Scarlett Hayes POV

I felt drenched to the bone, my carefully applied makeup washed away, and my white dress stained with wine. Under the harsh lights, I looked like a ghost, utterly disheveled. What made me even more embarrassed was that no one at the table was willing to help me.

Vivian Carter coldly warned, "Scarlett, this time it was red wine. Next time, it might be a cold knife. You better watch yourself!"

I trembled with anger, but with Dominic Blackwood present, I couldn't lash out. Inste

    Vivian pov At this moment, he chose to set aside his feelings, not wanting to drag me into trouble. Isaac Blackwood had already set his sights on me, and keeping our relationship as neutral as possible would only benefit me.Although he had recently sent people to protect me in secret, Isaac was cunning and could take advantage of any opportunity to strike.He had to act indifferent toward me, making Isaac believe that I was never his weakness.Just as he was about to instruct Fairfax to turn around and leave, he spotted Lincoln Walter speeding by in his flashy Ferrari. This reminded him of Lincoln's earlier phone call, where he mentioned he would personally make chicken soup for me.He pointed at Lincoln and said, "See that peacock over there? He’s driving me crazy. Get him out of my sight!"Fairfax smirked slightly; Dominic was indeed a man of contradictions. He claimed to let go, yet he couldn’t stand to see another man fawning over me.Lincoln Walter, holding a box of cut black c

    Vivian pov The moment the car crashed, the airbags deployed, causing my head to throb and my ears to ring.The other driver showed no intention of getting out to apologize; they simply parked a short distance away.Fuming with anger, I unbuckled my seatbelt and wobbled over to the two Maybachs parked nearby.I raised my foot and kicked the car door hard. "Do you even know how to drive?!"The window of one Maybach rolled down, revealing a well-preserved face that, although middle-aged, still looked good. He smiled at me and said, "Vivian, it's been a while, oh wait, you’re divorced from Dominic Blackwood now. I should just call you Vivian."I remembered my first meeting with Isaac Blackwood three years ago. At that time, the Blackwood family had refused to attend my modest wedding, but Isaac had come alone, offering blessings and gifts."I'll help you fix your car, but I’m curious if you have time to join me for a cup of tea?"With his polite demeanor, I felt it was unnecessary to pre

    Vivian pov Most people were criticizing me for being ungrateful, calling me a country bumpkin who, despite spending three years as a lady in the Blackwood Family, couldn't shake off her bad habits.Samantha Carter , on the other hand, was gaining sympathy from the crowd thanks to a video that painted her in a better light.Lia Kelvin stood up for me, saying, "It's so frustrating! Samantha Carter is the real villain here, yet this blind and foolish crowd has elevated her to a pedestal. Just wait, I’m going to defend you!"I shrugged, unfazed. "Let them say what they want. I’m not losing anything. Besides, the higher Samantha climbs, the harder she’ll fall. I actually hope she climbs even higher."As we left the café, I accidentally bumped into a solid chest, my body instinctively leaning back. A warm hand steadied my waist. "Are your eyes just for decoration? How careless can you be?"I didn’t need to guess who it was; it was Dominic Blackwood . But remembering that he had just saved

    Vivian pov Samantha Carter was gasping for breath. Just as she was about to say something, the attending physician and medical staff pushed the door open. She immediately shouted for help, "Help! My sister is trying to kill me!""Vivian, calm down!"I suddenly kicked Samantha away, smirking, "Killing you would just dirty my hands."I had no intention of going that far; I just wanted to scare her a bit.But Samantha wasn’t convinced. She scrambled over to the medical staff, and only after confirming her safety did she start her performance."Doctor, please check on my sister! I think she’s been traumatized!"As she spoke, she casually tugged at her neck, revealing the marks left from a tight grip.The medical staff couldn’t help but think to themselves, how could two sisters be so different? One was cunning and ruthless, while the other was kind and innocent."We will conduct a thorough examination for Vivian," one of the staff members said as they approached.I quickly refused the ex

    Vivian pov I seemed to have grasped the last lifeline, suddenly wrapping my arms around him, kissing his face while sobbing uncontrollably. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to, Mommy really didn't. Can you give me a chance in the next life to be a good mom?"Dominic Blackwood thought I was dreaming about the child I had lost, and his heart ached painfully at the thought.It seemed that the memory of that child was my torment, preventing me from forgiving him.Dominic wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and then gently dried my palms with a soft towel.Even in my sleep, I couldn't help but frown.At that moment, the attending physician walked in respectfully. "Mr. Blackwood, fortunately, you brought her in on time. Vivian is no longer in serious danger; she just needs a few days of rest."It turned out he had misjudged the situation.Dominic's expression darkened further, his voice cold. "When she wakes up, don't tell her I was here."The doctor looked bewildered. Just a mome

    Vivian pov If Jimmy knew that I had died in such a tragic and humiliating way, he would surely be heartbroken.I could not die here!With the last remnants of my consciousness, I staggered toward the window...The flames grew larger, filling the room with chaos."Fire!"People immediately screamed and rushed toward the emergency exit, creating a scene of utter pandemonium.Outside, Dominic Blackwood was taking a breath of fresh air when he saw Marvis rushing out in a panic. He frowned and asked, "What's going on?""Cough, cough... The backstage suddenly caught fire. The firefighters will take some time to arrive, so we need to get out of this dangerous place quickly."Dominic's eyes suddenly turned red with concern. "Where is Vivian Carter?""She should have... already gotten out. The staff has their own exit.""I'm not asking for 'should have'!"Dominic turned and pushed through the crowd, determined to find me. Marvis grabbed his arm, saying, "Are you crazy? Right now, saving yours

The black spaghetti strap dress I wore accentuated my graceful figure, my skin as pale as snow. My hair was casually pinned up with a simple pearl hairpin, with a few strands softly

    Vivian pov I smiled and said, "Who hasn’t stumbled into a mess when they were young and naive? But no one wants to fall into the same mess twice." Dominic Blackwood's handsome face darkened, nearly dripping with anger. Did I really just compare him to a mess? A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he

    Vivian pov As I tried to get up, Dominic Blackwood tightened his grip around my waist and leaned in close to my ear, whispering, "If you want your senior brother to get a few slaps, just go ahead and distance yourself from me."
