Ethan instinctively nodded, but his gaze never left Vivian.
All along, he'd thought of Vivian as small, delicate, and in need of protection, even though at times she could be a bit reckless, she was at most a bold and adorable girl.
But until now, he hadn't realized that she could also be dashing, carefree, and rebellious. When she stood on the contest field with confidence and dazzling light in her eyes, his heart felt like it had fallen into an endless sea, helplessly sinking.
"Ahhh!! Vivian, you're amazing!!"
"Ahhh—!! Vivian, you're the best!!"
"Vivian, Vivian, I love you like a mouse loves rice!!"
Tanya, Victoria, and Megan, sitting beside Liam, couldn't help but stand up one by one and shout loudly towards Vivian upon seeing her scores.
