Vivienne nodded. The Brooks family's affairs were no longer of her concern. However, if they came knocking on her door one day seeking help, she would not turn a blind eye. If they did not, well, then it was live and let live.

Ronald caught Vivienne's gaze, and his expression flickered with oddness for a split second before he resumed his composure and nodded at her in greeting.

Mark, still playing it cool with Vivienne, showed no reaction.

Where the heck had Thomas, that little rascal, run off to?

He should be back driving now that he had recovered from his sickness, right?

Had he not been back at work just a couple of days ago?
