Vivian couldn't stop checking on her appearance through the mirror as she found herself odd.
She had always preferred dressing up casually as she prioritized comfort over her look. Currently, she had all sorts of designers item on her. She started wobbling due to the pair of high heels she had put on.
In the end, she asked Finnick, "Are you sure it's necessary for me to put on such a showy set of outfits?"
"Of course!" Finnick beamed his reply.
Fine. Since it's what my husband wants, I guess I'll go along with it.
Finnick would never allow his wife to take the public transport to work after he had gone to great lengths to doll her up. Therefore, he instructed Noah to drop her off at her workplace and got another driver to send him to the venue of the press conference.
The moment Vivian walked into the office building, her presence grabbed the attention of the men present. She lowered her gaze immediately and sprinted into the elevator.
The person in charge of the elevator scrutinized Vivian from top to bottom. Feeling uncomfortable, Vivian's palms started sweating as she had never once attracted others' attention before. In fact, it was the first time in a few years after she started working in this particular office building that she had inadvertently become the center of attention.
She regretted adhering to Finnick's instruction because she couldn't possibly get herself changed into another set of outfits. Since there wasn't anything she could do about it, she braced herself and made her way into the magazine company.
Sarah, Jenny, and Ken were as busy as bees because they had to get everything ready before heading over to the venue of the press conference.
The moment Sarah spotted a noble-looking woman making her way into their office, she rushed over and greeted, "Hello, how may I help you?"
"Sarah, it's me! I'm Vivian!" Vivian lowered her head and whispered because she was certain her colleague had mistaken her as a customer."
"Oh. My. God!" Sarah shrieked involuntarily.
Everyone turned around the moment they noticed the commotion. They looked in the direction of Vivian and Sarah and thought Sarah had encountered a thief.
"Vivian? Is it really you?" Sarah gaped at Vivian in awe.
"Oh, my! It is you!"
"Vivian! You are looking absolutely stunning!"
Vivian's colleagues couldn't move their eyes away from her because she seemed different from her usual self. They were impressed by her noblelooking look and thought she must have some great news to share with them.
