Helena put the matter to rest. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“Fine, then. Forget about her. Let’s see how she makes a fool out of herself at the ceremony. Go spread the word and warn everybody against becoming her model.”

“Noted, Ms. Helena,” her classmate acknowledged before leaving.

Meanwhile, at the store, Vivian was very quick in finding all the things that she needed.

“Shall we head back, Dwayne?”

“Don’t you want to have something to eat?” he asked upon noticing a desserts shop nearby.

Hmm… Food…

As a foodie, Vivian started salivating upon hearing the magic word.

Then, Dwayne, who claimed to be busy earlier on, brought her to the desserts shop and ordered a large sundae for her.

“Is it yummy?”

“Yes!” She nodded.

There was a sparkle in her eyes that made Dwayne chuckle too.

Upon seeing a dollop of cream sitting delicately atop her upper lip, he could not resist the urge to wipe it off for her using a napkin.

His sudden action surprised Vivian.

At that moment, she felt a cold chill down her spine as if someone was watching her outside of the shop. Instinctively, she dodged his hand swiftly.

“Um… I can do it myself.”

She put the sundae cup down and wiped off the remaining cream on her lip.

The atmosphere between them turned slightly awkward.

Soon, Dwayne saw that she had bought some pearls. So, he assumed that she was going to craft a necklace. Hence, he got the ball rolling and started another topic.

“Are you going to make any accessories? Do you need any tools? If you’re using pearls to complement the clothes, don’t you think it’s better to hide the chain?”

“Hmm?” Vivian immediately paid close attention to his words.

“I think it’s a great idea to use premium fishing line instead. This way, it can showcase the pearls and make them stand out.”

“I concur with you. If you need it, I do have some fishing lines at home.” Dwayne extended an invitation subtly.

Vivian was taken aback by his keenness to help out.

Going to the house of a senior? It doesn’t seem appropriate, does it? However, the fishing line would be the cherry on the cake.

Right when she was debating from within, her phone rang and interrupted her train of thoughts.

“Hello?”

“Vivi, why aren’t you back yet? I received a message stating that the teachers are coming soon for a spot check. Come back quick, or you’re going to be punished,” Sonia urged.

At that instant, Vivian could not be bothered about other things anymore. She picked up her pearls and was ready to leave.

“Dwayne, I’ve got to go. The teachers are patrolling around, and I can’t afford to be absent.” She dashed out of the shop after giving him a brief explanation.

By the time Dwayne came out, she had already hailed a cab and left.

Feeling helpless, he entered his car.

When he was about to drive out of the parking lot, he saw a suspicious figure in a blue hoodie from his rear mirror. The person even pulled down his cap to cover his face. Am I seeing things?

The slender and upright silhouette was around 1.6 meters tall, seemingly a young guy.

He exuded a cold and hostile aura despite being a distance away.

That’s so weird.

Frowning, Dwayne drove off.

Two days later, it was the graduation ceremony.

In the end, Vivian did not invite Solomon and Ichika to be present because she did not want to trouble them.

They have been faithfully looking after the three of us all these years when Mommy was busy taking care of Daddy. I shall give them a break. After all, Aunt Ichika has a three-year-old toddler with her too.

Vivian took out her baniere and was ready to contact her model.

“Hi senior, as per our discussion, you’re modeling for me today. May I know what time you’ll be here?”

“Oh, uh… I’m sorry, but I’m not available anymore.”

That was not the answer Vivian was expecting.

Sheer anxiety washed over her.

Oh no, what should I do now? I don’t even have a model. The event is about to commence. Where can I find an Astorian model?

Just as her consternation pushed her to the verge of tears, Sonia assured her, “Don’t panic, Vivi. I’ll help you look for one now. Rest assured that we’ll be able to find a model for your outfit.”

Then, she led several of Vivian’s good classmates to search for a model.

Unfortunately, their efforts were all in vain. After going around the entire school for half an hour, they could not find a single Astorian. Meanwhile, Helena was all set to go on stage with her model.

Vivian fretted in despair.

Looking at the baniere that she had designed, tears started streaming down her face. It had been a long while since she last shed a tear.

“What’s wrong, Vivian? Is there anything I can help you with?” A soothing male voice rang out in her ears.

Sonia turned and was delighted to see their senior. “Dwayne! He’s here, Vivi. We can ask him for help.”
