Chapter 52

I pretended not to hear him. However, I felt a tight grip around my chin the

next instant.

“Open your eyes.” His voice was cold and commanding.

I did as he said, albeit reluctantly.

“Look at me.”

I refused to meet his gaze. “Just do whatever it is that you want…”

Liam tightened his grip on my chin so hard that it made me grimace in pain. I

cast a glare in his direction.

“You should be looking at me. That way, you wouldn’t be thinking about some

other men.”

I snapped at him, “Were all of your women thinking about other men while

they were in bed with you?”

My question prompted Liam as the man got on top of me and stripped me

off.

Finally, when he was done, Liam carried me into the bathroom and washed

me himself.

He’s being strangely gentle today. It’s probably because the company stocks

plunged when news of the scandal came out.

I was still feeling wary even after Liam had put me back in bed. He said, “Get

dressed and come out for dinner.”

It was almost eight at night when I entered the dining room. On the balcony,

Liam was having a smoke as he spoke on the phone.

Before I knew it, I had tiptoed over and stood next to the balcony entrance to

eavesdrop on him.

“I’m staying over at the company for the night… No. I don’t even want to hear

her name. It’s all because of her that the stocks are dropping… You should

rest early. Good night.”

I treaded quickly and quietly toward the dining table and took a seat. Then, I

took out my phone to check the news.

“L.M shares dropped more than 5 percent at the close of today’s session. The

company lost a market cap of nearly 80 billion dollars!”

Apart from the news about Liam’s company, I could also replace more and more

news about the scandal on the internet.

Is Anna still trying to circulate the news online? She would usually stop by

now

Suddenly, someone yanked the phone out of my hands.

Liam sat in the chair next to mine. He turned off my phone and put it down on

the table. “Don’t use your phone for the time being.”

“I haven’t agreed to your conditions.”

“I’ll have to force you then.” He gave me a sidelong glance and scooped

some fish onto my plate.

I took a piece of lotus root and had a bite. “I don’t want any of your shares.

However, if you insist on giving me money, I prefer that you give it in cash.”

Liam remained silent as he focused on picking out tiny bones from the fish.

I continued, “I just need two million dollars in cash.”

Liam lifted his gaze from his plate. “I gave you that much money before, didn’t

1?”

“I tore the check back then.”

He probably never thought that I would really tear the check. It’s

understandable. Who in their right mind would tear a check that was worth

two million dollars?

“What do you need the money for?”

Chapter 52 My Sweet Vivl

“I’ll use it to buy stuff.”

“What kind of stuff?” Liam’s eyes seemed to bore into me as he fixed a

piercing gaze on me.

“I’ll buy stuff like bags, jewelry, clothes…”

“You’re in charge of a project that the Nyra Corporation is working on, right?”

Liam said, “A project that uses AR technology to create holographic images

of the deceased. The project is not too difficult, and you can even present it

as your graduation project.”

I did not expect him to bring up this topic.

He kept his gaze on me. “The minimum budget required to run the project is

estimated at five million dollars. Yet, you’re going to spend two million dollars

on bags now?

I replied, “That project is canceled.”

Chapter 52 My Sweet Vivi

I learned about my condition three months ago, and I was told that I had at

most two years left to live. Eventually, I decided to use the little time I had to

realize my dream.

I’ve always wished to have a chance to meet with my mother once more. I

want to talk to her and feel her hugging me one more time.

I figured the only way I could achieve that is through the use of technology.

While bionic robots were clearly the better choice, that particular technology

required a stupendous amount of time and money to be completed. In the

end, I chose AR technology instead.

Back then, I had enough money to conduct the project. However, when the

Nyra Corporation was facing another financial crisis and I was informed that I

only had six months to live, I gave up on the project eventually.

Just then, Liam reached out and grabbed my wrist. Then, he gently pulied me

toward him and made me sit on his lap.

Liam picked up his spoon and tried to feed me some fish. However, I was

reminded of how he had fed Rina in the morning, and I immediately pushed

his hand away.

I could hear Liam chuckling quietly behind me. Still, I dropped my gaze and

ignored him in defiance.

Liam put his hand under my chin and lifted my face to his.

‘Sometimes, I can’t tell if you’re just this cute and naive, or if you’re that good

at seducing men.” There was a trace of delight in Liam’s eyes. “Why don’t you

tell me which of that is true?”

I tried to squirm free from his embrace. “Let me go first!”

“No.” Liam had both hands circled around my waist now. “Finish your dinner if

you’re still hungry. If you’re feeling full already, we’ll go back to your room

then. I replace your bed very comfy.”

Upon hearing those words, I could feel my face burning up and my heart

racing.

Inwardly, I was repulsed by the fact that Liam was doing the same things he

had done for Rina to me now. Yet, I couldn’t seem to stop myself from

reacting like that to his words.

Just then, Liam leaned next to my ear and whispered in a sweet voice, “My

sweet Vivi.”

His hot breath tickled the skin on my neck.

“You look so adorable when you blush like that.”

I was too stunned to speak.

Is he doing all this because he’s worried that I won’t help explain to the public

about the photos and prove his innocence?

I already told him that I would do whatever that’s necessary.

While I was lost in thought, I heard Liam speak in a calm voice, “How many

men have you allowed in your bed before this?”

I snapped to my senses after hearing his question. Then, I turned my eyes

toward Liam.

“Hm?” A faint smile played across Liam’s lips. However, there was a dark, icy

look in his eyes. “Or am I the first one sleeping on it?”

Liam pressed his palm against the spot where his name was tattooed on my

body. The warmth seeping through the cloth seemed to make that part of

my skin burn and ache a little.

I tried to avoid his touch but to no avail. “You’re the first.”

Liam flashed a smile at me upon hearing my response. Then, he planted a

soft kiss on my cheek.
