Why Should I

When her plan failed, Vivian immediately changed her mind and gave up her original plan. She decided to approach Caroline.

She could tell that Caroline was not as cowardly and incompetent as the rumors said. On the contrary, she was not a simple person. That was why Edwin was temporarily lost in her trap, and she seemed to have placed her suspicious eyes on her.

So Vivian thought of playing along and admitting that she did what she did last night, so that she could approach Caroline in a half-true and half-false way.

Her goal was not to gain Caroline's trust. She only needed to make Caroline unable to tell her true appearance and true purpose, so that Caroline's attention would be distracted. That was enough.

However, Vivian did not expect Caroline to be so much more powerful than she had imagined. In just a few words, Caroline was able to detect the problem and discover her disguise.
