be too sloppy.
At 5:30, Lainey drove to pick up Vivienne at the Willow Garden.
Only then did Lainey know that Vivienne had moved to a new house and lived with Damien?
“Willow Garden, I checked. A house here costs at least six zeros.” Lainey said, “It’s just a pity. As far as your husband’s income is concerned, it will take forty or fifty years to pay for it without food or drink.”
Vivienne put on her seat belt and said, “Washington DC is
expensive. There are too many people who can’t afford a house. Renting a house is also very good. It’s not easy for him. He doesn’t come back until late at night after socializing every day. Lainey, don’t say that in the future. Especially don’t say that in front of him.”
“Okay, let’s not talk about it, Vivi, you should pay more attention.
He works in such a big company, and he is handsome, he must be liked by girls.” Lainey reminded, “If he really comes back late every day, you should be careful of that.”
Vivienne smiled and said, “He won’t cheat me, he gives me all his salary, and he is really busy.”
“That’s great then! He really is a good man huh.”
Soon, the two arrived at the Moon Restaurant, where the classmates had dinner together.
After getting off the car, Vivienne swallowed her saliva when she saw the magnificent decoration of Moon Restaurant, and asked, “Lainey, we are going to dutch tonight, right?”
A meal here must be expensive.
Alas, she just made some money these days, and she was about
to lose it.
