”
Before stepping out, Vivian was exceptionally nervous.
“Ceci, how do I look?”
Vivian had a great foundation, with almond–shaped eyes and an oval face. She was gentle and undeniably adorable.
“Very beautiful.”
“That’s good to know. You know, the mere thought of seeing him makes me incredibly nervous and excited. I’m really afraid he’d reject me…
“He won’t,” Cecilia comforted her. “Our Vivian is so beautiful, how could anyone possibly reject you?”
Vivian nodded.
After watching her leave, Cecilia returned to her room.
“Mommy.”
Jonathan had woken up.
“Did we wake you?” Cecilia crouched down to ask.
In the wee hours of the morning, around three or four o’clock, Vivian began to tidy up and get dressed.
Jonathan didn’t respond, instead he asked, “Mommy, is Mr. Ernest, the one Ms. Kennedy wishes to meet, a good person?”
After some thought, Cecilia said, “Yes, for Ms. Kennedy, he is indeed a wonderful
person.”
She recalled the time in college when she had once encountered Ernest.
Ernest was considered the heartthrob of their class, incredibly handsome. Unfortunately, his family circumstances were far from ideal.
Vivian and Ernest were together, a couple that seemed particularly well–matched at first glance. It was just a pity that their family backgrounds were worlds apart.
“Mommy, do you think Mr. Reese is good for you?”

Cecilia was startled once again.
Watching her son’s face, a smaller version of Nathaniel’s, filled with serious concentration, Cecilia was at a loss for words.
After a long while, she reached up and affectionately ruffled her son’s hair.
“Didn’t you ask me to go on a blind date last night?”
Jonathan sighed. “I’ve calculated the odds. The probability of you successfully finding a partner is one in a trillion.”
Cecilia burst into laughter.
“You fool.”
Jonathan’s face flushed red. “Mommy, you need to be serious. Even though the chances are slim, there’s still hope.”
“Today, I’ll accompany you on your inspection,” Jonathan declared, allowing no room for argument.
It was the first time Cecilia had faced such a situation. She was standing in for her best friend. on a blind date and had even brought her own son along.
The nanny was off today, and Cecilia was uneasy about leaving Jonathan alone in the house.
Hence, she had him and Sven stay close, cautiously trailing behind her.
Vivian only handed over a business card, along with the address of the agreed meeting place.
Cecilia didn’t bother much with grooming. She simply put on a mask and stepped out the door.
At Imperial Garden, an upscale, custom–designed private restaurant, Cecilia was just about to eriter when an elegantly dressed socialite stormed out, radiating anger from every pore.
“Who does he think he is? No manners at all. Does he really think he’s some kind of prince? How dare he switch to a new blind date candidate every ten minutes?”
