Mia asked doubtfully, prolonging the last word, “Is that true?”
Seraphina took a deep breath and pushed Mia. “Of course. As simple as that!
“Well, I didn’t know you like gossiping. I prefer you to be indifferent and irritable. Go take a shower. I
want to take one after you!”
“This is a sign of guilt!” Mia waved her hand and said, “Forget it. I don’t want to argue with kids!”
So Mia turned around and went to take a bath.
Seraphina felt speechless.
Seraphina breathed a sigh of relief after the crisis was finally over. It reminded her that she had to be
more careful not to get caught when Dashiell was still there.
Thinking about Dashiell, Seraphina hurriedly fished out her phone from her pocket. She saw a
message sent from Dashiell as expected: [1808.]
Apparently, it was Dashiell’s room number.
Seraphina couldn’t help grinning. She replied to him with an emoji signaling that she had received the
message and began to clean the table.
After finishing it, she found all the clothes she needed later. Mia opened the bathroom door, rubbed her
wet hair, and came out of the bathroom. “I’m finished. Go take a shower.”
Seraphina replied, “Okay. When she walked to the bathroom door, something flashed. through her
mind. “You must be tired. Don’t wait for me. Go to sleep.”
Mia said while drying her hair with a towel, “Who says I’m waiting for you? I don’t need. you to warm
my bed!”
Hearing this, Seraphina felt speechless..
It was almost twelve o’clock and Vivian was still awake.
Although Vivian was already lying in bed, her eyes were wide open and her mind wast full of what Mike
said earlier.
Vivian murmured, “Tonight, after tonight…
“Why does time pass by so slowly tonight? If only the sun was out and there was no need to make a
decision. How wonderful it would be!”

Chapter 73
It was a long night. If she missed this last opportunity, would she have another chance of a promising
future?
Vivian couldn’t fall asleep so she picked up her phone beside the pillow. The screen lit up and there
was nothing from Mike, not even a message.
Mike was always composed and he also knew her very well. He completely took advantage of her
weakness and knew exactly what she wanted. He knew all he needed to do was wait for her to throw
herself into his arms.
Vivian knew that there was an abyss ahead but she couldn’t resist the temptation to jump into it.
After hesitating for a long time. Vivian called Julian.
After quite a long time. Julian finally picked up the phone. He mumbled, “Vivian, what’s going on?”
Vivian bit her lip and whispered. I… I can’t fall asleep.
Julian immediately asked with concern. “What is wrong? Do you feel okay? Is the baby. giving you a
hard?”
“Well, it’s not like that. I just can’t fall asleep. Maybe… I just miss you too much.” In a soft voice, Vivian
tried to save herself. Joseph, can you come here?”
Julian quickly replied, “Okay, I’ll be there with you after finishing my work here.” That was what he
always said to her.
But because he answered it too fast, his words seemed a bit insincere and totally. perfunctory.
Vivian was a little upset. “When will it be? I’ll be too late when you’re finished! Can’t you just come over
here right now? I mean now! How long will it take to book a plane ticket? It’s only a two-hour flight.
Can’t you just come here and stay with me?”
Julian said, “Vivian, stop it! It’s not that you don’t know what’s going on back here. Everything is back to
normal and it will be a comeback to us soon. The factory still has a lot of orders but we are only resting
on our past laurels. We cannot survive without developing new products. By the way, did you find any
talent over there?” His mind was stuffed with businesses and profits. Speaking of which, he was
reminded of the matter of recruiting talents.
“No!” Vivian said angrily in a fit of temper, “All you’re thinking about is recruiting talents. I’m not fine!
How can I help you find them? Do you think it is an easy task?”
Julian replied patiently, “I know it’s tough. That’s why they’re talents. What we need to

do now is recruit excellent perfumers. If we fail to do that, we will be in a crisis!”
Vivian said, “Julian! What else do you have in mind besides talents and businesses? Don’t you care if I
am doing okay here? You know that Seraphina is also here but you didn’t ask me anything about it. Do
you have any idea how embarrassed I was at the perfumery conference today? I was the one who was
in a crisis today!”
Vivian exploded at this moment with all the pent-up grievances. She had been upset all day. Seeing
that Julian didn’t care about her at all and talked to her only about business. she was more upset.
Julian talked like there was only business between Vivian and him, nothing else!
Julian used to be romantic. He gave Vivian delightful surprises every now and then and followed Vivian
to all kinds of events. He flew all the way just to give her a kiss. But now he didn’t even care to make a
call.
After being shouted at, Julian was silent for a while. “The perfumery conference? What went wrong?
Why were you embarrassed? What did Seraphina do to you?”
Vivian said, “Do you still care about me?”
Vivian sat up and covered half of her face with one hand. She sobbed in a low voice, Julian, do you still
remember what you promised me?”
Julian couldn’t figure out what Vivian meant for a while. “What?”
Vivian said, “You’ve forgotten everything you promised me, haven’t you? Sure enough. you don’t care
about me at all. Men are all just talkers. You fooled me and I was stu pid enough to think you really
meant it!”
Julian promised Vivian that she could be a happy housewife without any hardships. resting in the hall of
honor. There were all his exact words. But now when being asked about them, he sounded confused.
How could he deliver on his promises if he didn’t even remember them?
Julian didn’t understand what she was talking about at all. “No, Vivian. I… Vivian completely lost faith in
his promises.
Vivian took a deep breath and looked much more indifferent. I’m tired. I’m going to sleep now.”
“Vivian, I know you’re upset. But please understand that everything’s different now. In the past, there
was no need for me to worry about new products but now we have to depend on ourselves. After a
pause, he muttered, “In fact, if you can develop some new products…”

“So, it’s
my fault?!” Clenching the quilt tightly, Vivian became angry. “It’s useless to blame me for not being as
good as Seraphina. And thank you for your concern, Mr. Brown!”
Knowing that he had said something wrong, Julian quickly explained, “No, Vivian. That’s not what I
mean!”
Vivian said, “Julian, since you think she’s better, go find her!”
After saying that, Vivian hung up the phone angrily!
