On the other hand, she looked at the furious Edward calmly and said softly, “Sean Jackson, do you really think that I fear death? No, I’m not afraid of death. In my perception, it takes more courage for me to live.”He clenched his teeth in hatred. He had never loathed her as much as he did now. He stared at her and uttered the words with perfect clarity as he said, “Vivian, don’t even think about it.”‘Don’t even think about it, huh?’ She could not help smiling as she felt her consciousness s
Vivian only stayed for two days in the hospital. On the afternoon of the third day, she was discharged from the hospital and moved into Edward’s condo. Her mother had called her several times, but she dared not let her know she was injured. In the end, she had to come up with an excuse to explain why she could not go home these few days.Sitting on the couch next to the window, Edward listened as Vivian made up a story about how she decided to pay a visit to her colleague’s hometown in Guizhou
Vivian felt he was acting strangely and she began to feel worried. She was fully aware that he had a deep obsession with her body. That was why she had said that she wanted to take a shower. She wanted to seduce him and bring out the monster in him. She knew he was still angry with her. Therefore, rather than having him throw a tantrum in other ways, it was better for him to vent his steam through something more intimate. Never did she expect that he would be able to restrain himself so well.S
Her reaction was too real, or perhaps, he never expected that a woman was still able to play mind games at a time like this. Delighted, he propped himself up and climbed on top of her. He pressed his forehead against hers and teased as his voice was filled with longing, “You ungrateful little thing, go around and ask when have I ever treated anybody with such patience before?” Vivian let out a long sigh of relief inwardly, but she dared not to let her defenses slack. As such, she continued to
Wade could not be sure about their relationship, so he did not make any remark. He waited for a while, but Edward did not give him any orders. After a slight hesitation, he continued, “Mr. Levin, Master Levin summoned you back to the Levin Estate earlier. He already knew about the incident that happened at Tipsy Tonight the day before yesterday.” Edward raised his head to look at Wade after this piece of news. It took several minutes for the information to set in before he sneered contemptuous
Wade answered respectfully, “Understood, Mr. Levin.”He retreated from Edward’s study carefully. Just as he was about to turn around and go downstairs, he did not expect to see the door of the opposite room open. Vivian strolled out of the room dressed only in a nightgown. She seemed to be startled when she looked up to see him and she covered the loose edge of her nightgown as she greeted him in a slightly awkward manner, “Hello, Wade.”Wade remained expressionless just as before. His manner
He was stunned for a moment. He looked at her silently for a while before he suddenly asked her, “Do you want to run away?”Vivian curled her lips into a smile with great effort and answered truthfully, “I’ve always wanted to escape even before I had this dream.”Edward looked at her and could not help laughing in spite of himself after a moment. He seemed to have forgotten about his embarrassment when he had to retract his palm earlier, so he extended his arm to her once again and said win it
She considered it for a moment and asked in all apparent seriousness, “Things that a gangster likes perhaps? Drinking, fighting, car racing? Uh, and also fooling around with women.”Edward was stunned for a moment upon hearing that. He felt like he was at a loss as to whether to cry or to laugh. “You must’ve been watching too many television shows, haven’t you?”She chuckled shyly and said, “Actually, I envied those people when I was in junior high. They were carefree and unfettered. I used to
