Millionaire In Love With Me

Chapter 278 Inviting Him to Dinner



The fact that Morris was blatantly grabbing her master from Vivian pissed her off enough.

But she was relieved that Houghton was willing to go with her to L City.

After all, Houghton had been alone in the mountains all these years, living alone as an old man, and even if he was a practitioner, she still feared that an accident may happen.

“Hahahaha … Morris is generous, unlike my disciple, she is stingy.” Houghton smiled and was in a good mood.

They talked for a while, and Houghton fell asleep because of the operation he had only just undergone.

Morris went to rent a companion bed and let Vivian lie in bed for a while while he kept watch.

Vivian still had insomnia until the latter part of the night, she fell asleep on the edge of the bed, guilty of sleepiness.

Morris moved to hold her gently, perhaps because the overly familiar scent gave her a sense of security.

Vivian did not awaken and allowed herself to lie asleep in his arms on the companion bed.

Morris tucked her in, and as soon as he turned around and walked over to the chair in the hospital bed, he realised that Houghton had woken up.

His cold face curled into a light smile, “Awake? It’s still early, you can sleep longer.”

“You like Vivian?”

Houghton couldn’t help but get right to the point and ask.

Morris was not surprised by his sudden question, but gave a slight sideways glance at the woman lying asleep on the bed and did not deny it, “Yes.”

“You’re straightforward. But liking my apprentice, you like the wrong person. She’s big-headed and knows nothing about relationships, so you’ll have to be more tolerant.”

Old people had less sleep.

Naturally, Houghton woke up early, not realising that he was in the presence of Vivian in his arms, carefully placing her on the bed with him, with such a gentle gesture of care that it was easy to see that he really meant it.

Only, he was the heir to the Cheal clan, and did they really have a future together?

Houghton was unsure.

“You are perceptive.” Morris pursed his lips in a helpless smile.

“I’m fine, you have some rest.” Houghton pointed to the bed, “That bed has had its bedding changed, you’ve been busy all night, how can you not rest?”

Morris didn’t refuse and nodded, before leaning back on the next bed for a short nap.

An hour later, when Morris woke up and saw that Vivian was still sleeping, he got up and went downstairs to get breakfast and toiletries.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

When he returned to the hospital, Mr and Mrs Mond were already in the ward and Vivian was up.

“Good morning, I bought breakfast, let’s have some together.” Morris had always been thorough in his work, and naturally, he had also considered Vivian’s parents when he bought breakfast.

“Morris, how can you be the one to do these things?” Jenny wrinkled her eyebrows and glanced obliquely at Vivian, “Morris is a guest, how can you let him do this?”

Vivian was folding the bedding when she was reprimanded by Jenny, she bristled and turned around, her sharp gaze shooting at Morris, “Yes, yes, yes, he is a guest, did you hear me? Don’t buy breakfast next time.”

“You damned girl, Morris treats you well and you have no conscience at all.”

Houghton leaning against the hospital bed followed suit and reprimanded her.

Vivian: “…”

‘What have I done wrong?’

“I couldn’t sleep, so I went down for a walk and just bought it on the way.” Morris explained.

They then had some breakfast and waited for the doctor to come and examine Houghton. The doctor said that all his symptoms were stable, and Vivian was then relieved.

After spending another day at the hospital, Vivian arranged care for Houghton and returned to L City with Morris.

With so much going on in L City, Vivian was more worried about Vinca E-Sports and the wedding company, so she could only go back early and then come over to pick up Houghton when he was discharged from hospital.

A few hours later, the car arrived at the wedding company.

Vivian knew that in the past two days, Morris had been busy and helped a lot, so she was a bit indebted in her heart, so she said, “I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.”

“Oh? I am flattered.” The man’s lips curved up in a curve.

“What are you thinking about? If it weren’t for my mother’s orders, I wouldn’t bother to invite you to dinner.” Vivian found an excuse and said perfunctorily.

She pushed open the car door and got out, closed it and went straight into the wedding office.

At the office, Vivian was busy from the morning until the afternoon, when she was able to deal with the work piled up on her hands.

Then she transferred 30, 000 to the car show owner.

She was scheduled to go to the open-air car show yesterday, but Houghton was hospitalised and delayed, so she paid 20, 000 to the other party in accordance with the previously agreed double liquidated damages.

This was a matter of principle.

It was a good thing she won some money at the Wansheng ski resort that day, otherwise she would have been heartbroken.

By the end of the evening, Morris’ car appeared in front of the wedding company on time.

The employees of the wedding shop were all talking when they saw Morris’ luxury car.

“Isn’t that Mr. Morris’ car?”

“It’s been rumoured outside that Mr. Morris has fallen out with our Miss Mond, but isn’t this still fine?”

“Then it must have been a falling out. Think about it, so many orders in our shop last month were cancelled overnight, wasn’t it all the handiwork of Mr. Morris alone? Who else would have been able to do that?”

“If they did fall out, what’s the situation now?”

“Who knows?”

“Alas, I can only say that rich people are capricious and domineering.”

Business was slow in the shop, and colleagues sat around idly gossiping.

At this time, Sophie, who was standing at the side, coughed a few times and cleared her throat. When those few employees who were gossiping turned around, they saw Vivian standing behind them.

Her gloomy face, even though the beauty of her stunning face was astounding, her cold gaze still brought a powerful sense of oppression, frightening them to the point where their heartstrings tightened and their faces turned whiter.

“Miss Mond.”

“Miss Mond, we … we …”

Caught talking about gossip on the spot, a few employees stammered and lowered their heads for a long time, not knowing what to say.

“Idle? If you have nothing to do, go print some advertisements and send out flyers.” Vivian lightly reprimanded, raised her eyes and swept the clock hanging on the wall, it was almost five o’clock, which was the closing time, “If you have nothing to do, go home early, if you think the closing time is too early, I will change the closing time to six o’clock.”

“No, no. Then, Miss Mond, I’ll leave first.”

“See you later, Miss Mond.”

“Bye bye Miss Mond.”

Several people immediately ran away to pack up and leave work.

Sophie, who was standing at the side, looked at the car leaning next to the wedding company and then cautiously asked Vivian, “Miss Mond, what’s the situation between you and Mr. Morris? Didn’t he target you at every turn before? Why are you still willing to deal with such a person?”

“In life, there is always a time when you are forced to do something. But where there is that strength, everyone is not willing to be false.”

Vivian sighed with emotion, “Let’s go.”

She carried her bag and walked out of the wedding office on her high heels.
