(Vivian's POV)

I paused for a moment, blinking rapidly at him. I knew that face. It was the same man I had bumped into yesterday when I ran out of Ronald's office.

He had looked worried about me and had asked if I was okay.

I hadn't gotten a proper look at him then, but I remembered that he had looked smart in his sharp, tailored suit, almost like some powerful CEO.

Now, he looked completely different. His hair was messy, his body was covered in sweat, and his suit was completely rumpled, a

  • Keep Your Ring, Mr. Haverford   Chapter 27: A Lunch with Dominic

    (Vivian’s POV)The restaurant Dominic had chosen was elegant and quiet, with soft music playing in the background. Large windows overlooked the busy streets, while the waiters moved between tables, attending to the guests.I sat opposite Dominic, studying the menu the waiter had handed us.I had initially thought lunch would be awkward, considering we barely knew each other. However, Dominic had made the conversation easier than I expected.He wasn't as intimidating as he had been during the meeting earlier. In fact, he seemed more relaxed, occasionally smiling as we talked.After placing our orders, I finally remembered what I had wanted to ask him earlier."How is the boy doing?" I asked.Dominic looked up from his glass of water. "He's doing much better."A smile spread across my face. "That's good to hear. I was really worried about him.""He has recovered quite well. The doctors said there's nothing serious to worry about anymore.""That's a relief," I said, letting out a deep br

  • Keep Your Ring, Mr. Haverford   Chapter 26: A Favor Returned II

    (Vivian's POV)The room fell silent.My eyes widened, and my jaw dropped. I couldn't hide my surprise.His words were clear. Dominic had just declared that he was no longer willing to continue the partnership with them."Actually..." Mr. Ben stuttered as he adjusted his glasses, a bead of sweat forming on his forehead."We... haven't made a final decision yet," he said.I almost laughed.Wasn't he the same man who had dismissed my proposal earlier? And now, all of a sudden, he hadn't made a decision?I understood his reaction perfectly.The Carroway Group was a large and influential company. Cutting ties with them didn't just mean losing a partnership. It could also mean losing opportunities to work with many other companies. It was almost like being blacklisted. That was why so many people wouldn't dare to cross them.Mr. Ben picked up the proposal again and began examining it, this time more carefully.Dominic remained quiet in his seat, his gaze fixed on me. I met his eyes, still

  • Keep Your Ring, Mr. Haverford   Chapter 25: A Favor Returned I

    (Vivian's POV)I stared at Dominic Carroway for a moment, genuinely surprised. What the hell was he doing here?Of all the people I expected to meet at my first client meeting, he was the last person who came to mind. I hadn't even expected our paths to cross again, let alone so soon.Judging by his presence, could he really be connected to the Carroway Group?I quickly composed myself and walked toward the table."Good afternoon, gentlemen," I greeted them politely."Good afternoon, Miss Sterling," one of the men replied, gesturing toward the empty chair opposite them. "Please, have a seat."I nodded and sat down, placing my handbag beside me before arranging the documents in front of me.Although I was still surprised to see Dominic, I reminded myself why I was there.This was an important meeting for Sterling Group, and I couldn't afford to mess it up."Thank you for honouring this meeting, Miss Sterling," Mr. Ben, the man who had greeted me earlier, said."However, we've already r

  • Keep Your Ring, Mr. Haverford   Chapter 24: A Test of Leadership II

    (Vivian's POV)There it was.The real reason behind all the criticism.I looked around the room and noticed how everyone seemed to quietly agree with him, even though none of them openly supported him.Suddenly, it no longer felt like I was in a meeting. It felt as though I was surrounded by people who had already talked about me behind my back several times and formed their own opinions about me.Maybe they thought I had been given my position simply because of my last name and didn't believe I was capable of managing them.Or perhaps the news about my failed wedding had made them think I was too distracted by my personal life to handle my responsibilities.Whatever their reasons were, I wasn't going to argue with them or get angry over their disrespect. Doing so would only make them think I couldn't control my team or earn their respect.I needed to prove myself through my work and effort while gaining their trust and support.I took a deep breath and leaned back in my chair."I und

  • Keep Your Ring, Mr. Haverford   Chapter 23: A Test of Leadership I

    (Vivian's POV)Three days had passed since the wedding incident with Ronald, but the news was still making rounds on the internet.Every time I opened my social media accounts, I came across another post about the failed wedding.Some people were still calling me names, while others claimed I had deliberately embarrassed Ronald because I wanted to be with another man.It was exhausting.I had already explained what happened, and I wasn't going to keep defending myself against people who had no idea what had gone on between Ronald and me.Besides, I had more important things to worry about.Like getting my life back on track.For the past few days, I had spent most of my time at home, trying to recover from everything that had happened.But hiding away wouldn't solve anything. I had responsibilities to attend to, and the first was at Sterling Group.I had no intention of allowing people's harsh criticism of my failed relationship to distract me from the work I needed to do.So, I took

  • Keep Your Ring, Mr. Haverford   Chapter 22: The Internet's New Villain

    (Vivian's POV)"Regret it?" I scoffed bitterly under my breath. "Not a chance."If there was anything to regret, it was letting him into my life in the first place. It was loving him blindly and foolishly believing he would never hurt me.I watched him leave, but instead of feeling sad, I felt strangely at peace.The man I had once imagined spending the rest of my life with had just walked out of my bedroom, yet I had no desire to call him back."Finally." I let out a long breath the moment he was gone and sank back onto the bed.I pressed my fingers against my forehead, trying to calm myself down.My head had been spinning since morning, and the argument had only made it worse."Susan, could you prepare some soup as soon as possible?" I asked quietly.My head felt as though it might snap off my neck at any moment, and I needed some warm soup to help ease the headache."Right away, miss," Susan replied, snapping out of her temporary shock.She had been truly surprised by everything th
