Sterling Mansion,
Lucien lounged on his comfortable couch, sipping his morning coffee after breakfast, lost in thought. He couldn't help but wonder about Vivienne, his wife who had recently left for a business trip.
Simran, their housekeeper, gracefully wiped the table and fetched a glass of water, placing it on the table with a gentle clink.
"Hmmm! I think her mood was a little sour. Perhaps this trip will do her good," Simran said, her thoughtful gaze meeting Lucien's.
Lucien sighed inwardly, feeling a pang of concern. He had noticed Vivienne's mood being off lately, and he hoped that the business trip would help her unwind.
He realized that he had never given her a gift before, but Olivia, his close friend, and his employee, had suggested it, and he had taken her advice to heart.
"Well, let's hope so. By the way, when is she coming back?" Lucien asked, realizing he had no idea about Vivienne's return date.
