"Hehe, officers, you've finally arrived. I'm the one who extended the invitation." Disregarding the bewildered onlookers, Vivian approached them wearing a gentle smile."Oh, so you're the one who summoned us to apprehend a few individuals, correct?" Inquired one of the six men, who appeared to be the leader.Vivian burst into laughter, seemingly oblivious to the mention of arrest. "Certainly, that's why I brought you here," she declared emphatically.Gasp!Could it be that when she spoke of their young master facing consequences, she was alluding to his potential arrest? How audacious!The faces of the two subordinates had lost all color at that moment. If their young master were to be arrested, they knew they would face consequences from the young master's father for allowing his son to create chaos outside. "Hey, what's the meaning of all this? Why would you call the police for such a minor issue?" Like his subordinates, the young master was also frightened.He dreaded the thought
Liam's smile held a bitter edge as he recognized Vivian's taunting. Despite his earlier comments about Vivian making a fool of herself, the tables had turned, and now Liam found himself in a precarious position. Refusing to yield, Liam continued his plea. "Please, I'm willing to follow your orders, but spare my family from harm." The pallor on his face deepened, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor. His father's revelation about the family business being on the brink of ruin had left Liam desperate for forgiveness. Vivian scoffed dismissively, "Hmph! You're wasting your time. I won't show mercy to someone as worthless as you." Those staring were confused about the exchange of words between the duo, but what they were certain about was that Liam had messed with the wrong people. They shook their heads, casting pitiful glances at him. Liam's two subordinates, mirroring his distress, began to panic as they gauged the severity of the issue from Liam's expressions. Liam's mind wa
After repeatedly checking his hair, he finally ceased with a slight smile. Returning to Vivian's side, he presented a composed demeanor. "Have you checked your hair? Can you now see I'm not joking?" Vivian asked with excitement. "Yes, yes. Now, let's go handle the payments." With that statement, they both proceeded to the cashier's table. Nolan insisted on settling the bill and declined Vivian's attempt to pay, revealing he had a substantial amount of money on his card. With the bills paid, Vivian and Nolan exited the salon shop together. As they emerged, an exhilarating loud voice reached their ears. "Vivian!" Nolan and Vivian, both taken aback, pivoted towards the source of the voice. A bit of distance away, two males and two females approached with evident excitement, slowly closing in on Vivian and Nolan. Nolan withheld his words, pursing his lips. The familiar smiles on their faces indicated they were acquainted with Vivian. "Ah, you all made it." Upon their nearing pr
The man stood gaping with shock and surprise, so ensnared in his disbelief that he couldn't move for a few moments."You…!" It felt as if he had been electrified, only regaining his senses after a few minutes.He deeply scrutinized Tara's outfits. "What did I just hear you say?" His tone reflected disbelief.Initially overwhelmed by emotions, now in his normal senses, the resolute disbelief in his voice was apparent. He couldn't fathom that the amount he heard was the cost of the outfits."Hmph," Tara scoffed. "Do you think I have the time to exchange lies with you? Compensate me right now!"The irritation in Tara's eyes intensified. She was determined to make him pay, regardless of the consequences.Those acquainted with Tara knew she had never been treated with such disdain. All the anger and disrespect thrown at her would only dissipate if she taught him a lesson."You brat! How dare you?" The man was about to lash out at her due to her harsh and dismissive tones.Before he could t
"What... what did you just say?" He wanted to shout, but he restrained himself as he spoke softly."I'll say it again, rub your body in the mud for a good five minutes!" Nolan reiterated, with a lazy tone."Why would I do that? My car only splashed a little mud on you all, so why should mine be treated differently?" He felt mistreated as he expressed his disagreement."We don't care. You have to follow my order or, better yet, compensate us for our ruined attire!" Nolan raised his voice.Tara and the others didn't intervene to stop Nolan. Initially confused, after some contemplation, they decided it was an appropriate way to retaliate against the disdain the man had shown. "I refuse..." Just as the man was on the verge of declining once more, his shoulder was firmly grasped."Boss, please reconsider." The driver spoke anxiously, knowing his boss was about to unleash his anger again.The man clenched his fist in frustration, visibly trembling with anger. Despite this, he pondered ove
The driver felt a surge of panic in his seat, hesitant to contemplate much before unlocking the car and getting out.If Jeff repeats his words more than twice, it signifies his seriousness.Having stepped out of the car to persist in his plea, he found himself speechless as the car abruptly zoomed away, leaving him watching it speed out of sight.He had gotten down from the car rushly with the intent of pleading while standing, but who would have thought Jeff won't even wait to hear a word from him. …….While Jeff and his driver endured a challenging situation, Nolan and the rest remained composed. The onlookers had already left, having witnessed the resolution of the commotion."Nolan, your approach to dealing with someone like him is truly impressive," Carly exclaimed cheerfully.The others nodded in agreement, their attention absorbed by the phones in their hands. Upon Jeff's departure, they took out their phones and were surprised to find his mud-soaked image trending on the inte
Dave's expression turned slightly sour. "Why should I be bothered about her feeling on cloud nine? I don't involve myself in the affairs of playboys!" His tone lacked any hint of warmth.Carly's enthusiastic eyes dimmed at Dave's words. She had anticipated hearing something positive, not his dismissive remarks.Just as she was on the verge of expressing her frustration, Vivian's chiming voice intervened."I agree with Dave. I genuinely don't understand why so many students in our school are obsessing over the proposal news. What's so special about him?" Vivian questioned disapprovingly. "I even had to inquire with Nolan if he knew anything about this so-called Hansel because everyone seems to be preoccupied talking about him."Tara exclaimed abruptly, "The only reason why that girl, the so-called queen bee in Nolan's school, would agree to date Hansel must be because she's foolish." She didn't want to believe a normal sensible girl will agree to date a guy that's fooling with other gi
When they arrived home, both of them wearily made their way into the mansion."Nolan, today was enjoyable, right?" Vivian plopped down on the sofa beside her, inquiring."Yes, it was interesting. Despite the salon incident threatening to ruin my mood, I still felt okay after having the last laugh," Nolan chuckled, taking a seat."Even the mud splashing could've spoiled our day, but your clever punishment turned things around. I like that," Vivian remarked."True, arrogant brats shouldn't go unpunished. Being lenient only encourages their foolish behavior," Nolan said.Vivian laughed. "It's amusing to think about the embarrassment that the idiot faced while covered in mud."Nolan smiled softly. "It's late; I'm heading to bed now." He stood up, leaving the living room."Goodnight, Nolan," Vivian said, also feeling tired.After a day outdoors, it wasn't surprising that exhaustion had caught up with them. They both retired to their rooms, exchanging goodnight wishes.In his room, Nolan co
