Chapter 398

Liam Sullivan's low laughter whispered by her ear.

"Once we're in bed, I'll just hold you to sleep. I won't touch you."

Vivian Bennett's tense nerves finally relaxed.

She nestled obediently into his embrace.

The bathroom was filled with steam.

The man ultimately couldn't restrain himself.

He pressed her against the cool tiles, taking his fill without restraint.

Vivian was carried out of the bathroom, completely limp.

She glared at him angrily. "Liam Sullivan, you broke your promise! Aren't you afraid of ruining your health with this daily exhaustion?"

Liam chuckled softly and kissed her earlobe.

"I'm afraid my health might fail to satisfy you."

Vivian's cheeks instantly flushed crimson.

How could a man with such insatiable appetite have health issues?

"Who needs you to satisfy me!"

He gently kissed her rosy lips.

"You might not need satisfaction, but I fear you might find me lacking. After forty, I won't be this busy anymore. I'll take good care of you and nurture your health."

Vivian's heart rippled with emotion.

Forty? Could he truly let go of everything he had worked so hard to build?

William White's condition suddenly worsened.

End-stage liver cirrhosis required an urgent second liver transplant.

This was a devastating blow to the White family.

To make matters worse, the news was exposed the very next day.

White Corporation's stock price plummeted once again.

The company teetered on the brink of collapse.

Vivian learned the news from financial reports.

She had intended to ignore it, but Linda White came looking for her.

Linda grasped her hand, tears streaming down her face.

"I know I shouldn't come to your company, but your father's condition is critical. Dr. Smith says he needs immediate surgery, but we can't find a liver donor... We can only rely on you now."

Vivian stood frozen.

It wasn't that she was unwilling, but she remembered their last argument.

"He won't accept my liver."

"We can hide it from him. He doesn't need to know." Linda clutched her hand tightly. "It's just unfair to you."

Vivian remained silent for a long time.

Her eyes were complex and unreadable.

"I know this isn't fair to you, but with White Corporation in this state..." Linda's tears welled up again.

Vivian's heart turned cold.

She was willing to save her father, but she had to do it in this secretive manner.

"Schedule the time and notify me."

Linda wept with joy. "Thank you for being so understanding. I thank you on William's behalf."

Vivian waved her hand with a cold laugh.

"Don't thank me. I'm doing this for my own peace of mind. He may not acknowledge me, but he will always be my father."
