You left Ian's apartment and climbed into a waiting silver car. Vivian was sitting in the driver's seat, looking at you. She smiled, her dimples showing, she said:

"I could say you're my rival in love, yet here I am helping you. Quite peculiar, isn't it?"

Both Vivian and you were love rivals, an odd pair of rivals. Initially, Vivian and you didn't know each other at all.

Before, you were rescued after being kidnapped for 7 years, forced to sell your body, and married off to an idiot. Enduring so much hardship, you finally returned to your family. Ian was your fiancé and a childhood friend who had secretly liked you for a long time. During your absence, Vivian pursued Ian. Just as Ian was about to accept her feelings, you returned. Ian immediately abandoned her and wanted to marry you.

Despite her pain, Vivian chose to let him go and move forward until Ian realized he liked her and pursued her again while still in a relationship with you. Vivian looked down on Ian, choosing to help you escape from that awful man.
