CHAPTER 10
2072 Words
Who is the liar?
They have been dated each for so many years, but we don't know each other after not seeing each other for three years?
What a tacit understanding.
Cassius watched Vianna standing quietly on one side, turning a blind eye to the indifferent eyes in the hall, which was quite unexpected.
In his understanding, Vianna is a timid woman who keeps her own rules and is not generous in her behavior. She can be kept at home, but she cannot be brought out to walk beside him. In his subconscious mind, Vianna cannot cope with these interactions.
But what he didn't expect was that Vianna didn't have any stage fright tonight. She even shone brightly in this crowd, making it hard to ignore.
This is not an aura that can come out just by makeup.
It seems that he knew too little about Mrs King in the past.
As for Ivan, who was praised by everyone, in his eyes, a rub of mud at his feet was more eye-catching than him!
"I heard about Mr King. My condolences to Miss Vianna." Ivan said regretfully.
Vianna looked gloomy, smiled reluctantly, and said nothing.
Miss Vianna? Where did Miss Vianna come from here?
Cassius sneered, Mrs King is the only one here!
Looking around, all the young men present glanced over from time to time, with deep interest in their eyes, all focused on Vianna.
As a man, Cassius understands these looks very well.
It would be okay if Vianna was just an unmarried daughter, but now she is Mrs King, who will inherit tens of billions of inheritance. As long as they marries Vianna, the tens of billions of inheritance in Vianna's hands will also belong to them.
It can even be said that the career he has worked hard for many years has to be a boost for other men.
In other words, the green hat Vianna put on him was bought with his money!
But seeing that Vianna was not interested in these men, let it go.
"Vianna, this is the Ivan I mentioned to you before. He returned from studying a double degree abroad. He must have gained a lot of knowledge after so many years abroad. If you want to know anything, why not ask Ivan more? "
Ivan said humbly: "Auntie was joking, I only know a little bit about it."
"You still know a little bit about it, but we don't even know a little bit about it."
Several people were chatting and laughing, showing a harmonious appearance.
Vianna ignored her mother's frequent glances and stood aside to listen quietly without taking the initiative to speak.
"Miss Vianna, I have long admired your name..."
"Hello, Miss Vianna, I am..."
As Vianna and Ivan chatted happily, the young talents around them finally couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to chat with Vianna. Vianna dealt with it calmly and perfectly behaved like a person who had just died. The cold emotion that a woman with her husband should have.
Although she looked cold on the outside, Vianna was already bursting with excitement.
This guy named Ivan is so handsome!
Every move he made was so gentlemanly, and his eyes were too affectionate. Vianna simply didn't dare to look into these eyes, for fear that he would be unable to move his eyes away once he looked at them.
There were other young men who came to strike up a conversation. They were so stylish in their suits. Vianna was dazzled by the sight of them, clenching her hands in excitement, and even her breathing was messed up.
Heaven!
This place is simply paradise!
Countless handsome guys only have eyes for you, and every word they say to you surrounds you and comforts you. You are the center of everyone.
Vianna was light and airy, as if she was floating into the clouds when being held by someone, but she came back to her senses with a jolt in Vianna's mother smiling eyes.
"Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom."
Vianna smiled and escaped from the crowd, and went to the bathroom under the guidance of the waiter.
Vianna looked at the four pits and made sure that no one was there before she spoke excitedly.
Sure enough, there are too many temptations in this colorful world, and if you are not careful, you can get stuck in the quagmire.
Vianna was heartbroken, "These men are all so good, how do I choose? It's really nerve-wracking!"
However, outside the bathroom door, Cassius accidentally walked through the wall and sighed in despair when he looked at Vianna's excited and uncontrollable expression.
"Heaven is going to kill me!"
Before Cassius died, as a married woman, Vianna abided by her duties and was very self-aware.
She usually didn't watch the talent shows on TV, acting like she wasn't interested in all the men in the world and only loved Cassius.
If she hadn't been forced by life, how could she have hanged herself on a tree called Cassius in the past three years?
Now that Cassius is gone, she can observe beauty openly and appreciatively.
but..
She looked at herself in the mirror, her face flushed, and the raised corners of her mouth could not be smoothed out. If she went to the hall like this, something would probably be noticed.
She needed to calm down.
After leaving the bathroom, Vianna did not go back to the lobby, but chose to get some fresh air in the hotel garden.
She went to the bathroom and didn't come back for a long time. Her mother was anxious. Knowing that Vianna was hiding on purpose, she found an excuse to go out and look for someone.
As soon as she arrived in the corridor, she saw Vianna standing alone in the garden. Her mother thought for a while, returned to the hall, and whispered a few words in Ivan's ear.
Ivan was slightly stunned, but Vianna's mother urged him, "Hurry up."
Ivan knew that his aunt was creating an opportunity for him, so he put down his wine glass and walked toward the garden.
When I got to the garden, I saw Vianna standing there alone.
Autumn has just begun, and it rained heavily two days ago. Now the autumn wind is blowing at night, bringing a slight chill.
The street lights in the garden were dim, and he could only see people through the moonlight. In the dim shadow, Vianna's back became thinner and thinner.
In Ivan's impression, although Vianna was thin, she was not that thin.
It makes people feel distressed just by looking at it.
Ivan calmed down and walked towards Vianna pretending to meet by chance.
"Who's there?"
Hearing the sound, Vianna turned around in surprise and became even more surprised when she saw it was Ivan.
"Ms. Vianna? It turns out it's you," Ivan smiled, "I had no choice but to pretend to be meeting you for the first time in the lobby. Let's not be so polite in private. After all, we have known each other for so many years, Vianna, what do you think?"
Vianna's face froze, and her eyes were involuntarily attracted to Ivan's eyes. Even in such a dim environment, she could still see the sparkle in his eyes.
"Okay, Ivan."
The moonlight was very good tonight, and the two of them looked up in tacit understanding.
"It's a nice night today..."
"The moon is so full tonight..."
The two said in unison, but then shut up at the same time.
Vianna was embarrassed.
It was true that Ivan was handsome, but that was only for viewing from a distance. Appreciating the handsome guy from a distance made her feel happy. But now, walking alone with him at night, she felt quite unhappy, thinking to herself All I wanted to do was how to end the conversation with him as quickly as possible and find a decent excuse to get out of here quickly.
Vianna felt that her mentality was wrong. She guessed that she might have succumbed to Cassius's dominance for too long, and the majesty was shaken to her bones.
At the same time, I also hate my 'soft head' very much!
Cassius is dead, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
What happened to her and Ivan's relationship as ex-boyfriends? What's more, they are just chatting as ordinary friends now, and she is acting and sitting upright.
Even if your behavior is not upright, you still have to sit upright!
"I heard that you came back from studying a double degree abroad? What are your plans for coming back?"
Ivan said in a low voice, "My dad is not in good health and wants me to familiarize myself with the company's business as soon as possible so that I can take over the company."
Vianna nodded.
Her family has a good family background, and is on par with Cassius three years ago.
It's just that within the past three years, her family can no longer be compared with Cassius.
"After returning home, I heard about your husband. My condolences."
Ivan looked at Vianna, who had her face lowered, low in interest and obviously absent-minded. The gentle moonlight made her feel more and more. The girl who agreed to marry him three years ago had grown up, "Cassius... In these years, is he good to you?"
Vianna lowered her head and smiled, but that smile was extremely bitter in Ivan's eyes.
When Ivan first came abroad, Vianna had just married Cassius. He often asked people to inquire about Vianna. He knew that someone like Cassius could not make Vianna happy.
But he didn't believe what he heard.
He has always believed that Vianna had to break up with him and marry Cassius for the sake of her family. He would not be happy if he was forced to marry someone who he did not love and who did not love him at the same time.
But all he heard was that the couple was extremely loving.
Ivan didn't believe it. He wanted to hear the truth from Vianna himself.
"Yes, he treats me well."
Ivan frowned slightly, "Very good?"
He didn't believe it.
"Cassius is dead, and you still refuse to tell the truth in front of me?"
Vianna remained silent and looked at Ivan's hand. The bones were well-defined and quite beautiful.
But in Ivan's eyes, this silence was Vianna's silent admission that her life had not been good at all over the years.
If he had been tougher and taken Vianna away from the wedding scene, Vianna would not have spent these three years that were worse than death.
It's all his fault.
It was because he was too cowardly back then.
"Forget it, just don't mention it if you don't want to. Do you remember? We often chatted at nights like this back then, and you fell asleep every time we chatted."
How could Vianna know these past events? She could only vaguely say: "Yes, I remember."
"At that time, I often carried you home, and every time, you would wake up just as you were getting home. You, at that time, liked to pretend to be asleep." Ivan fell into memories, "At that time, you said, you wanted to They wanted a wedding at the beach, and then they got into a fight over where to go for their honeymoon..."
Vianna gradually fell into silence as she listened to him talk about the past.
Ivan's voice was pleasant, deep and magnetic. As she listened, Vianna's ears started to burn unconsciously. Listening to him seemed to be a pleasure.
Cassius looked at these two people and couldn't bear it anymore, his eyes were almost on fire.
If he hadn't died, he and Ivan would have exchanged identities today.
After a private meeting in front of him, is the next step going to be elopement?
No, he is already dead. It is justifiable for Vianna to remarry. Why elope?
He really didn't expect that these two people actually had such a loving relationship in the past. How dare he be the third party in the love affair?
So what if you become a third party?
"Vianna, let me tell you, you are mine, Cassius's wife. Even if I die, you should stay forever single for me!"
At least you'll be alone until I die clean!
