It was an international call from Spain. The person on the phone was polite as he reported his findings to Edward, “Mr. Levin, I just got in touch with Miss Cassie. According to her, she and Mr. Fairdew broke up not long after they left Alicante. She has no idea where he is right now.” The dots were connecting, and soon enough a picture formed in his head. At long last, he saw the light why Vivian would have rushed into the bathroom and soak herself in her tears after meeting Renne. His counte
It went without saying that he knew what she was talking about. However, he didn’t expect her to confess everything to him, and her sudden frankness took him by complete surprise that his brain went blank. He did not know how to react, and it took him quite a while to come around. Lifting his hand, he collected her hair behind her ears as the question rolled off his tongue in a deep, hoary voice, “What are you up to again, Vee?” She smacked his hand away, lowered her head, and said, “Don’t tou
Vivian was truly touched by how much her friend was willing to do for her, but at the same time, she hated her boldness and recklessness. She grabbed Renne's hand and snarled coldly, “Can you stop sticking your nose into my affair already? It’s very dangerous. Edward Levin is a killer. He’ll kill you if he finds out that you’re helping me again! Renne, you’re not a heroine, and this isn’t something that you should involve yourself in. You can’t save me. You will only be a drag!” Renne was take
“I won’t be able to live without you, Viv!” Liam interjected. His eyes had turned bloodshot as he spoke in a husky voice, “The very thought of leaving you to that b*stard is enough to drive me mad. Do you know how tough it is for me to keep myself sane? I have to fight the drug everyday, and there isn’t a day that goes by without thinking about you. No matter how painful it was, I braved through every single one of them. I kept going through our memories even though my brain hurt as if somebody
He held her hand and walked outside. Before long, she stopped walking all of a sudden. He turned around and realized that she was crying. She stood there and looked at him. Then, she said with a trembling voice, “Edward, he has the records of your plastic surgery which you did in Spain. Moreover, Renne has gone to the Konstantins’ residence to take that file which contains your fingerprint data. I’ll give these two things to you. Let them go, please.” He was well aware of those things which sh
Stunned, his expression darkened. He never foresaw that she would do such a thing just to take revenge on him. She would actually take such a big step in revealing her most painful scar in front of everybody so that he would be humiliated deeply. However, what she was unaware of was the fact that he was not afraid of humiliation. He just couldn’t bear to see her hurting herself. He would rather choose to have her hurt him instead. Edward pursed his lips as he was filled with a deep fury. He co
Edward was quiet for a short while. Then, he nodded.When the others learned that Jake was home, they came to welcome him especially, so Jake stopped talking about his Southeast Asian updates and turned to drink wine with them. Edward followed suit. However, when a woman tried to approach Edward, Jake would immediately come to his rescue and drive her away before he could say anything. Jake said, “Get lost! Don’t come near Ed. If you leave a lingering scent of your perfume on him, my sister-in-
However, he didn’t notice her emotions. He moved his lips slowly up her body and stopped around her neck for a moment before approaching her exquisite face. He called out in a deep voice, “Vee.” Barely before he could kiss her lips, Vivian stretched her hands out to stop him. “That’s enough!” She pushed him aside harshly without caring about his shock. She freed herself from his embrace and stayed away from him as she said coldly, “If you cannot suppress your desires, go and find someone else.
