Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Why was it him? Vivian’s face was pale. She never expected to see him in the Jackson’s. “What’s wrong?” Earl asked with concern. From the way he spoke, one could see that he liked her very much. “Nothing. I was just scared. ” Vivian forced a smile. Earl was now convinced that she was really scared by Eric’s scream. “He’s my brother. He is no longer a child, but he is still so naughty,” Earl explained to her. Then he stretched out his hand and entwined his fingers with hers, took her to meet everyone. “Welcome! Welcome!” Before they could stand firm, Freda greeted them warmly. “Hello, everyone. I’m Vivian Land. I’m very happy to come here. ” Vivian nodded slightly after she finished her words. “She has good manners!” Freda thought. The girl left a good impression on her. “Then, I will call you Vivian. Would you mind?” Freda asked friendly. For no reason, she just liked this girl very much. “Of course not. I should thank you for being so kind to me,” Vivian said as she secretly glanced at Eric. She was worried that he would take the initiative to talk to her. Evelyn jabbed Eric with her elbow, reminding him to look right, where her ex-girlfriend was stealing glances at him. Eric took the chance to grab Evelyn’s hand and intertwined his fingers with hers. The move was sudden but it was his very first reaction at that moment. “This is my younger brother Eric, and this is his wife, Evelyn. ” Finally came the turn for Earl to introduce the couple. “What? I can’t believe he is married!” Vivian exclaimed inwardly. She could feel her palms sweat. She was very worried about his next move. Yet, she still flashed a smile and said to them, “Hello!” “Hello!” Evelyn replied, with a touch of ridicule. Her tone was playful and arrogant. Eric just nodded slightly, as if it was the first time they had met. Seeing this, Vivian heaved a sigh of relief. Earl mistook it that she felt upset about Eric’s cold reaction, so he immediately offered his consolation. “Never mind. He’s always like this. Vivian nodded and said, “No, I won’t mind. “She’s still so pretentious!” Earl thought. He said nothing, fiddling with Evelyn’s fingers. Suddenly, it occurred to him that something was missing from Evelyn’s fingers. Then he remembered it was the ring. “Da mn it! Why did I forget it?” he cursed in his heart. “Let’s go to the pavilion over there. We can have a barbecue out there tonight,” Karlo, the master of the house, suggested. “Yes, Vivian. I heard from Earl that you like barbecue very much, so we specially prepared the barbecue for you. ” Freda said.

Then thank you for your consideration. It must have caused you much trouble. ” Vivian felt flattered. She was wreathed in smiles. Evelyn frowned. She had noticed that the ser vants had been busy doing something over the pavilion the whole afternoon. It turned out they were preparing for a barbecue. The Jackson family had done so much to welcome and please Vivian. When thinking about how she was received when she first came to the Jackson’s, she thought it very unfair. She was severely scolded that day. Chapter 36 As the saying went, “Blood is thicker than water. ” She figured that was why they were treated so differently. However, she didn’t mind. As long as they did not ruffle her feathers, they could do whatever they liked. “Trouble? What are you talking about? We are going to be family soon. ” As long as Freda finished her words, she took Vivian by her arm and took her to the pavilion. Evelyn felt nothing about their intimate gesture.
