"What do you mean?" Aaron asked, looking nervously at the person beside him.
Sylvia Young smirked, her body slowly leaning closer to Aaron. "I mean, I want to take her place and become the Third Imperial Concubine!"
After Ashley Bowen hung up on her, Vivian Lee wandered the streets like a lost soul. She didn't want to go back to school, but she had nowhere else to go.
She walked until she grew tired and simply sat down on a bench by the road.
Watching the pedestrians dwindle and the city lights slowly go out, she hugged herself, shivering uncontrollably from the cold.
Suddenly, just as she was drifting off, feeling like she was about to pass out, a wave of warmth came from behind her as a jacket was draped over her shoulders.
She looked up. When Aaron's face came into view, she managed a faint smile before losing consciousness and collapsing.
"Vivian!"
The last thing she heard was Aaron's frantic shout.
