Chapter 768

Ethan Roscente handed the phone back to Vivian Laurent.

Only then did Vivian notice the live stream still playing on screen. "The broadcast is still on?"

"Mhm." Ethan cleared his throat. "The audience was waiting for you, so I chatted with them for a bit."

Vivian scrolled through the feed. "What did you talk about?"

The comments exploded instantly:

"Ethan said he likes you!"

"He admitted it himself!"

"Ethan said he loves you!"

Vivian's head snapped up. "What did you tell them?"

"Nothing much." Ethan avoided her gaze.

She shoved the phone in his face. "Then what's this?"

His ears turned pink. "Just stating facts."

Vivian stared at him.

She regretted giving him her phone. In just half an hour, netizens had already photoshopped their wedding pictures. The chat was flooded with demands for them to "get married on the spot."

The live stream's viewer count kept rising. On camera, Vivian's bare face glowed with a natural radiance, her long lashes curled perfectly—not a single pore visible.

"Dr. Laurent's beauty is lethal!"

"A hundred times prettier than Zoe Chamberlain!"

"Brains and beauty—I'm obsessed!"

Vivian addressed the camera. "We're going to eat now, so we'll end the stream."

The chat erupted in protest:

"Don't stop!"

"Let us watch you eat!"

"Please!"

After a moment's hesitation, Vivian kept the broadcast running.

"What do you want to eat?" Ethan asked.

"Noodles." Her eyes lit up. "You can't get authentic ones in Eudora."

He raised an eyebrow. "Just that?"

"Just that."

The noodle shop near the hospital buzzed with chatter. Vivian ordered tomato egg noodles, then suddenly reached out. "Let me borrow your phone."

Ethan handed it over. Vivian dialed a number.

"Nathan?" A man's voice answered—Nathan Clementson.

Since Vivian's phone was still live streaming, she had to use Ethan's to make the call.
