Vivian questions, 'What happened to the old man?'
Sebastian replies, 'He got paid, and now is in another city.'
Vivian paid the old man to create the drug scene in the club. She needed Jackson to converse with her.
However, Isabella being harassed was circumstantial, don't know whether to call it luck or destiny or a coincidence, but things are working in Vivian's favour. This is very useful for Vivian because that made her an even bigger hero in Jackson's eyes. The point is that gives her more access to the family because she saved their precious daughter.
You know what they say, 'Keep your friends close, but your enemies even closer,' that is exactly what she needs to do. This is perfect and everything is going according to plan.
'So, what is next?' Sebastian questions taking a sip of his coffee.
Vivian smiles, 'Now the game officially begins, Sebastian. We get closer to the Marshalls, and one by one I will snatch their happiness and tear the family apart. I will ensure they suffer and experience the pain I went through when they broke my world. The only difference is, I will strike harder.'
Sebastian nods and smiles towards her in an understanding manner.
Vivian clears her throat, 'Nicole will be coming home tomorrow and will be living here, however, no one can know. In front of the world, only two best friends live here, especially in front of the Marshalls.'
Sebastian nods in agreement, 'Don't worry, Viv, we have got everything under control. I will get the room ready for her,' he takes a sip before saying, 'Vivian, no disrespect, but are you sure she can be trusted?'
Vivian ponders for a second, 'Don't worry, Bash, she can, she knows everything that happened. She consoled me all these years.' Vivian proceeds to get up and walks to the kitchen. She looks back at Sebastian, 'If she cannot be trusted,' she pauses then continues, 'Then I will kill her too. If she is not beside us, then she is against us and I will end everyone and everything that is against us.' She walks in and places her mug down.
Truthfully, Sebastian fears Vivian, he fears that she has forgotten her limits. She kills with precision and never misses the target. Her hand never quivers when holding a gun and she doesn't flinch when the bullet fires and penetrates the enemy.
Vivian started training once she felt she was ready. She trained day and night, physically and emotionally, with and without weapons. Sebastian trained with her every day. She started off as a rookie, who could not aim a punch nor a kick, she had no stamina or strength. Nevertheless, her hunger for revenge fuelled her non-stop. He is aware that she can and will go to any extent to exact her revenge.
'It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be,' J.K Rowling. Weeks, months, and eventually years went by and she blossomed from a weak, defenceless, frail girl to a tough, independent, and merciless woman.
Sebastian is proud of her, extremely proud. However, he is afraid that her stubbornness for revenge might either get her hurt or worse- killed. He is stunned at her transformation and her ruthless killings. They became killers years ago. He could handle the burden of taking a life, but he is worried that she could not.
This is because he realises that Vivian is powered with the motive of vengeance and that is the purpose of her life. Furthermore, she has suppressed all her feelings including the guilt, it is all buried deep inside her.
However, once this revenge is complete, then all of the repressed emotions will explode out. Sebastian is afraid that this outburst might trigger issues she is not prepared to face.
