Vivian had seen this person before when Edward had brought her to Tipsy Tonight the last time. Judging from his attire, she speculated that he must be the manager of Tipsy Tonight. As such, she leaned forward, grabbed him by his collar, and snarled into his ear, “I’ll be straight with you. I guess you already know why I am here. It won’t be a good sight if I make a scene here, so why don’t you do me a favor and tell me where Edward Levin is? I’ll go and look for him myself. I’ll close the door,
Perhaps, she could even take her chance once more. Anyhow, the situation could not worsen anymore, anyhow. It had only taken a moment for her to change her mind. The anger on Vivian’s face vanished and she cracked into a spurious smile to answer his question with a question. “What am I doing? Whatever you want me to do, I’ll do it.”The woman actually refused to acknowledge her fault despite facing imminent death. She still had the courage to try to be clever with him, much to Edward’s anger an
Edward leaned forward with his arms propping up his body against the back of the sofa to trap her. He enunciated his words slowly as he asked, “Who do you think you are? How are you going to save her just by coming here yourself? With that ridiculous trifle intelligence of yours or with your identity as my woman? With my approval for you to stab Baldie’s hand? Or with my putting up with you when you took Noelle away today?”His lips maintained his smirk all this time, yet she could see the grim
Edward stopped for a long while before he looked toward Vivian with a faint mocking smile that lasted a moment. He asked her softly, “So, this is what you’re counting on for real, right?”The police that rushed over were actually made up of two groups of officers. The first group arrived after Claude Pointdexter reported the case while the other group was from the special police force. Madam Konstantin had called her deceased son’s old colleague to seek help in her panic. Upon learning that the
Claude blushed scarlet and tried to defend himself, but Vivian gave him a nudge from the side. She lowered her head and admitted her mistake to the police. “I’m sorry, sir. It’s our mistake for messing up the facts. We didn’t do this on purpose.”Almost no one would believe her but the police could see that Edward did not have the intention to press forward with the case and they didn’t want to cause more trouble, so they gave Vivian and Edward a serious lecture before they called it a night. E
Madam Konstantin was furious, anxious, and also feeling guilty for what happened to Vivian. Her body was shaking so profusely that she was about to fall soon. She disregarded the people’s consolation and persuasion as she looked towards Vivian walking out behind them and she said shakily, “Miss Carraway. It’s my fault. I didn’t teach my granddaughter well enough that she’s caused you this trouble.”Vivian resented Estelle in her heart to a certain extent naturally. Still, what was the purpose o
Edward was preparing to get into a meeting when he received Vivian’s text message. He took a glance at the text message and was stunned for a moment. Then, he cracked into a mocking smile and tossed the phone on the meeting table before he signaled Alfred to start the meeting. The meeting was held to discuss the expansion of Levin Enterprise in the new Western market. The person-in-charge of the project spoke with remarkable fluency in a combination of both the Chinese and the English languages.
He was more at ease upon seeing the color of the blood, yet the anger in his heart grew even more intense. He walked forward and looked at her from above. He sneered and asked her, “Could it be that such the bright, intelligent Miss Carraway is unaware that this suicide method is rather ineffective? Try to cut deeper next time. It will be better if you just severed the artery.”She was actually smiling back at him and she muttered to herself, “No wonder. Every time I cut myself, I only bleed fo
