(Speculative area) But let's just assume, without knowing the context, that the naked blonde in Christian's bed was Addison and she wasn't asleep.
Then she would at least know that Christian is having sex with Hutch's wife, playing with her, and that Hutch's possible dismissal was just a pretext? Since Hutch is being transferred to the warehouse department (or something similar), Vivian could eventually take over Hutch's position in the office (customer acquisition, Christian hinted at something like that)? That means she would have to work with Addison.
That could develop into a storyline that affects both of them. The exciting question, of course, is which direction that would take. In any case, it would have good potential and material. The image sparks a certain imagination. SCS is particularly good at this.
Too much of that is a long shot for me. I would say it's likely that it was Addison in Christian's bed, but that's largely because we have no one else to suggest it might be, so the alternative is "just a random blonde" or my personal favourite "Addison's mother/Christian's sister-in-law". If it
is Addison, I like the idea of her not actually being asleep there and hearing the conversation, and what that could bring to the story - especially as the next update is largely going to focus on Hutch. There was enough in that conversation to give it away from just Christian's side (presuming she wouldn't also be able to hear what Vivian was saying) - he talks about them having sex using words that are explicity clear, so there'd be no assumption needed, and he also uses Hutch's name once. He does also talk about Vivian doing work for him as a consultant, so there's a possibility that Addison (if it was her) could put two and two together when Vivian turns up a couple of days later at the office, although I think her "attitude" was already there before Vivian even introduced herself/said what she was there for, so maybe this was not the cause. If not though, as soon as Vivian does turn up at the office in her role as consultant, Addison (in this scenario) would be able to put it together, even if she doesn't know what Hutch's wife looks like (no photos on his desk, etc.)
For the rest of it though, Hutch is changing job roles, but he's going to be staying the office, I think - there's certainly no need for him being moved to the warehouse, as he wouldn't be in a good place to do his job there. Vivian is "hired" as an outside consultant, meaning she is not an employee, and would therefore not take a place in the office. If she
was to work in the office, she would almost certainly have to leave her role as a teacher, and she is unlikely to do that, unless working for Christian is stable enough and lucrative enough to make that risk worth taking. While the money is good compared to her teacher pay, I don't think Vivian (at the moment) wants or expects the consultancy work to go on long term, so it would be a mistake to leave her teaching role for it, I believe.
No previews in Chapter 2 kinda sucked. Hopefully Chapter 3 gives us something to hype over.
I sort of get it, because the previews in 0.2 were not just for 0.4 (or Ch2, as it became) - they were for later in the game as well. So I see it as something just in the initial release to whet your appetite for the rest of the game. Dev has said a few times that he already had a good number of Ch3 renders done even before releasing 0.2 (now known as Ch1), so he already had some "future" renders to be able to share, whereas he might not have been in the same position when releasing Ch2 without spoiling upcoming events or just showing us stuff we've basically already seen.
Of course, I think all of us would have liked the preview renders to be a thing though, and for Ch2 to have had a bunch of them at the end as well.
I was curious, so I did some looking and there were 14 previews at the end of 0.2, and if I'm not mistaken, only two of them ended up being in Ch2. Between 0.2 and Ch2, I reckon there were about 16 previews (plus some other images stated as not previews, or teases as "are they/aren't they?") and I think about 12 of those made it into Ch2, a couple of them with some slight alterations (e.g., the preview of Vivian with cum on her back is not in the game, all such shots in the game have Rain in the picture as well). So theoretically, we have something like 15 or 16 previews for the rest of the game already, and a possible idea of how many previews we might get in the lead up to Ch3 (there is no science at all to that last part, as there was no uniformity to timeframe or number of previews released, and they did also start up not long at all after 0.2 was released, whereas we have had no word since Ch2 came out).
