After leaving Midland Villa, Vivienne returned home and was about to rest after freshening up when she got a call from Isolde.

“Vivienne, you gotta help my brother!” The little girl’s sweet voice was tinged with sorrow. “He got stung by a wasp!”

Vivienne was dumbfounded.

Isolde was crying pretty hard, so Vivienne comforted her. “Don’t worry, I’m on my way.”

After ending the call, Vivienne was about to head out when she remembered something. She turned around, took out her suitcase, and packed a few sets of clothes.

As she was about to pull her suitcase out the door, Dorian and Cordelia, who had been woken up by the noise, looked at her in surprise and asked, “Vivienne, it’s so late. Are you packing because you’re going far away?”

“Percival got a little hurt, and I promised Richard I’d take care of him, so I decided to stay with him for a few days.” Vivienne said calmly.

“Oh, well…” Dorian hesitated a bit. “Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for a guy and a girl to be alone together?”

He felt like someone else was about to eat the cabbage he had grown.

Vivienne fell silent.

Of course, she wasn’t moving into Percival’s house to develop feelings for him.

She had never found the opportunity to investigate why her mother’s pendant was in Percival’s possession.
