Villain Ch 631. Scared Of Disappointment
"Yes," said Vivian. A grin spread across her face, mischief dancing in her eyes. Her hand tightened around his, and there was an unspoken reassurance in that grip.
"Sorry for keeping it a secret from you, Allen," she said, her tone playful yet sincere.

We couldn't let it pass without a little celebration. You just found your new family, and we're not about to let you spend it alone."
Vivian's words hit Allen like a wave of warmth. He couldn't deny that his default mode was to be as independent as possible, and he had a knack for pushing things to the weekend. He'd probably have brushed off the significance of this day if left to his own devices.
