Vivian's cold eyes bore into Charlotte as she broke the silence. "You're Charlotte, right?"
Charlotte hesitated before answering, "Yes… and you are?"
Vivian gave her a slow, disdainful once-over, her lips curling into a faint sneer.
"I'm Vivian. Ethan Grayson's real fiancée."
The words hit Charlotte like a jolt of electricity, leaving her momentarily speechless. Behind her, Lena gasped audibly, her wide eyes darting between the two women.
"Wait, what?" Lena finally blurted, stepping forward. "You're his what?"
Vivian crossed her arms and smirked.
"You heard me... I'm his actual fiancée. I'm only here to talk, so let's not make this more dramatic than it needs to be."
Charlotte's mind reeled, recalling the call Ethan had ignored the previous night while the name "Vivian" had flashed on his screen.
'Could this woman be telling the truth?' She wondered.
