Andrew's heart raced as rage coursed through his body. His hold on the phone quivered. The anger building within him made it impossible to carry on the call. He was unable to talk, and he couldn't think clearly.

He carefully positioned himself, crouching a bit, his gaze focused on Vivian and Lancelot.

Vivian chuckled at a remark made by Lancelot. The noise failed to reach Andrew, yet the image of her smiling at him stirred something profound within his heart.

Lancelot and Vivian strolled side by side as they returned to their seats.

Andrew remained crouched, observing them. He kept his eyes wide open.

A few minutes later, Vivian abruptly got to her feet.

Andrew's gaze darted toward her. Her face revealed nothing, yet she kept her phone to her ear, the tiny gadget firmly pressed against her cheek. She looked at Lancelot briefly, then turned and walked away from the gathered crowd.

Andrew got up gradually, his eyes fixed on Vivian. She didn't glance back or stop. She had no idea

  • Beneath the Broken Vows   Chapter 114: Covered Secret 

    Cecilia stepped down from the taxi that had taken her to Ethan's house. Her fingers gripped the bag strap tightly as she wrapped the coat around herself and sighed.Just as her knuckles brushed the surface of Ethan's door, it opened, as if it had been expecting her.The door revealed Ethan, dressed in a body-hugging blue shirt and gray joggers. His two eyes were on Cecilia as she stood at the entrance door. "You should have allowed me to pick you up," he remarked, moving closer. His voice was softer than the way it used to sound before. "I can't grasp why you preferred that I didn't pick you up." Without waiting for a reply, Ethan folded her into his arms.Her voice barely a breath, Cecilia murmured, "I needed it to happen like that," as her lips traced the warmth of his skin. Ethan withdrew slightly to look at Cecilia again. Her eyes drifted beyond him, stealing the words from his mouth before they could form. The living room glowed softly, and on the sofa sat a woman of quiet di

  • Beneath the Broken Vows   Chapter 113: Hug for Closure

    Cecilia halted abruptly, crossing her arms over her chest. "What brings you to my apartment, Andrew?" Andrew opened his lips, then shut them once more. Nothing emerged. His gaze sought hers, yet he was at a loss for words. Cecilia's voice became more cutting. "Honestly, Andrew, I believe it's high time I filed a restraining order against you." Perhaps that will encourage you to cease following me. Andrew stepped forward carefully. Cecilia promptly took a step back. Her body was stiff as if prepared to flee or attack. He raised his hands in submission. "I'm not here to create problems, Cecilia." "I promise." "So why are you here, then?" Cecilia asked"I only..." His voice trailed off, yet this time he persisted. "See, I only came to say sorry." "Not so you can bring me back into your life. No. I'm here to seek your forgiveness and the sake of harmony." Cecilia's gaze tightened, yet she remained silent. Andrew took a deep breath as if mustering the bravery for what was to follow.

  • Beneath the Broken Vows   Chapter 112: Betrayal

    “Don’t you love me anymore?” Vivian inquired, her voice quivering with a hurt cry hidden beneath her. "Love?" Lancelot uttered the word as if it were offensive. “Did you genuinely believe I ever consented to that absurd scheme of yours?” Vivian blinked, astonished. “But, we both agreed,” she maintained, moving a bit nearer. "I convinced you to give me six months so that I can divorce Andrew." So that we can be together. You mentioned we had to be cautious. That the Blackwood pack…” “I never backed that foolish notion,” Lancelot interjected. "When you mentioned it to me," I told you that I would have a second thought about that. That doesn’t indicate my agreement. "When have I ever provided you with an actual response to that?" Her breathing caught. Vivian sensed the stone ground beneath her becoming chillier. "When you said that you would think about it, I assumed that…” "That's your issue, Vivian." His tone had turned into a growl, a deep, controlled snarl. "You assumed." “But

  • Beneath the Broken Vows   Chapter 111: Veil of Deception

    Vivian pivoted swiftly and marched away. Andrew observed her departure before moving away from the tree and vanishing into the street unnoticed. Later that evening, Andrew remained still in the crowd like a statue. Pedro, who was sitting next to him, poked his arm. "Are you alright?" he murmured over the noise. "You've hardly blinked since our arrival." Andrew avoided looking at him. His eyes followed the models' graceful march, but his mind wandered distantly. Pedro made another attempt. "You tend to be the most vocal person at these events." "What is happening?" No response. Pedro moved in nearer. "Is everything alright, Andrew?" Andrew provided a brief, terse response. "I'm okay." "There's nothing I cannot manage." Pedro scowled. That didn't seem persuasive. Before he could investigate more, the lights faded once more for the next collection, and Pedro leaned back, worry visible on his face. After the fashion event, Andrew exited silently. Even at the conference the follow

    "How considerate of you," Andrew remarked, his voice soft over the sound of flowing water. "It will certainly benefit your business." Vivian angled a bit towards him, her expression brightening with a gentle smile. "I certainly hope so." I currently possess more than two hundred thousand followers. Even if only a small percentage purchases, that represents a significant increase." Andrew acknowledged. "It's a smart move and tactical." They remained still for a brief time, allowing the warm mist to relieve the tightness in their muscles. Vivian approached the glass door, pushed it open, and stepped onto the mat. Water flowed down her back as she enveloped herself in a towel, her actions graceful and intentional. Without uttering another word, she vanished into the bedroom. Andrew lingered a bit more in the shower. He subsequently shut off the water, rubbed his face with both hands, and exited. Droplets hit the ground as he took a towel and stepped outside to meet Vivian. Morning
