I'm Your Sister, Brother Chow
Chapter 53: Tricking Him Successfully
Vivian's body suddenly stiffened. She clenched the doorknob in her hand and tried hiding behind the door.
No wonder Chow had left Ethan behind in the office today.
He had been out on a date. It hadn't been for work.
"I still have a lot of work to do today," Chow said, his voice a lot less cold than Vivian remembered. "I'll send someone to pick you up tonight."
It was just that Chow's voice sounded void of all emotions just like a robot.
"Fine. In that case, let me wait in your office while the chauffeur arrives, okay?"
Whenever she was with Chow, Celine always behaved rather coquettishly.
They really weren't any different from the other couples out there.
This time, even if Chow didn't verbally agree to it, he still hadn't rejected her anyway.
The door to the chairman's office next door opened with a click. The two figures eventually disappeared behind the thick steel door.
Vivian staggered in her footsteps. She gripped onto the doorknob even harder, as if her entire life depended on it.
If she didn't do that, she really didn't know if she could walk out of the door unscathed today.
Ethan hadn't called the driver yet. Of course, he saw everything with his own two eyes.
He put his phone away with a worried look. "Miss, are you—"
Ethan wanted to ask if she was okay.
But it seemed that asking this question now would be rather inappropriate.
Vivian forced herself to smile, but her smile looked even sadder than when she was crying.
"I-I think that the driver won't be available after all. I'll just go home by myself," Vivian said.
If it was just a moment ago, Ethan might not have agreed to her request. How could he feel at ease, especially after what he'd just witnessed?
"Wait, I can give you a ride," Ethan said. He was still a gentleman after all.
Still, he couldn't help feeling a little awkward since the situation had come to this.
Vivian turned her face away and shook her head. "Let me go back by myself, please. I'm begging you," she said in a choked voice.
She didn't want anyone to see her in such a sorry state right now.
Ethan's hand paused mid-air for a long time before he finally put it down with a sigh. "Alright. Be careful on the way home, Miss. Call me if you need anything."
Vivian nodded and said nothing else.
She was afraid that she'd start sobbing as soon as she opened her mouth.
