Vivian walked slowly back home as she didn't drive. As the cold wind blew, it constantly dried the tears that were streaming down her cheeks.
Today, she mourned the loss of a family member figuratively.
After a few days, when Vivian was at work, she received a call from Rachel. She informed Vivian that the test report showed that Evelyn's bone marrow was a match. With some preparation, they would be able to undergo the operation.
Vivian was delighted to hear the news. Although Rachel's recent actions had saddened her, Vivian still hoped that she could lead a healthy life.
At the end of the day, Rachel had raised her and occupied an important place in her heart.
"Vivian, have you come to a decision on Evelyn's matter?" Rachel asked in a probing manner.
Vivian's smile dissipated immediately as she replied in a dispassionate tone, "Let's talk about it later. For now, we should focus on your health and get you prepared for the operation."
"Alright, another time then. I'm sure you need more time to consider." Rachel was embarrassed to push the matter further.
After acknowledging Rachel, Vivian ended the call. When she looked at the proposal in front of her, she realized that she was too frustrated to do any work.
For the last few days, her gloomy mood had unsettled her and affected her performance at work.
It was under such circumstances that the time for her interview with Hunter arrived.
After preparing the material and questions for the interview, Vivian received a call from Hunter before she had the opportunity to call him.
"Vivian, I'm at your office entrance. Come down quickly." Hunter sounded excited. "Have you forgotten that you have to interview me today?"
"Huh? No, how could I forget? It's just..." Shouldn't I be the one going over to see Hunter instead?Why have the roles been reversed?
"What were you saying?" Hunter asked inquisitively. "Could it be that you're busy today?"
"It's nothing. I'm heading down now. Please wait for me." Vivian ended the call after she replied.
She began to feel something was amiss as this didn't fit the standard procedure of an interview.
