Chapter 790 - Tax Break!
Lilia looked to the side, noticing Vivi's red and swollen eyes, then suggested. "Do you want to stay at my house for two days?"
"Ah? Not this one?" Vivi was stunned and showed a confused expression on her face.
As if seeing her hesitation, Lilia smiled. "I'm home alone now, Jean is on a business trip and I'm lonely."
Vivi's eyes lit up sharply. "Really? I don't have a job right now. I'll go over to your house and consider it a vacation to relax!"
Lilia. "..."
Harold put on his coat and picked up the resume on the table. "Let's go together then."
"My car is already downstairs, you don't need to bother. You are busy with your business, I don't want to bother you!"
After hearing this, Harold didn't push anymore. When he handed the resume, he added, "I'll confirm the interview date later. Let's go, I want to come down and smoke!"
This group of three then left the studio. Unfortunately, in the parking lot downstairs, they met Ludwig who seemed to be waiting.
Vivi saw him without saying anything, holding the bamboo tree decoration in her arms, then turned angrily to leave.
"Vivi, wait…"
Lilia and Harold faced each other, helplessness appeared in each other's eyes.
Vivi stood still, her eyes staring straight ahead, then she looked at Ludwig and said flatly, "Since we broke up, return my car."
Just so that Ludwig wouldn't have any trouble going out to visit clients, Vivi let him use her car every day. Of course, it was Vivi who paid for the gas.
She thought that this attention could be exchanged for Ludwig's family's support, but instead of reaping what she deserved, Nadine felt that the sacrifice she had made was not big enough.
At this moment, when Vivi finished speaking, Ludwig's brows were filled with a painful struggle. He stepped forward and stood in front of her. "Vivi, can we talk about it?"
Vivi was silent for a few seconds, then shook her head tiredly. "There's nothing to talk about, I really can't accept this kind of situation from your family. I'm also an only child, and I've been loved by my parents since I was born. It doesn't make sense to talk about it. When I did what's best for my partner, I was beaten and scolded by your mother. There is nothing more to discuss, give me the car's key."
Ludwig didn't look like he wanted to let go of this relationship. He tried his best to make up for all of his mother's mistakes, but Vivi's decision was unanimous.
When Ludwig hesitantly handed over the key, Lilia, who was standing in the distance, clearly saw that the man's eyes were bloodshot.
Vivi pursed the corners of her mouth, looked at him deeply as she took the key, and got into the car without any reluctance.
This relationship… Even though it was only a few months, the two had taken it very seriously. Their breakup was not because they no longer loved each other, but rather a mother who was too cruel.
After getting into the car, Vivi bowed her head.
After Lilia said goodbye to Ludwig, she also got into the car.
Vivi cried again when she was already in the car.
She shoved the car's key into her bag, looked at the business license document she had taken, and said in a hoarse voice, "Why does it always hurt this much when we break up..."
After all, she likes him very much. Vivi is also a girl, so the feelings she felt during this breakup were very heart-wrenching.
Lilia sighed, turned her head and nodded to Dina. "Let's go!"
Dina answered and started the engine.
Lilia was by Vivi's side, calmly holding her hand to comfort her.
As the car drove out of the parking lot, she glanced outside the door of the building and saw Nadine pulling Ludwig, arguing about something with a bad face.
She shook her head indifferently, and withdrew her gaze without saying a word.
Back at Villa Lakeside, Vivi didn't forget to confirm before entering the door. "Lilia, are you sure Jean isn't home?"
She stood outside the entrance suspiciously and looked at the window. Even though she just broke up, she didn't want to interfere with the life of the young master of the Widjaya family.
Lilia saw her wrinkled brows, and pulled her arm. "Don't worry, it's still half a month before he returns! It's only been four days. If you don't believe it, come in and see!"
Lilia walked inside the door holding his bamboo ornament, then the person behind her hurriedly whispered, "The ornament is heavy, I better carry it."
The two entered the door and stood in the corridor, eyes wide open. Vivi subconsciously investigated the living room.
Except for the maids, she didn't see Jean's figure.
Lilia put the bamboo decoration on the table and pulled Vivi to the chair, then the maid brought two cups of warm tea in time.
She looked at Vivi while she held the cup, then smiled and said, "Do you know why I let you come to my house?"
Vivi lowered her head and took a sip from her glass. "Are you afraid they will go looking for me?"
Lilia patted her shoulder and smiled. "When a woman breaks up, of course her friends will ask for divorce taxes! You also haven't given me the 'tax', right?"
Vivi smiled. "Didn't I already buy you a meal at an Italian restaurant?"
The two then laughed out loud.
Vivi suddenly fell silent and said, "Actually, my parents were very satisfied with him after they met Ludwig…. Oh well! I'd better forget him for now! There's no point in thinking like that now. Let me use your computer, I want to try applying for some jobs!"
Vivi forced the sadness she was feeling into the depths of her heart.
The burning pain in her cheek still reminded her how ironic it was when she was slapped by Nadine earlier.
When Lilia saw her reach out to caress her cheek, she asked the maid in the living room, "Is there ice in the fridge?"
The maid nodded respectfully. "I'll get it for you!"
...
With Vivi accompanying her, Lilia felt less bored.
This afternoon, the two of them sat in the living room, one looking at the resume in her hand, and the other using the computer to look for job vacations online.
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Vivi leaned sadly on the sofa and said somberly, "I've sent over 20 resumes, I don't know if anyone will invite me for an interview!"
Lilia wiped the corner of her eye and put her hand down. "Actually, I have a suggestion, do you want to listen to it?"
"What advice?" Vivi straightened up, with curiosity etched in her bright eyes.
Lilia narrowed her eyes at her with a serious expression. "Have you ever considered working at my company?"
"Hah?" Vivi was surprised. "Your company has nothing to do with my work experience, right?!"
Lilia turned to her. "Degree is nothing but a proof, while for work experience, you can earn it as you work. After all, don't you do financial data analysis at your home company? Your experience is actually more than sufficient."
Vivi was clearly not confident, she bit the corner of her mouth, and muttered, "Gaia is in the entertainment industry, I have never set foot in that industry. I don't know... whether I can or not!"
"Lilia Studio is actually under the auspices of Gaia. Usually, there is a lot of data between two companies that need to be transferred to each other.. I think you can try, and if it doesn't work, you can consider another company. What do you think?"
