Soon, she finished packing her stuff. Before she left the house, she turned around and took one last look at her warm abode. Liam would be back in another five hours. If she chose to stay, she could throw herself into his arms and weep her fill. She could ask for his help, and he could help her to shoulder her pain and despair. She was confident that he would never let her face her troubles alone. After all, he was her most solid reliance, her safe haven. However, if she dragged him into this
Wade knew that Edward was an inveterate smoker deep down although he had never seen him smoke before. Piqued by his curiosity, he said, “Mr. Levin, although cigarettes are bad for your health, it doesn’t hurt to have one or two sticks once in a while. The reason you were prohibited from smoking was due to your poor health condition, Mr. Levin. But your health has improved significantly since then, so I guess it is fine for you to enjoy a stick right now.“ Edward was genuinely stunned to hear
Claude nodded, but he still walked her to the door. His persistence put her on the spot. The last thing she wanted him to know was that she was staying in the hotel. Left with no other options, she just kept walking forward with him watching her from behind. In the end, she took a detour around the street with the meal box before returning to the hotel. On Wade’s monitor screen, the green dot representing Vivian’s location was making a square as well. Since he could not make head or tail of
Edward was getting out of the car. When he heard the question, he froze for a second. He turned to Wade and ordered via a condescending tone, “Just wait here!” He went up the building and stood in front of Vivian’s room. He could hear the sound of the television inside the room. When he knocked on the door, she answered. Then, a series of footsteps pattered along to the door. She did not open the door straight away but raised her voice and asked, “Who is it?” “It’s me, Edward Levin,” he repl
Vivian honestly did not mind Edward’s mocking comments. After being hurt that way, these words had no effect on her anymore. It was akin to being dragged away by the enemy every now and then to be brutally beaten and tortured. After an experience like that, you would not mind being bitten by a mosquito or two.She had one hand on the door as she regarded him with a cold look in her eyes. She had no intention of letting him in.Edward laughed. He pushed her away rudely and walked right into the r
Surprise was registered on Edward’s face. He looked up at Vivian. When she saw the panic in her eyes, he raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why is your phone under the bed?”At this point, she had no choice but to calm herself and answered his question drily. “Maybe I dropped it while I was changing just now. I might’ve kicked it under the bed.”“Oh?” Edward narrowed his eyes and said, “Then, you should take it, or you’ll miss the call.”Since he was suspicious, she had to pick the phone up in fron
Her capable girl shook with laughter when she heard this. She spoke with a coquettish voice, “Oh, Miss Moore, stop it! You’re making me nervous.”Jasmine reached out and patted the gorgeously dressed girl’s cheeks. She offered her some encouragement. “Go! I’ll be waiting for you here in the car. If you can make me wait here for a whole night, I’ll admit that you’ve got skills!”Just as the girl got out of the car, she suddenly asked, “Miss Moore, you haven’t told me about Mr. Levin’s type!”Jasm
Vivian stayed in the hotel for five days. She was only bold enough to go home on Sunday night. When she entered, Liam was surfing the internet in his study. He heard the creak of the door and went out to check. With his hand rubbing his neck, he leaned against the wall at an angle with a faint smile on his gorgeous face. He said, “I see you still remember the way back.”She stood there at the door, saying nothing as her eyes gradually reddened.Stunned, Liam forgot all about acting cool. He hast
