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
Claude came running in no time. He did not look at all comfortable with this setting. He lowered his gaze and asked her, “Miss Carraway, you wanted to see me?”Due to her personal experiences, Vivian was extremely sensitive when it came to communicating with another person to the point of feeling beleaguered. She quickly noticed the irregularity in Claude’s behavior. As she talked to him about the New Year dinner, she kept an eye on his expression. When she saw that he was not on his guard, she
Vivian did not know why he was bringing this up, but she nodded slowly. “That is the case.”“I was envious when I heard about it as well.” Claude seemed to be talking haphazardly. He took a deep breath and appeared to have mustered some courage before he continued, “I think that it’s not easy to have such a relationship in this current society. We should cherish it.”“Thanks.” She could tell that this was not all he wanted to say. Her smile gradually faded and she asked him, “What’re you trying
The black car was parked outside the university as usual. Vivian only noticed Edward sitting in the back of the car when she put one foot into the vehicle. She stiffened albeit it only being for one split second. Then, she sat down.Edward glanced at her, then nonchalantly tossed her a paper bag. “Put this on.”She opened the bag and looked inside—it was a black minidress and a pair of black stilettos. Without a word, she placed the bag between them and turned her head to look out of the windo
The car had arrived outside a deeply obscure clubhouse. It looked ordinary and unremarkable on the outside, but upon stepping inside, it was like entering a completely different world. The section that Edward had led her into was extremely luxurious, sumptuous, and majestic like a palace. Despite being dimly lit, it glittered everywhere as its shiny, mirror-like floors reflected its brilliant lights and vibrant colors.Everyone stood up when Edward walked in. The word “Mr. Levin” rang aloud ove
