Rachel regretted getting all worked up and going ballistic. Thinking that Vivian did it out of concern for her, Rachel decided to explain herself.
"It's okay. I just wanted to take good care of you. Since it makes you feel uncomfortable, I'll stop and just let things be."
Vivian was not bothered by what happened. She stopped convincing Rachel since the latter had no intention of heeding her advice.
Regardless of what Rachel had to say, Vivian listened indifferently.
"OK." Not knowing what to say in response, Rachel simply nodded.
The long-distance travel was not very comfortable, resulting in Vivian getting pins and needles.
When she got off the car, she immediately moved her body to relax her muscles.
Subsequently, she assisted Rachel off the car.
"Sir, can you wait for us for thirty minutes? I'll pay you accordingly." Commuting in a rural area was rather inconvenient. Thus, Vivian figured it was best to get the same driver to wait for them.
"Sure, I'll be here. You go ahead and do what you need to do." Upon hearing he would be getting paid for waiting, the driver agreed gleefully without any complaints.
Vivian acknowledged with a nod and went ahead with Rachel.
"Where do you want these placed?" Those were Rachel's clothes, some medicines bought from the hospital, and basic amenities.
Vivian sought her opinion so that she knew where to look for them later on.
"Just leave them on the table.”
It took Vivian twenty minutes to unpack and arrange everything.
Turning to Rachel, she said, "I'll take my leave now. Call me if you need me”
Before leaving, Vivian left her contact details on the table for Rachel.
"Vivian..."
Vivian felt bad for making the driver wait for her for more than half an hour.
"Sorry, Sir, I took longer than expected."
"That's fine. Shall we go now?”
"Yes, please."
During the journey back, Vivian got bored and started browsing entertainment news on her phone.
Lexi, whom the tabloids reported as Finnick's most recent girlfriend, finally became popular. Although she relied on a man to get famous, she does have some real capabilities.
