Lahat ng Kabanata ng Wrong Contract With Mr. Hart: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

'I didn't get a chance to say this earlier. But I'm grateful that Bryan said that you were the one who helped convince Mr Hart that he was willing to be a partnership again.'Vivi had just eaten dinner in the hospital cafeteria after making sure Darren was asleep, and in the middle of her meal, she got a message from Lucas.Vivi put down her spoon and used both hands to answer Lucas' message. 'You don't need to thank me because I should be the one to apologize because it's of me that you have to go through all this. From now on, I'll try to make sure that Darren doesn't bother you just because of our past.'Vivi hadn't even had time to put her phone down on the table when Lucas replied quickly. It was a short message that gave Vivi a strange feeling when she read it.'I'm sorry. And thank you for everything.'Vivi didn't understand what the words 'sorry' and 'thank you' were for, but the more she thought about it, the stranger it made her feel. And when she imagined Lucas' face, which

"It's okay. This is the best decision."Sitting in one of the seats at the café across from the hospital, Vivi reassured herself as she fiddled with the wedding ring on her left finger. She hoped that remembering how Darren had given her that ring on their wedding day would reassure her that what she was about to do was indeed the right decision."Vivi."Vivi immediately raised her head when she heard someone call her name, and her lips immediately curled into a smile when she saw Lucas coming and filling the chair in front of her."It seems like you've gotten close to Bryan lately," Vivi commented after Lucas ordered a drink."He's helped my company a lot, so I try to maintain a good relationship with him," Lucas said. "So... What did you want to talk to me about?" he asked, not wanting to linger with Vivi, fearing that it would cause more problems for him and his company."This..." Vivi took something out of her bag and placed it on the table. Lucas looked at her in surprise when he

“Oh, finally! I'm glad to see someone I know!"Bryan, who had previously looked bored being stuck at a party with important people he didn't know, immediately seemed very happy when he saw Lucas."Thanks for inviting me to your party. And congratulations on your new position as CEO," Lucas said."I should say thank you. I wouldn't be in this position without your help," Bryan said.Bryan looked genuinely happy to finally find someone on the same frequency as him. But in the middle of his conversation with Lucas, Bryan's attention was distracted by the slight commotion in the luxurious ballroom that had been transformed into a party venue by the presence of Darren and Vivi."Wow, do they think they're celebrities? It's my party, but I'm not even greeted with that much excitement," Bryan said spitefully as he saw Darren getting a warm welcome from the guests while Vivi walked beside him, grabbing Darren's left arm and putting a sweet smile on her face."I'm sorry I didn't roll out the r

"Oh my God, Vivi... What happened to you?"Like Lucas, Bryan's first reaction to seeing Vivi's condition was shock. Bryan had seen her as a goddess the night before at his party, Darren had turned her into this miserable woman in just one night."I'm fine now, so you don't have to worry," Vivi said."What's fine? Look at you!" Bryan looked at Vivi's swollen and scarred face with concern. "Vivi, if Darren did this to you, you should report him to the police–“"No matter where I go for justice, I won't be able to beat someone like Darren. You know that," Vivi said, making Bryan sad because he realized what she said was true."How is Darren now?" asked Vivi."He's still furious, and his emotions are out of control,” Bryan replied. He took out a thick brown envelope and placed it before Vivi. "You can use this money for a while. Tell me what you need, and I'll give you more money–""No, Bryan. I don't want to ask you for money," Vivi refused and pushed the envelope away. "I have my own mo

"I fell in love with the only person who visited me in that apartment. My contract husband, who paid me to cover his secret relationship, I foolishly fell in love with him from the beginning of our marriage and was heartbroken the whole time." Vivi's explanation certainly surprised Lucas. All this time, he had been completely unaware of it. Whether it was because Vivi was very good at hiding it from him or because he was insensitive, Lucas didn't expect Vivi to have such feelings for him. When he thought about it now–about how often he talked about Freya or how he always praised her to Vivi–Lucas felt that he had become very cruel to Vivi. "I really don't know," Lucas said. He was filled with regret and guilt at the thought of how much pain Vivi had endured during their marriage because he had been completely insensitive to her feelings. "If I had known earlier, I would have–“ "I would have ruined everything." Vivi interrupted Lucas' speech with a faint smile. "I was paid to cover
