Vivian took a deep breath, fidgeting with her fingers. "You said... you would marry me." "Yeah." Darren didn't deny it. He put out his cigarette and said calmly, "I did say that."

"You also said you would take care of me and give me everything I wanted," Vivian steadied herself as she continued. Darren smiled slightly. "I've done that over those years, haven't I?"

her

Vivian instinctively nodded. Yes. When she wanted to study abroad, he made it happen. When she wanted to enter the entertainment industry, he paved the way, showering her with resources. When she wanted to be his wife, he ignored his grandfather's objections and got engaged to He was almost too good to her, giving her whatever she asked for. But she knew there was always a reason behind it.

Darren grew a bit impatient when she didn't respond.

His fingers clicked on the table. He asked, "I remember there were conditions to all this, right?"

Vivian's

eyes

darkened. "You said I had to be sensible."

ic," Darren said.

"Be speciffened a bit. "I'm not permitted to become involved in every aspect of your life."

Her face

"Seems like you haven't forgotten that." Darren seemed satisfied with her answer. "So, did you do something wrong today?"

He was referring to her asking about his relationship with Natalie.

Vivian felt wronged. "I'm about to be your wife. But I can't even ask when you show up. with another woman? Darren, don't you see my feelings for you after all these years, even if you accepted to be with me because I saved you in the first place?" Darren's eyes turned cold, looking at her without smiling. "Are you pushing your luck?"

Five years ago, when he regained his vision, he learned that she had saved him and asked her what reward she wanted. She said she only wanted to be his wife.

Darren brought up the past, chuckling coldly. "I agreed to your request and asked your Chapter &T

to be sure about what you wanted. I promised to make you become Mrs. Luther, but you couldn't expect the to love you. I granted you fame and fortune as you have requested over the years. And now you want to talk about love?" Vivian smiled bitterly. "You know very well those weren't what I really wanted. The only thing I ever wanted was you. Everyone envied her relationship with Darren, but only. she knew it was more like a one-woman show

In the past t five years, he never actively reached out to her, not even once. She was always the one chasing after him. Vivian was unwilling to give up. "Darren..."

"Vivian. I'll say it again," he interrupted her, his voice devoid of any emotion. "You take what I give you, but don't you covet what I don't intend to offer. If you're sensible, I can be kind to you." His tone was plain but carried a noticeable chill.

Vivian knew he was angry. Asking any more questions would be an unwise move.

Feeling a surge of bitterness, she changed the topic. "You went to the amusement park with Ms. Xavier today. Does that count as betraying me?"

"What kind of compensation do you want?" Darren admitted directly, asking carelessly. "An A-list resource? Ór 1.5 million dollars?"

Vivian

squeezed her hands and firmly said, "Marry me within three months."

Darren was silent for a long time. Just when she thought he might refuse, he agreed, "Alright."

Vivian let out a sigh of relief. No matter what, getting married was the first step. Feelings that weren't developed before the marriage could grow afterward.

go downstairs then. Vivian's visit wasn't entirely fruitless.

"Wait." Darren stopped her. "Tell me again how you saved me five years ago. My right eye was injured. You found me by the beach, didn't you?" Vivian's eyelashes fluttered, hiding the panic in her eyes. "Darren, didn't you always avoid talking about it? Why today..."

"Just answer what I ask." Darren lifted his eyes slightly.

Vivian hesitated, "Alright. I did find you by the beach..."

She took two minutes to explain everything.

She found him by the beach, hurriedly took him to the hospital, and he woke up. afterward.

After

finishing, Vivian asked with concern. "That's it. By the way, Darren, how have your been feeling lately?"

You can leave now, Darren said impassively.

Vivian pouted, "Okay, come downstairs for dinner later"

Darren watched her leave, his dark eyes filled with grim.

His left eye was the injured one, but he deliberately mentioned his right eye just now, and she didn't correct it.

Was she not listening to him, or did she not even know which eye was injured, so she didn't correct him?

He l

had

never questioned Vivian's role in saving his life five years ago. But he tested her today on a whim, and the outcome surprised him.

A throbbing sensation in his forehead appeared as he considered what Natalie had said. at the amusement park, that bold and assertive statement. Maybe he should investigate it again. Downstairs, Henry looked at Natalie, who looked spirited. He nodded and said, "You look much better than before. It seems like you're doing well after the divorce with Darren."

Natalie felt a bit embarrassed by the comment. "Yes, it's been good. I'm sorry for not telling you about the divorce in person, Grandpa Henry."

waved his hand. "You don't need to say more. I know what's going on. He must have forced you. He didn't even cherish such a good wife. What a shame!"

Natalie smiled generously, "Right. Not everyone gets the chance to marry me. I gave him a chance, but he just couldn't grab it

"Exactly. A useless piece of trash, Henry cursed along, "A disappointment. He wanted a divorce because of an unworthy woman. He'll regret it someday. When that time comes, I'm gonna set off fireworks to celebrate it. He is blind" Natalie agreed, her lips curling up. "You're right. He doesn't love me because he can't see the good in me. Grandpa Henry, you know I'm awesome, right?" Henry said firmly, "I'll protect the best Natalie in the world."

Natalie's eyes curved into a smile. "By the way do you still have the medication I gave

you

Yes, I do. Henry said. "If1 run out, 11 let you know. We don't talk about my health now. Let's talk about you. Have you met any decent guys lately? How about Jeremy?" "Him" Natalie laughed. "Do you want me to be with him?"

You

two look good together, aesthetically speaking, Henry commented.

Natalic blinked. "I won't be with him. He's not my type. But other than him, I've met hundreds of guys.*

"That many? Where are they?" Henry continued. "Let me help you choose a good one. Make sure you find someone worth it this time." Feeling that there was still time before dinner and with nothing better to do, Natalie pulled on her phone to show Henry. "They're here."

Henry got interested. "Wow, a group of over 800 people. Let me pick one for you. What do they look like? Don't pick the unattractive one." Natalie casually replied, "I can't let them send me their photos. Grandpa Henry, you can check them out and pick one for me. As Darren came downstairs, he happened to hear this and curiously asked, "What to pick?"
