My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1879

Vivian stepped into the room, her eyes immediately drawn to the stunning antiques displayed around her. She couldn't help but gasp in awe.

Manfred's body suddenly stiffened, a fire igniting in his eyes. The noise of the conversation around him turned into a dull hum in his ears, and all he could hear was the voice that had been on his mind for the past two years.

Vivian's eyes sparkled as she walked toward an emerald-carved orchids. She observed it carefully. The quality of the emerald was truly extraordinary.

Such clarity and color couldn't be found in any modern emerald.

"It's stunning!" she whispered to herself.

Since she was young, Vivian had learned how to identify antiques from Skylar, and she could immediately tell that the orchids before her were incredibly valuable.

Her exclamation made Manfred abruptly turn around.

When he saw Vivian dressed in a period costume, his body froze. For a moment, he thought the scene in front of him was another illusion.

"Manfred?"

Geneva noticed Manfred's sudden, distracted gaze and immediately grew concerned.

"Manfred?" Glen also noticed something unusual.

Since his return to Vlario, he had never seen him look so startled. He couldn't understand why he was suddenly acting this way.

Vivian sensed the change in the room's atmosphere. She could feel someone looking at her, and she panicked. She wondered if the people in the room could see her now, but that seemed impossible.

After a moment of hesitation, she gathered her courage and glanced at the person looking at her. Her gaze met a pair of deep, dark eyes. They were surprised, and there was even a trace of tears.

But his astonishment paled in comparison to hers. "You're Manfred?"

Geneva and the other two women quickly followed Glen's instructions without question. They nodded and left the room.

Once they were gone, Glen turned to Kemp. "You've been by Manfred's side for over two years. Have you ever seen him act like this?"

He looked completely lost.

It seemed like the rumors might be true. Manfred had been rumored to be involved with some kind of female spirit, which supposedly made it impossible for him to experience normal emotions for human women.

Kemp, equally puzzled, shook his head. "I'm not sure, Mr. Holland Senior."

"Follow him back to the Atkinson residence. Make sure nothing happens to him," Glen ordered.

"Yes, Mr. Holland Senior," Kemp replied.
