Bab 262: Vivian’s confusion

It was late when Christopher arrived home. He was somewhat taken aback when he saw Vivian in the hall.

She rose from the sofa as she saw him enter and walked over to him.

Christopher's initial astonishment quickly turned to concern as he asked, "Why are you still awake?"

"I wanted to hear how Eddie was doing," replied Vivian. Her voice was filled with worry.

Christopher's demeanor softened as he saw her anxious look.

"He is fine and will be discharged soon."

His expression turned solemn as he remembered how Eddie was angry with him. He knew Eddie would challenge their relationship and create trouble for them. He thought it was essential to let her know about it.

"Eddie knows about us," he said. "He is angry with me."

Vivian knew that Eddie would react this way. She hung her head down, fidgeting with her fingers.

"What did he say?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
