Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1538

Chapter 1538 Someone Likes Her

The graduation that Vivian was referring to was merely a ceremony that marked the end of her junior high school. According to the education system in Yartran, the sixteen-year-old girl would enter high school in the following semester.

Hence, it was customary for schools to hold a ceremony for their students at that juncture.

Vivian was ready with her graduation artwork when Sonia approached her.

The latter was so impressed that she kept gawking at her baniere.

“Wow, Vivi! Is this your masterpiece for the graduation ceremony? It’s so gorgeous. Is it a traditional costume?” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes!”

Vivian was all smiles when her best friend sang praises to her.

Her work was inspired by an old photo where she saw her great-grandmother wearing a baniere for the first time in her life.

She was glad to finally have the opportunity to design one on her own after so many years.

Pure admiration and adoration were written all over Sonia’s face as she admired the grand costume closely.

Moments later, her expression changed into a worried look.

“Vivi, although this is a wonderful showpiece, the principal mentioned that the winning entry will be worn by Lady Adalyn. But, yours…”

Oh, that’s right. The day of our graduation is also Lady Adalyn’s birthday.

As one of the shareholders of the academy, Adalyn had announced that she would wear the winning piece to her birthday party in order to motivate the students.

No doubt, it was an honorable gesture to the school and its students. However, Vivian felt indifferent about it.

“It’s not a big deal. Lady Adalyn has always been very open-minded and fair in her judgment. So, if I win, rest assured that she’ll like my cultural costume as much as I do.”

Vivian was very confident in herself, leaving Sonia speechless.

After keeping her artwork, she planned to buy some pearls to make a necklace. A pearl necklace will accentuate the model’s neckline and complement the costume.

While she was on her way to the shop, she ran into an acquaintance.

“Yo, Vivian. Doing some last-minute shopping?” the person mocked, thinking that Vivian was getting some materials at the eleventh hour to finish her design.

The person was none other than Helena, her rival.

She was a bully three years ago but stopped her despicable acts when Sebastian visited the school. Ever since Sebastian was in a coma, she started showing her true colors again.

Though she did not dare to take action against Vivian, she had never stopped pestering her in different ways.

Helena was also Vivian’s biggest opponent in the competition.

Refusing to engage in a fight with Helena, Vivian pursed her lips, ready to storm off.

Her actions angered Helena, who then blocked her way out. The latter wanted to find out more about Vivian’s submitting entry.

Right then, a tall hunk with a handsome face appeared.

“Vivian, where are you going?”

It was Dwayne, the most talented student in the academy. He was also regarded as the heartthrob of many girls at school.

Helena’s face darkened while Vivian stopped in her tracks, gazing at the approaching figure.

“I was about to go purchase some materials. Anything, Dwayne?” she answered softly and politely.

Upon hearing so, his deep blue eyes arched into a crescent. “May I accompany you?”

Vivian was totally baffled. “Huh?”

Helena darted over and chimed in, “Me too, Dwayne. I need to get a few items. Can you come along with me?”

She wanted to trail behind Dwayne so badly as he was the most eye-catching person in the entire school.

Not only had he achieved academic excellence, but he was also born with a silver spoon. Apparently, his family owned the largest corporation in the city.

That was precisely why even the rich man’s daughter, Helena, would want to get his attention.

However, Dwayne did not seem to be interested in her.

His gaze was fixated on the Astorian girl with long, black hair and a well-defined oval-shaped face.

“No, I’m busy. Let’s get into my car, Vivian. This will save us some time.”

“Um… All right, then,” Vivian agreed.

Subsequently, the two of them left the school, leaving behind Helena, who had turned green with envy.

Vivian, d*mn you!

“Don’t be mad, Ms. Helena. I accidentally saw Vivian’s work today. It’s actually the traditional costume of her home country, the baniere. Hmph! I doubt Lady Adalyn will put it on even if she wins.”

“Are you sure?” Helena’s eyes lit up.

If that’s the case, then there’s nothing for me to worry about. Lady Adalyn is a close family friend. I’m quite certain that she won’t be interested in wearing that.
