Chapter 1014 He Was Waiting for Her


    "Vivian?" Gordan instantly frowned when he heard that name. "Why can''t she leave me alone?"


    Bianca and Vivian were bringing dinner out of the kitchen when they heard what Gordan said.


    Vivian''s smile froze on her face. She knew that Gordan did not like her, but her heart ached when she


    had to hear him say that.


    She seemed dejected as she ced the dishes on the table.


    Bianca looked at the two and sighed. "Gordan, I''ve invited Vivian here for dinner."


    Gordan might not be happy, but he dared not offend Bianca. After all, she was the woman he respected


    the most.


    He looked at the dishes that Vivian brought out and said mockingly, "Can that be eaten? Did you drug


    the food?"


    Vivian shook her head and exined, "I didn''t."


    Ray had drugged Gordan in Moscow because he wanted to help his elder sister hasten her rtionship


    with Gordan.


    Even after Gordan was drugged, he locked himself in the room. From then on, he thought that Vivian


    had drugged him.


    Vivian tried to exin her innocence to him, but it was no use. Now that he mentioned it, it made her


    feel terrible.N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    "I was the cook for all the dishes, Gordan. Vivian was only helping. Don''t be so paranoid, Gordan."


    Bianca looked at the two people and hoped that she could ease the tension.


    She did not expect that reaction from Gordan when he found out that Vivian was in the kitchen.


    "I didn''t even touch the finished dish. You... don''t have to worry," Vivian said. She did not want Bianca''s


    efforts to be wasted.


    Gordan felt even more annoyed looking at her.


    Tommy ran over and tugged Gordan''s pants. “Uncle Gordan, I don''t want you to be so nasty to Aunt


    Vivian."


    Gordan was speechless. Why did that child like Vivian when she was so ugly?


    He thought that it was quite embarrassing to be reprimanded by a child.


    Luke did not speak up for Gordan. Instead, he said, "Don''t just stand there. Let''s eat."


    Tommy let go of Gordan''s pants and ran upstairs. "1''11 get Lanie and Rainie down for dinner!"


    Bianca nodded. "I''ll bring the rest of the dishes out of the kitchen."


    Vivian felt a little awkward. "I''ll help," she said.


    The awkwardness did not go away at the dining table. The people ate their meals in total silence.


    Lanie and Rainie could sense the tension. They quickly finished their food and said that they had to go


    upstairs to finish their homework.


    Only Tommy was eating happily.


    Bianca took a napkin and wiped off a bit of mashed potato on his chin. "You should eat slower. It''s


    better for your digestion."


    "Okay, Mommy." Tommy shed a bright smile at Bianca and continued eating.


    After dinner, Gordan immediately went to Luke''s study. He said he wanted to continue the investigation.


    Vivian helped Bianca clean up and said that she wanted to leave first.


    "Aren''t you waiting for Gordan?" Bianca asked.


    "No. I''m feeling a little tired, and I want to go back and rest. I think he''ll be here for quite some time,"


    Vivian said. She was already satisfied that she got to eat dinner with Gordan.


    Bianca could see that she was indeed tired. She took out several shopping bags from the car boot.


    Those were all Vivian''s purchases.


    "I''ll get you a cab," she said.


    "Thank you, Sis." Vivian was touched.


    She booked a cab for Vivian and told the driver Vivian''s destination. After watching the car leave,


    Bianca returned to the house.


    Gordan happened to being down the stairs. He did not see Vivian in the living room. He sneaked


    into the kitchen to


    take a peek and did not see her there either.


    He saw Biancaing in through the door. "Where''s she?" He asked with a smile.


    Bianca was quite angry about Gordan''s behavior earlier. " Who?" She pretended not to know who


    Gordan was referring to.


    "Ms. in-Face." Gordan could tell that Bianca was not in a good mood.


    "Do you mean Vivian? She went back to the hotel first because she didn''t want to disturb you," Bianca


    replied brusquely. If Gordan were not Luke''s good friend and was not here to help them, she would


    have rolled her eyes at him instead.


    Gordan frowned. Vivian was not familiar with A City. How did she leave?


    He wanted to ask that, but soon realized that Bianca might have helped her book a cab and told the


    driver the destination. He felt a little more at ease after that.


    He went into the kitchen, poured himself a ss of water, and took a sip. Then, he realized that


    something was not right. Why was he worried about Vivian?


    Even if she lost her way and could not speak English well, who would bother taking advantage of her?


    Bianca was in the living room ying with Tommy. She did not know what Gordan was thinking in the


    kitchen.


    Gordan left at about eleven o''clock.


    After coaxing her children to sleep, she returned to her bedroom. Luke was leaning on the headboard


    reading some documents.


    "Are you still busy?" She lifted the nket, sat down next to Luke, and nced at the document


    curiously. It was rted to the uing T Corporation shareholders'' meeting.


    She remembered that she had T Corporation shares too, which meant that she would have to attend


    the meeting.


    She felt quite troubled when she remembered that such meetings were full of quibbles and arguments.


    She had taken the reins of T Corporation when Luke had gone missing, and she had chaired the


    annual shareholders'' meeting. Old Master Crawford had never shown up, so she had to face the


    shareholders'' questions herself.


    She had used her dividends to appease the shareholders that wanted to topple her, which meant that


    Luke got to keep his position when he got back.


    "I was just browsing because I was free." Luke closed the folder and hugged her. He was reading the


    documents because he was waiting for her.


    Bianca leaned on his chest. She could tell the implications in his words.


    "Did Gordan find anything?" She asked.


    "No leads yet," Luke replied to her while smoothening the pillows. The culprit had not left many clues to


    begin with, so the investigation process was quite difficult.


    "It''s alreadyte. Shall we rest?" He draped his arm over her shoulder.


    Bianca blushed a little. She nodded, slowlyid down, and their fingers intertwined.


    Meanwhile, Gordan had returned to the hotel. He stood outside the door of his suite, thought for a


    while, and went into his room.


    On his way back, he had the impulse to book a four-star hotel and stay there for the rest of his trip.


    Even so, he managed to ovee that impulse.


    Vivian immediately stood up and ced her ear next to her room door when she heard the door open.


    She had been waiting for Gordan''s return.


    Gordan nced at Vivian''s room, then looked away coldly, went back to his room, and closed the door.
