Chapter 105 Rope

Vivienne knew better than anyone that Rebecca had waited six long years for Richard to come back.

But even if she waited ten times that, she'd never see Alistair

return.

Alistair had always kept his distance from Rebecca's domineering ways, and now, with a perfect wife by his side, it was clear he'd moved on for good.

When Rebecca had mentioned it over the phone, Vivienne had brushed it off as jealousy, thinking Rebecca was reading too much into things. But seeing it with her own eyes? It was real.

Vivienne was stunned.

It hasn't been that long since Alistair left Rebecca, and already... Well, good for him.

She masked her surprise and turned to Caroline with a polite

smile.

"Hi, I'm Vivienne Everett, Alistair's..."

She trailed off, unsure how to finish.

What do I even say? His ex-wife's former best friend? Thats a

mouthful.

But "friend"? That doesn't feel right either.

Caroline smoothly picked up the conversation. "I've heard about

you."

Vivienne glanced at Alistair, surprised and a little flattered.

She hadn't expected him to mention her to his wife.

She wondered how he'd described her.

In her mind, Alistair had always avoided anything related to Rebecca, so, for her, Rebecca's former best friend, this was unexpected.

"Thank you for standing up for my husband back then," Caroline

added.

Vivienne blinked, caught off guard.

So, he framed me as someone who helped him out? A good Samaritan, I guess. Not quite a savior.

"Oh, it was nothing. I just said what needed to be said," Vivienne said, a little embarrassed.
