Gale had some influence in Russia and knew that Ray was in search of Vivian.
Hence, when he was reporting Luca's whereabouts, he reported about Vivian as well.
However, Luke did not immediately tell Ray about it. After all, it was Ray's family issue. Previously, Ray did not talk
much about that incident, so Luke did not think that he should comment too much about it either.
Ray believed in what Luke said, and neither would Luke lie to Ray. Hence, Luke immediately made a call to his
subordinates. He got them to head over to Ostin Hotel to look for Vivian.
"I didn't expect you to once again do me a big favor," Ray expressed his gratitude.
"My subordinate just happened to bump into her." Luke did not claim all the credit. If Ray really wanted to thank
someone, it would have to be Luca.
If it were not for Luca being nearby, she would not have bumped into Vivian.
He recalled that even in the past, Bianca was never bothered about Vivian's ugly appearance. She even treated
Vivian with warmth and gentleness.
"No matter what, you've done me a big favor. At the very least, I'm able to find her before any other underworld
organization. If she had been kidnapped, the consequences would be awful. As a token of gratitude, this document
is for you." Ray took out a document from the drawer of the coffee table and passed it to Luke.
He had received it in the afternoon.
Luke accepted it and opened it to read the content. He lifted his brows.
"I guess that this document would be much more useful to you," said Ray. He was rather relieved once he got to
know Vivian's whereabouts.
"Indeed. Thanks a lot." Luke smirked. 'Perhaps he wanted to look for me just to pass this document to me. This
document came to me just in time.'
"As long as I'm able to help you out." Ray inched forth a little and poured the tea that had just been brewed into two
teacups. "Now that you can't drink wine, let's drink tea instead. Cheers."
Luke took the teacup that Ray passed to him and gently clinked it against Ray's teacup.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis time, Ray had done him a huge favor.
While Vivian was asleep, she vaguely heard that someone was ringing the doorbell. She slowly opened her eyes and
realized that there was really someone ringing the doorbell.
She sat up and looked at the clock.
It was already nighttime.
After taking Luca's pill, she fell deep asleep like someone who had not slept for a very long time. If it were not for
the doorbell, she might have even slept through the entire night.
'The pill's effect is much better than any sleeping pills sold on the market.'
The doorbell rang once again, and Vivian put her guard up. She slowly walked to the door. She took a glimpse
through the peephole.
She was worried it might be the man from earlier today.
However, the person standing outside was wearing a hotel attendant's uniform. He was standing before the door
and did not evade the peephole's visual range. Hence, Vivian could see him clearly.
"Who is it?" She did not open the door instantly. Even though the person outside was wearing an attendant's
uniform, he might be an impostor.
"I'm from the housekeeping department of the hotel. I'm here to deliver your meal to you," the man at the door
said.
"I didn't order any food." Vivian's guard was still up.
"It was your friend who ordered it on your behalf. We have the conversation record. Miss, please open the door,"
the attendant explained.
'Could it be Luca? Perhaps she left instructions to the receptionist before she left?'
Vivian kept looking through the peephole. Apart from the shadow of the hotel attendant, there were no other
people. Hence, she opened the door.
She revealed half of her body and said to the attendant, "You can just hand me the food."
"Alright, Miss." The attendant pushed the meal cart to the front of the door when he noticed she was being alert.
Vivian placed one of her hands on the meal cart. When she noticed that the attendant was not intending to leave,
she asked, "Anything else?"
"Miss, you have yet to return the meal cart from the time you ordered room service earlier today,” the attendant
reminded.
Vivian was still determined not to let him into the room. "Once I'm done eating, I'll put it in the corridor."
After saying it, she pushed the meal cart into the room and locked the door.
The attendant looked at the man who was standing in the doorway.
The man made a gesture.
The attendant nodded and passed him the duplicated access card. Then, he left silently.
The man was not in a hurry to open the door and just leaned on the corridor. He looked at the time and placed both
his hands before his chest, not taking a step further.
Vivian looked at the desserts in the meal cart, but she did not have any appetite.
She recalled what Luca said and sighed. Her emotions were much better after she slept. Even though she still
missed Gordan and might even be sad, she felt much more comfortable.
'Perhaps I should eat and sleep on time. It's just a divorce. I'm only losing Gordan's insincere company. After all, I
never once truly got the man.'
Time would always wash everything away, including her unwillingness to leave Gordan.
Vivian was thinking about it while eating the dessert.
When she was almost done eating, she felt even drowsier.
"Luca's pill is so strong..." Vivian said as she lay on the sofa.
After 15 minutes, Vivian's door was opened. The man in the corridor entered.
He looked at Vivian who had collapsed on the sofa and went over. Without speaking a word, he carried her and left
the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter an hour, Vivian woke up and looked at the ceiling while blinking her eyes.
The next second, she noticed that she was not in the hotel. She was so terrified that she sat up. After looking at the
familiar environment, she calmed down.
This was Ray's home, which was her house in the past. It was her old bedroom.
"You've woken up?" Ray pushed the door opened and came in. He had a dark expression when he saw Vivian.
Vivian noticed his expression was awful and felt guilty. Hence, she said, "You got someone to bring me back?"
"If it were another person, you wouldn't be here now." Looking at Vivian's sad expression, Ray could not bring
himself to lecture her no matter how angry he was.
It was not her fault that she fell in love with the wrong person.
All of the fault laid on Gordan!
"I'm sorry, Ray. I didn't give it much thought. I just wanted to hide and heal," Vivian admitted her mistake. Without
needing to ask, she knew that Ray already knew everything.
"It's very dangerous for you to be outside there alone. Besides, I told you back when you moved out that this place
will always be your home. If you're not happy, you can come back here anytime you want. Home is the place where
you heal, not the hotel." Ray did not mention a word about Gordan as she was currently very sad.
Mentioning that man would only make her sadder.
Vivian nodded. She was not mad at him for bringing her back home. She just felt aggrieved when she saw Ray.
Back then, Ray had warned her that Gordan was not suitable for her.
However, she was stubborn.
Even so, Ray did not blame it on her.
"My men have been searching for you the entire day and night. It took them great effort to find you at the hotel.
They were afraid that you wouldn't want to come back, so they got someone else to drug you. This drug has side
effects, so you have to drink lots of water to get the remnants out of your body,"
Ray reminded her. He placed the kettle and cup, that were placed on the dressing table by the maid, at the front of
her bed.
