“Vivienne, it’s lunchtime. How about treat you to a meal?” ” Clara said.

Before Vivienne could respond, Clara continued, “I’ve been wanting to treat you for a meal. You’ve always been busy. If I don’t do it now, I’ll feel guilty.”

“Clara, I’m sorry, I can’t have lunch with you today. I’ve already informed my nanny to prepare my meal,” Vivienne replied.

Clara looked disappointed, but Vivienne suddenly suggested, “If you don’t mind, you can come to my place for lunch. We have many people at home, and the atmosphere is pleasant.”

Including the Ellington family of four, occasionally Leopold, and members of the Hawthorn family, there were at least nine people at every meal.

“I can come?” Clara’s eyes lit up.

She found her days boring, and she got along well with Vivienne. The location of the meal didn’t matter as long as she had company.

“Of course,” Vivienne said with a smile. “Clara, would you like to come with us, or should you have the driver drop you off?”

She noticed a private car not far away. It belonged to the Redwood family; she had seen it at the hospital before.

Clara then noticed Percival. “Who is he?” she asked.

“He’s my fiancé, Percival.”
