第1章
Vivianne Hathaway had been in love with her boyfriend, Lucas Cannavale, for five years.
It was not until their engagement, she found out that Lucas had a beautiful girlfriend whom he had been thinking about for ten years.
Vivianne angrily cursed them for being shameless.
But Lucas took her hand and said, "I didn't know I would fall in love with two people at the same time. Kiara will go back to settle abroad. Vivianne, can you stay by my side?"
She denounced him for being shameless.
His girlfriend, Kiara Baker, lifted her chin and said, "It was just a farewell kiss, but if you try to provoke me like this again, I don't mind confirming your identity as a mistress."
Kiara left, but came back three days later and publicly announced her engagement to Lucas.
The fiancé became someone else's groom.
Vivianne felt like a joke.
***
"Stellan, you said you found my biological parents, is that true?"
"Of course, they have their own reasons and they have been looking for you all these years. I can take you to see them anytime."
Vivianne hesitated for a moment.
She looked up at the woman who was walking slowly towards her in the heavy snow with an umbrella and finally made up her mind. "Okay, I'll go with you."
Stellan Lautner was stunned. He kept asking her on the other end of the phone. "Really? Aren't you getting married next month? Your parents are in Germany. It will take a long time to travel back and forth. Can you make it?"
"It's okay. I've thought about it. Besides, I probably won't ...."
She paused, then she did not continue the rest of her words.
What she wanted to say was ... she probably would not attend her own wedding because the groom had fallen in love with another woman.
When she hung up the phone, Kiara happened to walk to her.
This woman who had been divorced twice was Lucas' subordinate. Vivianne witnessed her kissing Lucas passionately in front of the study window half an hour ago with her own eyes!
He was her childhood sweetheart of more than twenty years, her boyfriend of five years and the man who proposed to her four months ago in front of the elders ....
Now he sat coldly in the car, watching Vivianne shivering in the wind and snow and being provoked by the mistress in front of him.
Kiara stroked her elegant long hair, exuding an intellectual beauty.
She looked down at Vivianne, tilted her head and smiled mockingly. "Little poor thing, hiding here wearing such clothes, are you trying to sell your misery and wait for your fiancé to come and apologize to you?"
"What are you doing here! Are you here to protest against me?"
Vivianne stood up angrily, her face was blue from the cold, but her eyes were bloodshot.
"I'm here to persuade you to go home."
Kiara furrowed her brows and pointed to the car behind her. "I'm leaving Optimuz. I came here today to handle the last part of my work. The kiss just now was just a farewell."
"Don't think too much, go back quickly, Lucas still loves you."
Vivianne was stunned for half a minute before cursing loudly. "Do you need to kiss him and hug him like that to say goodbye? You shameless woman!"
Kiara, who was over thirty years old, had held a high position in her career. She would normally get angry if she was cursed and insulted, but unexpectedly she laughed.
"I said, it was just a farewell kiss, but if you try to provoke me again, I don't mind confirming this identity."
She took a step forward and lifted Vivianne's chin with her delicate fingers. "You should know that in front of me, you have no chance of winning," she said.
Vivianne was struck by lightning.
Even though she tried to suppress her emotions, she could not control her tears from flowing down because ... what Kiara said was true.
She came from an excellent background, her work ability was extremely strong and her smile was so charming.
In contrast, Vivianne was too ordinary. As soon as she was born to the world, she was abandoned and when she was seventeen, her adoptive parent both passed away. Now, she was in her early twenties and reckless.
So, he was the only one Vivianne had in this world.
第2章
In front of Kiara, she was no match.
"Well, it's getting late. I have to go to the airport. Go home, Girl."
She said, trying to step forward and give Vivianne a comforting hug, but Vivianne burst into anger and pushed her hard. "Get lost! Don't touch me!"
"Ah!" Kiara screamed in surprise.
At the same time, Vivianne was thrown to the ground by another even greater force.
"How are you? Are you okay? Did she hurt you?" Lucas' nervous voice came.
Vivianne looked up in shock, only to see the staggering Kiara being held tightly in the arms of the man who rushed over, with a worried expression on his face.
"It's okay, she wasn't intentional."
"What do you mean it wasn't intentional!"
Lucas' face darkened instantly. He pulled Kiara behind him, turned around, pointed at Vivianne's nose and started yelling.
"I think you are becoming more and more willful! It's snowing hard and she's wearing high heels. What if she slips and rolls down the slope? When will you be more sensible?"
"You're always like this, getting angry at the slightest provocation and running away from home at the slightest provocation! I think you've watched too many low-rate TV dramas and your mind is full of those ridiculous things! Get the hell out of here and go home!"
After saying that, without even glancing at Vivianne who was lying on the ground, he picked up Kiara and walked towards the car.
From beginning to end, there was not even a single explanation for that kiss.
Vivianne laid on the ground, watching the two figures snuggling together go away in despair and the cold wind carried their words to her ears.
"Are you just going to leave her like this? After all, you've watched her grow up, aren't you afraid that she'll run away?"
"This is her home, where can she run to?"
Lucas was right.
Vivianne indeed had nowhere to go.
She was six years younger than Lucas. She always followed him like a tail when she was a child. Then, after her adoptive parents passed away when she was seventeen, he took her to the Cannavale Family and took care of her despite all objections.
At that time, Lucas' parents wanted to adopt Vivianne as their daughter, but Lucas was unwilling to do so. It was not until the day of his high school graduation that he confessed his feelings to her. Then everyone realized that he had fallen in love with her.
Everything that followed came naturally.
During the five years of their love, Lucas treated her gently, affectionately and carefully, as if she were a fragile flower vase, which could break and shatter at any moment.
After Vivianne graduated from university, he opened a bookstore for her to pass the time because he was worried that she would be bullied if she worked in a company. Four months ago, he even proposed to her on an island.
Unexpectedly, just overnight, all the sweetness turned into a knife piercing into Vivianne's heart.
Lucas' car drove away.
Kiara resigned and left California, so he went to see her off in person.
Vivianne knelt in the snow, watching the distant car lights, crying uncontrollably.
As soon as she woke up, she was already in the hospital.
Stellan was sitting in front of her bed, his face full of worry.
"You finally woke up. You almost scared me to death."
"Why am I here?"
"That's what I want to ask you, why did you go out to sleep in the snow instead of staying at home in the middle of the night? If someone passing by hadn't discovered you and called the police in time ...." He sighed, then continued, "the doctor said that if you brought here a minute late, you wouldn't be saved."
Vivianne was taken aback.
She guessed she was too sad last night that she passed out from the cold.
"What? You've been lying down for three days before." Stellan sighed helplessly. When he saw the girl's blank look, he hesitated and said, "Vivianne, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."
"Just tell me."
She even accepted Lucas' cheating, so what else was there that she could not accept?
第3章
Stellan hesitated before finally throwing his phone over and saying, "You'd better take a look yourself."
Vivianne's face instantly turned pale as she looked at it.
That was a post on Kiara's social media. There were no caption on it, only a pair of hands clasped together. The hand belonged to her and there was a ring on the ring finger.
As for the other hand, even if it turned into ashes, Vivianne could still recognize it as Lucas!
"They ...." She stared at Stellan in disbelief.
He nodded in awkward and said, "I can't recognize them. It just so happened that the restaurant where they had dinner belonged to my friend. Vivianne, did you break up with Lucas?"
Her throat choked and she did not know how to answer.
All of this happened too unexpectedly and she did not even have a chance to break up. Now it seemed that she was dumped, right?
Her condition was so bad that Stellan did not dare to speak more.
The ward fell into a deathly silence until Vivianne's phone vibrated a few times.
She opened it blankly, but the moment she read the message, her whole body froze.
[Sorry, I regretted it, so I decided to stay.]
[Vivianne, I want to take back the ring Lucas gave you.]
[A renovation team will come to our house in a few days. Orchid Tower No. 7 will be our new house. You should know what to do.]
It was from Kiara.
She used Lucas' WhatsApp to send those messages.
She even thoughtfully sent a photo of her and Lucas kissing under candlelight.
Vivianne's breathing stopped in a while.
She covered her mouth tightly as tears fell down uncontrollably, wetting the screen and her finger.
Stellan was so frightened that he hurriedly handed over the tissue. "What's wrong? What's wrong? If you have something uncomfortable, let's talk about it and deal with it properly. Don't cry," he said.
She did not want others to see her miserable appearance, so she buried herself in the blanket and gritted her teeth to surpress her sadness and disappointment.
Her fiancé proposed to someone else without her knowing ....
Was there anything more absurd and ridiculous than this?
It took Vivianne a long time to calm down. She asked Stellan to help with the discharge procedures and asked him to contact her biological parents as soon as possible. Then, she took a taxi home.
To be precise, to the Cannavale manor.
The new hostess had come in person to chase everyone away. No matter how thick-skinned Vivianne was, she could not stay there any longer. She had to go back immediately to pack up her things and move out.
The manor was empty.
Lucas' father, Hendry Cannavale, was hospitalized due to a sudden heart attack a few days ago. Lucas' mother, Lilliana Cannavale and the caregiver went to the hospital to accompany and take care of him.
In the room, Vivianne sat on her bed in a daze, feeling her heart broken into pieces.
There were traces of Lucas in every corner of this house.
In the small garden, he planted her favorite flowers and swing set by himself.
The living room was covered with a long rabbit velvet carpet because she loved to go barefoot.
When she first lost her adoptive parents, she could not sleep well, so Lucas gave up his room and communicated with the designer about the details of the decoration, then every night thereafter was sweet for her.
The more beautiful the past was, the more piercing the reality was.
She did not know how long she had been sitting there before she got up and decided to leave. She did not have much stuff with her, only some documents related to going abroad and a few sets of clothes to change into.
Just like coming to this house alone, when she left, she should also be clean and tidy.
As soon as Vivianne reached the staircase, she heard the sound of a car driving in from the yard and the door was pushed open from outside.
Her breath caught in her throat and she just stared helplessly as Lucas and Kiaraa walked in hand in hand.
The living room was so quiet.
Until Lucas' indifferent voice rang out. "Why are you here?"
第4章
Vivianne almost burst into tears.
This house was the place where she lived for eight years and the room upstairs was the place Lucas decorated for her personally.
Even, in order to prevent her from feeling inferior because of living under someone else's roof, on Vivianne's birthday that year, Lucas and his parents personally took her to witness her name being engraved on the house book of this family!
Now he was asking her why she was here.
"I ~"
Vivianne wanted to question him why she could not be here and they had not officially broken up yet, she wanted to question him why he brought another woman into this house so openly.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Kiara.
"It's okay, Lucas, I've finally decided to stay. So don't get angry over such a small matter, okay?" Kiara smiled gently and took his hand to sit on the sofa. "Besides, Vivianne is also your sister. Don't treat her like this."
Sister?
Vivianne looked at the man in disbelief, only to see him frowning in disgust.
"Okay, stop speaking up for her! Even if she's my sister, she can't be so willful! I've spoiled her too much over the years and she has become so spoiled now!"
So, he thought of me as his little sister now?
Vivianne felt like she was falling into an icy cave.
But it was clearly him who confessed his love first, he was the one who refused to let Vivianne be his adopted daughter and he was the one who announced in front of all the relatives that Vivianne was his girlfriend and the girl he was going to marry in the future.
Now he said she was his little sister?
So what exactly were the past eight years?
Vivianne could no longer control her emotions and rushed to Lucas with tears in her eyes. "Explain it to me clearly! What do you mean by 'even if she's my sister'? What do you mean by 'I become so spoiled'? Explain it to me word by word!"
"And these, this photo, this information, the ring you asked your secretary to order, the wedding banquet you asked the hotel to cancel, the wedding dress you asked your manager to re-order, you asked me to, what do you want me to do?"
When it came to the last sentence, her voice was already hoarse.
She must have a fever again and her head hurt so much that it felt like it was about to explode.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Lucas' face. He was silent for a long time, then walked forward and took Vivianne's hand. "I'm sorry, Vivianne. I have struggled and hesitated, but I really didn't expect that I would fall in love with two women at the same time."
"What did you say ...."
"No matter what, this is your home and I will be your family for life. Kiara will still leave after a while. Later, she will be abroad and you will be here. Let's get along well together, okay?"
Vivianne's whole body trembled and she could not believe what she had just heard.
She looked at Kiara next to her helplessly, but she saw her spreading her hands casually and responded, "I don't mind, open marriage, no one needs to be tied up."
Vivianne felt that the two of them must be crazy, otherwise how could they say such things?
She shook off Lucas' hand and yelled at him, pointing at his face.
"You bastard!"
"You were the one who chased me in the first place! You brought me to this house! We were already engaged, we didn't break up and now you not only shamelessly brought this woman into the house, but you also humiliated me like this and you still -"
A piercing slap sounded.
Vivianne had always been pampered.
In the past, it was her adoptive parents who held her in their hands and later it was Lucas' parents who treated her as their own daughter and Lucas, who had known her for more than twenty years and had never said a harsh word to her.
Now he hit her for a mistress!
The slap was so hard that Vivianne, who was still weak, was pushed and hit the wine cabinet.
第5章
The wine splashed all over her body, the broken glass stabbed her bare feet and the solid wood cabinet fell down and hit her arm.
Vivianne laid on the floor miserably, sweating all over from the pain.
In a daze, she seemed to hear the sound of bones breaking.
"Are you crazy, Lucas? Hurry, call an ambulance!"
Kiara screamed, then she was about to step forward and help Vivianne, but Lucas who had an iron face, pulled her hand.
"Don't worry about her! It's just a minor injury. She won't die."
"I've given her a choice. She's the one who doesn't know what's good for her. She even dared to insult you. I don't know how arrogant she'll become if I don't teach her a lesson!"
Lucas' cold gaze fell on Vivianne and he said, "Remember this! Kiara is your future sister-in-law and the future lady of this family. Show her some respect in the future."
Vivianne was almost dying from the pain.
She bit her lip too hard and the blood flowed out from the corners of her lips, mixing with the red wine that flowed from her head, leaving scars on her fair skin.
She used all her strength to look at him and asked in a low voice, "Lucas, what have you treated me like in these five years?"
"You -"
Just as Lucas was about to speak, Kiara interrupted him.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. I'm tired and sleepy. Lucas, can you go up and help me clean up the room? Vivianne is still weak. Let me talk to her for a while."
The way she spoke was so gentle and her gaze emitted tenderness and love.
The anger and hostility on Lucas' face immediately subsided.
He lowered his head and gave Kiara's forehead a kiss, then he signaled a warning to her before going upstairs.
The spacious living room fell silent again.
Vivianne's hand must have been broken and she felt dizzy.
But she did not want to appear weak in front of Kiara and struggled to get up from the floor.
She heard a mocking voice coming from above her head.
"Are you pretending to be weak and pitiful? It's a pity."
"It's a pity, the only one who might feel sorry for you has already gone upstairs and me, your love rival, would wish you to be even more miserable."
Vivianne raised her head and replied, "Kiara, don't push yourself too far."
"So what?"
Kiara sneered, took a step forward and squatted in front of her, "As you can see, I came in and snatched your most precious man away, what can you do?"
"You!"
"Seeing your pitiful appearance, I'll be honest with you."
Kiara curled her lips, then lifted Vivianne's chin.
She had such a gentle and charming face, but the words she spoke sounded as if they were filled with poison.
"I met Lucas when you were seventeen years old and after dating for more than two years, we broke up because we were young and impetuous. He kept pestering me for a long time until I married my first husband and gave up. Then, as you know, he confessed his feelings to you and took you back to the Cannavales."
"You ... what did you say ...."
Vivianne's whole body was stiff and even her lips were trembling when she spoke.
Kiara patted her shoulder indifferently and said, "Don't be so surprised, Vivianne. You should feel grateful because you are somewhat similar to me so you can live the life of a little princess for five years."
"Two years ago, after I divorced my first husband, Lucas came to me drunk in the middle of the night and then I found out that he hadn't let me go yet. That day ...."
She paused, then leaned close to Vivianne's ear and said softly and maliciously, "That day, we did it. Even after such a long time, we are still harmonious and happy."
第6章
"I guess, he hasn't touched you in these five years, right?"
Vivianne immediately bit her lip until it bled.
She felt so heartbroken that she pushed her away, screaming and collapsing. "Get lost! Shut up! Shut up!"
Kiara stood up and glanced at her, who was crying on the floor, full of sympathy. Then, she walked upstairs in her soft slippers.
The living room was filled with the miserable and day-wrenching cries.
Memories flooded into Vivianne's mind like a tide.
Kiara left, because there was no need for her to explain what happened next one by one."
Having been dating for five years, Lucas had never touched Vivianne, claiming that he was a religious believer and could not have sex before marriage.
Even when she was lying on the same bed and when she was wearing sexy lingerie on purpose to seduce him, he never wavered.
It turned out that all his passion and desire were vented on another woman.
She always thought that she was the happiest woman in the world, but now she realized that she was the most ridiculous one!
Three years ago, Lucas flew to the UK in the middle of the night on the pretext of an urgent problem with the project and stayed there for a whole month. It turned out that he was rekindling his old relationship with his ex-girlfriend.
Two years ago, he personally flew to Germany to invite Kiara back as the CFO of Optimuz, under the pretext of a shortage of personnel in the company. It turned out that it was because she had divorced again, but he was still willing to be her bootlicker.
Three days ago, he brought Kiara home on the pretext of a work handover and kissed her passionately in the study. It turned out that she was leaving and he was trying hard to keep her.
God helped those who put in effort and Lucas' wish came true.
In the end, Kiara was willing not to leave for him and Lucas did not want to be hypocritical with Vivianne anymore, which was why he was suddenly like a different person, disliking and targeting her anytime.
"So, that's the truth."
"So, it turns out I'm just a substitute."
"For five whole years, I lived a lie, being teased and laughed at like a clown ...."
She murmured, her eyes red and swollen.
The door was wide open and the cold wind whistled into the room. She just laid on the cold floor, crying and then laughing.
"Idiot, hahahaha, Vivianne, you are such a fucking idiot!"
The night was getting deeper and deeper.
Vivianne did not know how long she had been lying there, nor did she know when she went upstairs. The next day, when she woke up groggy, she found herself lying on the bed in her room.
She must have a fever, her body burning and shivering. Her injured arm yesterday must have also been numb that she could no longer feel the pain.
There were two or three missed calls on her phone and they were all from Stellan.
There was still a bunch of messages and it was also from him.
But none of those messages were urgent. He asked her how she was going after she came back and whether she had encountered any difficult problems.
Vivianne thought of what Kiara said yesterday.
She touched her face, which no longer hurt and a bitter smile appeared at the corners of her lips.
Forget it, I won't tell Stellan about these kinds of things, otherwise, with his temper, he will hit them. I have been a joke for five years, so I should give myself some respect.
Even though it might seem ridiculous.
Vivianne got up from the bed, struggled to wash up and change her clothes with one hand, then left the room.
This time, she brought her ID card and passport.
For one thing, it was inconvenient for her hands to hold anything else and for another, most of those were bought by Lucas.
She did not want to make herself even more despicable, so she just did not want any of it and left as clean as she came.
But when she passed the staircase, she still unconsciously stopped in her step.
There were intense sounds coming from inside.
第7章
It seemed that Kiara was moaning, mixed with Lucas' low roar.
After listening to it for a few seconds, Vivianne suddenly reacted and her face instantly turned pale.
Early in the morning, they were ....
She did not know how embarrassed she was when she escaped from the house. Even after she got into the taxi, her tears were still streaming down her face.
She grasped her chest tightly, almost suffocating from the pain.
More than twenty years of love and eight years of trust, to now when she was about to leave, Vivianne realized that her first half of her life was all about Lucas. It was too difficult and painful to let it go.
Vivianne had not told Anastasia Reitman about her leaving yet. She was still feeling upset and disappointed about losing her job recently, so Vivianne did not want to burden her.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of the hospital.
She paid the fare and got out of the taxi, then registered to see the doctor.
"You have a fever. I'll prescribe some medicine and give you an IV drip later. Your arm is fine, so you don't need a cast. Please be more careful and don't bump into it again." The doctor came to the conclusion.
Vivianne was a little surprised and then bitter.
In the past few years, she had been spoiled by Lucas. She just fell down, but she could not even bear the pain. She rushed to the hospital to take an X-ray ....
The infusion hall was crowded. Vivianne sat alone inside, looking at those couples and bosses with envy. Just a month ago, she naively thought that she and Lucas could grow old together.
Now it seemed so ridiculous.
Three hours passed in a flash. She hesitated for a long time, but in the end, she went into the inpatient department in the back.
Lucas' father, Hendry, had been there all these years and he would have surgery the day after tomorrow. But Vivianne should no longer be in California by then. After all, he treated her like his own daughter. So, she still wanted to say goodbye before leaving.
Even if she could not go into his ward and meet him, at least she could see him in front of the door of his ward.
But as soon as she reached the door, she suddenly stopped.
In the ward, she heard Lucas' mother, Lilliana, sighed and said,
"I guess, Vivianne is really leaving this time, right? Lucas, that scoundrel, told us to keep it a secret, but he made it known to the whole city. How can we live like this from now on?"
Hendry also sounded very angry.
"If it weren't for seeing Lucas suffer from heartbreak all day long, how could I have agreed to let Vivianne live in! I thought forcing them to get engaged would help calm things down, but I didn't expect that Kiara would go back on her word."
"Hendry, what do you think we should do if Vivianne refuses to leave him? Kiara is pregnant, but she hasn't shown any signs of pregnancy yet. If she finds out that the baby is born in the wrong month and makes a scene, where can we put the face of the Cannavales?"
"I'll come up with a solution later. If it doesn't work out, I'll take her abroad on the pretext that I need someone to take care of me after surgery and then arrange a marriage partner for her. Vivianne is innocent and quite filial. After all, we've raised her for eight years, so she won't dare disobey us. Don't worry."
Vivianne could not bear to listen to the rest of the words anymore.
She tightly covered her mouth and used all her strength to hold onto the window to prevent herself from collapsing.
It turned out that for so many years, she had been living in the lies they carefully woven!
Lucas' love for her was fake. He was just trying to find the shadow of another person in herself. Lucas' parents' treatment of her as their own daughter was also fake. In their eyes, she was just a tool to appease their son.
Even that mistress, Kiara!
No, perhaps in their eyes, I was the mistress.
Thinking of these, Vivianne felt even more pain. She gritted her teeth tightly to prevent herself from crying and every step she took towards the elevator was as painful as a needle prick.
第8章
Fortunately, she discovered all of this when she was still young and unmarried. Besides she had planned to leave them.
Before, she thought that leaving without saying a word would be a bit unfair to Lucas' parents and would be like an ungrateful person. Now it seemed that she was overthinking.
The elevator door slowly opened.
She covered her red and swollen eyes with sunglasses, straightened up her emotions and lifted her head. However, the moment she met the eyes of the people inside, her whole body stiffened.
It was Lucas and Kiara.
Vivianne did not want them to see her in such a mess, so she covered her face and turned around to leave, but Lucas grabbed her arm first. "Why are you here?"
"There's something I have to do here."
Vivianne did not turn back, maintaining the posture of being pulled by him and answering in a low voice.
Lucas frowned tightly and said, "Are you sick? Why is your voice so hoarse? Did you kick off the blanket when you slept last night?"
She almost could not hold it anymore.
What did he mean with this?
It was him who confessed, it was him who proposed, it was him who cheated, it was him who used cold violence, it was him who treated Vivianne as a substitute and it was him who brought the mistress into the house to hurt and humiliate her last night!
Vivianne shook off the man's hand, turned around and looked into his dark eyes through her sunglasses.
"Now, in what capacity are you caring about me?" She sarcastically pointed to Kiara next to her, "So, is this the true sweetheart of yours?"
Lucas seemed to freeze for a moment.
He took a step forward, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he caught a glimpse of the arm held by Kiara, he fell silent again.
After a long time, he responded expressionlessly, "You don't have to be so weird. Even if you can't be my lover, you will always be my sister."
Hearing his words, Vivianne almost burst out laughing.
How could there be someone as shameless as Lucas in the world?
Her former-self was so blind, that was why she was so devoted to him!
She was subjected to cold violence, betrayal, deception, being used as a substitute and being confronted by the mistress ... all the resentment and anger surged into her heart at this moment.
She could not bear it any longer and slapped him in the face.
"Fuck your shitty sister!"
"Lucas, you are such a scumbag, a complete scumbag!" She yelled, then calmly looked at him for the last time and said softly, "We broke up."
The elevator closed and opened again.
This time, Vivianne did not avoid or hesitate and went straight in.
