Chow reached out and grabbed her chin as he came closer. His voice was low and hoarse. "You don't want to be a side mistress? Then what are you aiming for? Mrs. Howard?"
...
Vivian shivered when Chow spat out the words 'Mrs. Howard' at her. She could feel her heart trembling as well.
She had always dreamed of holding the title of 'Mrs. Howard'.
However, she knew very well that she would never become his wife even if she traded her life for it.
That was why she never dared to dream of a future together with him.
However, Chow thought that Vivian was trembling because he'd exposed her innermost thoughts. His eyes turned red in an instant. "Are you trying to drive the real Mrs. Howard away and replace her, just like your mother did?"
As soon as Chow brought up her mother, Vivian's shoulders slumped as she quickly denied it. "N-No! I'd never!"
Chow scoffed and stood up after pushing her aside. "You had better not have any ideas of the sort. You're just a nobody in the Howard family! You're nothing but a toy. Stop thinking of the impossible!"
With that, Chow stomped towards the interconnecting door to his room.
Bang!
The door slammed shut behind Chow.
The door to Chow's heart had also slammed shut as well.
All that was left on the other side of the room was Vivian and her tearful face.
Because of that incident that day, the rapport that had initially been established between them both had crumbled to pieces.
For the past two days, Chow had been treating her as if she was invisible. Even when they ate at the same table, he never spared her a glance. He didn't even bother making life difficult for her anymore like he did in the past.
Even though Vivian was used to his indifferent attitude towards her, after experiencing a short moment of tenderness from Chow, his current demeanour was making her feel even more depressed than before.
...
She'd already had a taste of the potential sweetness between them and was greedy for more.
Vivian sighed and continued doing the dishes absent-mindedly.
She had just had breakfast. Chow had long left before breakfast without even sparing her a glance.
