Chapter 215

Vivian struggled desperately.

She could not break free from his grasp.

Warm water droplets splashed onto her face.

Her long, dark hair clung wetly to her neck.

It outlined her alluring curves.

Her eyes widened in panic.

"Let me go!" she cried out, humiliated and angry.

Liam Sullivan breathed heavily.

His voice was hoarse. "Vivian, I can refrain from touching you for now."

"But you must help me..."

Vivian slumped weakly against his chest.

Her consciousness gradually blurred.

Intense shame washed over her.

The memory remained vivid after returning to the hotel.

She fell onto the bed in frustration.

She cursed Liam Sullivan countless times in her mind.

"Vivian, why are you back so late?"

Emily Davis had already gone to bed.

She turned on the light, asking in surprise.

She had assumed Vivian wouldn't return tonight.

"I..." Vivian opened her mouth.

Her cheeks felt burning hot.

She didn't know how to explain.

She couldn't say she went to the hot springs with the big boss.

Just the thought made her heart race.

Emily studied her, teasing. "Were you on a date?"

Vivian froze.

Emily smiled meaningfully. "Don't pretend. Your expression gives you away."

"You must be in a relationship."

"..."

"I didn't expect him to win you over so quickly?" Emily's eyes sparkled.

"Why didn't you stay together tonight?"

"I'm not in a relationship!" Vivian denied urgently.

Dating Liam Sullivan?

How was that possible?

"If you're not dating, why do you look so radiant?" Emily laughed suggestively.

"Your eyes are sparkling."

Vivian instinctively touched her face.

Was it really that obvious?

"Alright, since you want to keep it secret, I won't pry." Emily yawned.

She lay back down. "We have to return tomorrow. Get some sleep."

"..."

Vivian took a shower in the bathroom.

Emily was already asleep when she came out.

She tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.

Was she happy?

Not at all.

Tonight's events only increased her pressure.

"Ding—"

Her phone suddenly chimed.

It was a text message from Liam Sullivan.

"Ride back with me tomorrow?"

Vivian's heart tightened.

She quickly replied. "No need. I'll take the company bus with my colleagues."

Who knew what would happen if they were alone together?

"Still angry?" Liam sent another message.

Vivian hesitated for a moment. "No."

"Then add me on WeChat."

Liam replied finally.

Vivian saw a new friend request pop up on WeChat.
