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
Jake was well aware that Alfred despised him. He gnashed his teeth in hatred secretly though he grinned joyously on the surface. He waited outside for a long time until Alfred came out. Only then did he knock on the door and enter Edward’s office. He took a glance at Edward’s expression and said while sniggering, “Edward, I can tell from your face that you haven’t been satisfied properly these days.Edward raised his head and darted a cold glance at Jake but disregarded his remarks. With a gi
Jake was stunned upon hearing that. It took him a moment before he could react to the situation. He pondered shortly before he replied, “That’s fine, Edward. Just wait and see.”As he was speaking, he left the room to thoroughly prepare for this matter. Handling an affair like this was his specialty. It did not take long before he called Edward and said while sniggering, “Edward, the matter has been arranged appropriately. How are you planning to play with her?”Edward reacted indifferently an
Claude turned his head around and looked at her. He sniggered coldly and asked, “Hasn’t that senior family member of yours taught you not to tug and push another person?”Upon saying that, he swung his arm once and walked ahead with long strides without even bothering to take a glance at Estelle. Estelle was still a young woman, after all, and she had never been treated by a man in such a manner. She was embarrassed deeply and her eyes reddened with tears beyond her control. Then, she remembere
