Both of them take a slow walk from their villa to the guardhouse. It takes them ten minutes to arrive at
the location. They can already hear the noise from far. As they walk closer, every word Vivian says gets
clearer.
“You better let me in. I’ve told you that I’m with Mr Rex. Why won’t you listen? Do you have any idea
who I am?” The grating voice of Vivian sounds extra unpleasant in a quiet night.
The security guard seems helpless, “I’m sorry Madam, I can’t let you in without registering your
information and contact. Please move your car. It is affecting the traffic here.”
“I said I know Rex. I know him! Are you deaf or something? Why can’t you understand simple human
language?” Vivian sounds very cranky and what she said doesn’t fit the first impression she created.
By the time Rex and Lily walk over, this is what they see. The management manager feels relief the
moment he sees them arrive. “Mr. Rex.”
Rex nods his head then glares at Vivian. The joyfulness and relax attitude has changed into a
disgusted and annoyed look. “What are you doing here?”
“I came looking for you…” Just when Vivian wants to continue her sentence, she sees Lily who stands
behind Rex. Her expressions freeze immediately.
Lily sees Vivian finally notice her existence. She then waves at her, “Hi, Ms. Vivian, I didn’t expect this
would be our third meeting at all.”
Before this, she didn’t understand what’s going on between Rex and Vivian, so she doesn’t dare to do
anything. Now that she knows what happened exactly, there’s no reason for her to be fear of Vivian.
Furthermore, Vivian hasn’t exactly been kind to her. It’ll be a good thing if she can get her to give up on
Rex and avoid getting herself involved in their life any further.
Vivian is a clever girl. She doesn’t question about Lily’s appearance here. She already has her answer
the moment she sees Lily. She changes her cranky attitude from before and takes a gentle approach,
“Rex, can I talk to you for a minute?”
The moment she changes her attitude, the security guard and the manager almost drop their jaws. Is
this even the same woman who screamed at them a few minutes ago?
She is so good at acting!
Rex doesn’t give her any reaction nor show any sympathy on her pitiful look, “No, I don’t want my wife
to have any hard feelings.”
W…Wife?!
Both Vivian and Lily get shocked the moment Rex calls Lily his wife.
What a bold move…
“I’ve waited for you for so long and you haven’t been contacting me, so I’m worried about you. It will
only take one minute, no, half-a-minute. Could you spare half-a-minute for me, please?” Vivian almost
loses control when she heard Rex calls Lily his wife but she keeps holding on.
“No.” Without hesitation, Rex rejects her.
“But you weren’t like this before…”
“Before this, I had some misunderstandings with my wife and we accidentally pulled you into our mess.
I apologize for that. But you have already known what happened exactly between me and Lily, so I
wouldn’t explain much anymore. Don’t ever come here again.”
Vivian feels like a big pile of cold water has been throw on her. She clenched her fist and glare at Lily
the moment she sees the security guard sneering at her, “It is because of her, isn’t it?”
She couldn’t hold it back anymore.
“She has nothing to do with how I feel about you but it is a fact that I don’t want any misunderstanding
between me and her anymore.” The explanation Rex gives hurts Vivian even more.
Normal people would have just given up and be gone. No one could bear this level of heartache Vivian
is having now.
But Vivian’s reaction has exceeded everyone’s expectation. She is calm, scarily calm. She glares at
Lily and asks, “You’ve left. Why did you come back?”
If she remains missing, remain non-existent, there wouldn’t be so many troubles now.
Rex notices the cruelty Vivian show under her calm face and he moves in front of Lily to create a
barrier between both of them. What Rex didn’t know is that this movement makes Vivian hurt even
more.
Lily holds Rex’s hand and shakes her head to tell him that she is fine. She moves forward and faces
Vivian directly, “Ms. Vivian, Rex and I were together since five years ago. Even though I wasn’t right at
his side during all these years, our relationship is still growing strong. I don’t expect you to understand
our relationship but I hope that you’d stay away from us.”
Lily has already been very polite to Vivian. Any other woman wouldn’t be this patient if another woman
tries to break their marriage.
The security guard and the manager feels like Lily is even more modest and decent than Vivian. This is
exactly how an official wife should react to the third wheel.
“Are you saying that I’m disturbing you?” Vivian laughs out loud oddly.
“Not only us. I hope you’ll stay away from our child too. Ms. Vivian, I know you like Rex a lot but please,
accept the fact that he is married and stop trying to tear my family apart.”
Child…
Yes, the child!
It’s like Vivian has found her last straw of her dignity, “Rex, you are with her because of the child, right?
It is all for the child, am I right?”
Rex notices her abnormal and lose-control reaction. He has got no patience to talk to her anymore,
“Drive away, now” Rex command coldly.
He has finally ordered her to leave the premise.
It is so hard to see him. Vivian knows once she leaves today, she will have to wait for a long time to see
him again.
Furthermore, they haven’t been really able to talk this time. She doesn’t want to leave empty-handed.
She quickly approaches Rex and grabs his arm, “Rex, please listen to me. Please. Even if you don’t
want to, think of your parents… Ahh!”
Before she could finish her sentence, Vivian exclaims. Rex has shaken off her hands.
Vivian has to take a few steps back to prevent falling onto the ground. She looks at Rex in an
unbelievable look. She doesn’t believe that Rex would do this to her.
But the next thing Rex do sends Vivian straight into hell- he sweeps off the part where she touches
him.
Is…he saying that she’s dirty?
Vivian feels like her heart has been pierced by needles. Did she annoy him that much? He couldn’t
stand her touch even if there are clothes in between?
Lily’s patience is slowly used up, “Ms. Vivian, please behave yourself.”
Rex doesn’t want to deal with Vivian anymore. He turns to the management office manager and says,
“Get a tow car. I’ll bear the cost. Also, if there’s anyone like her in the future, there’s no need to inform
me. Just do your job.”
The manager nods, “Yes, Mr. Rex. There will be no next time.”
After he is done, Rex holds Lily’s hand and walk back to their villa without turning back. What’s left at
the scene is only Vivian’s cry of despair.
Lily controls her urge to look back at Vivian. She asks Rex in a worrying tone, “Are you sure this is
alright? Should we talk some more sense into her?”
Vivian looks so scary now. It’s like she’s having some mental issues.
Rex understands her tricks after being ‘haunted’ by Vivian for so many years. He sees the whole
incident very coldly, “No need. The more concern we give, the more she is going to ask and that bad
cycle goes on.”
If it wasn’t for his parents who introduced Vivian to him, he wouldn't even take a look on that girl. Now
that Lily and Adair is back, he must get Vivian out of his life.
However, what Rex doesn’t expect is that his actions today has triggered a time bomb in the future.
