Chapter 17
Vivienne didn’t hide it, she knew Rachel’s intention, so she said what Rachel hoped she said, and took the opportunity to break Hendrix’s mind.
Vivienne was too frank, so Lainey had no chance to save it.
Hendrix glanced at Lainey and asked what was going on with his
eyes.
Prior to this, Lainey did not disclose the news of Vivienne’s marriage.
Lainey was also helpless, she only found out not long ago, and as an outsider, it was inconvenient for her to say.
The people at the table looked at each other in shock, the atmosphere was a bit strange, and they were all observing Hendrix’s reaction.
Hendrix held the wine glass tightly, feeling depressed, and took a sip of the wine.
Some broke the deadlock with a smile, “Vivienne, why didn’t you invite us to attend your wedding? If you have asked, we would all show up.”
This was just an afterthought, a polite way of speaking.
An old classmate who hadn’t been in touch after graduating from high school suddenly sent you a wedding invitation. They would just discuss behind you, but they wouldn’t show up. This was the reality.
And Vivienne was not in the classmate chat group at all, so saying this was obviously just to break the ice.
Vivienne deliberately said, “We haven’t had time to hold the
wedding. After the date is selected, I will invite everyone to my wedding.”
Vivienne didn’t plan to hold a wedding, so she just said this to gag the others.
Sure enough, as soon as Vivienne spoke, the smile on the face of the speaking classmate froze, and for the sake of his previous words, he smiled bitterly and said, “Congratulations! I will be there.” Then he stopped talking.
Lainey suppressed a smile, this was the Vivienne she knew, a girl could gently make others shut up.
Another female classmate said in an unfriendly tone, “Vivienne, why didn’t you bring your husband today. We are all curious about who this lucky man is.”
Rachel didn’t expect Vivienne had gotten married either. Hearing the news of her marriage, her defense against Vivienne immediately dissipated, and she looked at Vivienne with friendliness.
“Yeah, Vivienne, why not call him now and introduce him to us?” Rachel urged, “Do you want to see what Vivienne’s husband looks like?”
“Of course, I want to.”
“Vivienne, what does your husband do? My husband runs a fireworks factory, and I can introduce him to your husband.”
Vivienne thought that getting married would stop these people’s curiosity, but it caused more instead.
Vivienne said politely, “He works in the Skyreach Group. Uh, he has been too busy recently. I will bring him to meet you guys next
time.”
After the class reunion was over, no one would contact each other, let alone when the next meeting would be, this was just an excuse.
When they heard that Vivienne’s husband was working at Skyreach Group, Rachel glanced at Hendrix, who had an unhappy face, and said to Vivienne with a smile, “That’s a big company, which department is your husband in?”
“When we graduated, we also submitted our resumes to Skyreach Group. But we didn’t even pass the initial test.”
“Skyreach Group has very high requirements for recruiting, and the remuneration is ideal. It is a leading company. Numerous people are trying so hard to join.”
“Vivienne, your husband is amazing, what degree does he have?”
Vivienne really didn’t know, she only knew that Damien worked in Skyreach Group, as for his position, and department, she had no idea.
Vivienne said, “I haven’t asked him these.”
“You are husband and wife, why don’t you know, Vivienne, you are so petty, are you afraid that we will ask your husband for help?”
Some classmates said angrily, “Oh, come on, that’s Skyreach Group, and it has nothing to do with her husband. Her husband is not the president, but just an employee.”
“How much can the annual salary of a company’s employees be? Besides, her husband still works for others. However, Hendrix has owned his own law firm.”
These words awakened many people.
Yes, Vivienne only said that he worked in Skyreach Group, maybe he was just an unimportant employee.
Vivienne’s clothes did not cost more than 50 bucks, and the skin care products she used were from Clinique. So it could be seen that her life was not good, in another word, her husband must have no great skills.
Those who sit here were either their own bosses or well–married, and the car keys that the male students took out were all BMW- level.
The female students were also carrying the LV bags.
Thinking of the former school belle did not marry well, these people’s sense of superiority came up.
Vivienne knew what they meant, and said neither humble nor overbearing, “Happiness is not determined by money. As long as we love each other, the rest is not important.”
She just couldn’t bear these people looking down on Damien and belittling him.
Seeing that Vivienne was angry, some people laughed disdainfully, and some pretended not to hear and took a sip of wine.
Poor and lowly couples were sad about everything. How could the quality of marriages be the same between those who had money and those who had no money?
“Vivienne, don’t be angry, we’re just joking.” Rachel put her hand on Vivienne’s shoulder and acted as a peacemaker.
Just at this moment, Vivienne’s cell phone rang, and it was Damien who called.
Vivienne glanced at the caller ID, and before she could respond,
Rachel said loudly, “Your husband’s call, right? What a coincidence, invite him here.”
Vivienne, “He…”
Rachel took Vivienne’s phone and answered it, then said with a smile, “Is that Vivienne’s husband? I’m her classmate. We are at Moon Restaurant now. Vivienne wants you to come along. And everyone is waiting. They all want to meet the lucky man who married our school belle.”
